Key Notes
diagnosis

diagnosis
Jiang says a war with Iran would be a disaster because America lacks domestic manufacturing and because Americans do not naturally understand Iran as an enemy.
diagnosis
Jiang says a full-scale invasion of Venezuela would be complete suicide for America because the United States lacks the manufacturing capacity and strategic depth for such a war and cannot control how rival powers would exploit the distraction.
