Let's hope our air power works better this time. The raids on the ball bearing plants just slowed them down and didn't have any appreciable long-term effect on war production. The U. S. post-war Strategic Bombing Survey concluded that people were easier to kill than machines.

In the first 24 hours after the start of Desert Storm in 1991, coalition air forces attacked more targets in Iraq than were attacked by the USAAF and RAF in all of 1942 and 1943 in Europe combined. The Iraqis were never able to act effectively in either the first Gulf War or the second. I don't think Iran is any better militarily.
