This is almost the plot of a movie that came out in 1959. The Mouse That Roared

We wouldn't invade Greenland. It would interfere with us filming the Mars rover footage

I get the joke but Iran got pummeled with a lot of bombs, with many dead and loads of infrastructure destroyed. Not great, even though they won

Since when do governments care that their citizens are dying?

Peace deal won't even last because Israel decided to attack Lebanon across the red line marked in the deal.

Not that many dead, Iran claims about 3.6k dead. Many times more than that died during protests in Iran this year.

It's not nothing. We invaded Iraq and ruined the entire region for 20 years over less.

Yes, but not excessively high.

Hegseth and Trump are dumbasses so now 300 billion in taxpayer money goes to an asshole government that abuses women. In addition to the extra paid to go to work each day.

The worst part? There were Iranian nationals all around the world that had hours of the tyrannical governement being removed by Trump.

Instead he helped them become more powerful than ever.

That betrayal is terrible, but very on brand.

But he made all the oil and gas company oligarchs even wealthier than they already were, and in the end, isn't that all that matters?

No. It also matters, that people stopped talking about the Epstein files. For about 12 hours.

Can you say it Lauder?
