Big talk but.....
Alexander took all of Persia though he was vastly outnumbered. I doubt if we’d have much trouble.

Iran has boosted its defense capabilities based on the weak points of the enemies, Democrats?

In their last big fight, Iran couldn’t manage to best the Iraqi forces to any real degree. They (the Iranians) even resorted to human wave tactics at times.
Human wave tactics are a real good idea when confronting an army of men with full auto weapons.

When these losers learn how to make their own hammers, screws, bolts, jet engines, aircraft, tires, tools, sophisticated plastics, rocket fuel, electronics, crystal radios, semiconductors, wafer fabrication --- then I'll start worrying.
---in short, the ingredients of a 19th century industrial society, who's gonna take them seriously.
OK.
They want to take a huge leap forward in technology in one step?
How about curing cancer, or landing on the moon?
IDIOTS!

Iran warns U.S. of 'crushing' response I actually do wonder how they are going to respond to the 'crushing'.

Since absolutely everything Iran buys or sells has to go through the Straits of Hormuz, we have the capacity to flip a switch and collapse their economy within about two weeks.
They may have some secret plan to inflict great pain on us in response. Two things: if they have such a plan, they are planning to use it whatever we do. And secondly, if we withstand their planned attack and maintain control of the Straits, they are still doomed.
We hold the cards. They don’t. Any war with Iran would be won or lost in Washington, not in the field.

Maybe Putin will lend them the Father of all bombs they just acquired.

I would prefer such impromptu white flags to be streaked with ummmm... let’s just say ‘natural’ colors before we acquiesce.
