Ate the civilians going with invasion? No. Catch up.
So wiping out the infrastructure won't wipe out the civilian supply chain for little things like electricity and food and fuel and water?
You need to catch up.
Why would we touch the bridges when Iran is taking the ground war to Kuwait? They won’t even be in country.
We do not need to destroy all of the infrastructure. I do wish the civilians had a way to organize.
BTW, you did NOT quote me. You pulled a Legacy media and made it up.
Looking at it rather coldly / objectively, a “problem” with modern warfare is that these days we are “civilized”, which means that hostile populations (which are not necessarily the majority of an enemy regime’s population) are not convinced they have no alternative but to give up, hopefully under terms in which they can stay alive.
The allies absolutely beat the crap out of Germany, top to bottom, and across the entire country, in WW2. We nuked Japan to minimize the horrors - and luckily their top “theocrat” / near deity / Emporer was a pragmatic person, not a completely whacko zealot himself.
I still maintain that the Iranian regime can rather easily be collapsed with focus on taking out their refined products’ supply. This will create considerable hardship for the population, but, restoring several distillation towers at their refineries is a much easier task than putting all of Iran-Humpty back together if we blast the entire country’s infrastructure the way some advocate. It is certainly a less nasty action than Iran’s taking out Gulf States’ water plants, which they have done in Kuwait to the tune of 90% of Kuwait’s supply. It also tends to be more acceptable to the whole “oil is bad” / green crowd — a large number of people on this planet, unfortunately.
In the long run, either the majority of Iran’s population needs to be effectively in charge, or, perhaps the Gulf States like Saudi Arabia can spend some money to harness a chunk of their rather remarkably large gamer populations to smother Iran with millions of drones. Wouldn’t that be ironic?
