Why doesn’t he order air strikes on Iran? I would not hesitate to kill the ones threatening me so why is he holding back? Iran if their leaders were still alive after the airstrikes would just continue with their terrorism BUT they would not have nuclear bombs.

Because your man obama promised to use the full military power of the US to prevent that.

It’s at the limit of the range of their air force, Iran is only 4% smaller than Alaska, the targets are widely-spread-out, and more.

It’s an extraordinarily-complex problem.

Plus they have to fly through Jordan, Syria, Iraq (not much defense there now, of course) or route through Saudi Arabia, which they supposedly support.

The best they may be able to hope for is attacking missile sites.
