4. It's unlikely, but not impossible

Monday

Will Iran and Israel let the US out of this war? Will Trump feel the need to take the Iranian coast? Will some other crazy thing happen that calls for response? I'd say the chances of a draft are above 0%, but I only think it works if they are planning to be there like 2 years. Getting everything started and the infrastructure needed to support it would take months.
