It's looking increasingly like these guys thought that if they could wreak more death and destruction than the other side then they would be respected as strong powerful men and they would "win" and that would make them big important heroes. Very possibly they had no rationale deeper than that.

It's hard to claim innocence when you sign the murder weapon.

In this case, there is probably even an actual signature from Hegseth.

An AI disaster is getting ever closer Donald Trump orders federal agencies to stop using Anthropic's AI technology while simultaneously demanding the company cooperate with the government for six months.

"In fact, the row has provided something of a boost to Anthropic’s reputation for probity. Within a day of earning Mr Trump’s outrage, Claude became the most downloaded free app in America in Apple’s digital store." | The Economist
