When the Iranian people decide it's time for regime change, there will be regime change.
Until then, nothing will change. On X, I see reports that Iranian women are starting to fight back against the morality police....Good, ladies! Start carrying rocks, use those to get pistols, use the pistols to get rifles and use the rifles to get freedom! I wonder where the Iranian 'men' are.
Under no circumstances, should US boots touch the ground. Israeli boots would be a very, very bad idea as well.
However, I just read a comment that got me thinking. The US has the only weapons that might be able to deal with Fordow -our GBU-57 MOPs which are launched from B2 bombers. These are weapons that Israel does not have, nor do they have the capability of dropping a 30,000 weapon from sufficient altitude to impart the kinetic energy needed to penetrate the rock.
So, should the US drop them? Sell the bombs to Israel, and lease them a B2 for the weekend (much as the US did with the Flying Tigers in WWII)? I suppose a crew could be put together from recently retire B2 driver - and imagine the stories they could tell at the VFW!
Or not? Not our war, really.
But, shutting down Fordow (which is 100% a non-medical nuke plant) is a good thing for the entire world. Nukes in the hands of barbarians that revel in the thought of the end times is suicidal for the rest of us. Iran is not a rational actor: The threat of mutually assured destruction has little consequence for people that sit around waiting for their end times.
And if the US doesn't do it with a MOP, then Israel might feel it necessary - with some nukes.
