Interesting thread on the potential for a quagmire in the middle east and how badly it could go for the US (nitter.net)

How the fuck is this how I'm now learning Iraq declared war on the U.S.

But "tinkzorg", I hear you screaming in rage. "The F-35 is a magical stealth aircraft, surely the US can simply send in those and it's total air dominance will be restored!?".

To that, my answer is "lol". There are, to say the least, a few big problems here.

Great Twitter thread

I can't find anything on this anywhere. Does anyone have literally any source on this?

There were a number of attacks within Iraq. It looks more like irregulars rather than the actual State of Iraq.
