This would be the perfect time to bomb Iran back to the pre-nuclear age; they won't be expecting it just now.

Israel usually handles this kind of thing for us. That way we can denounce it and proclaim ourselves shocked--shocked!--to hear what they've done.

Look at you like what? Half-grin and half-disapproval?
If we could selectively bomb the mullahs and the Ayatollah into little glass ornamants, I'd be ever so pleased.
But a good number (probably a majority) of the Iranian people are not our enemies.

I agree with KathyK. About half of the Iranians are under-25-YOs who are sick of the theocracy, and will be the future leaders and citizens of a (hopefully) democratic republic or constitutional monarchy.
Just take out the nuke plants, okay?

Like what? Doesn't my expression convey the impression of stunned awe at your brilliance?
I rather like the equation: Iran=radioactive glass parking lot.

I always look this stunned when someone reads my mind.
Now everybody repeat after me "I'm shocked, shocked that there is a millitary action going on in Iran."

Are those F-15's?

From the east, from sun,
Hellfire missiles screaming home--
Mullahs rend their shirts

Aw, c'mon, Kathy and Mikal: did I need to specify "please minimize civilian casualties"? Obviously, I'm hoping for a surgical strike on the nuclear facilities. I love Iranians: I just don't want their crazy leaders to have nukes.

In the air, I see
Planes, and--are those
yarmulkes?
Holy shit! Kaboom!

In the skies I see
C130's I believe
With drilling rigs
and pipe whose diameter
is just slightly larger
then the nukes diameter
sorry about the pentameter

To do serious damage to Iran's nuclear sites requires a lot more resources than Israel has. They have indicated they may try something anyway.
Rumors have also come out of Washington.
Of course Iranian allied militias sit astride our supply lines and around the Green Zone in Iraq, so there are complications,
100 to 200 a barrel for oil is also possible.
And as for bombing someone "back to the stone edge" that is genocide and rejected by our and Israelis military. It's the sort of thing Iran and North Korea might do. We work hard to directly target the threats.

Thanks, John. I said "back to the pre-nuclear age," which implies rather a different thing that either the stone age or the stone "edge."

"Yarmulkes" . . .
Heh.

Flap reads there are about 80 presumed sites in Iran that may be involved in their nuclear program.
About 5-6 B-2's with precision munitions should do the job nicely.
