I think this is an iffy proposition at best.<br /><br />I would like to see this moved to some type of UN Tribunal for resolution. There's two basic reasons it can't happen right now. 1.)Iran is getting to much mileage from this conflict. The government needs a foreign devil. 2.)Such a Tribunal would most likely simply rubber stamp whatever Iran wants.<br /><br />Should Iran suggest this approach there'd be tremendous pressure placed on America to go along. They aren't interested, to much benefit to them from confkuct with America.<br /><br />While I think it may be possible for US warships to counter the Iranian speedboats it'd be EXTREMELY difficult and our losses would likely be ENORMOUS. Aircraft carriers would likely be compketely useless against a foe like Iran. Furthermore they count as allies countries like Russia and China. Additionally the governments of the Gulf Arab states they are in conflict with aren't very stable.<br /><br />While we may be able to win against Iran and their allies, it likely would be extremely difficult and costly with massive American casualties and those massive casualties would not be limited to the battlefield. Perhaps we have no choice but to fight. These are not matters that should be taken lightly. Sober minded consideration will need to be undertaken.B.Posternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8519488391496270073.post-73257084256684022742018-09-30T21:58:26.139-04:002018-09-30T21:58:26.139-04:00He's probably taking a pay cut.
