I mean, all kinds of things can go wrong. For instance, your mother should have swallowed the night you were conceived.
Great point AlterEd!
What a great improvement to this discussion board that simple action would have made!

You'd rather our soldiers and airmen start blowing them up again for the next five, ten or thirty days?

Reality is that we have largely reached the limits of airpower alone.

You think large scale sectarian violence has a high likelihood of being "hugely successful"?

Taco strikes again, and oil is back over $90 a barrel. Hope you enjoy higher gas prices.

So, is your theory that he is not now bombing them further because Israel doesn't want us to?
No bc he knows he fricked up... bombing them more tanks the market and drives up gas prices even more.
This whole conflict has fricked the Repubs for the midterms. He had a golden opportunity to ride into the mid terms with huge BBB refund checks, non existent inflation, low gas prices... everything people elected him on. Now he's just trying to manage the fallout of this bullshite.

I think this is hugely underrated stumbling block.
Along with the fact that nobody really knows who is charge in Iran, even within their own ranks.
Is there urgency to restart the war? I wouldn't say immediately, but remember it was only 2 weeks to flatten the curve during Covid.
Getting into this thing without a clear and decisive exit strategy is a quagmire that I doubt will be solved soon.

ME military interventions are quagmires for a reason

So, he's only beholden to Israel to a point?
I guess that's somewhat good then, no?

I don't even think it will necessarily come to this. The IRGC isn't being paid. Or, if they are, I don't know how and how much longer they can possibly be paid. Iran can't even determine who is leading their country.
What I feel like is most likely to happen is that the people and the regular army turn on the IRGC and they quickly lay down their arms.

Yup, should have stayed the frick out of it. Let Israel and Europe worry about them. They are the countries within firing range of their balistic missles, not us.

Appreciate that he always does it on Tuesday. I wonder if it’s intentional.

I know we will never get access to this, but I'd love so much to see the early plans as to how killing multiple levels of leadership and forcing separation among various factions of the regime emerging after that plan, would lead to productive and unifying negotiations with Iran.
Some of us clearly laid out the problem of the sectarian violence probability at the outset of this campaign. How did the admin, when their strategy was to kill multiple levels of leadership and create a leadership balck hole, not understand and/or anticipate this?

I had dinner with some family members last week -- libs -- and the most flaming lib was like "all he had to do was nothing." Me =
I am all for peace and ceasefires and don't like throwing the TACO thing around, but this whole affair shows why he shouldn't conduct foreign policy on social media.

Trump is going to China in a month. There's your answer as to why the Ceasefire was extended.
