Enough is enough

quote:

USS Thomas Hudner, an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer, shot down a drone from Yemen in the Red Sea on Wednesday, two U.S. defense officials confirmed to Fox News.

A defense official said the drone was shot down in self-defense. "The drone was heading towards the Hudner," the official said.

The drone attack is the latest in a series of attacks on American troops stationed in the Middle East amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.

The amount of restraint we continue to show as a military is crazy. These 3rd world shitholes just don't know what they will incur if we decide to get up from our cups of coffee. FAFO.

Is there a such thing as a 4th or 5th world country? Because if our military is unleashed on these 3rd world turds, that's what they'll become

You’re stuck in the 1940s. Our military can’t finish the job against any third world shithole since the 60s. Hell, the 50s if you count Korea.

You're factually correct, but not because the military can't do it. Our society has become weak. Most can't stomach an actual full on war. We play by "rules" now.

From the article, had you read it

quote:

Also on Tuesday, the U.S. Department of Defense released two videos of airstrikes conducted by U.S. forces on Iranian proxy fighters in Syria, which took place on Sunday.

A senior U.S. defense official said the strikes killed at least six Iranian proxy fighters at Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps stations in the Syrian cities of Abu Kamal and Maydin.

I hate to say it but Saudi needs to go “All In” and annex Yemen directly. They clearly are unable to govern themselves and need to be strong armed

Yet somehow they figured out how to use our technology in elaborate new drones....

Also - how many drone strikes did the US execute under the Obama regime?

Yep. Let's dump some $1M+ cruise missiles on few tents, mud huts and camels. Then let's deploy there for the next 20 years and dump billions into the shithole, not to mention the blood of young Americans. 5th world, here they come.

Well technically politicians can’t stomach a full on war so they micromanage and nerf the military now.

But if they keep making the military a LGBTQxjnfdj experiment laboratory they soon won’t be capable of beating anyone regardless of circumstance.

The fact we spend as much as we do on the military and none of us really knows anything about what our military is doing at any given time should say something.

Idk much about the navy.

But according to the father in law... That little deatroyer could sink any previous battleship before it even knew they were there.
