I did read the article. I also read the title.

I stand by my comment. They walked in with arrogance and hit a wall. That is not the troops fault or an equipment problem. The equipment works fine for what it was designed to do.

Does the article point out we need cheaper mass produced drones and not new battle ships? Yes. But they hid it behind a title that did not say that.

Also it reads like an ad for massive defense spending while ignoring the fact that we should not have been there to start with. It would have cost us nothing to not participate. But the pro Israel NYT is not going to say that.

Custer should have not tried to bully the Indians. But he fucked around and found out. Now so has trump.
