when i was fetching my morning cuppa, the chyron on the tele said trump is angry about NATO failure re strait of hormuz

🙄 wot did/do he/his masters expect?
a) bombing the shit out of any place just to line your pockets is immoral’
b) repeated trashing of UN and NATO means the world is expecting USA to stop contributing funds/ not be reliable when needed (reciprocity no longer a factor in decision making)
c) 🤬 who are the evil sods enabling this … well i’m tempted to call trump something crude, there’s no way to describe something so off without being offf… why are people passing his military and other orders down the line? they are all disgusting

Mosquito fleets, hidden caves and drones: The battle for the Strait of Hormuz

By moving so much of the war into the Strait of Hormuz and Persian Gulf, Tehran has hit its adversaries where it hurts the most and analysts warn that while the United States military is mighty, history shows in asymmetrical warfare, the lesser power can win the day.

Astonishing high quality visuals & accessibly written - you don’t have to be a military expert to get something out of this article.

Bottom line: “The lesson from history is that asymmetric warfare can draw a larger, financially equipped military into a quagmire that makes a quick victory extremely difficult to pull off, and perhaps most importantly, to announce.”
