What’s your solution? lol
Well that would be assuming the reason they went there was legit, which I don't believe it was. If the initial reports were correct and they wiped out there nuclear program then I can't see how such a colossal failure of intelligence could occur where only a year later they are two weeks away when they indicated they were decades away.
Say they are that close to nuclear bombs, I would think a co-ordinated planned attack with our allies with contingencies for the straight amongst other things would have been apt. They rushed in with no plan and haven't achieved the nebulous objectives they haven't clearly elucidated. Overwhelming might with proper co-ordination and retrival of the enriched uranium (they don't appear to know where it is) with boots on the ground. I don't see how this has helped in any fashion. They don't have the uranium, they don't have a regime change and they appear to have been unprepared for the straights closure (or miscalculated).
The proper solution ime would likely be economic relief, lifting of sanctions, fostering good will and giving them something in return for reducing nuclear proliferation- that is what is going to happen now anyway. Obama's plan did at the time remove about 95% of the uranium, how that turned out is another question.I dont see how you can ask them to not have nukes when there mortal enemy does and sanction and economically devastate them at every turn.
So I think in all there were two options and they decided on rushing in (citing 2 weeks away which I think is silly) with no contingency and asking for help retroactively which is absurd. It was impulsive and directly related to your leaders capricious nature. He fired all the people that said it was a bad idea like a lunatic and went ahead anyway because HE wants to get the glory for "stopping" iran, he wants cuba, he wants more land....
Essentially, act like a rational, calculated adult instead of a tough guy teenage boy showing how macho he is.
If you are talking about the straight, suffer the defeat and start with concessions to get this saga over with and stop crippling the world economy. This shit is going to get worse and will last for well over a year. Iran can persist based on predictions for 6 months to a year with no oil going out, that would devastate the world economy. Even then, I am sure as that deadline approaches they will ramp up action not concede as they appear to be extremely prideful and being run by auotcrats do not seem to care about the pain it causes the people.
