That's not how that works. The "60 day clock" reset when we engaged in a ceasefire and ended kinetic hostilities. It hasn't restarted yet since Operation Epic Fury has technically ended.

The "60 day clock" would restart all over again with a new wave of bombing and air raids, ostensibly under a new operating name.

Run another couple weeks of targeted bombing. Keep Hormuz out of Iranian control indefinitely. Arm the population and support them with air support and special forces on the ground


I think Trump could make both sides of his base happy if we stick to an air and sea campaign, launching an all out frenzy of destruction from above.

Have Israel, UAE, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the populace organize to commit the ground war aspect with our assets as air support. Isreal would obviously provide the greatest troop strength to ground operations, but if the above mentioned countries could also provide their spec ops and other elite teams to very specific ground targets and missions it could work. You'll never take and hold all territory in a country as large as Iran, but if they concentrated their elite units on specific missions against IRGC they'd make the most headway at toppling the regime.

It's clear we'll need some sort of force on the ground, there's just too many things airplanes and giant ships can't accomplish - like infiltrating bunkers and tunnel systems and destroying the hidden equipment and people within, or taking out leaders on the move and hidden in safe houses. A quick-deploy team of a few hundred elite Isrealis, Emiratis, Saudis, Kuwaitis, etc that can move in and get out quickly would wreck shop and destroy IRGC morale.

That way no one can cry about boots on the ground in the US, whereas Bibi and the Gulf Country leaders don't give a shite about their perception or reelection.

People will probably bitch either way whether there are boots on the ground or not.

So if what you say is true then we do not have to have congressional approval for a new bombing campaign.

Good if we do not have that holding us up.

I`m sure there is a good reason for holding back now, there is a lot information only our top leaders know about now.

A lot of books and movies will be out there soon after this is over.

They need to bomb and keep bombing these until there is no mountain to hide in.

The official channel of Alborz Governorate and Alborz Education Department pinned this message:
Urgent
Please urgently announce in the media and to colleagues
Internet may be completely cut off.
Television may be cut off.
Satellites may broadcast false and dangerous news about the fall of the regime.
Be very careful and rest assured that the enemy is close to destruction, and go to your local mosque.
A widespread and intense media war and psychological operations are likely imminent.

(After Trump's lack of satisfaction with the regime's response, the smell of war is in the air)

For last few nights, there has been lots of drone activity over Tehran and the areas surrounding it. Either we or Israel has been going after something.

I read this as if you touch the uranium we will attack, but if you keep doing what you are doing we wont attack.

Sounds like a perfect place for A10’s and a few AC130 spookys. Any vehicle within 5 miles gets obliterated.

Evidently the Cardboard Ayatollah met with the military. I did not know that shipping boxes could come up with war plans.....

If Iran has to be utterly destroyed to bring down the regime of lunatics then we need to do it.

NEW—Rumors are reportedly circulating in Tehran and other Iranian cities that Mojtaba Khamenei may make a public appearance “next Friday,” with Basij-linked figures portraying him as a possible successor to the regime’s leadership.

Reports remain unconfirmed, with conflicting claims over whether the appearance would be live, prerecorded, or audio-only. Speculation continues to grow due to his absence from public view since the Israeli strike that reportedly killed his father.

Won’t happen. We fight every war with two arms tied behind our backs since WWII.

There’s no realistic scenario where Iran’s regime falls.

There absolutely is. By their own people. The country is something like, 80/20 anti regime.

It'll take awhile, but if the IRGC gets confined to a couple cities, it'll be lights out.

Well, France will probably surrender before they even get there and the Brits, if their ship doesn't break down again, will most likely sit everything out until we take care of all actual threats to the region.
