Besides that point we dominated Iraq and Afghanistan as well but one could argue pretty easily it didn’t go so well after we dominated them militarily. Different situations, so far, but still. Maybe we hold back the dominating talk until this stupidity is over.
We have literally deleted the vast majority of their conventional military.

And we lost two planes? So what? The trade was their entire air force and navy.

This is a war (not one that I was in favor of but we're in it now).
