I don’t think we’ve ever seen the US lose a war so quickly and completely.

And I call it losing because they’ve failed at every reasonable objective.

Honestly, of all the bad possible outcomes of this war. Losing this way is the least bad.

Maybe.

The fertilizer shortage driven famines and dust bowl haven’t started yet.

Exactly, if this really all ended now then we all practically got off easy. (Including the Iranian people compared to how bad it could get.)

so far... until the boots touch down and the loss gets worse
