When Oh When Can We Destroy Iran?

I am starting to get a little annoyed with Iran. They openly support terrorism (Oh, and don't give me that whole, "Iran expressed sorrow for those lost in the twin towers" Bullshit. If Hitler were a little smarter, he would have said the same thing about Pearl Harbor.), supply the insurgency and call for Israel and America to be destroyed on a regular basis. One could simply call it "saber rattling", but there is a huge difference between saying a bunch of angry words to avert attention from your failure as a leader, and actually being dangerous.

Iran is like the crazy man who lives on the street, screaming about the apocalypse, harmless. But give him a gun, or a weapon capable of harming others, and you have a threat you just can't ignore.
And that is what Iran is. A symbolic crazy man who wants to hurt people, but does not yet have the capabilities to do so. The question is, how long will we allow them to continue on this path before they either attain such a weapon, or we simply get sick of it. Well, unfortunately, the idea that we will rise to this task before lives are lost is minimal. Such attacks against them would cause the ire of the leftists to come pouring out in droves. But the thing is, once the unthinkable does happen, the left will undoubtedly demand to know why nothing was done sooner.

That's crazy right? Wrong! They did it before. After 9/11, we knew where to attack. The answer was Afghanistan. We waited for months before strikes were made. The left was in a rage over the idea of attacking Afghanistan. Michael Moore being one of the most vocal opponents, of such an attack. He would then later make a movie called, "Fahrenheit 9/11" which he argued that Bush let Osama Bin Laden escape by not attacking Afghanistan SOONER!

Do we need to fight a conventional war against them? Probably not. It could be argued that the Iranians are stupid for electing that nutjob of a president, but there is eventually a limit to how stupid someone is willing to be. Take their military out of the picture, destroy their ability to organize the resources necessary to operate their illegal nuclear facilities.

Give them the option to surrender the location of the facilities, then if they do not cooperate, send in black ops to destroy the facilities. And if that fails, destroy a few square blocks surrounding where the management lives who operates those facilities and eventually, others will surrender what they know.

This sure sounds severe. What I am suggesting may upset some and disgust others. Well, in case you haven't noticed, WE ARE AT WAR CHILDREN!!! The time for civility with an uncivilized enemy is long past due. We must consider them a potential threat and remove that threat from this earth. We will remove it by intimidation or force. There is no other way.
