Default Impossible......Yeah Right.

It is impossible to "burn the oil fields" to the ground using conventional airstrikes.
************************************************** *****
Impossible???? So the USA could burn the Romanian oil fields in 1944 but somehow the USA can't burn the Iranian oil fields to the ground today? So the USA could burn Dresden and Tokyo to the ground in 44/45, and yet burning Iranian oil fields is impossible?
Has something changed in the last 60 years?
Is oil no longer flammable?


Saddam tried that during the Gulf war and we repaired the fields,
************************************************** *****
Really, I don't recall that. Please post a link to support this.
I know the Iranians started attacking oil tankers in the Persian Gulf and the great Ronald "Magnus" Reagan retaliated by sinking 1/2 the Iranian navy in one day. Then, the Iranians wisely decided that attacking oil tankers was not a good idea...


And if you think an air strikes would bring down the Iranian govt, remember that the Moderates in Iran made their biggest gains before Iran joined the Axis of Evil.
************************************************** *****
The CIA topple the 1953 Iranian govt by hiring a few circus strongmen to incite a pro-Shah riot. The riot started an uncontrolled chain reaction and 4 days later the govt is overthrown. Cutting off the mullah's revenue will cripple their govt. No one knows whether the Mullahs could keep the govt from toppling. I would like to find out.


The response from the populace was to rally round the hardliners, leading to the election of the current hard line president.

You are showing your ignorance of the facts.
Iran does not have free elections. The previous "moderate" president and his allies were barred from running for president by Iran's religious councel. The Iranian's choice on election day was to choose between:
Hardliner#1 and
Hardliner#2

You need to open your eyes and leave the land of make believe.
You have chosen a dove position and you have deliberately ignored and shut your mind from any facts which contradicts your pre-chosen beliefs. That is not how free thinkers think.....
