It’s crazy to think that the greatest military in history is improvising a war in the Middle East. Just think of all the money invested in training, preparation, funding of military institutions of higher learning etc, all to improvise a fukking war in the Middle East in the year of our lord 2026. :heh:

I was a kid during the first Iraq war, but, I can clearly remember watching the news stories of the meticulous planning led by Colin Powell. Even the second Iraq war, which was a huge step down from the professionalism of the first had months of planning ahead of the conflict.

I suppose the military is mirroring the lack of professionalism, ethics, seriousness and competence that we are witnessing in other areas of society. Whether it be the rise of conmen in tech like Elon Musk, politics with Trump, or the gutting of traditional media institutions like 60 Minutes.

We have created a society of people who not only no longer believe in our institutions
but also believe that competence or intelligence isn't "real".
It's like "no one really knows what they're really doing" has become the guiding ethos of our country
and everyone is trying to climb all over each other in order to sneak into a tax bracket they could
never sniff without being a conman.
:laff:

Seeing shyt like this is some clown world shyt and it's exactly why I keep tellin' y'all.
Get your money! Cause it's *definitely* going down hill from here.

Meaning that when they suffer losses and Iranian personnel post the bodies / identities of “white American” looking cats on social media….. Trump is just gonna say yea we lied, we did send American troops.



Or that they gonna send an all 2nd generation immigrant Arabic-American squad of soldiers on a suicide mission? :skip:DEI squads?

All because our government isn't smart enough to notify it's allies whose air space they plan to use to conduct air strikes.

Can we be real about this?

Either their US-made air defense systems are ass, or the government is lying about who those planes down.

This is Kuwait, which has a US Air Force base.

Lightwork guys, any second Iran will be calling for a peace treaty.


I forgot where I read it earlier but essentially the 12 day war spooked israel, they realized then that the iranians was a more equipped military than them which is why they dragged the US into this war. The Iranians settled for diplomacy but they could have leveled israel during that war if they wanted too. The united states wasn't in position to help israel either who was running out of defense ammo

There are multiple bases in Kuwait. I've worked with the Kuwaiti military pre and post-US military training, shear incompetence and fear of targeting and shooting down a craft in their airspace is not a large logical leap.

The US contracted out its military

If you have family in the military, you know what I’m talking about. The army is an unwieldy mess now.
