re: #317 Sergey Romanov
Nobody would. We can’t demand or expect that. Surgery is never pretty or pleasant. It should, however, be limited to what is necessary.
Are aerial strikes, even surgical strikes, necessary? Short of blowing up half the country, I don’t see how any strikes will do more than delay a bomb by a matters of months or possibly a year. And the Iranian people are not just going to forgive and forget. Such strikes will trigger a “rally ‘round the flag” mentality in the older generation, while the younger generation will either fall in line or face being accused of supporting the fall of their own country.
