@icom706 - without a navy, air force, and nuclear capability, what exactly can an unleashed Iran achieve?
They can keep launching rockets, similar to the Houthis or Hezbollah, and cause causalities - but even that is degraded.
The argument here is not that we can’t degrade those capabilities, but that we paused in our efforts. They have nothing; they can send more children to clear minefields, similar to the Iran-Iraq conflict, but that’s about it.
Some of you do not seem to comprehend what Iran can do if China and Russia allow them to really take the gloves off.
They aren't going to do jack SHIT.
Now, what is almost certain is that Iran will continue to be a nuisance for some time to come. Even if the assaholahs and the IRGC are deposed or killed, there are smaller players who can make pests of themselves.This message has been edited. Last edited by: egregore,

Sit back with your favorite libation, a cigar and watch over 12 minutes of a stealth bomber blowing up Iranian mobile missile launchers, anti aircraft trucks, radar site and Muslims

I was wondering what the ordinances was, also. No wonder we’re running out of bombs if it takes 50 of them to kill 15 vehicles. Plus, they don’t explode upon impact with the ground, only metal? I’m probably just obtuse.

I provided a paywall article from the WSJ, then I linked the AP.
I’m positive that the AP doesn’t view Trump that favorably, but even if it’s an incredible deal, we are fighting a war right now with a country in the ME that was a super close friend of the US.
Things can change, especially in that part of the world - I don’t like the possibility of any nuclear deal with any country in the ME.
