We’d better hope this doesn’t turn out like Iwo Jima.

Almost 7,000 US soldiers killed, almost 20,000 wounded!

He can suit up then. The US doesn’t need Kharg Island as much as Senator Graham does.

Yep, incredibly stupid statement by Graham. He is ex-military, maybe he could lead the charge!

I think Linda was sleeping the day Iwo Jima was covered in High School history class or he was day dreaming about the captain of the football team

There are few things more nauseating in politics than hearing this kind of sh!t from a warmongering JAG lawyer.

I take great comfort from knowing that a mighty warrior like Linda is calling the shots.

We? Does he have a mouse in his pocket?

I’m beyond tired of politicians who are more than willing to gamble with someone else’s life.

Yep, the losses at Iwo Jima and Okinawa convinced us to use nukes on Japan instead of invading.

Exactly. Okinawa and Iwo Jima were slaughterhouses.

Hoping all this is a distraction to get Republican Guard to focus attention and foce there while a revolt comes from within led by regular Iranian army.

Taking Kharg Island will be a lot easier than Iwo Jima was!
