I really hope we don’t enter a war with Iran

Tell your senator.

I agree. Nobody in their right mind wants war, it is awful! I don’t want to see Trump get lured into this because I don’t think it will create support like war has in the past. Our nation has changed a lot in the last 20 years.

This is the latest media campaign into scaring people by saying the United States could bring back the Draft, going to war with Iran, ie.

Let's hope that Iran has a brain.

I’m 54 And feel 100% the same.

We are closer than we have ever been to war with Iran. They had gotten cocky of late, thinking they were free to do as they pleased, almost daring the US to do anything.

Well, now it’s put up or shut up time for them. If they do strike back, we are very likely going to attack the 52 sites President Trump has designated as targets. This will, IMO, cause the regime in power there to collapse and a more secular government to emerge. There is a great desire amongst young Iranians for a more open country that participates in world affairs.

No offense, but I don’t care about Trump in this scenario in terms of political backing. If you didn’t mean that then apologies...

These wars in the ME tend to last longer than the POTUS that was in office

The thing is, for once, this would involve Iran having to leave their own country to take the fight to us instead of the other way around.

Now I know this can be somewhat debated given how friendly Shiite Iraqi politicians are with Iran, but point stands. Iran has to carry the fight to us outside their borders, giving us an inherent advantage and the luxury of tracking and hammering any substantial operations at will.

All they have left are terrorist and cyber attacks, but this would be nothing new as we’ve been fighting them on that front the entire past decade.

Any missile attacks on our naval and land assets will be met with an overwhelming and disproportionate response, something they are now keenly aware of after we kicked them in the face by easily knocking off their top general.

In short: we get to choose the location of the battle and not them, and rest assured we will have complete air and tactical superiority similar to that time the Russian mercenary force thought they could overwhelm our troops guarding the oil fields.

I think our nation building fiascos have made some of the world’s bad actors forget just how insanely powerful and efficient our military is at doing its actual job: killing people and winning wars. Saddam Hussein made the same mistake and paid dearly. Iran may be next.

The war would be by sea only IMO. Taking out their SAM sites then bunker buster their centrifuges. Fly home with the W.

God Bless you and your son
