    Iran seems to live in la-la land. They leave their scientists and military leaders openly vulnerable.

    They won’t resist a full-on air, ground, and sea operation. Israel will get what it wants and the prince whatever his face also.

      The geography alone will prove problematic. And even if they lose, that doesn’t mean we win. I say we, I mean “The United States.” It will be expensive, we won’t achieve our geopolitical objectives, we’ll alienate our allies, I seriously can’t think of what is actually in it for the US.

        Dude, Iran has no hope against what’s amassing in the area over the last few weeks. A few pitiful Russian weapons that no one’s trained to use? Then what?
