The Iran war is still in its early days. Our operations against the Iranian regime have so far been swift and apparently devastating.

But those who remember Iraq know that Saddam Hussein’s conventional forces were destroyed in very quick order by U.S. troops in 2003. The trouble came afterward. Our attempts to stabilize the country, root out terrorists, and prop up an American-friendly regime bogged down into one of the “forever wars” Donald Trump campaigned against during the 2016 election cycle.

Our wars (sorry, “authorized armed conflicts”) in the Middle East didn’t bring us victory, but they did bring us a stream of “refugees” from the same Third World cesspits we were trying (and failing) to reform into proper nations.

We don’t know how the Iran War will end. It could be over in a few weeks, or it could be over by September. Or by September 2036. Regardless of how long it lasts or how devastating it is for Iran, we absolutely cannot take a single “refugee” from this conflict.

According to the Trump administration, we have no intention of bringing over any refugees from this latest conflict in the Middle East.

“It’s safe to say there’s no plan for a wave of new Middle Eastern refugees to the United States of America,” Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said to The Federalist’s Breccan Thies on Thursday.

“The president has pointed out for a long time, there are a lot of countries in the region who would be capable of providing that kind of support if need be. But that’s certainly not something we’re planning on,” he added.
