I have no problem with punitive war. The more of them that die and the less of our side the better. If you are going to war make it war and don’t worry about what people think when you kill a large number of them.
War is not a game. It should not be treated as such. It should be fast and deadly to the enemy. I don’t think we need to send in the troops. But if they are needed they can be brought up quickly with these fleets.
For their troops we have cluster bombs that would knock down their troops very quick. So I don’t believe our troops have to be in Iran. Something I think would be stupid. Let them rebuild themselves and take charge of governing themselves after we destroy the government if they want to attack us.
But we need to be prepared just in case.
During the Soleimani funeral procession, a handful of m-80s would have been sufficient.
