minus-squarepanda_abyss@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up55·2 days agoI don’t think we’ve ever seen the US lose a war so quickly and completely. And I call it losing because they’ve failed at every reasonable objective.

minus-squarepanda_abyss@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up3·16 hours agoThat’s why I wrote every reasonable objective. They can stick around for 20 years blowing stuff up, but you can’t win unless you have some objective.

minus-squarepanda_abyss@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up5·1 day agoMaybe. The fertilizer shortage driven famines and dust bowl haven’t started yet.
minus-square1dalm@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 day agoExactly, if this really all ended now then we all practically got off easy. (Including the Iranian people compared to how bad it could get.)
