and, maybe you can sort of get a grasp of why i stand where i do on specific issues, like iran.

i don't want to bomb iran. or not yet, anyways. i don't currently see them as a threat.

but, they're a cause for some concern, sure - and the way they treat their people is atrocious. if we can get the worst of the fuckers out of there with minimal damage...i'm not going to push back against it...

i'd just want it to be all or nothing. if you take out a general here and there, they just replace them, and you probably make the repression worse. if you bomb the academy, and a dozen other places all at once, maybe you're getting somewhere.

whatever anybody else says, america retains air superiority - what i'm saying is feasible, even if it's an endpoint. which is all i'm actually saying.

i can't see a way i'd support an occupation of iran, at this time.
