I love to comment on people who ain’t got a clue...
Back in the late ‘70’s, I was abord the JFK. For some reason we were floating around cuba. We had went to battle stations the night before. I was walking through the hangar bay and noticed hardy any aircraft there.
I made my way to the flight deck.
Every friggin aircraft that was capable of flying was fully loaded and ready to go!
My thought was, “My God, we don’t need a nuke to sink cuba”...
Same thing applies with iran...
We don’t need 10, we only need 1....
Fetterman gets a silver plated beeper from Netantahu....with a message......
"You're never going to be able to negotiate with that kind of regime that has been destabilizing the region for decades already, and now we have an incredible window, I believe, to do that, to strike and destroy Iran's nuclear facilities."
I agree that our carries can waste-away Third World countries without much effort. However, Iran has had 45 years to get ready for attack by the West and they are a very large country with targets that require some serious distance flying and they have some serious air defense capabilities. We would likely get some blows in, but they’ll survive the bulk of it, and then we’ll be back where we started.
