>> According to the man who helped plan the first air war against Saddam in 1991, U.S. aircraft, armed with conventional bunker-buster bombs, would be more than enough to wipe out Iran's nuclear and missile facilities, and cripple its ability to command and control its military forces. <<

Good report JP. I agree with this statement. While we don't have the force levels to mount a successful invasion of Iran, we do have more than enough firepower to neutralize the Iranian threat. I'm not a fan of 'nation' building. I am of the opinion that if you threaten us we have the self defensive right to destroy the entire threatening country and LEAVE it destroyed. Just my $.02

I agree but with Russia/China backing Iran how much leeway do we truly have? I don't think we're going to use nuke bunker buster's on them, though we should before they destroy Israel
