3. I sincerely believe one of the reasons they haven't started lighting up Iran again is because of this

FatFuck and Kegsbreath lit off our strategic reserves of high tech weaponry like 2 kids given the keys to a fireworks store in about 2 weeks and their just aren't that many left (I think they're hiding just how depleted we are). Also, a lot of the stuff the Ukraine war exposed Russia for could be showing itself in us. That is a massively corrupt MIC that pocketed much of the cash they grabbed to build stuff. Sure, not to the extent of the Russian Oligarchs but for as much as we spend on the military I would expect not to run out of shit in 2 weeks even if we let a couple 2 year olds have the matches. Insane amounts of cash just burned through for these two assholes fun not to mention our own military casualties and Irans innocent civilian cost. What makes it worse is Israel was right there burning through their shit along with us.

We're in deep shit and are probably more vulnerable than anytime since WWII.
