Deterrence wasn’t restored four years ago, it hasn’t been restored at any point since then, and it won’t be restored by blowing up another Iraqi leader.
Absurd, stupid, futile, maybe. But if the purpose is to provoke a reaction from Iran, then it is done with a purpose. In other owrds, evil, deceitful, malevolent, yes, but not pointless.
Apparently, we need to send dictionaries to Washington since they don't seem to know the difference between deterrent and provocation. It was certainly rich to hear the serial lier & spinner, Kirby, carrying on about, as we allege, that Russia has used a guided missile from North Korea. "Violation of UN sanctions." Give me a break! When you sanction countries the way we do, we have zero authority to stand between what those countries do in violation of sanctions. And it is REALLY rich coming at a time we dump transport load after transport load of weapons into Israel's genocide.
Washington knows full well the difference. The goal is to get Iran to respond and furnish Washington with a convenient causus belli on behalf of Israel.
