Pentagon just conducted a months-long exercise in Iran

Wow what a fucking ghoul, excercise in what? Murdering kids, political assassinations and taking huge geopolitical and economical L's? China must be trembling right now.

The Pentagon just conducted a months-long exercise in Iran of new tactics and technology that will be useful in a future conflict in Europe or Asia.

It goes both ways, dude. China and Russia just got a great look into the US's capabilities and tactics without firing a single bullet, and you have no idea what they're training on or what they're capable of lol.

"Sure Iran blew the US out of the water in *lists every militarily relevant metric*, but we absolutely OWNED in children blown up in school. And according to Holden Bloodfeast's "War Crimes Points" those are worth sooo much!"

Epic Fury traded the destruction of the military of the world’s leading terrorist state for an increase in energy prices that will ultimately subside. That is a good trade.

Well, I can't deny that it caused a lot of damage to the military of the world's leading terrorist state, I'll give him that.

Alright soldiers, you did a good job getting your ass kicked training with Iran. Now we're ready for the big leagues. Get ready to take on the super power that sells us all the things we need to make our shit.

The war also gave the U.S. military the opportunity to practice. China’s People’s Liberation Army has not fought a war in decades.

IDK... I don't think the nation that has constatnly been at war for decades is in need of more opportunities to "practice". Not fighting wars seems like that smarter thing to do. But what would I know? I'm not being paid 6-7 figures to write shit like this.

an expert's point of view on a current event

The expert:

The recent chapo episode where they dunked on this was quite funny. Getting your ass beat and saying to the biggest onlooker as you're carted away to hospital "i hope you saw that you're next"

China’s People’s Liberation Army has not fought a war in decades.

Something interesting the PLA does that never factors into these people's assessments though is bring in vets from other countries' wars to help train their people and work on their processes. Back in the 2010s one of the most lucrative career paths for American military pilots was to resign their commission and go to China to be an instructor (technically this is illegal, so they would do it through civilian companies on the sly, and of course the American government has a big problem with it).

"Sure I was Checkmated with ease, but I was ahead on material, and my next opponent hasn't even practiced today!"

Amazing to look at how a country of 90 million people kicked America's ass and think it proves the US could beat a country of 1,410 million.

Practice fighting in a war. Which amounts to what exactly? How would the European or Pacific theatre be remotely comparable to the west Asia theatre? The conditions aren't comparable at all. This is like say that you are better prepared for your math test cause you got a 20/100 on your English test

i am once again stating that the point of this war was just to be at war with an enemy. the question of winning or losing doesn't even apply to this war, since it was declared and prosecuted (and will continue to be prosecuted when we inevitably break the ceasefire) purely for the purpose of being in The News and delivering some Spectacular Violence to the hogs

So their argument is just "This war was so pointless and awful that it sends the world a clear message, we'll attack anyone, anywhere, for no benefit to us, just because we can. We're the good guys world police btw."

The only reason they're publishing this shit is to give the hogs on wikipedia something so they can stop the wiki article from saying "Iranian Victory"

me reading that title

The US was not owned.

We didn't get totally owned, just like 90% owned.

This text is not cope because we didn't get owned and it's not bothering me in the slightest. I don't even think of it anymore because why would I since we didn't get owned anyway.

I think if you poked a hole in this man, not blood but sawdust would pour out.

Making up shit on main.

I assume it's some kind Vietnam war logic? We killed more people therefore we won

I like how it has a picture of the head of the nation agsinst the backdrop of the flag of crazy nuts. (It is the state flag of Ohio and their icon is the Buckeye Nut)

Ohio buckeye nuts (seeds of Aesculus glabra) are poisonous to humans and livestock in their raw state due to the presence of glycoside aesculin, saponin aescin, and tannic acid.  Ingestion can cause severe symptoms including vomiting, diarrhea, muscle weakness, paralysis, and potentially death. 

Somehow bombing real people who had real lives (not to mention that those people were completely innocent and rarely even combatants) is just a "months-long exercise." If I recall correctly, exercises are supposed to be, y'know, not doing actual damage?

Oh it's the guy, what ghoulishness do I remember him from?

People doesn't say that a loss teaches more than a win? Well that's true when you recognize the loss, if you pretend you won you learn fucking nothing dumbass.
