    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.

          I mean we’ll really alienate them. Y’all aren’t happy with us right now, because we’re acting a fool, but we aren’t out in the cold yet.
