I wish it was that simple.

I think we and by extension Israel are in deep **** on this one. We are fairly alone in the conflict and if/when we hit Iran we are going to be hit back. We know that Russia wants to see the USA get taken down a few notches, as does China and most of their satellite states.

The other side has had several years now to analyze our stealth technology and tactics so we cant be absolutely sure anymore of how effective it will be in a conflict on the scale of Iran.

Iran has more options than we do right now.

Why doesn’t CNN just send the report directly to Iran? Better still, why not interview the Supreme Leader, and ask for his reaction to reports that the US is conducting covert operations in his country?
