    It is not the norm, it is becoming the norm.

    How so? This was much more common in the past. It’s become much less of the norm since we have international instituations like the UN.

    Nothing to shrug about, it is quite distopian.

    right, but this isn’t [email protected]. And I don’t think it’s onion-y.

    And how is Hezbollah not a local military? As far as I know, they have existed before the Iranian revolution.

    They are funded by and acting in the interest of Iran. But it wouldn’t really change anything if they were local. It still means the government is only partially in control of the country.

      This makes no sense.
