The United States Government is wasting time, money and lives in defensive tactics confronted with enemy nations well known to all who are openly dedicated to total destruction of America. Iran is the fountainhead of the evil ideas of those who are acting to destroy us. Launching all-out, massive military force that totally destroys the military capability of Iran, as well as the industrial and civil infrastructure of that nation is the only effective and moral response in this war.
Announcing that any other nation that even tthreatens to harm America will receive the same immediate punishment will make America safe for centuries to come. Nothing less will save us. We have the weapons to do it in less than an hour but so far lack the moral confidence to strike back with that ultimate fury.
