## Resource

Eric Peters of ericpetersautos.com calls the Iran war outcome exactly what it is: America spent somewhere between $100 billion and $300 billion to return to the status quo ante, while Iran demonstrated that U.S. military bases are as obsolete as battleships — neutralized by drones the same way tanks were, and now a liability rather than a deterrent.
