In my book all of these are more like probing attacks. Which are design to see if US can still follow the tempo.
Plus these all diverts US energy from Ukraine. Which is still the main fight in all this.
It can't.
We got lazy fighting wars against third world countries for 30 years.
Rolling around in MRAPs fighting dudes who only had ak's, pkm's, and explosives, and thought we still ruled the world.
We are finding out fast how "superior" all those vehicles are when the enemy has ATGM's, tanks, artillery, Helicopters, drones, jets, and deep strike missiles. Not to mention a navy.
Our recruiting numbers are terrible, our war materiel production is but a sliver of what it was during the cold war.
We outsourced the production of most of the components of our weapons, vehicles and ships.
We reduced our industrial plant in an effort to make more money off cheap foreign labor to such an extent that we don't even have the factories in the US to make enough stuff anymore.
If this shit with Israel keeps up we're gonna find our
REAL quick where our loyalties lie (which would be with Israel).
The importance of Israel politically here is well documented, not to mention that we have the largest jewish population in the world.
From a cynical standpoint, we could actually help Israel win with support where I believe the best we can do in Ukraine is maintain a stalemate that they then slowly lose.
Worryingly though, I think we might have blown our wad sending so much to Ukr that now there isn't much left to send to Israel except Air to Ground munitions, since Ukr doesn't have much of an airforce so we haven't sent them too much of that.
But you can't win by just bombing people, Vietnam taught us that.
