They're both evil. The differences are superficial and aesthetic. Two heads of the same beast. The machine that enables them is the problem, but it's mostly invisible to people. I'm very tired.

Yeah but killing Suleimani was the a stupid action by a provincial, venal strong man. He didn't send cruise missiles in to Tehran. Likewise, drone strikes are very bad but they're not the escalation of mass destruction we'd see under a genuine neoliberal adventurer. His lack of ideology or real concern for the US's power and hegemony keep him from engaging in any really focused use of violent power.
