We have got to find a way to shut their missile and drone launching capabilities down now. We have bombed their military infrastructure to the stone age yet they persist.
And now given their suddenly discovered long range missile capability, we have to start asking ourselves what else they have, like nukes. It seems like they are trying to suck everyone in into putting troops on the ground, and that concerns me.
According to the CNN video posted up thread, the are repaired almost immediately. They must have built these facilities knowing they would be struck and planned out a system to quickly repair them. They are not just a hole here or there, but entire cites measuring miles long by miles wide. There are 10 known such cites - there could be more not yet activated.
There is no way an air campaign can find destroy and secure all of these sites, let alone find and secure the enriched uranium.
Further, allowing the Mullahs to continue to rule Iran in some sort of deal, is a fools errand. They will lie cheat, steal, murder until they have rebuilt all that the air campaign destroyed and more.
The day the Dems take over the US again, more pallets of cash will be sent to their good muslim buddies who will be wise to any US attempts to remove their weapons.
We have troops that are either to be used to fight this country's battles on land, or we have make-work and a pretend military, incapable of sustaining more than a handful of dead and wounded before they have to turn and leave the battle/war, due to public & political pressure.
The US suffered 400,000 dead in WWII. The public and the politicians did not demand the leave the fight because too many had died. This could be called WWIII - the Muslim Forever War. They are not going away because too many have died over the 1400 years they have been fighting. But there is every chance that we will by the failure of public and political will.
