So what objective is the US exactly fighting for if this does not stop now? What the US would call winning will be the Iraq/Syria senario which is Netenyahu's wet dream.
Iran becomes a failed reigon controlled by 500,000 members of different malitias without any government killing each other and destroying ships and production plants in nearby countries with drones and attacks for 5-10 years to come. This means 10 yrs of 200,000+ US troops deployment in there to escort shippings and fight back ..etc..etc. costing $trillions and thousands of lives. Also means collapse of world economy for at least 5 years because Iran will not go down before taking the economies of gulf US-puppets down with it. Shortly after Israel will be free to occupy Lebanon, Syria, Iraq and parts of Eygpt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia because those countries will not have any economy left or strong government to defend themselves.
In what world would there be any other senario? They bomb Iran to smithereens and that Palahvi clown who lived his entire life in california out of Iran's stolen wealth becomes king of Iran, but then all previous military members with drones and guns and artiliary rgps whose currency became 0 already and lost everything and had all their families killed just stop fighting and hang up their weapons in their living rooms?!?
