"But he noted that any assault on Iranian nuclear facilities "would be primarily an air attack. It's not going to involve massive use of ground forces."

Um, what about 100,000 Iranian and Syrian infantry swarming across into Iraq, Joe?

The Syrian infantry isn't going anywhere. Not with the IDF champing at the bit behind them.

Sounds like a target rich environment to me.

I wonder if the big operations to seal up the Iraqi borders in recent months has anything to do with this...?

That's what cluster bombs are for.

They won't get through!

We have the strongest military in the world today, manned highly trained, dedicated professionals who will not allow themselves to be "swarned" by Syrians and Iranians.

Just be thankful they're not Mexicans, 'cause we can't seem to be able to stop Mexicans.

Umm, we had a plan for that with Russia and N.A.T.O. -- neutron bombs. :-)

Hey, since we're talkin' bout nukes anyway...

They are sitting ducks. The Iranians don't have the ability to have regional air superiority even. Conventional forces would get really whacked if they moved. We're not talking jungle here. The border with Iraq is flat open ground. If you don't control the air or have air cover you're a sitting duck.

100,000 Iranian and Syrian infantry swarming would be nice, actually. With superior air power, that would reduce Syrian and Iranian infantry by, oh, say - 100,000.

I'll assume that is a joke. But if they want to make it easy for us let it be.
