Ah, so that's the mission...destroying Iran's conventional missile capability.
Dude can't open his mouth without lying.
LOL you cannot post without lying. His first sentence framed the question "why are we attacking Iran." His second sentence he promised to answer that question. In the third sentence, he restated consistent US policy for the last 47 years: Iran is trying to build nuclear weapons and the USG will not allow that to happen.
When it comes to spin, you are a first class tactician, but really suck at strategy. You waste your wordsmithing prowess by picking literally the worst possible battlefield to fight on. It's like you do it on purpose, just to see if you can polish up a fine sheen on a soft turd.
I've made plenty of supposedly indefensible claims here. We didn't destroy Iran's nuclear program. We couldn't do so without ground troops. The end of the 12-Day War was just a lull. Iran wouldn't agree to another ceasefire until their demands were met. All completely ridiculous, and all turned out to be completely true. You just didn't notice because you'd already moved on to your next lie.
Now, lo and behold, here you are talking about using a few thousand troops to seize the enriched uranium and trying to pitch it as something other than a suicide mission. Talk about polishing a turd, they don't get any smellier than that. Same goes for the Kharg operation. And on that note, another prediction. Many here will be shocked when the real US casualty numbers begin to leak. You were able to sell your Ukraine BS way past its expiration date since all most people hear in the media is Uke propaganda filtered through Western intelligence sources. No one really cares to dig deeper when it's just another proxy-of-the-month country providing the cannon fodder. The press will be a lot less complacent when American troops are on the line. So the clock is ticking on this little shell game that Trump and Hegseth are running.
