There is a limit to the precision with which certain pairs of physical properties, such as position and momentum can be simultaneously known.

Well, at least compared to Vietnam so far the number of deaths has been fewer.  They used to report 1000s daily back then.  So far supposedly its around 2000 for the whole 5 weeks.

I don't really believe in the futurist robot war idea, but I'm sure Elon does.

And from a MAGA rag.



As far as MAGA is concerned, glory was had.

There is something fishy about planes destroyed on the ground because they did not have room to take off.  How did they land? And nobody got hurt in any of this.  Helicopters lost?  I hope they find them!

This is very hard to believe.

THE MISSING LINK: HELICOPTER CREWS AND UNACCOUNTED CASUALTIES

Destroyed helicopters (MH-6 Little Birds) and transport planes (MC-130Js) require crews. The official "zero casualty" claim does not explain where those crews went.  Captured, killed, or evacuated, without explanation we have a few possibilities here.

• Four MH-6 Little Birds destroyed — each requires 2 pilots (approx. 8 personnel unaccounted for)
  
• Two MC-130Js destroyed on ground — each requires approx. 5 crew (approx. 10 personnel unaccounted for)
  
• U.S. government states "zero killed or wounded" but does not explicitly state all crews were evacuated
  
• Iranian and Yemeni media report U.S. casualties (9 killed, 7 injured) — unverified by U.S. sources
  
• Fox News and CBS News initially reported "several special forces members injured" — later downplayed
  
• Possible explanations:
  
  
  • Crews evacuated by three replacement C-130s before destruction (unconfirmed)
    
  • U.S. defining "casualty" narrowly as "killed in action," excluding wounded
    
  • Casualties occurring but not yet disclosed to public
    
  • Crews captured by Iranian forces — no evidence provided by Iran
    

Conclusion: The "zero casualty" claim is mathematically possible only if every crew member was safely extracted before their aircraft was destroyed. No source has confirmed this evacuation occurred.

Eighteen missing crew members is not the same thing as loosing track of people in a shopping mall.  But it seems I may be the only one who thinks this way.

Quoteeverybody hides in bunkers while the robots duke it out,

No dead grunts, but plenty of dead civilians.  War will always escalate to death.  I do not see a way around that fact.  Ukraine has lost half their young men.  Russia has lost more men in total, but Russia is more able to absorb losses.  Robot dog and pony shows sort of push those facts under the carpet.  Make the death invisible,  and there will be more of it. 

Trump's war is like no war that America has fought since the Mexican American War of 1846.  That too was raw aggression.  And the US would probably owe reparations to Mexico if that war had happened in the 20th century.  But that was then and this is now.

This war is an Attila the Hun war.  Rape and pillage by America in a country that only has defensive weapons.  We are the Hun.  America kills because it can, and there is no other reason.  Only fools think there is another reason.

QuoteOne envisions a future where only the Elite survive in their compounds, each with their own armies of air, land and sea drones to fight and farming and worker robots growing the food and building toys for peacetime and soldier robots during wartime.

Entropy says no.  We could make a good movie about this, but the reality is we are now experiencing the collapse of complex civilization.  Trump puts America in the final act.
