There is zero reason we have not carpet bombed every single city on the cost and power plants. We do not have to wipe out the country, but b-52s should be dropping every last dumb bomb we have across any coastal establishment.

Any civilians left there now, we should just consider adversaries.

Has that video been verified?

The Free Yemeni Movement has been long gone since the early 60s

What made the British brave while the French were cowards was the English Channel and nothing more.

Fox News reports that Israel is expected to join any major expansion of U.S. military operations against Iran should President Trump authorize one.

U.S. officials say Washington has avoided striking targets near Tehran and Iranian nuclear facilities since July 7, though that restraint could end if full-scale operations resume.

Reports have emerged of Iranian troop deployments in Khuzestan Province near the Iraqi border and the border with Kuwait. Although Iraq separates Iran and Kuwait by roughly 50 km, some people have started making stupid claims that Iran is preparing for a ground assault on Kuwait.

That's simply not realistic. Iran is preparing for all possible scenarios, including a potential U.S.-led ground invasion through Iraq or Kuwait. That's why there has been a noticeable buildup of troops along its western frontier, not because it's planning to invade Kuwait.

France holds the most successful military record in European history, participating in 50 major wars and winning approximately 109 out of the 169 most significant battles fought since 387 BC. Decisive victories include the Hundred Years' War (1337–1453), the Thirty Years' War (1618–1648), and the French Revolutionary Wars (1792–1802)


Isn’t France winning the French Revolution a bit like claiming LSU is undefeated in the spring game?

France hasn’t been a legitimate military threat since Verdun. It’s not even debatable. They would have lost WW1 if the US hadn’t entered. They were bled white during WW1. They were defeated by the Prussian military during the late 19th century and WW2 was an abysmal performance by the French military

TAMPA, Fla. — U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) completed another round of strikes against Iran at 9 p.m. ET, July 20.
U.S. forces struck Iranian military command centers, maritime capabilities, missile and drone launch sites, and air defense systems to degrade Iran's ability to continue attacking commercial vessels flowing through the Strait of Hormuz.
Commercial vessel transits through the vital international maritime corridor continue. Since early May, CENTCOM forces have helped facilitate the transit of approximately 900 commercial vessels and 450 million barrels of crude oil.
American forces remain postured and prepared to hold Iran accountable for unwarranted aggression toward civilian mariners seeking to freely and openly transit the strait.

Preposterous, the French military used the Horizon blue uniform even after numerous examples of it being ineffective in modern conflict, trench systems were inadequate at best, and got men slaughtered by the thousands being wedded to the notion of offensive at any cost. The Belgians and British saved France at Ypres in 1914. France has never recovered from WW1

A knockout blow that broke the back of the Revolutionary Guard

The B-52 bomber obliterated a missile field belonging to the Revolutionary Guard's Aerospace Base in the city of Tabriz

The military base has been wiped off the map

If Iranian troops are concentrating near the Iraq border, then you know what/where to target.
