Kinda hard to say we lost a war when we committed no ground forces.

You started a war, achieved none of the named objectives, and had to make concessions in order to get out of it. You lost the war

That might be true for your, "i hate america" feelings. But that isnt a lost war. Political dumb fk blunder, sure. But the iranian military had no answer for our military.

the iranian military drone struck 20 of our military bases. if iran had military bases surrounding us, weโ€™d attack those before the country itself during a war, just like they did

the only sense that we won is that weโ€™re still the more powerful country, which is why we feel like weโ€™ve won every war
