Report: U.S. general urges Trump officials to seek 'off-ramp' from Iran war
Hey Watchmen,
An American general telling Washington to find an "off-ramp" from a war with Iran — that's a man who's actually run the numbers, not one of the yes-sir men whispering in the ear of leadership what they want to hear. My friends, I've watched this pattern for a long time: the closer these people get to the real cost of a fight with Iran, the more they start talking about exits instead of victories. And that tells you something — this was never a war anybody sober actually wanted to finish. Shutting the Strait of Hormuz, a "forever war" with no clean end, a global economy that can't absorb the shock — the men in uniform who actually understand logistics know this isn't a six-week operation. It's a six-month-or-longer bleed, and there's no version of it that leaves the region, or the world's oil markets, untouched.
But don't mistake a general's caution for the Almighty's timetable. Elohim is not wringing His hands over Pentagon strategy sessions. Proverbs 19:21 tells us plainly: "There are many devices in a man's heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand." Men can look for off-ramps all they want — postpone, negotiate, kick the can — but they cannot postpone what's written. Iran sits right in the middle of the end-time picture, and every time these tensions spike and then cool, it's not a false alarm, it's a rehearsal. The players are taking their positions even while the cameras are off.
So watch the language coming out of the Pentagon and the White House as closely as you watch the missiles. When the generals start begging for an exit, that's not peace breaking out — that's a sign the pressure is building toward something bigger down the road. Stay in the Word, stay off the news cycle's emotional rollercoaster, and keep your eyes on Jerusalem. Watch, and stay ready.
