Hmm yes I think I will remove the respected leader that opposed Iran having a nuclear weapons program. 👀
That was widely expected to die soon of natural causes anyway
In a society that reveres martyrdom above all else 🤔
I feel like its a goal of the MIC as it gives them a reason to exist. Use violence, terror, kill civilians to create more enemies and justify more military spending.
Not a good long term strategy, but the orphan crushing machine still has people willing to operate it.
The US generally benefits from depopulating & undeveloping resource rich or strategically marginal areas for coercion, keeping costs down, denial purposes, or just to keeping value chains stable, but this risks blowing up the petrodollar system. I think they might actually be completely insane. What did WarClaude™ tell them?

Well they created isis last time they displayed their level of stupidity. This time... Super isis?
Yes the goal is 100% super-ISIS they wanted to get this going in Xinjiang and Central Asia. ISIS is actually smart here's the thing. The US benefits from having a higher level of productivity due to advanced technology, and basically cannot survive without laying waste to entire regions to keep them underdeveloped + access resources.
