What pisses me off the most about all this is all the crimes against humanity. But after that, the thing that pisses me off the most is the sheer incompetence. You didn’t think they would hit back? Like you SERIOUSLY DID NOT CONSIDER THAT THEY ALSO HAVE BOMBS?
If there was more competence none of this would have happened. Their incompetence is not stopping them from mulching innocent civilians and it is not stopping them from fucking up global trade and putting billions at risk of starvation by causing the price of energy and fertilizer to skyrocket.
A competent imperial leadership would have perhaps still had the desire to wage full scale war on Iran, but competence would have led them to do at the very least a cost-benefit analysis and conclude that continuing to leverage soft power would have been more in line with the imperial goal of continued global hegemony. This administration’s actions belie a deep seated desperation that is unnecessary and unbecoming. Precisely because, I suspect, they are all painfully aware that they are not qualified for the positions they have found themselves in and that they are doing a terrible job.
The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everyone else, and nobody was going to bomb them. At Rotterdam, London, Warsaw, and half a hundred other places, they put their rather naive theory into operation. They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind.

Classic rookie mistake.

They did. They simply have too much money and materiel to care.
