Axios is reporting that the Vietnam War draft-dodging president and his psychotic Secretary of War are drafting options for a “final blow” against Iran - including a 72-hour nonstop bombing campaign plus a ground invasion with 10,000 Marines (82nd Airborne) and Army Rangers.
Col. Douglas MacGregor (US Army, retired) warns that any US troops trying to land on Kharg Island in the Persian Gulf or on the coast of the Strait will face catastrophic losses. “It’s a suicide mission,” says MacGregor, "Iran has formidable firepower in place."
Also, the geography favors Iran: 2,000 km coastline and steep mountains overlooking the coast and islands. Macgregor says a successful U.S. assault is highly unlikely: "How will they get troops to the landing areas? How will they be resupplied under withering artillery and drone attacks from Iran?"
As Trump flails about, thrashing around for a victory over Iran, he is threatening to take on a risky military operation he has no experience or understanding of. Ironically, if he proceeds, as MacGregor warns, he is about to turn the #IranWar into an even bigger military and political disaster.
