I can say that most who have been in war do not wish for war.

I was taught as a kid to be careful what you wish for as you might just get your wish. I forgot.

And I only wished to come home with a few bullet wounds, too. I got my wish.

Maybe they haven't heard about the F-117 and the B-2 Bomber. They fly at night, cannot be seen on radar and can put bombs in places that Ahmadinejad has never thought of.
Then there are the cruise missiles.
They must have hired Baghdad Bob as their PR man in the Middle East.
They had better hope they don't miscalculate and drop one of their missiles in Iraq or close to Israel.

I'm just wondering where should we put that WalMart when we are done with Iran?

Utterly ridiculous. First of all the Iranians have nothing to put up in the air that could resist the Israel Air Force, and US Air forces could take of Israel in 30 minutes. So without an air force Iran would have to fight air from the land, that means Radar guides missles and guns. Might take a while to get them but once the radar turns on those sites become targets, once the air defences are taken out the 52's and other bombers come in a wipe out the ground forces.

I hope the Iranians really believe this crap they are putting out, they had a date with US forces for a long long time. Jimmy chickened out I don't think that will happen again.

First off I don't think Wal-Mart would fit there. And if I answer your question I'll be banned from writing on these boards.
Suffice it to say that the sun doesn't shine there. That little Persian would have a hard time walking.

No Israel stopped Israel by not using it's infantry to protect it armor. And by not attacking aggressively on day one. Israel thought air and armor could win without infantry, very foolish, infantry wins (conventional) wars. Period.

I can't get it to direct link to that video of Slim Pickens riding the nuke from the B-52.
It's the 4 th video down the list.

Good question. As the war on terror has evolved, it has become apparent that the only way to turn the tide is to destroy the military complexes of Iran and Syria. Make them worry about rebuilding their own defenses instead of meddling in Lebanon, etc. Blow up their entire air forces and see how much money and how many missiles continue to flow to Hamas and the Hezbos!
