Lots of war material on its way.

Only real question is will we stop at the straits or go for the whole enchilada.

Minimum occupation force will need to be at least half a million men for the whole country, but less than 100k can hold the straits.

Lobbyists for defense contractors are going whole hog on buying politicians right now.

I could see Obama launching some bombing timed for the election. Only if he needs it though. National Security will have little to do with any decision by him with regards to Iran.

Hyper is grossly underestimating the numbers needed for that region. As someone who has participated in US military scenarios run in this region for years .... We will lose a lot of ships and will need more than 750k to even get on the shores of Iran.

The loss of life would be intolerable to the US people

Dont worry I will give my opinion anyways.
