I mean do you think that every person on all the weapons of war really wanted to win against Iran or were they just showing up for a paycheck because they didn’t really believe in their orders. Like doing just enough to not get fired and everyone collectively being like yup we know it’s bullshit and stupid but let’s kill some kids I guess, I mean the computer told us to so it’s not like we can get fired over it
That’s possible but I don’t see the US army being super jazzed about going full imperialism either, maybe Cuba and Mexico might be initially tolerable but the latter is liable to turn into a horrific meat grinder which the population (rightfully) has never taken well in the United States. Every other option is either culturally a US ally or very far away which is a problem because US logistics are nowhere near as overhwelming without international support, or both.
