This is rarely ever the problem for the military power doing the invading. The problem stems from the vacuum of legitimate governance that occurs when the invader destroys the institutions keeping order. Rogue elements emerge, the like...those we are trying to prevent the government of Iran from giving nuclear weapons in the first place.

I believe the US and its allies have a pretty good overview of where the nuclear installations are. Bombing those alone (not any other military or governmental facilities) would not create any power vacuum, and the institutions that are keeping order would be largely unharmed (unless they build their Congress and presidential residence at the site of nucelar development).

And the Iranian Republican Guard Air Force and Navl Units would just idly sit by and watch the bombs fall? OR Perhaps strike out at any US Warships in the Persian Gulf and/or US Ground troops in Iraq. Which is more likely? What do you think The US would do if another country executed a surgical strike on our land based missile bunkers or similar strategic asset?

There is no such thing as a tidy war with a country who has a large, well equipped, and decently trained military such as Iran.

DITTO. Ship teh "steely-eyed-death-in-the-dark-shiva-comes-on-little-cat-feet" status please!

I'm probably joining the SEALs anyways, but goddamn would this be a nice excuse.

I understand how moto you are now, but saying you're joining the SEALs on an internet board, and actually signing the SEAL Challenge contract then surviving basic training, then BUD/s and all the rest are two completely different things. More power to you if you're serious about it, but make sure you are.

I only say this because this quote:
