Last night, Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf sarcastically remarked: "After 37 consecutive defeats of Iran, their utterly strategy-less war has now descended to: Hey! Who can help us find the pilots? Please, wow! The progress is astonishing! It's truly genius!"
[Clever] Commenting briefly: After Trump's "countless victories," reports are now emerging of American aircraft being continuously shot down. Everyone is scrambling to find pilots. The arrogance of hegemony has been thoroughly exposed! This mockery by Ghalibaf precisely punctures the bottom of Trump’s war farce. From grandiose boasts of "regime change" to desperately searching for missing pilots worldwide, the so-called "decisive victory" of the U.S. military is nothing but self-deception. Over a month into the conflict, the U.S. and Israel have spent $9 billion in military funds and fired 850 Tomahawk missiles—yet they’ve suffered repeated aircraft losses, 8 U.S. soldiers killed, and over 3,100 anti-war protests across the country.
History already holds the answer: Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq—the United States has never won against any nation with more than 30 million people. Iran, with 90 million citizens united in anger and mobilizing 7 million for potential combat, has repeatedly broken through U.S. air defenses, firmly controlling the Strait of Hormuz. The claim of "37 defeats" is merely a self-indulgent numerical game from the White House. From strategic superpower to search-and-rescue team, the decline of hegemony is laid bare. This war has proven beyond doubt: using bombs to attempt regime change is always a dead end. The more the U.S. fights, the more disheveled it becomes; the more Iran unites, the stronger it grows. This 'downgrade'—a masterpiece of irony—is the most vivid testament to imperial decay!
