Aside:

We should not make fun of both of these lying cheating idiots in charge of either faction.

Look, it's really easy to dunk on them, like super easy. This is a very dumb war and will continue to be so, we all can see that.

But both sides are in a escalate-to-deescalate trap. Neither wants to back down in order to save face. So they can only make things worse.

And things can get a lot worse.

Lots of people legitimately thought that Tehran was going to be a glowing hole by the time you are reading this. That would have been ~17 million lives wiped out. A ground war is a generation in each country that is just decimated like Ukraine is seeing. Already there has been far too much death and destruction, too many children that are now without parents, too many parents now without children.

If avoiding that means not dunking on these barbarous morons for a little while, so be it, a small price.

I know that some random internet comments are about as important as the fly on a horse's ass is to a hurricane, but it has to start somewhere.

I'm not saying we should not hold them to account. No, this mess is maybe something that will snap everyone out of it, it's already so dumb and bad. They deserve, like we all do, the best justice we can give them. And it will not be kind to either side, we all know that.

But, let them have this win. Do the best we can to encourage others to let both sides walk away from this horrible trap. If the do so scot free, hey, that's a win in all of our books.

Let Donny strut about, walk away. Stop it with the TACO nonsense. Let him feel like a big man, a winner, whatever his little pudding brain needs.

Just let the war end before it gets even more out of hand.

Before even more babies have only pictures and stories to know their father by.
