And how is he gonna do that exactly if he ran out of ammunition? Using harshly worded tweets?

    Probably the same fighter jets and bombs he used before, no? They may run out of missiles though, but enough firepower should remain to commit a genocide.

    And what would be different the second time around? The US has depleted 50-80% of key munitions to kill around 7k people in Iran. With total cost of 113 billion dollars already spent, that roughly 16 million dollars per Iranian killed.

    Commiting an israel-style genocide is not feasible for the US here because there is very little to gain from killing civilians and destroying the basic infrastructure especially considering the limited resources and time the US has.

    Full scale war is only gonna go the Russia Ukraine path which is just a humiliation ritual for the human intellect.

    It's time to accept the fact that you shouldn't kill your path through every problem in the middle east and just find a reasonable deal for the time being.

    The long term game is always on the US side anyway, because the US has the best weapon in history called Wall-Street that is guaranteed to make you economically stronger than anybody else in the long term.
