Iran is no lightweight. And air strikes can only do so much to a nation its size. When that inevitably fails to produce the outcome Donnie and Nuttyyahoo want, will they escalate? We're not invading Iran. Geographically it's a hell of a tough nut to crack. That would require a Desert Storm level mobilization and a cross gulf invasion that would rival D-Day (Iraq wants no fucking part of this and neither does Turkey). That's crazy shit and ain't gonna happen.

But we may try to put boots on the ground at strategic points, hoping the Iranian people "rise up" and do the hard work for us. They won't. Some foreign power bombing the shit out of people tends to unite a populace, putting their prior differences aside. How many times have we seen that! And they'll start sending those "US boots on the ground" back to Dover AFB in coffins.

It's a fool's errand. The whole damn thing. And Trump and Nuttyyahoo are the greatest fools on the planet right now.
