Prefferably a ground attack following a massive air attack. Completely cripple their army and air forces then pull our troops back into Iraq and Afghanistan. It would be over in a week. No occupation. No rebuilding. Just kick their ass and leave. Then kick it again if they retaliate. In fact just premptively strike anything that looks like an assembly point afterward.

What about saudi arabia-more weapons are bought with their money by insurgents than weapons from Iran.

You also need to look at the history between the US and Iran, Iran's Hezbollah connection, Iran's current nuclear dilemma, and Iran's public threats directed at both the US and Israel. I agree Iran is being singled out, but these are the reasons for doing so.

Because one disagrees with you it must mean they don't care about the troops.
If one wants to kill every living form of life in Iran then that means they support the troops.
I don't understand your logic.
Logic by assumption-original.

Supporting the troops:
Send them on a poorly planned undefined mission witout adequate numbers of troops,inadequate protective gear,and upon returning provide minimum medical care while at the same time cut their veteran benefits.
Your right I must not support the troops.

And if things weren't bad enough (so you say), the Democrats want to cut their funding. THAT is support I guess.

If you cared about troops you wouldnt be having such a hard on to send them to there deaths.

This is alot of wanna be warrior BS. Tangible evidence of Irans nuclear weapons is non existant. If there was such a group of facilites on a list in America intel..heres the simple logic. Here is nuke building facility A. Here is USAF/USN strike package A. Watch building go boom. Repeat as needed.

Anything other then a clear list of targets and a campaign limited to the destruction of said targets is a bunch of political horseshit and is as far from reality as the minds that rattle sabers safely from a internet forum.

So techno warrior wannabes hook me up with a list of Iranian Fighters capable of carrying anything worth while to Isreal? Then show me how jordan and syria regardless of there true ideals or the ones you think they have, will be mmore then happy to allow Iranian strikes to fly through there airspace and collect them(who neighor Isreal) into a war? What kind of convential Iranian Air strikes have a snowballs chance in hell of eveading intercept by american assests in theater? Show me the some info barring US intercept for ISrealis aresenal? That neat little stunt they flew with a Diamond formation and 6 planes in 1982 doesnt equate to Isreali ability to sustain an effective Aerial campaign across that distance. If iran wants to tangle with these US carrier groups....well...fine just make sure they see some film footage of the last time they dared trifal with the Navy in those waters in 80's, oh sure they were great with oil tankers but it was different when somebody shot back.

Its really cowardice to fear nations whose entire military aresenals are bought and paid and not devolped. Do you really think the iranians will be worth a shit conventialy cause they learned how to get the snot beat out of them in the 80's by Iraq and the US? This is all very cheeseball. Not gonna happen.

An invasion would recquire occupation. Any boots on teh ground will send the Iranaians into fits that would make charely manso look like a 5 year old girl scout. You can bring a billion pounds of HE to iran, if your on the ground you wont get anyting but more dead US boys. These people dont quit. A conscript army in 1991 getting pounded by USAF and Tomahawks seems to give many of you rednecks a boner, but fighitng these people on there home turf is totaly different and YOU WONT WIN. So show some real support for troops and keep them out of harms way.
