As ye olde Bible said, bemoaning the fate of Israel, "How are the mighty fallen, and the weapons of war perished!" Indeed, so it is, though it's not quite finished. The mighty American Navy is doing donuts around the ocean, engaging in petty piracy. The might American Air Force is a farce, reduced to amateur drone warfare. And the American Army is nowhere to be seen. How the mighty are fallen, and their weapons of war perished.

America's predominant weapons of war were its aircraft carriers, its aircraft, its bases, which were really one interconnected system. Those are all perished. They're still here, but expired and starting to stink. As some washed up war criminal said to the Military Times, "The potential loss of NSA Bahrain is effectively the equivalent of losing an aircraft carrier." That loss isn't potential, it's been very kinetic. All of the US military bases occupying the region (it was already Greater Israel) are debased. Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, even Jordan and Saudi; they'll never be rebuilt without Iranian permission and Chinese permits, none of which is forthcoming. So where do aircraft land, and where to carriers refill? They're not done, but they're finished.

The US Navy is now based out of Diego Garcia, which is even less hospitable than Bahrain, which at least was on a continent. Diego Garcia is just the tip of an extinct volcano and incontinent. There's nothing but coconuts there, no sustenance. The USS Lincoln has, effectively, mutinied and was sent to molest Southeast Asians. The USS Any Other President won't do any better, they still have the same supply problems. As the Hebrew Bible said, the weapons of war perished. Not the aircraft carriers per se, but the land bases that supplied them. In the end (which is upon is), it's the same thing.

The greatest aircraft carriers have been defeated by this unsinkable aircraft carrier called land. They lost to both Yemen and Iran, historic victories buried by the loser press. And the US Air Force has lost air supremacy over both West Asia and Ukraine (North West Asia?). This is also a historic change in the nature of air warfare, and the US is being left behind entirely. Meanwhile, the US Army is defeated before they started, they're hiding behind proxies and not showing up at all. They were always defeated by guerrila armies, and now they're deterred by them as well. These are all catastrophic defeats. Oh, how the mighty have fallen.

Look at them now. The US Navy has been reduced to petty piracy, harrying Iranian ships sailing Persian seas. And unlike Somali pirates, they're a long way of home with no hope of relief. And the US Air Force is reduced to isolated drone attacks and posting memes. Iran is just harvesting their Reapers at this point, you have to ask why America keeps feeding them. And don't get me started on the US Army, which can't even get started.

If you look at the weapons of war, the US military is reduced to using the weapons of the poor, assassinations, terrorism, threats, and trying to appear bigger than they really are. In the new paradigm of 21st century warfare, Iran and Russia are far superior. America is literally a spent force, they don't make weapons anymore, they just make money. They're announcing more spending but this just advertises their own corruption. Nothing they lose is actually getting rebuilt, they can't even get magnets anymore. What we're witnessing is a fire sale of the military industrial complex. They're going out of business and everything must go.
