serious question

The post is hyperbole, but not by much. We’ve let private companies ignore needed infrastructure upgrades for decades. Our electric transmission system is outdated and very vulnerable.

while we are getting into historical symbolism, this reminds me of the invasions of Persia by Alexander the Great and the Arabs. Alexander burnt the capital of Persepolis to the ground, destroying the Apadana (the Persian royal palace), which was one of the largest and most impressive structures on earth at that time. When the Arabs came in the 7th century it is said that they were determined to destroy many important cultural heritage sites including the tomb of Cyrus the Great, and that the locals were able to trick them into thinking the tomb was something else, and thus it was spared (unclear). Anyway, I guess the destruction of ancient cultural sites by invading armies has been a touchy subject in Iran for thousands of years, so this threat is particularly poignant

this is some deep level intercultural psychological warfare, seems pretty bad

Will history remember the name of the Pentagon aide who started the Iran War because he was too loving stupid to understand Trump's personality and he didn't think before adding "assassinate Iranian general inside sovereign nation" to the list of responses?

what you say is of course all true but I prefer to think that Miller just looked on Wikipedia for "historic sites in Iran"

I feel like the most educational perspective I could've ever received on how fascists "think" is DE, realizing they don't actually think but instead engage the world entirely on base emotions allows me to understand so much. They don't care that this is a dangerous escalation that engages us more in the middle east, a thing they don't want. They just feel like we're doing something good and looks strong, so they feel good. It's a good thing. If Trump turns around and then pulls away from Iran by removing troops or something, they'll feel good too, cause he's cutting ties and getting us away from places we shouldn't be in the first place. If he responds by putting in more troops and basically re-invading Iraq, that's good too. We can't back down, we'd look weak if we back down.

lol nothing matters because they don't think about anything. They feel their way through things, and whoever can project the right aura of machismo they'll be happy with no matter what they do, because that's all that matters. I'm sure actually smart people have studied and written lots of stuff about this, but realizing that you can completely separate thoughts and moral codes from your raw emotion made everything make sense.
