The goal was never to conquer the country of Iran.

Seize Kharg Island. Shut down their oil processing infrastructure there. Seize all their transport ships and prevent foreign shipping from entrance and egress to Iranian ports. Use air to ground interdiction and special forces to prevent any supplies from entering via land routes. Keep all their foreign assets frozen. Shut off all military reinforcements from China and Russia. Shut down their communications system. Destroy all their weapons and weapons manufacturing. Leave electricity, water and food production alone. Then, tell them we want unfettered access to their stored, buried uranium and any and all remaining nuclear labs. If they don’t do so, lights out, food out, bridges out, and strong message to follow.

Carpet bomb the western coast and ports where the boats etc are coming from that are closing the strait. Destroy the infrastructure that was identified 6 weeks ago. Take out the new supreme leader.

I love the President but he has fricked this war up. Part of the agreement on the original 2week ceasefire was to open up the Strait. Has the Strait been opened up? The answer is NO!! If we can’t get them to honor a basic ceasefire where the Strait of Hormuz is open and and they do not shoot drones and missiles at anyone in the region then what good is deal where they agree to anything. You can’t trust them to keep it. They are subject to change in Iran on a whim. Let’s just quit wasting time and go finish off these assholes while they are hanging on by a thread and not have to go back later and start from scratch.

Blockade. Destroy and patrol over land routes.
Give 1 week to come to terms.
If they dont take out energy and transportation in tiers.
Tier 1. Disable 4 main bridges and 2 major power plants.
Give 1 week.
Tier 2 double tier 1.
Give 1 week.
Tier 3 double tier 2.
Continue until capitulation or verrified revolution.

To conquer? I agree. What is the goal now? Not two months ago.

Trump did ask for an unconditional surrender months ago. That means something.

This is an understatement.

The US having zero plan (much less an effective one) for keep the strait open is the most embarrassing foreign involvement this country has had since the tet offensive.

High school students have known for 20 years that lithe Iranian regime would respond to an existential threat by closing the strait. Yet this administration launches a desaturation strike, and then apparently had zero plan for Iran closing the strait.

It’s fricking stunning. And dangerous - because it suggests that we’ve got idiots in charge.

Make an alliance with Iran’s neighbors. Divy up the targets and take out all infrastructure while maintaining the blockade.

If all of Iran’s neighbors teamed up this would be over

VDH said that at this point just lay waste. Bridges, power plants, energy infrastructure, everything needed for commerce.

Then go home and let them stir in their own juices.

Let’s say Iran does agree to let us dig out that uranium. We send people over and look at the project and see what would be needed to do it and how many people it would require. I assume quite a few. They come back to the US get the needed manpower and equipment and go back. On the way back over there the IRGC decides they change their mind on this deal they signed. As soon as the plan lands these people are taken into custody and the Leadership of Iran starts threatening to behead these people on State run media if we do not immediately give into their demands or if we send any military over. Do we really want to send American citizens over to a country that is run by a regime that famously ok’d American Embassy workers hostage for well over a year? How many times has the current people in power made a deal only to pull it off the table after Trump goes out and makes a statement on having a deal making him look like a fool? If he trusts these people he will regret it somewhere down the line.

After 47 YEARS, level the fricking place. Any assets they have that enable the control of shipping, level it. Any factory they have to build munitions, LEVEL it. Any human being they have thay doesn't immediately surrender, kill them. Anything or anyone whatsoever that gives them any sort of perceived leverage, annihilate it. It is time to destroy that place. Do it now, and the western world will forget it in 2 months.

There is no good answer, and I’m not sure a correct answer. We never should have started this, but here we are now.

I think you have to somehow gain at least a European support around some action relative to the Strait, which hopefully includes extreme measures against Iran if the Strait is impeded in any way.

I think (though it’s impossible due to blackmail and black money) that we have to disassociate with Israel. I think we cut all aid and all support that is not responsive to attacks on them.

Israel has been the constant with the war in Iraq, Syria, Arab Spring, etc. They are the “friend” that’s constantly getting you in shite situations with no real upside.
