Gradually reducing Iran's cities to rubble with no boots on the ground. That's called Terror Bombing and besides being a War Crime in every sense, we don't have anything near the supply of ammunition for such a sustained bombing campaign that would have to go on far longer and with more intensity than Gaza.

The top General's job is to stop this before it gets started.

No doubt China's defense experts are paying very close attention.
