The autistic person in me who has spent days trying to figure out how to get troops into Iran without insane losses kinda wants to see how this plays out.
But I can’t find a “good” way to accomplish the task, so I’m really hoping it doesn’t come down to it.
So far the only way I see it being done without extensive US casualties, calls for completely destroying Iran’s energy network and waiting for them to capitulate and that will come with enormous loss of civilian lives.
I hope I’m wrong or that we find a diplomatic solution.
There is no good way to do this. They’ll take extensive casualties ingressing into the country and soon as they’re on the ground they’ll be swarmed with Shaheeds. The US is not prepared for drone warfare. It’s really as simple as that.
I’ve seen nukes floated a few times as a concern. The concern for Americans, and trump is that the war is in the middle east now and affecting troops and allies there. Should nukes be used, it most certainly will lead to domestic attacks withing America’s borders. Rather than be the end of war, like in japan, it’s would likely be an escalation.
That either leads to civilian death and injuries as well as a climate of fear, or/and rounding up all the Muslim people (irrespective of country or sect) similar to Japanese camps in the past. So, again, the echoes of WW2 are coming.

They really really want to use nukes, a parachute regiment in deaths to instigate that is no great loss if they get to push the big red button
