I pray for peace. We’ve done all we can with air power. Iran’s nuclear and rocket capabilities are gone. Sending troops would just get our boys killed for Israel. No deployment without an extradition treaty to bring pedophiles hiding there to justice. Securing the Strait? Impossible without hundreds of thousands of troops. Our boys coming home in boxes for Israel would not go over well here.

For a very well-reasoned but thoroughly pessimistic view of the war in Iran:

No, we haven't. The air war should continue as long as Iran can still launch rockets at Israel and its Arab neighbors, not to mention Diego Garcia. We can end the bulk of the air campaign when Iran can only launch about 1 missile per week. Then hunt it down and destroy it.

Securing the Strait? Impossible without hundreds of thousands of troops.

No, I'm guessing that when you write "troops", you mean Army type troops. They're not needed to secure the strait. We need to find the missile, drone, and cruise missile sites that threaten the strait and destroy them.

I hope President Trump doesn't make the same mistake as President George Herbert Walker Bush and stop before the job is done.
