Bored of War & Peace 8: This bombing is for Fun because this war in Iran is already Won

"We may hit it a few more times just for fun..."

You know what else Traitor trump has been doing for fun, fundraising off of his despicable appearance at the return of dead American soldiers at Dover AF Base because  

"There’s nobody that’s ever been higher as a president than me with the military.”

 It's not a quagmire if you've willing started a confrontation based on the capricious whims of a syphilitic rapist madman;  it's more the mouth of madness...

I've wondered why the corporate media seems adamant to not criticize Traitor trump,  Drunken Pete Hagueseth, and all the other mouthpieces of war who have launched this wholly untenable and grotesque joke of a war.  Frighteningly, it appears obvious with his macho bravado and religious incantations that Whiskey Pete Hegseth believes this could be the Apocalypse and he is instrumental in bringing about the Rapture.

However, Kaitlin Collins finally gave us an answer to why the Corporate Media seemingly loves trump; he is always readily accessible to them,

"When you speak to reporters who covered President Obama, he almost never responded to shouted questions.  Sometimes presidents are press-averse;  Trump embraced the media, Trump is such an accessible president — anytime the camera is around, [and] reporters are around, it could turn into a press conference."

President Joe Biden was not.  So, in response the Corporate Media decided to destroy Joe Biden and do everything possible to soften, support, and succor Donald trump.  It's absurd and it's obscene.

Look, Jake Tapper was so aggrieved, so angry his entitled position as a Courtier wasn't being acknowledged, he wrote an entire book attacking Joe Biden and his cabinet.  But, the elite media anger at Joe Biden started well before this.  President Biden spoke truthfully throughout his career and these truthful statements, like how Republicans want to put black people back into chains was treated by the press as another "Gaff" and a shocking breach of decorum.  Of course, it has the absolute defense of being truthful.

But, when Joe Biden dared to end the Afghanistan occupation, after 20 worthless years, every journalist from Dick Engel to Lara Logan who had basked in their two decades of being the go-to journalists for War reporting coverage conspired with elite media outlets who hadn't covered Afghanistan in years to declare the pull-out was somehow the biggest debacle in US history.  (Whether the media was riffing off of trump or trump picked up on the media attacks and repeated them I leave up to you to decide). The Media destroyed Biden for ending a War and have done nothing but slavishly praise trump for starting a War, with not only less than a cohesive plan but, with scant thought to anything past day one.

It's so incredibly obvious Traitor trump thought he'd pull off another Venezuelan operation; mass a bunch of naval assets nearby and then eliminate the Iranian leader, after which in rapid succession; the Theocratic State would collapse, he'd get to pick a successor (in this case the Son of the infamous Shah of Iran), and he'd have pulled off the coup which evaded Ronnie Raygun.    

Now, that reality has set in he and his lackeys are lashing out.

“This has been a dominant victory the likes of which we haven't seen in modern American military history.  We certainly welcome, encourage, and even demand their participation to help their own economies.” Mike Waltz told CNN.  

This Victory in Iran has been so great we need everyone else's Navy.  Waltz is one of those insane insular Special Forces weirdoes who spent his career huffing his own farts and engaged in years of rhythmic navel gazing until he turned his brain into mush. 

Again the fact that the 31st MEU had to be called upon to leave their forward operating area in Okinawa, as opposed to having planned by having some others MAGTF ready before-hand is just another illustration of the incompetence and ridiculous stupidity of this administration.  As is the apparent political decision to ignore decades of military understanding of Iran and the Strait of Hormuz and simply believe Iran will not close one of the most important shipping lanes in the world.

Of course, that doesn't stop these treasonous mouthpieces of war going on every Sunday political talk show to demand other Nations stabilize and protect the Strait of Hormuz (of course the elite corporate media readily embraces these Republican fascists)

And yet no one in the media dare call this an unmitigated disaster, a constitutional crisis, an impeachable offense, a monstrous catastrophe.  An end to his Presidency.  Because if they do trump cuts off their precious access, calls them names, and threatens to sic the FCC on them.

Meanwhile, there is absolutely no coherent plan by the US, trump and Hagueseth are going to keep bombing and keep calling it victory, as they and the right have been doing for 2 weeks now. 

Unfortunately, Iran has every reason to continue this conflict, to widen this conflict, to exact and enact as much damage on US and the global economy through shutting down the Strait of Hormuz and continuing to shoot off as many drones, missiles, and rockets as they can acquire from Russia and China;  especially as the US and allies interceptor batteries are depleted and blown up.  Whether this means trump eventually has to expand the war and invade will be seen.

Of course, here's some Faux News quotes about War that always serve to remind you how disingenuous rightwingers are:

* “Explain to the mothers and fathers of American servicemen that may come home in body bags why their son or daughter have to give up their life?”  “We’re sending 250,000 of our young men and women to die so that somebody in Washington can prove they’re tough. It’s not us. We’re not the ones that are going to die, they are.” - Sean Hannity
