If you join a military that has been doing war crimes, and starting illegal wars since before you were born, I have no sympathy if you die.

They don’t see them as children. They’re just seen as “future terrorists”, and someTHING that needs to be cleaned up for their God given destiny to be fulfilled.

This makes complete sense to me. If you think you are the most powerful man in the world, controlling the worlds biggest military, then an offer to help from a much smaller country who has been asking for your help for years, is going to be seen as an insult. It’s basically just his fragile ego, refusing to admit that the country with the most modern combat experience against IRANIAN drones is going to be of any help.
