The United States lost the war with Iran & much more

The USA has lost the war with Iran; this is all a part of the controlled demolition playing out in real time.  As a nation we should be disgraced and embarrassed our paper tiger bases surrounding Iran have been heavily damaged and destroyed. 

Here's how:

No rare earths = no fighter jets = no war. The US imports ~70% of its rare earths from China. China is restricting those very supplies. Rare earth stockpiles were already low before the war began. It's not just fighter jets... the entire US military is dependent on Chinese rare earths. This puts the US in a rather precarious situation, where it is dependent on the very country it seeks to defeat. Like a true student of Sun Tzu, China won the war without firing a single bullet.
