They know that this strategy won’t work but they continue anyways. They know they can’t restock their ammunition but they still fire them. What am I missing here?
I did write here two months ago or more that the US has no path to victory or a definition of what victory means. But I thought it would take much longer than this. It took much longer for US defeat in Afghanistan to be apparent. Unless you start counting from when the US first started fighting Ansar Allah in 2004.
Fun fact: it was the USSR that helped get South Yemen’s missile program started. Later this technology was transferred to Yemen after reunification. So it isn’t just Iran supplying them.
I imagine it's a similar situation to Ukraine, US got in over their head and now they don't have an exit strategy. If they just pull out now then they look really weak, and this is especially painful in an election year. On the other hand, they don't have a practical way to escalate. Putting boots on the ground would require declaring an actual war and getting congressional approval. So, I expect they're just going to keep doing what they're doing and try to portray it as some sort of a success.
Meanwhile, painting all resistance against US as Iran proxies seems to be neocons laying the ground for a war with Iran that they're salivating for.
Lmao man they would actually look a lot better if they just admitted their mistakes and pulled out, if they think pulling out makes them look weak then how would continuing to stay and waste resources and not even be able to do anything about it make them look?
They can't restock their ammunition sufficiently, because their MIC didn't invest in surge capacity. But given enough time... eventually, they will restock (probably). So whatever they use, they might not replace immediately, but certainly they can add it to the budget.... I imagine that's the motives (alongside typical AmeriKKKan sadism)
