What are your thoughts on Hegseths plan of defending troops from drones with more testosterone?

[Lynx122]

Honestly I think this guy is one of the most interesting content creators on youtube. He's a Veteran but he's not indoctrinated by the general U. S. propaganda around the military. That makes it more interesting to hear his takes on wars and geopolitics. And he actually supports Ukraine, unlike Trump so that's a nice thing too.

Anyway the U. S. recently did some exercises with Ukraine where they tested how armored infantry would do against modern drone units and they got bodied. And then the leaderships solution was: "Let's just pretend like this never happened"

Anyway he said the lessons were there since Iraq and Afghanistan. IEDs were just a precursor to drones. The concept is the same lower the cost of each strike, so that you're doing more damage to the enemys resources than it's costing you. Drones are more capable than IEDs but they're just IEDs with propellers basically.

Anyway let me know what you think.

[MrChinaski]

The administration believes looking like something effective is the same as being effective. War disagrees. Ukraine and Iran have shown the c2000 US military is no longer able to dominate its way into so much as a box of raisin bran. Is Hegseth interested in recovering the US military edge? Nope.

[Still-alive]

He’s such an embarrassment lol.

[Laws-Of-Existence]

Too long didn't watch.

It sounds just like Bill Gates 2010 "The world today has 6.8 billion people. That’s headed up to about 9 billion. Now, if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we could lower that by, perhaps, 10 or 15 percent."

What makes you think that these epstein associates in control of USA are any different?

Epstein had asked Bill Gates, asking: “how do we get rid of poor people as a whole” (was published inside same email discussing a minor).

Did we forget that Jeffrey was a good philanthropist? Donated millions to those in need! Even Bill Gates personally visited him for philanthropic help!!

And Epstein also said "Maybe climate change is a good way of dealing with overpopulation… the earths forest fire. potentially a good thing for the species too many people, so many mass executions of the elderly and infirm make sense is the fundamental fact that everyone dies at some time..." "society has no obligation to support its less productive members,"

Do you not think that fagseth wants high testosterone healthy males to die under drones? Why wouldn't he? His bosses want it. ㅤ

[Laws-Of-Existence]

The fuck? Youtube auto removed the audio from that Ted Talk!!! But captions auto generated still show what he said.

[exitseven]

This guy says it all from the beginning. He found somebody that shares his own views. The military performed two very successful raids in Iran and Venezuela. The raids resulted in the destruction of a nuclear bomb facility in Iran and the capture of international criminal Moduro in Venezuela with no loss of American lives.

America has the best military in the world and the weapons the US has are better than anyone else's. Drones, missiles, aircraft and ships are the best and our troops are the best trained and equipped.

President Trump believes in peace through strength and so far it has already paid dividends.

The action in Iran is winding down, It did not go as planned but the outcome will be the same. Sec of War Hegseth has done an outstanding job rebuilding the military, increasing recruitments and keeping Americans safe.

Stronger people are harder to kill

[FrodoSkywalker007]

@exitseven certainly true.
Iran is collapsing. The rial is currently at 2.5 million to $1.
The strait of hormuz is seeing pre war levels traffic, excluding Iran (who has no exports).
And weekly assassinations of IRGC
It looks bad for Iran 🤷‍♂️

[FrodoSkywalker007]

7,000 killed in 25 years of war is a pretty low number, especially when you see the other guy. 80,000 ISIS militants were eliminated by the US alone years ago.

In Iran, there's been 18 US losses, compared to 6,000 IRGC 🤷‍♂️

Drones are certainly the future, and Ukraine has shown this. I'm not really worried 🤷‍♂️ militaries adapt. It's what the US did in WW2.

[Lynx122]

The U. S. is losing the war lol. It's easy to keep your casualties low when you're not actually achieving anything. Iran has destroyed all U. S. bases in the gulf region and is making the U. S. refuel their ships from Diego Garcia. They're keeping the strait closed, Brent Oil is still above 100 dollars and it could get worse because reserves are starting to run low. Oh yeah U. S. ten year treasury is at 5.31 % It was around 4 % before this war started. They knocked out the Saudi pipeline which was circumventing Hormuz. The Houthis are restricting the Bab El Mandeb Strait now too.
What has the U. S. achieved in this war? Sure they bombed Iran and killed some people. Amazing wow. The IRGC is literally stronger than it's ever been. The U. S. can't adapt, because people are making money building things that are not needed and they don't wanna lose that money. And they know which politicians to pay to keep the money coming. In WW2 the U. S. was a rising power now it's crumbling, the situation is pretty different.

[FrodoSkywalker007]

This is embarrassing for you Lynx
Keep casualties when achieving nothing? That makes no sense 🤷‍♂️ would we expect many thousands dead if the military was getting routed?

The US has suffered damage or destruction to 220 structures and aircraft

I'm more interested in facts 🤷‍♂️

[Lynx122]

Brent Crude is 66-70% of the global crude oil market and it's over 100 dollars still and it has been for most of the war. Even with global reserves being drained, even with China cutting back on oil imports till recently even with the oil market being shorted to push prices down. And Brent is what is used the most in Asia the middle east and Europe which is where the oil from Hormuz actually goes. So pls if you're so interested in facts. It's 105 dollars a barrel right now and before the war it was at 68. You're just listening to what you want to hear.

[FrodoSkywalker007]

Notice how you ignore everything due to the complete debunking.
That's sad. 🤷‍♂️

[Alex-Snow]

Just more stupid stuff coming from Pentagon Pete. I think he is compensating for having a small dick.

[NathanDavis]

that can't be real...

[Shiprex]

He doesn't know wtf he's talking about

[Kelly6]

because he speaks American. lol

[Shiprex]

@Kelly6 in his own way yes.

[Kelly6]

@Shiprex called English language , American language

[Shiprex]

@Kelly6 Britain and America, two countries separated by a language.

[moddy_the_mod]

Emp pulse will take care of drones.
