Do you think the Persians really want the crazies running Iran? Self determination only occurs with civilized leadership.

Just let the Israelis take it after that.
If this is the pretext let's game it out. We do this, likely with some supporting strikes focused on preempting Iranian retribution. Iran gets off a few dozen ballistic missiles at US interests in the region. We respond in more or less kind.
Is that not likely the end of it? Basically, how can Iran genuinely escalate to a level that makes this a quagmire? I'm not saying it's impossible - history indicates it might even be likely - but I just don't see it. I assume the DC crowd thinks Iran will not devolve into theocratic civil war (the conventional wisdom for post-revolution Iran for decades in DC), which would also limit that potential.
Part of the reason Israel is acting now is because they spent the last 3-4 years neutralizing proxies that Iran would use during this saga. Those same hobbled proxies will be limited in how they can mount attacks against US interests.

And a degraded patron state in Russia that just had to let Syria fall as they could not sustain it with their involvement in Ukraine.
China is the wild card but they’re historically pretty hands off when it gets kinetic.

I’m always down for protecting American hegemony and creating power vacuums for us and our allies to fill

There are finite resources in the world making competition for them a zero-sum game.

Why did Trump nix the killing of the Ayatollah if it really is about regime change?
Posted on 6/16/25 at 7:52 pm to Bunk Moreland
I mean the Iran regime did say multiple times when they got a nuke they would immediately use it on Israel.
Posted on 6/16/25 at 7:55 pm to boosiebadazz
How long before Iran says NO MAS. Over under 3days.

Let's settle down jbird.
The B-2's are airborne from Whiteman. Tankers are dragging them across the pond now. The timing makes sense. Sundown in Iran tomorrow is around noon central time.

Kc46 is junk. Nobody in there right mind would use that POS for a strike.

Thought they had already sent 6 B-2’s to Diega Garcia last week ?
