IF Iran's Nuclear Program Has Been "Completely Obliterated"....

....is there any need to try to force negotiations by continuing to attack? It seems to me there is not. If they try to reconstitute the program just hit them again. It seems to me we should be using PSYOPs and covert operations to help the Iranian people overthrow the Islamic Government. Now that they have Starlink perhaps they can more effectively coordinate their efforts. And of course the US and Israel can provide military assistance as needed to pave the way.

For Gos's sake no boots on the ground and use military strikes sparingly. We don't want to set the region ablaze.

A bit late for that, I fear. This is the most vaguely designed military strategy since GWB declared his "war on terror".

I agree with you. But maybe those bombs were filled with either water or milk chocolate, so maybe setting the region ablaze wouldn't happen anyway?

@swirlie The bombs scarcely matter. The opponent does. Hunting Osama bin Laden was like looking for a needle in a haystack . . but at least we were able to locate the haystack.

@SunshineGirl According to ? Are you a military expert now?

@TexChik I am the daughter of parents who spent most of the first decade of the 21st century fighting with the allies in that bats**t campaign. I seriously thought there could be no repetition.

@SunshineGirl So instead, we allow a psychotic regime to get nuclear weapons and see the world destroyed? History repeated itself , WWII could have been avoided with decisive action like that.

You have to remember that the USA is not a peace-keeping nation. That is not who Americans are and that is not what the USA is all about. If there's not a war already in progress for Americans to stick their nose into, then they'll start one. That's who they are and that's what they're all about. And then after Iran, there will be more.

It's never the end of fighting for the USA, which is why they will fall by the wayside no different than the Roman Empire did when they thought the world couldn't get along without them. The world is sick of that war mongering American mentality that keeps getting put in our faces, along with the kind of fuckked up Leaders that Americans vote into their Presidency to lead their sick nation. The world is disgusted with the USA and it's self-serving interests which is why Iran has absolutely no tolerance for Israel or the USA.
