A number of occasions in his social media screeds and public pronouncements, President Donald Trump has threatened to ship Iran again to “the stone ages,” apparently oblivious to the truth that there was however one Stone Age.
The president’s threats come and go, changing on his whims, but he continues to assert his willingness to decimate Iranian bridges and energy facilities, even if such destruction directed against civilian targets would be considered a war crime. Perhaps Iran will quickly be pummeled so badly that the nation’s individuals can be decreased to dwelling a Stone Age-like existence, or perhaps not. Not even Trump is aware of. The commander in chief is making it up as he goes alongside whereas his warfare spirals uncontrolled.
If something displays elements of the Stone Age, it’s the manner Trump and Pete Hegseth, the dreadfully unqualified “Secretary of Conflict,” are conducting themselves like a pair of troglodytes wildly smashing issues with massive golf equipment, beating their chests as they incoherently roar. If there’s a technique formulated of their un-evolved brains, it appears to be this: Bellow, bomb, bellow some extra, drop a number of F-bombs and declare victory when issues go from unhealthy to worse.
