I might ask this on /k/ but they're very sensitive over there, but can you the collapse of the US ability to project it's strength on the 18 years of DEI-ification of the armed forces started by Obama?I know it's a meme to say "thanks Obama", but the rot began with him and wasn't addressed properly during Trump's first term, and went into overdrive under Biden.
>>532355110Iran already has the pilots, they went down in the daytime yesterday. Centcom just clarified they only rescued the A-10 pilot from yesterday, despite claiming that they had rescued 1 of the pilots deceptively.
>>532355110One pilot died. The other pilot was picked up after they paid a local farmer 1 million dollars not to kill him
>>532355110Stop falling for American propaganda where they're pretending to be weak. They're literally the only superpower and no military comes close. Iranians are primitive and can't even defend themselves. Only the real ones know.
>>532355110yes.Everything going wrong now is the fault of Obama and Biden.Trump tried to save the situation but there's only so much a man can do.
>>532355110Absolutely not. I think you overstate the degree to which politicians can change what are usually established and very conservative institutions.A better argument would be that politicians actually failed to change the armed forces rapidly enough. But I know that isn't what you wanted to hear.
>>532355110I wouldn't say the US is in decline in terms of military power, yes it's not able to rise as many troops as it was able decades ago, yes it may not be as diplomatically influential as it was before but they have a lot of technological advantage, even after they lost against Vietnam or Afganistan in the past the K/D was always in favor of the US by a wide margin, this war so far has been the same with the US having less than 50 deaths while the Iranians having around 5k give or take.
>>532355181>>532355203That's not really what I was talking about.>>532355353>>532355459>>532355844I mean, how many brown people, faggots and troons have been promoted into important positions since 08? Are you saying that hasn't had a negative impact on standards and doctrine? Case in point an A10 rambling around contested airspace instead of being used as close air support which it was literally deigned for.Hardware wise I'm sure they're still way ahead of everyone, but that's no use if you have the likes of pic related at the wheel.
>>532356021>this war so far has been the same with the US having less than 50 deaths while the Iranians having around 5k give or take.The difference being that this war hasn't even gotten to the stage of the ground operations yet.It's more comparable to the US interventions in Libya (0 combat casualties, 1 dead by unrelated accident) and Syria (13 dead over 11 years).
a hot, curvy persian widow found them and hiding them from dutka durkas. her husband was executed by evil iranian regime and she joined resistance aftermath. they will soon meet a mossad agent and pass the border after very dangerous journey.
>>532356093I very much doubt it has had any effect at all. The vast majority of people in the armed forces are not "war fighters" per se. I don't really care how cooking or postal services or barrack maintenance is organised.
