And then the Iranians got real real mad, and then the Iranians fired ballistic missiles at a US base in Iraq and kinda missed on purpose but not really, and The Troops stationed there were unscathed but got brain damage from being so close to the blast, and then it turned out the US and Iran were communicating through a Swiss back channel to arrange a "proportionate" counter-response to each other, and then Trump tweeted that everything was fine, and the libs got mad he didn't immediately invade Iran over what amounted to Havana Syndrome for The Troops and then everything got buried over COVID?
That was pretty fucked up when you think about it
EDIT: Oh YEAH -- AND THEN the Iranians got real paranoid and on high alert and ended up shooting down one of their own airliners on accident the same day, in a sick sort of mirroring of the USS Vincennes incident
I suppose it's a good thing I'm bringing it up as a counter-factual hypothetical online, rather than asserting it as truth in the real world.
People sometimes say things they get off the internet in real life. It's good to be accurate, or at least not take issue when someone else is.
