This guy is trying to isolate Iran just like North Korea is isolated. It is his strategy.
He wants to be isolated, then make his nukes in peace and then start threatening his neighbours with them. And that is the best case scenario. Worst case he gives a few to Iraqi insurgents, a few to Hamas and whomever else is on his list.
I am sorry to say, that methinks we are going to have to take him out. Perhaps Bibi will get to be Prime Minster and will be a good ally in the act. But the US is going to need a draft and we are going to have to occupy the whole region with 5-8 million troops.
I am sure a Democrat as President will handle that just fine /sarcasm.
We don't have the large number of young men to do that kind of thing anymore. You can't send over grandpa or grandma very often, and stripping all able bodied men out of the country would not work that well.
Look at all the problems the Reserve call up has caused. If the President did that, there would be a mass revolt. We don't want a conscript Army, to many morale and training problems.
