what is the point with Iran

 The USA now has a lot of offensive power to attack Iran however why would they attack Iran?

We were told the US obliterates Iran's nuclear capabilities so was this true or not?

Another reason is to assist the protesters against the Mullahs who hold actual power yet we are not told how this would be done.

Yet another reason is to destroy Iran's missile capabilities particularly the long term ones.

Then there is how much has Iran built up their defences since Israel and the US attacked them. Clearly the russian weapons turned out to be hopeless last time but we are told the Chinese have leapt into the vacuum with some very good anti-aircraft defenses.

It could well be Trump has let his venezuelan operation go to his head.

We shall see.

It matters not because it will be illegal and the US will only have Israel as an ally.

This is not good for the USA, US or the World!!

I just saw Richard Hass make a very good point. The USA has plenty of bases in the Middle East and they are highly vulnerable to high speed missiles. I can imagine Iran would be thinking the USA would not want to hang around if a lot of US soldiers were killed and for nought. Trump would be pilloried from pillar to post!
