US strategy to counter Iranian drones and missiles: just lie and say you shot them all down. Hopefully the Iranians will become demoralized and stop shooting at you.

This is like, everyone's strategy in every war. But what ends up happening (every single time) is nobody believes them except their own analysts and they end up convincing themselves that they're doing great - only to get beat upside the head by reality when it becomes undeniable...

Something like:
> sir, that was our last missile
> what do you mean, last
> we don't have any more, sir
> WHAT DO YOU MEAN WE DON'T HAVE ANY MORE
...

@cjd @Terry no. no. that's literally retarded. even when that strategy works. it just means the other side is for sure retarded.
