| #15 My first thought was the cheering Persians were probably in Los Angelas which has a metric ton of them since 79. |

| #13 Iran has three or four significant navel facilities. They could be disabled in about that same time. Thatβs all well and good, but, do they have any naval facilities? |

| #11 What 49 Pan said. 40 years of appeasement and denial. Birthday cakes for the Ayatollah. Midnight pallets stacked with billions in cash. Trump, bless him, is cleaning up the mess created by four decades' and six administrations' weak and foolish misrule that has seen Iran steadily grow more powerful and more deadly. |

| #10 Iran has about a dozen oil refineries. They could all be taken out within about 30 minutes. Iran has three or four significant navel facilities. They could be disabled in about that same time. |

| #9 Primary targets should be their electrical distribution infrastructure and oil refineries. Iran will fall into chaos quickly. |

| #8 This enemy deserves respect, any enemy that can kill you deserves respect. They will strike back, they understand the US media and political game. This will come home to us and we need to be ready. We ignored them for decades, allowed them to grow in capability, grow in influence, and grow financially. We even paid them billions. I believe they have the capabilities nearing equal to Russia. With that I mean they have brigades of SF, they operate in urban environments and they know how to split battle fields, IE making Israel and Saudi allies to an extent. The only real difference is they don't have the nuclear capability Russia does. But we should make no mistake, they are going to strike us, they will make it violent with no rules of warfare. We must be prepared and focus our intel and operational assets on this enemy, or it will hurt. Lastly, The hostage crisis of 79 is why I joined the Army in the first place. This is long over due, We needed to do this, America is in a better place because we did, but this aint over and we need to be ready because they will counter punch. |

| #7 #5 Thaith Elmeresing6163. I've seen some of those Tweets as well. It would seem there is unrest among some of the Iranian population. |

| #6 It seems that the Deep State in the US is taking this harder than the Persians . Too many leftist in the US took to much money from Biden's Butt Buddies ? |

| #3 We need to be aware and alert here at home, too. Iranian agents have been surveying targets and stocking supplies since shortly after the takeover over there in 1979. |

| #1 OK. The hit was righteous, but we have to be prepared for the backlash. The Iranian gov't reminds me of the cartels or MS13. Too caught up in their own delusions to see the consequences of escalation. The Persians will strike back and it will hurt since the targets are likely to be civilian. I realize that warning US interests in Iraq before hand would have tipped our hand, but those folks have a target on their backs now. I hope some contingencies for their protection have been made. |
