Corkyskog comments on U.S. uses hundreds of Tomahawk missiles on Iran, alarming some at Pentagon

It doesn't make sense though, they claim we have had air supremacy since like day 2. Why does the US need expensive missiles if they have air supremacy? Just drop dumb bombs wherever you want, we supposedly have like close to infinite bombs.

Does the US really have air supremacy? Were those planes that went down really from friendly fire and accidents?

It makes sense if you assume the goal is to destroy the USA.

Alternatively the administration is just really dumb and that's why nothing makes sense. Occam's Razor and all that.

it all makes perfect sense if you acqept the premise: "what if the dumbest, most pathetic people ran the USA?"

Russia probably used most of theirs in Ukraine, and they want the US to be similarly strategically weakened.

Dumb bombs would kill even more innocent civilians than are already being killed.

Considering they are intentionally targeting civilians right now, like those 165 girls hit with a cruise missile that have FPV I am not entirely sure if that's even true.

No one just drops random bombs anymore, they're not going to hit anything. If they were they would use jdam which is just a GPS glide kit you bolt onto a dumb bomb.
