[Unless we are willing to kill every single Iranian we should not even be talking about “War” with them. It’s retarded.]


War incorporates a huge spectrum of options. This “war” was completed in a single day:

How many “wars” are we in right now that we don’t seem to be able to “finish”? I am having trouble keeping track. Let’s see there’s Korea, Afghanistan, Iraq, is Syria a different war or just Iraq 2.0? Then there is the war that is really taking place in the Philippines that we aren’t supposed to know about. These are just the ones that come to mind with a brief recollection. I suppose if we add Iran to the list we could just “bundle” about all the ME into one larger War we can’t win. I suppose one could make the case by doing so that we are actually REDUCING the number of wars.

This “Operation” is actually a better data point for my argument than yours. If that “War” was “over in a day” what are we involved in today? It would seem the Iranians never realized they lost a war back then. When a defeated enemy loses an actual war they can’t deny it.

Attacking an enemy who’s killing an enemy is silly.

I know some here get, I dunno, physical? thrills out of wars and battles but SA AND Iran are POS so let them kill each other.

Last I check, the ones with the biggest US kill number was SA at 3000.
