These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War.
Capt. Cody A. Khork, 35

Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39
Sgt. Declan J. Coady, 20

Just like the Brits, we love arming the minority somehow thinking the majority will welcome them as the liberators and new overlords. Madness.

Live look at the marketing video:

The word of the day is:
Interoperability.

Oh yeah. And the White Russians are loved by the people, and will overthrow the Reds. Oh yeah, and Chalabi. Oh and Karzai. We will just be bamboozeld by any expat grifter who speaks perfect English.
