Don’t need to hit their bunkers. You bomb their parliament when they are in session at the same time take out their president and their nuke days will be over!!!

Throw MOABs at the entrance to every suspected site and there’ll be no air to breathe underground. Or just use neutron weapons.

it's easier to take out all their electric plants and their refineries and make them live in the dark...

civil unrest will take care of the rest

I’m pretty sure we will be finding out how it works, and soon. Else Obama wouldn’t now be talking tough about his “commitment” to keep iran from getting nukes. I believe he finally understands that Bibi has no choice, and has the balls to do it. If we are left in the dark and a non-participant when it goes down, Obama will be down for the count and his people have been telling him how weak and ineffectual he will look if it happens and he finds out vis some news dude on the ground.

The way I look at it you take out the problem! The problem is the government, so you take them out. That would stop their movement towards getting the bomb!

The Iranian government will bring out the IRGC and shoot the rioters. They have done it before.

i know that, but, believe me... when nobody, and i mean NOBODY, has electricity or gas, they can't shoot everybody

take out ALL their electric plants AND substations along with their refinery and make them live in the dark

What if they are wearing night vision goggles? We know they may have that since they are a military group.

If that happened I would declare a state of martial law.

that doesn't mean there won't be massive civil unrest when heaters and/or air-conditioners and stoves and refrigerators no longer work and no lights at night, not even at the police stations or military bases...

no telephones and stores without power to keep food cold or lights on or cash registers running will be a nightmare

even their generators will eventually run out of gas and without a refinery, well

the cops and military with families might want to make sure they are safe more than they want to kill protesters

and like i said, they can't kill everybody

a breaking point will come even if it's within the military that don't want their own loved one to suffer any longer

Their will be civil unrest but the Iranians are experts at quelling any dissent. They are now giving pointers to Assad. When you declare martial law, the military is in charge. In full-scale martial law, the highest-ranking military officer would take over, or be installed, as the military governor or as head of the government, thus removing all power from the previous executive, legislative, and judicial branches of government. This will be on a Tiananmen Square level. The IRGC are not shy on using brute force as they did when elections were held.

From its origin as an ideologically driven militia, the IRGC has taken an ever more assertive role in virtually every aspect of Iranian society.

Command and Control is always a primary target.
