If you scrub the nation-building, things could be expedited.
However, Bush listened to the liberals too closely, and Obama is himself the ultimate expression of self-destructive liberalism.
Israel will do the bombing, not us.
Leaving only the months of ground combat and years of occupation.
Precisely correct.
Even the very, very deeply buried facilities could be disabled by taking out all water, air and electrical supplies. With good intelligence one could even know where all physical access points are.
And NOBODY can convince me that a sustained campaign, dozens or hundreds of sorties by B-1 and B-52 loaded with a variety of ordinance would not be able to complete destroy every last vestige of an Iranian Nuke program.
Unfortunately, Israel does not have sufficient ordinance carrying capacity to do this without resorting to Nukes or boots on the ground.
