Something woke, DEI, blah blah blah.

The question I have is simple… what’s the actual plan Hogshit?? What is ‘victory’ in this case? You kinda need to define that. So was the objective regime change? If Khananei is dead why is this still a war then? Are you expecting a formal surrender?

From what I recall it didn’t take long to depose Iraq’s government either. Given the DOD has a budget of nearly a trillion dollars, I’d expect it to be a walk in the park to take out weak paper tiger militaries.
