I’m genuinely shocked at how weak and incompetent the US Military has looked throughout this entire operation. Iraq and Afghanistan were shit shows, but the US was always able to handle the essentials of logistics and so on. The machine worked, it was just clumsy and hard to steer.
Somewhere in the gap between Afghanistan and Iran, that machine has been left without even basic maintenance.
So from one unjust war that they lost to the other war they lost, they lost another one? Maybe more baby-seeking missiles?
Wait til you hear how they can’t even remove mines even if the Iranians would let them.
Minesweepers got retired before their MCM system works.
That’s the corrupt politics/MIC system.
The politicians keep them in eternal war and make sure they can spend an obscene amount of money on it.
They then spend it on their contractor donors, even if their stuff is useless crap.
Plenty of examples.
