Once upon a time, not too long ago, the United States thought of itself as a hero on the world stage. Sure, its actual actions often made that view grossly hypocritical. But even under Bush Jr, the United States was at least theoretically still on a mission to spread freedom, democracy, and fight evil.
Under Donald Trump ver. 2, that’s over, and the administration is instead reveling in being real-life supervillains, embracing evil and salivating over the deaths of innocents. Now it seems Pete Hegseth and Stephen Miller are duking it out to see who can sound most like a crazed lunatic from a Bond movie.
Missing only a white cat and a facial scar, Miller appeared on Fox News to rejoice in the horror of Operation Epic Fury:
Stephen Miller: "There has never in history been a more total asymmetric one-sided annihilation of the enemy than what is unfolding right now in Iran" pic.twitter.com/T6pNkg0W5W

“There has never in history been a more total asymmetric one-sided annihilation of the enemy than you are witnessing what is unfolding right now in Iran.”
Miller goes on to conclude that “it has been a complete wipe out of their capacity to unleash violence on the world”.
It’s a bit rich to say Iran needed to be wiped out because of their “capacity to unleash violence on the world”, when you are at this very minute pouring down high explosives on cities and threatening the same for other countries you don’t like.
I guess the US military vs a girls’ elementary school is “asymmetric warfare”
Maybe Miller might have a point if Hegseth were able to execute precision strikes to annihilate “the enemy”. But he can’t – what he was able to do is destroy a girls’ elementary school and massacre at least 165 little girls between the ages of seven and twelve.
But hey, if you’re talking “asymmetric warfare,” it doesn’t get much more asymmetric than the most advanced and expensive military in human history versus a schoolful of unwitting children settling down for a day’s education. But, from Miller’s perspective, those little girls had it coming for the “crimes” of being Iranian and daring to attend an elementary school in the vicinity of a military base.
For the sake of our sanity, we have to hope that one day consequences will arrive for the likes of Stephen Miller, as this smirking creep is doing more to destroy America than a thousand mullahs on the other side of the planet.
In an ideal world, Miller would be hauled before a court to pay for his evil. But, if you hadn’t noticed, we don’t live in an ideal world, so you’ll probably see emerging from a fluffy neon green goose costume on The Masked Singer within a decade or so.
