Chickens! Coma back and FIGHT!
A successful Iranian attack on a US carrier would guarantee full US commitment including ground forces.
It would be Vietnam all over again.

Be sure and aim for the laundry room.
That seems to have the greatest effect.

A sea trial of our secret submersible aircraft carrier technology. I can say no more.
I don't think a successful attack on a US carrier would lead to a ground invasion. At least not right way. It will take some time for the radiation from nuking Tehran to subside. And at that point, why bother!

Fair point. B-61s over Tehran, what a beautiful sight that would be. From a B-52 just like in the old days, showing off we aren't even afraid of their puny air defense. Maybe we could get a volunteer to ride the bomb down and take video.

Herb had heard, with a big enough lever
He could move the whole world. "Well, I never!
With a big enough spliff,
I believe I can shift
The whole Burg to the left
Via secondhand fight, and by acting too right and too clever!"
🚨 ELIMINATED: IRAN’S UNDERGROUND ARCHITECT FOR HEZBOLLAH
The IDF confirms the elimination of Mahdi Vafaei, Head of the Engineering Branch of the Quds Force’s Lebanon Corps, in a strike in Mahallat, Iran.
For over 20 years, Vafaei led efforts to build underground terror infrastructure across Lebanon and Syria, including weapons storage sites and operational networks for Hezbollah and the Assad regime.
His removal is expected to significantly degrade Hezbollah’s underground capabilities and disrupt Iran’s broader regional terror infrastructure.
🛑🚨The defeated and routed Iranian regime is in a state of terror: How did Israel reach the main gates of the caves in the 15 Khordad Camp where the ballistic missiles are, in Isfahan?
Up to now, the routed and humiliated regime cannot even reach the locations of the explosions and fires.

The following day, a fire broke out at an oil refinery in Haifa, Israel \, following an Iranian missile attack. On March 31, the IRGC launched drone strikes against AT&T and Siemens facilities in Israel. On March 31, an oil tanker caught fire after being hit by a shell 54 km northwest of Dubai.
