I can show you on the doll.
Ugh in the military grave yard.

How many soldiers did we lose in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq?
What did the USA gain from those wars?


The military industrial complex got wealthy.

I made seven patrols on a Polaris Missile Submarine, back in the 60's, protecting the USA from the Soviet Union. wink wink.
Lyndon Johnson was President. The Submarine on which I was stationed, was made by Electric Boat, in Groton, Connecticut. President Johnson was a Stock Holder in Electric Boat.
In 1967, while in port, preparing to load two new missiles, we received word that the USS Liberty was under attack. We were ordered to close up ship and prepare for Sea. No reason given as to why we would go to Sea, short two missiles
I was thinking, what the hell is happening. Are we under attack back in the States, from Russia? Is my family, back in the States, safe?

Not to worry, Israel was attacking the USS Liberty. They wounded
over a hundred and killed about thirty.
Giving servicemen relief from the attack wasn't important. President Johnson and Sec Defense, McNamara recalled the fighter planes, that were en-route to give the dying sailers some protection.

Apparently, nothing has changed. Israel still has a protected status.

I have a theory that the west prefers that Israel have a strong had at that location because of the Suez Canal, another choke point just like Hormuz.

They took our best shot, and they're still standing. Still running the government. Still controlling the SOH. Still arming Hezbollah. Still building ballistic missiles. About the only thing they aren't doing is enriching Uranium. So there's that.


Sounds like Rocky 1 movie.

We can’t beat Iran unless it’s nuked. Why do you warhawks keep thinking they will bend the knee to the US?

These hardliners would live in caves and not surrender. The only solution is for the citizens to rise up. We can’t bomb our way to victory. This was the mistake of this whole adventure.

Shapiro can't understand why we didn't put "Boots On the Ground".

Meanwhile he sits in his Penthouse in NY.

If he believes, why isn't he "putting his boots on the ground".

Same with the Israel defenders on this board. Join up and get your free transportation to see your "homeland".

Sorry for the Rupar link, but I think he didn't go with bridge and power plant day as the potential economic fallout is too much of a risk

Think power vacuum sucking in the ME neighbors who hate Iran and want a piece of it. By leaving some authority that must behave, we can expect peace.

I don't think leveling the country was the way to go. I'm glad Trump wised up and let JD work to resolve things.

Because, whether it's good or bad, we dont have the appetite and mentality for imparting total destruction.

In a mountainous country like Iran I would isolate a large metropolitan area by bombing roads and bridges. Arm those, in the area, who want to be rid of the regime and use airpower to prevent forces from infiltrating from the outside. Rinse and repeat. We will quickly find out if the people truly want freedom from the IRGC.

Can’t do nothing if there’s no bridges or power. We haven’t done that yet.

If that's our only path to strategic victory then we were stupid to start this.

Only 2 methods available:

1. total committed ground war.
2. Nuclear war.

The people in all governments have ruled out total ground war.

Sole method available. . .

Nuking Iran to prevent them from getting a nuke is the most retarded strategy imaginable

They had even considered an operation to sink the Liberty themselves to protect Israel from American outrage and abandoned that option and went into full media spin.

We should have completely neutered their military after the USS Liberty attack and never had any sort of alliance with them.
