White House adviser says Iran invasion would be a ‘suicide mission’

White House adviser says Iran invasion would be a ‘suicide mission’ David Sacks, a technology adviser to President Donald Trump, has defended the memorandum of understanding between the United States and Iran, describing it as "a tremendous achievement" and arguing that diplomacy offers a better path than an expanded military conflict. Speaking on the All-In Podcast on Saturday, Sacks dismissed calls for escalation, saying that a ground invasion of Iran would be impractical given the country's size and could require as many as a million troops. Sacks warned that such an operation would be a "suicide mission" and urged policymakers to give the agreement an opportunity to succeed.
