Operation Epic Fury

1. So long as the IRGC is calling the shots in Iran any agreement is completely useless. They are soulless barbarians who will continue to terrorize normal Iranians and won’t end their maniacal quest to have a nuclear weapon which they will use immediately. Anyone who thinks otherwise is hopelessly delusional. Trump should have finished the job that he started.

      Suit up, fly over and show us how it’s done!

   2. Pretty tough without sending in troops. Even snatching the uranium would have been hella risky. If they violate the deal even a little Trump will start bombing again there’s no doubt.

2. Regime change is key.

   1. Exactly right! But how can that be accomplished? As much as the Iranian people hate the current regime, they don’t have the wherewithal to take on the IRGC gangsters who are well renowned for dealing harshly with any sign of dissent.

      1. I just read that Israel has killed the newest Hamas leader who was among those who planned Oct. 7 …

         Perhaps the new phase of regime change is via systematic assassination? Sure, whack a mole. But it’s a strategy … one that Trump and Netanyahu have already used to good effect. Oh wait!? We don’t do that. That’s not who we are. That’s barbaric and illegal. That’s no civilized ROE! … every former FAILed POTUS would say while calling Islam the Religion of peace. Yeah, yeah, and drone warfare isn’t exactly kosher either … right? The US is now quite drone-capable.

         The ONLY ROE I personally authorize is to totally and completely eliminate any and all Islamic Terrorists Theocracies anywhere on earth … by any means necessary.

         Considering that thousands of unarmed Iranian civilians died in the streets during the Jan protests, I think it is insulting to say they don’t have the “wherewithal”. The brutal IRGC have all the weapons, the civilian protestors just had banners to wave. Would you have the ‘wherewithall’ ie: “courage” to protest under such circumstances?

         1. Just to set the record straight my comment regarding Iranians not having the “wherewithal ” to topple the lunatic regime did not refer to a lack of courage. Far from it. Iranian citizens do not have the weapons, the organization or, so far as we know, the leader to pull off such an enormous feat. As for me personally …considering the circumstances, I would most certainly not jump into revolt mode.

            1. @Biffjr:
               After I sent that message, it occurred to me that you maybe meant what you just stated above. Well, glad that is cleared up.

   2. Regime change? Ee, grim!

3. I am of the mind that you keep vaporizing Ayatollahs until they find with self preservation.

   1. “…you keep vaporizing Ayatollahs…”

      Must agree, Mr. Mole sir. You smoke every hard line cleric that sticks his head up, sooner or later you’ll find a guy who wants to make a deal. Then you smoke every other cleric who doesn’t like your guy.

      I also think it wouldn’t be the worst thing to ship millions of one-shot Liberator pistols to the citizens of Iran, for use when the IRGC goons are feeling feisty. Not so easy to suppress the peasant population when they shoot back.

      Best of all, no American casualties. Pretty sweet.

      1. I was just going to post that this situation is exactly what the Liberator pistol was designed for.

         I do disagree that smoking every hardline cleric until you reach one willing to make a deal will be effective, though. The Islamic sect running Iran is an apocalyptic death cult. They can’t be deterred from nuking everybody else because that’s their goal, not a threat or tactic. They aren’t afraid of death because they’re suicidal fanatics. There’s no “vaporizing Ayatollahs until…” You have to vaporize all of them and all their armed thugs. Then and only then can the people of Iran be left to decide their own fate.

   2. Yup.
      Kill all of them.
      Hell must be fed.

4. Regime Change is key in every modern nation. We’re all being led by gangsters and murderers

5. Even if true, it’s not a “huge win.” It leaves many people wondering what this entire adventure achieved.

   1. Maybe it showed the Chicoms how vulnerable their energy supply is?
      It was also a learing experience for the US armed forces?
      The Israelis prolly had fun and learned even more?
      I’d guess that some of the Sunni countries in the area are going to take steps to harden their own defences?

      It definitely made a lot of Canadian belly-ackers bitch even more about the price of gas while sipping 2$ bottles of Perrier.

   2. Kinda like saying many people wondered what Japan’s surrender on the deck of the USS Missouri achieved.

      1. This won’t be a surrender. That’s the problem.

6. I’m not buying it. No way does Trump sign a 60 day ceasefire *without* a nuclear deal included.

   1. It’s incrementalism that permits some subsidence in the price of oil and enables more time to negotiate with a completely intractable bunch of demons. Meanwhile Israel will continue to whittle away at the IRGC.
