Not when your armed forces are streched to breaking point it's not, not when your country risks being financially crippled it's not and not before the international community makes a descion it's not.
Have you considred the implications of going straight into combat with Iran?
IF AS MUCH 'CONSIDERATION' WENT INTO THE 'IMPLICATIONS' OF AS NATURAL A THING AS SEX, MANKIND WOULD BECOME EXTINCT.
THE ONLY CONSIDERATION HADJIS WITH GUNS AND NUKES UNDERSTAND AND RESPECT (AND THUS DESERVE) IS SIMPLE, UNADULTARATED FORCE. AND I DON'T NECESSARILY MEAN COMBAT. RATHER, BOMB 'EM (AT LEAST THEIR INDUSTRIAL INFRASTRUCTURE TO BEGIN WITH) BACK TO THE DARK(ER) AGES.
I'D GLADLY PAY UP TO $10/GALLON AT THE PUMPS TO LIVE TO SEE THAT.
NOW GO MEET THE DAY.
Only the dead have seen the end of war.
Let us win glory for ourselves, or yield it to others.
No you see I am thinking like a solider somebody who has actually seen combat and planned combat missions ( something you have never done). Now if we were going to just go and f**k everyone and everything in Iran the no planning necessary might want to pace yourself maybe but depnds on your stamina.
Now war does actually take a bit of planning for example have you heard of IAEA rule 44 ehich states that no country can NEVER EVER bomb an operational nuclear facility even in a war situation. How do you get past that situation smart ass? I mean I assume you want to stop the production of the nukes? How do attempt to keep Israel out of this conflict? How do you stop the terrorists flooding in from Iraq? What do you do if Iraq denied you access to cross the border? how do you find the troops to police Iraq, The US, Afghanistan and fight a war in Iran? How are you going to fund the war? how do prepare your air force to fight against a country that has an actual air force ( US has not done that for many years? how do you deal with Irans navy? How many units of special forces do you need how long before the invasion will they be entering the country? are you going to go for a land, air or amphibous assault? will you lead with heavy artillery or troop advamcemnet, how many troops can you afford to lose in terms of securing areas you have captured, are you ready for a chemical attack? how long will it take to mobolise you attack units? what units are speicialists for this type of battle? who commands the coalition? will certain groups be exempt from top commanders?, timescale?, Plan B, C and D just in case and finnally exit strtegy?
Thats how you fight and win a war you don't just load up the planes and got for it. Again we wnt your way in Iarq and what happend 2000 Dead American soldiers mainly Marines and from what I ahve seen from the US in action you need your marines so you need to train them up get them ready for your war now I don't know about the US but in the UK it takes 36 weeks to become a marine ( thats around 9 months) do you have that time if we follow your plan?
Let the UN and the real men deal with Iraq and Iran if we need to kill everyone we will get in touch with you.
I also would be assuming that when the time comes you will be first in line at the recruiting office are you rprepared to die for your country? because this is about more thne $10 worth of gas.
hadji_hunter said this in post #1 : TIME TO NUKE THE HADJIS IN IRAN.
I'm for some kind of military action, be it us or another Country doing it,
but Nukes are too extreme.
You can't take out millions of innocent Iranians like that. Some innocent Iranians get killed in a bunker buster air strike, that's part of war, and acceptable, but the numbers would be low.
A nuke would kill way too many peeps and send radiation all over that area.
And our troops are in Iraq and Afghanistan and would get the radiation.

So nukes are a bad deal.
OF COURSE YOU ARE RIGHT. I WAS JUST BEING GRANDILOQUENT. NEVERTHELESS, BOMB 'EM, BOMB 'EM, BOMB 'EM. BOMB THE NUCLEAR FACILITIES, BOMB THE MILITARY FACILITIES, BOMB THE FALLAFEL-MAKING FACILITIES. THEY BUILD MORE, WE BOMB MORE. THE NIGHTHAWKS CAN EASILY PENETRATE IRANI AIR DEFENSES AND TAKE CARE O' B'INESS.
LET 'EM KNOW AND WITNESS FIRST-HAND THAT THE WEST WILL NO LONGER TOLERATE EVIL-WITH-NUKES IN THE NAME OF ISLAM!
SIMPLE, REALLY. THE TIME FOR TALK IS NO-LONGER CHEAP.
Only the dead have seen the end of war.

BREAKING NEWS: Iran ends voluntary cooperation with U.N. nuke watchdog, plans uranium enrichment talks with Russia.

Iran ending voluntary cooperation surprises you? I only ask because they said this would happen if they were sent to the UNSC.
I would not say Iran and Russia are allies as such yes Russia has major business deals with Iran as does China but they both voted to send Iran to the UNSC hardly something an ally would do. In fact Russia has been the only country to try and stop this unilaterally it failed but at least it tried.
Mind you bobming will be a tough call for the USAF because it is likely that not one US pilot will have been in a position wher they are beiing shot at from the gropund and being engaged by an opposition air force, you can train for it simulate it but it is not like the real thing.
Alo looks like the US is going it alone the other countries have ruled out war and the US needs to keep Israel out like they, sorry we did in the Persian war
Well you see it's very difficult to do business with Iran because of the ILSA if you di business with Iran you can't do business witht the US now of course China is big and strong enough to do business with whoever it fancies.
However there are a few indivdual companies that do business with/in Iran:
Haliburton
GE
Siemens
Phillips
Finnish construction
If you have a 401 K pension plan your mopney will have been in Iran and Libya.
