Two senior U.S. officials tell NBC News that military commanders are allowing some Iranian missiles and attack drones to get through air defenses amid an effort to preserve the Pentagon’s shrinking supply of missiles to shoot them down. NBC News’ Courtney Kube reports.
Probably the same things you watched. He very literally complained that they were just about out of munitions and that was why he was there begging for money. He keeps whining that our national safety is at risk because of their dumb asses.
Come on Denmark, now’s the time to invade the US.
Hey! That’s OUR thing! 🇨🇦
Look, as a representative of the United States I’m just going to put out there that we will welcome an entire coalition of friends to invade us and set us free.
Denmark, Greenland, Canada, Cuba, Spain, Venezuela, Mexico…
Fuck, I was trying to list places that jackass had threatened recently and had to stop because beating the shit out of the US should be pretty much everyone’s thing at the moment.
when I watch US politician whining about strength of for example my country (Iran) or Russia, it usually is for begging for money form congress.
so they have a habit of exaggerating the issue by a lot.
so when he says “they’ve blown through the vast majority of our weaponry” what he means is that stocks of them is 20 percent depleted.
If shit hits the fan 20% is a rather significant amount though. Especially at the rate we’re going through them because literally all they seem to care about right now is bombing the shit out of other countries. And the cost for that much munition is absolutely astounding.
Either way the whole thing is absolutely deranged. We have zero business running around kidnapping world leaders, threatening to annex other countries, and starting wars indiscriminately.
And we look to be wanting to do more. We keep threatening Greenland, Rubio just put out a report that basically looks like an invasion plan for Cuba, I’m interested in whether they’re trying to put together some sort of plausible sounding casus belli against Mexico or Canada too.
If he’s idiots have their way we’re going to burn through every last missile.
And we’re going to fire them at people who are not currently firing at us. Just because.
Its bigger than how many missiles we have left, its how fast can we manufacture replacements? What parts are unavailable now?
