If Trump destroys Iran’s Kharg Island petroleum complex it will set back Iran’s economy a decade or more. China, Japan, Pakistan and Malaysia would all have to look for new producers. The price of oil would rise and then stabilize as OPEC increases production. For that matter, present Iranian production is not all that much but the effect would still be substantial in Iran itself.
Aaawwww, I love your dad. A true Patriot, right to the end.
Eight hours? I was thinking 35 minutes.
What day is their special day ?
That, exactly, is the strategy. The Mullahs will try to protect their mosques rather than their radar sites.
Everyone is reading this wrong. To them a “cultural site” is their bomb making factories and their Nuke research buildings.
War is war. Tough luck. President Trump should go “Sherman” if he feels like it.
Islamic terrorists hide their strategic weapons and arms under mosques. They’re probably building their nuke down there.
Your dad was right.
That’s true and hopefully, the muzzies have not destroyed that already.
I highly doubt that any cultural site would get targeted but to say we cant do it? Hell no... well retaliate however we choose.
Does anyone know what their “cultural sites” are?

Iran (Persia) has a rich long history.
Yes, they absolutely do. They are an ancient country and yes, historic sites but cultural? Maybe historic and cultural mean the same - I don’t know. I wouldn’t say our sites in the US are cultural...We’re not an old country and we have many interesting sites but cultural? I guess when look at it that way, those pictures you linked would be more cultural. I love arguing with myself. I’m tired and my back and hip are in pain so I’m leaving you all for tonight!
But before I go, I will NOT PLAN my next vacation to any of those sites!!
Try Petra in Jordan
I don’t think you understand much of Iranian history or the dynamics in country now or you wouldn’t make that statement.
Hitting anything not directly related to culture of the current regime actually helps them and will disheartening the Trump supporting Iranians in country now who revere those sites and hate the Mullahs.
And im pretty sure that’s something Trump knows also.
“”Try Petra in Jordan””
For some reason that has always appealed to me....it is very interesting to read about it.
We're being actively attacked by a declared enemy.
Try those Dems for treason and execute them. Every last one of them...
