US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth condemned for sinking Iranian ship in international waters. Indian politicians criticize US attack as cowardly and despicable.
How about we try and be better behaved than goddamned terrorists?
No? You don’t want to meet that incredibly low standard? Then congrats, you’re also a terrorist. Great job. America is a terrorist nation under Donald “Pig who rapes kids” Trump.
Basically the one in which you don’t want to look like an asshole and a monster. US is not going to face any consequences here, this all about optics. US started the entire conflict and has big advantage. It didn’t have to kill all those people. It chose to do it and did in the most cowardly way. Any invader doing something like this would be condemned and US is simply proving they are as depraved as any other brutal regime. For now they are simply as bad as the Nazis or the Soviets but looks like they are trying to prove they are actually worse.
Iran’s military would NEVER attack a defenseless target!
oh.
How about we destroy all of their military assets and if the soldiers don’t want to get killed, they can desert?
How about we try and be better behaved than goddamned terrorists?

Whataboutism.
When you have to prove that US is actually not worse than a brutal regime but only just as bad you’re not doing as great as you think.
Okay but what armed conflict ever do you sit and wait for them to pick up ammo.
