The US is reportedly preparing to send three more warships and thousands more troops to the Middle East, as Donald Trump called Nato allies “cowards” for not wanting to “help open” the strait of Hormuz, and while fears of the economic damage of the US-Israeli war on Iran continued to grow.
The US is reportedly considering plans to occupy or blockade Iran’s strategically crucial Kharg Island to pressure Tehran to reopen the strait.
The reports from US media organisations emerged as Iran’s military threatened it would “hunt down” officials and military commanders from the US and Israel wherever it could find them in the world, including at tourist destinations.
You know that famous USSR sniper from WW2 with 309 confirmed kills. Irans entire resistance is like that but with drones.
I know we clown on Trump for saying that their “navy” and “air force” are gone. But, it’s really just exposing the stupidity of him and the way his generals are reporting this war to him to keep him happy. He’s not really “wrong” about that if you’re talking about it from the perspective of traditional warfare. And so he is being told the positives. Because, much like fascist leaders of the past, any negative or realistic report will be considered a failure on the one reporting it.
The US is currently the equivalent of the world’s strongest and best military that has a Calvary feared around the world.
The Calvary does an amazing job riding on horseback and slaughtering what foot soldiers they can find. Killing civilians along the way to create fear in the population.
“The enemy has no Calvary” they say. “We have completely obliterated them.”
But the enemy is using snipers. The snipers are picking off important targets one by one and their presence alone is causing world trade to stop in the areas they control.
The Calvary has no way to deal with the snipers as they peak from underground, kill their target, and disappear, never to peak above ground at the point again.
One sniper even took out their fastest and most elusive horseman named F-35. Though only injured the horse may never rise again to rejoin the battle.
The Calvary, though powerful and flawless for its intended purpose, has no means of dealing with the snipers.
So, now, the leader is angry. The Calvary should have been enough. And he will soon throw his foot soldiers to the slaughter as the only words he seems to hear from his generals is “it’s just a few snipers”.
