      It's a bit about conforming to history. The management of Iran is already located back in the dark ages, why not put the economics of the country in the same status? There is no reason Iran should be allowed to deliver such a vicious and random attack on the citizens of Israel. Individual citizens should not be hurt but Iran should be rendered economically unworkable. It's time to neuter Iran.

      Bach, please inform Mr. Netinyuhu he has my full assent. Proceed with your plans. 😉

      FIFY. There is no possible way to target a regime without hurting some individual citizens.

              Not sure how accurate this analysis is, but it’s as good as any I’ve read or seen.

              Don’t know what this guys background is.

                Saw a comment that France will not support the Israeli retaliation against Iran.

                  Taking out their ballistic missile capability sounds pretty proportional to me. Restrained even.

                                    Iran will turn out to be a paper tiger ala Iraq. It's such a shame, there are millions of decent Persians living there that don't want this. I have had the pleasure of speaking with many Irani's during my vacays in Mexico. This is what they all say. They are ashamed for their country. Israel and our tech could neuter them for a long time if there was a will. But what stops them from crippling the oil in the meantime? Need to break out my Risk game and develop a strategy.

                                      But isn't that the idea? Cut off the head of the snake if you ever want peace in the middle east? Russia be dammed. They are weak and haven't the power to muster two fronts let alone the one they are floundering in. I am sorry, but it's starting to become time again to shed American blood. And be done with it.

                                        I assume Putin has total control of the buttons. Has anyone laid thought on his last gasp intentions if he ever becomes terminal? Will he die peacefully or unleash the Kraken just so he can see it? Or will it be our new policy to eventually let him have his Kiev pie and let him feel satisfied and let him know there will be no further advancement of that? Would that satisfy his craving to kill and conquer?
