Back up a bit there. Even if we took out Syria, Iran and Iraq we are still losing ground to extremist Muslims. Things wouldn’t calm down all that much. But when governments are supporting terrorism we should take them out.

I just don’t see how we can fight Syria and Iran without the support of the people.

Steve,

Correction: if we took out Syria, Iran and Iraq we made a lot of grounds against extremist Muslims. I don't think anybody will dispute that. When you take out Hizballah, Hamas and Islamic Jihad supporters it's only a matter of time to stamp them out, especially if the Israeli/Palestinian problem is solved by virtue of no more terrorist intimidation.

The LONG WoT will continue but we would have advanced by leaps and bounds.

I just don’t see how we can fight Syria and Iran without the support of the people.

We're not going to be "fighting" them. It sounds like ground troops, invasion, long term occupation, etc.. None of that, a punishing air campaign for a week or so to wipe out Iran’s nuke industry, air force, navy, and their bases. It's about time to do it before the new mobile, sophisticated air defense system from Russia is delivered and deployed. We certainly don't want POWs in Iranian hands.

I told you in a previous post that the American people will understand that this bombing is not a protracted war a la Iraq and that the action was needed to knock off the enemies of Iraq and above all, to implement the Bush Doctrine.

No land invasion but rather a massive Air Campaign for a week or two on Iran nuclear facilities and military infrastructure just to show them that we can punish them anytime and punish them hard. An intensive air campaign will teach the terrorist Islamic regime in Tehran a lesson that they will not forget, and then Syria Baath terrorist regime will learn quickly to stop messing around.
