Do you know what the MOP actually is? Well here you go.

The United States is transporting 387 "bunker-buster" bombs to its air base on the island of Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean as part of preparations for a possible strike against Iran's nuclear facilities, according to a report in Scotland's Sunday Herald.
The U.S. government signed a contract in January with Superior Maritime Services to transport 10 ammunition containers to Diego Garcia from Concord, California. The shipment includes 195 smart, guided BLU-110 bombs and 192 Blu-117 2,000lb bombs.

Hype.
Obama the Eunuch bombing Iran? Laughable. He’s more likely to order those bombs to drop on Israel. In fact, he’d drop a bomb on his own country before he’d even speak one negative sentence about the Iranians.
I know what the MOP is and I know there’s no guarantee that it will get the job done. Obviously if we’re sending in ABRs, we are simultaneously waging a war against their military, their C3 systems, and their government. Extraction wouldn’t have to be logitically impossible. Seize an airport in the vicinity of the enrichment facilities and use it for example. It would be a good way to obtain valuable intelligence on their nuclear enrichment opertaions as well, intelligence which could later be used to justify the military action. I’m not opposed to blowing things up, oh no, far from it in fact. In this case though, I would prefer to see the ABRs going in and having their way with the Iranians while the rest of our military focuses on degrading Iran’s ability to wage war for the next 10 years or so. Keep in mind, this is all just us BSing because, in reality, we aren’t going to shiite to Iran.
I guess it’s got to this. Obama needs to wag the dog.
An other senerio is:
We abandon Isreal swsoon;
the Iranians taking that as a sign of weakness beginning the new infantada in a big way with Hizbolla and Hamas mass rocket attacks;
Syria moves tank divisions toward the Golan;
Israel responds by going after all parties including Iran;
the US then supplies arms to Iran to defend against the evil Jews;
thus Hussein wins another peace prize for solving the Middle East Problem.
Hopefully, Obama won’t find out about this.
If, and it’s a big if, this is true. Any strike on Iran by this simpering fool of a President will be half assed and done only to distract the public from his real agenda. This should have been done in 1980.

If they have the element of surprise, the chances of success are maximized.

I thought MOP won’t even be ready for deployment until December 2010. It originally was supposed to be ready mid-2010, but Boeing (the clowns who can’t even get a border security fence right) is 6 months behind schedule.
It might not be ready until then, I dont know for sure.
my neighbor’s name is Diego Garcia... i was wondering why so many ups trucks were stopping by his house...
i say the the shiite hits the fan by the orthodox easter weekend... the end of april...
