How is SOF going to deal with a basij force of 1,000,000 fighting aged males? Not to mention the half million active duty military. Sabotaging AAA wont work on those guys. You just going to bomb them? They're in every mosque on every street corner in every town and village.

What about their AAA? I don't know exact figures, but I watch a good bit of Persian news, and they seem to be unveiling a new or improved AA system every other week. Imported stuff and homegrown stuff. And it's a fairly tight network too.

How about their navy? Good luck finding all those midget subs. They can literally pop up beside a carrier group without anyone ever knowing until they've been spotted visually. They can close the straight whenever it pleases them and they will.

Sorry, but your theory just sounds ridiculous. It would be a major undertaking.

whatever man. This isn't Iraq circa 1991. Iran has been studying our TTP's since the gulf war. They have a plan and our SOF won't cut it.


And you don't think that SOCOM has some new stuff in their bag of tricks? Surely you're not suggesting that SOF is obsolete. It sure wasn't obsolete in 2003.

Not a chance 0bama is going to hit Iran (with the real president, Valerie Jarret, calling the shots) or anywhere else.

Apropo of nothing, I suppose, but the link in the OP caused me to go to the Wikipedia page for USS John C. Stennis, wherein I discovered the following paragraph:

On 12 November 2001, two months earlier than scheduled, the ship left on her third deployment to the U.S. Fifth Fleet area of responsibility in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, returning to San Diego on 28 May 2002. On the way home she stopped in Fremantle, Australia where her sailors wore out the sex workers at a local brothel, forcing it to close temporarily.  From June 2002 to January 2003, JCS underwent a seven-month Planned Incremental Availability (PIA).

Sounds like some of you guys are too young to remember the initial Iraq invasion. Put down the nintendo, read a book or two, then come talk to me when you have something intelligent to say.

Did any of you smartasses even read the article? Our flagship carrier is sitting on the biggest ordnance onload in history. The geopolitical situation abroad is in full meltdown. And SOCOM is holding a massive exercise practicing to invade a foreign country.


And we have a POTUS who ain't gonna do jack shit. Traitorous closeted muslim who has a hard on for Iran getting nukes. So scratch Iran from the list.

Who exactly do you suppose is the target? Just say it.

So should we just wait until Iran gets nuclear weapons then? Like I said, you can rest assured that DARPA has some new toys for our guys to play with over there. They have a sat system that can track any sub at any depth, and that's just what they're willing to tell us about. Just imagine what kind of technology exists. I guarantee you that we're light years ahead of Iran. IMO, you're overestimating Iran's abilities, and drastically underestimating ours.

Yea my ship hit port after being in stand by supporting OEF for six months cutting gator squares after the stennis.  It was more than one just one brothel they wore out.  Most were closed when we showed up.
