A retired general claims leadership at the Pentagon “must be smoking something” because of its Iran hubris.

“And I would say that we’re gonna be in the same situation we were in Iraq. We’re gonna be able to knock out their defensive capabilities, their offensive capabilities, establish air superiority, but they’re gonna go underground. These are tough, resilient people; they’re gonna be able to outlast us.”
He said any suggestion to the contrary is foolish. “And if we think we’re gonna be able to bomb them into submission from the air, somebody’s smoking something,” he declared.
