re: #219 albusteve

take away their fuel, roads and air cover…they aren’t going anywhere

Didn’t they say that about Viet Nam too? Roads in Iran? Ha ha. They are so used to doing without. They just built their Superhighways in the past 5 or so years. When my husband was in the Iranian military they had to ride mules up into the mountains for guard duty. He said that it got so cold at night on duty that they grew beards but they would freeze on your face. They can do without. Remember they sent teenagers to walk in mine fields in the war with Iraq to clear them? They know that the US can kick their butt conventionally but a war with them will not be conventional.
