Gulf Victory
This euphoria about the victory in the Persian Gulf only shows how serious America’s inferiority complex is today. How else could we think that this was such a great success? We launched a war machine, designed to crush the Soviet Union, against a country which couldn’t beat its neighbor Iran in eight years. And we slaughtered the Iraqi ground troops, who had no air defense and who were abandoned by their leaders. Any comparison to World War II must be considered an insult to those who fought that war.
