This acutally remind me of vietnam.

You can't take over a country by avoiding losses. The people are revolting, but our goal is "to pretect the people".

The way I see it, we have 3 choices, either we take over the place by force against the people, blow the whole place up, or just admit defeat and leave.

You can't conquer a country by being the good guy, it's impossible.

Attacking Iran would be really stupid. Would we do the same thing as Iraq? Defeat their army and leave? If we do, those country will be rebuilt and we'll just gain ennemies. We could stay and control the place, but I don't think the Middle East will stand iddle for long watching the US taking over their contry one after the others.
