Still, the war is very complete, pretty much, according to the most powerful man in charge of the most powerful military...practically every day since day 3.

Was there ever a plan or even a goal?

So now the US is spending more of its own vital weapons, which will leave Taiwan largely undefended on a war without goals and without end.

China must be laughing about.

Once all these US weapons have been squandered on an unwinable war with Iran, then China surely must invade Taiwan, as a better opportunity may never present itself.

* What's with the downvotes? Don't like the truth?

Hardware and equipment aside, there's been an ongoing purge of personnel in the DoD (DoW) since the admin took office. The pentagon was recently described as 'like game of thrones' due to military personnel getting axed over disagreements with the admin on Iran.

This has been the case for a while now but the US military is steadily being filled with sycophants and MAGA ideologues

I don't think they'll need to invade. A war would be costly and pointless. It is becoming clear that the US's protection is a lot like how the king protects his pawns.

> Was there ever a plan or even a goal?

There was. Decapitation strike -> ??? -> Regime change.

Anyone who said this plan was stupid was fired.

The regime's war on DEI is more a war against Dissent, Ethics, and Intelligence.
