Boots on the Ground in Iran by Mid-Terms?

[Doc7505]

If it isn't possible to bring regime change to Iran without putting US boots on the ground, what percentage of eligible voters will support that policy next November?

Trump will have the last word on those Iranian demands.
As it is Iran is now cut off, it's nuclear aspirations destroyed and buried and it's capacity to defend it's infrastructure gone.
Iran is facing significant challenges in mounting an effective counter-offensive against U.S. and Israeli bombing campaigns. The recent strikes have targeted key military assets and leadership, including the death of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. This has created a power vacuum and increased pressure on Iran's military and political structures.

Which agency would enforce any assurances the US, Iran, and Israel provided? Iran has been attacked twice in the last nine months by Israel and the US while negotiations were taking place.

What we are seeing today in Iran was forecast decades ago; Iranians have been preparing for this fight since 2003, and Trump has not:

Wesley Clark - Wikipedia

"In Clark's book Winning Modern Wars, published in 2003, he describes his conversation with a military officer in the Pentagon shortly after 9/11 regarding a plan to attack seven countries in five years: "'As I went back through the Pentagon in November 2001, one of the senior military staff officers had time for a chat. Yes, we were still on track for going against Iraq, he said. But there was more.'

"'This was being discussed as part of a five-year campaign plan, he said, and there were a total of seven countries, beginning with Iraq, then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and finishing off Iran.'"

As Ronald Regan once said in dealing with the Russians, "Trust but verify". While I don't trust anything Russia says, I trust Iran even less. So, I'm not sure if I know the answer to your question other than the IAEA being allowed unfettered access to Iran and even the slightest transgression of Iran trying to rebuild weapons is met with immediate action.

Trouble is, Trump only has three more years left and we already know democrats would negotiate to death (literally). One thing we would really have to consider is countries such as Russia, China, and North Korea sneaking in nukes to Iran to use against us or Israel, which is really why this Iranian regime must go, even if the war lasts years.

You cannot take any assurances from the Islamic mindset. A basic tenet of Islam is the permissibility of deception in conjunction with infidels. Lying to non Muslims to gain an advantage is part of their schtick.

Yes, any agreement would be almost impossible.

I don't think any member of Donald Trump's family has ever served a single day in the US military. Trump himself received five deferments during the Vietnam War in spite of attending a military academy-type high school.

F Roderick Drumph emigrated to the US to dodge the draft in Germany. Something the Germans still remembered when he tried to go back.

America is sick of foreign occupations

Mission creep again.

14 admitted in the "fog of war" when every government hides its actual loses.

One account I've heard today claimed over 90% of Israelis support their war on Iran.

Hypothetically, if Iran sank a US aircraft carrier with the loss of thousands of lives, who would 90% of Americans blame?

Probably Putin or China.

How is the U.S. or U.S. leaders getting paid by the oil rich sheiks? Where does the money go, exactly?

They don’t
We do their bidding and they jack up the prices of oil

I see a coalition forming Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Dubai and so on will all begrudgingly pay in to military action against the regional bully.
They all understand that once they're in the end result must be the dissolution of the regime in Iran lest there be payback later on. It's more or less like the new Mafia Chief in town assassinating all of his predecessors children so that they don't grow up to hunt him down.
Iran has made a very severe miscalculation sending attack missiles into these regional areas.

Those cocksuckers aren't doing shit. They will fight to the last American drop of blood.

Crypto, $2bn investment funds, and new Trump properties.

Putin would probably take a bow after all the targeting assistance the US has provided to Ukraine

I highly doubt boots on the ground will be needed. Iran is fucked.

Frederick Trump - Wikipedia

"Born and raised in Kallstadt, in what was then the Kingdom of Bavaria, Trump immigrated to the United States in 1885.

"In 1891, he began speculating in real estate in Seattle.

"During the Klondike Gold Rush, he moved to the Yukon, Canada and made his fortune by operating a restaurant and a brothel for miners in Whitehorse

"In 1901, Trump returned to Kallstadt and married Elisabeth Christ.

"As he had failed to complete mandatory military service and notify the authorities of his departure in 1885, the Bavarian government stripped him of his citizenship in 1905 and ordered him to leave.

"Consequently, he returned to the United States with his family.

"Trump worked as a barber and manager of a restaurant-hotel and was beginning to acquire real estate in Queens when he died in the 1918 flu pandemic."

How different would this world be today if Bavaria had kept Fred in 1905?

You're just mad Trump made your prime minister look like a lil *****

Many of the current Iranian leaders and others have seen far worse than what their aggressors have provided so far:

Iran–Iraq War - Wikipedia

"The Iran–Iraq War began with the Iraqi invasion of Iran in September 1980. After eight years of conflict, both countries accepted a ceasefire deal brokered by the United Nations, which became effective in August 1988.

"The war caused around 500,000 deaths (excluding numbers from the related Anfal campaign), making it the deadliest conventional war ever fought between regular armies of developing countries."

I want to see how many MAGAs are willing to put their boots on the ground.
