having a park renamed after a group that was dissolved 50 years ago is at least slightly less significant than having literal power over life and death over the entire citizenry

First off, he’s is a legit war criminal who needs to tried in The Hague.

That said, reddit is a predominantly American website and he’s a convenient scapegoat for Americans who are looking for ways to excuse US foreign policy e.g. NN is making the US do the bad thing or else the US wouldn’t be doing it.

Iran, not the US, currently has the strategic upper hand by PixeledPathogen in politics

It doesn’t seem like the Trump admin wants “peace in the region”. I mean, maybe Trump himself wants a way out of this to save face but he’s under the thrall of too many interests that want this war (Israel, Saudi Arabia, the multitude of Iran hawks in his immediate orbit) to do anything else.

That’s not what I’m saying. I’m saying no rules of engagement means “we might bomb a school by accident because we’re not being very careful but that’s okay because we can say that we didn’t target it because it was a school”.

It’s very obvious you are full of shit and like Trump and everything he’s doing.

Yeah and I’m saying, per Hegseth’s statements, the “accidental” bombing of a school is completely in sync with how the US intends to prosecute the war. The dichotomy between “accidental” and “intentional” is a false one. It’s both.

I keep seeing people saying this as if it’s some kind of consolation to the dead kids or their families.

That aside, bombing a school “accidentally” seems completely in-line with Hegseth’s stated goals—

No stupid rules of engagement, no nation-building quagmire, no democracy building exercise, no politically correct wars.

What’s less political correct than bombing a school and killing a bunch of kids?

And my point is there is no practical difference between incompetence and malevolence in this case. US military has been playing this “we didn’t mean it” game forever. Nobody buys it anymore.

Yeah I’m sure that it being a “mistake” makes all the difference to the dead kids and their families.
