Did you think I did not know geography? I'd still destroy them before they destroy us.

Let's get real. I lived in Iran two years before the Revolution. My wife is Persian, as are many FReepers.
Iranians in America vote 90% Republican, since they loathe anyhting Democrat and associated with Carter. I don't know why you want to kill them.
Most Iranians are innocent. Period. Any baby IS innocent.
Yes I see your point about the lack of all-out resistance. But neither the Germans nor the Japanese overthrew their Governments. Yes we killed a whole bunch of Germans (after TWO world wars) and Japanese. But we didn't wipe them out. That's not us. Our enemies are genocidals. We are morally superior to Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Saddam or Ahmadinejad.
Beside all this morality we simply aren't going to commit genocide. Dream on. The USA is not going to kill 70 Million humans... and by this outdoing any genocidal Totalitarian of the 20th century. Get real.
We will and HAVE to destroy the Islamic Republic. We will overthrew and kill the regime, it's representatives and the Revolutionary Guards. We might split up Iran's regions... whatever we do, we aren't going to commit genocide.
This is still the USA and not a Bolshevik Totalitarian meatgrinder.
