Iran is actually a thornier issue. We do need to take out their facilities. Probably after the election. Russia so kindly told the world that new AA systems go in September and effective in 90 days. Russia has been covertly telling us the timing to take out Iran’s facility. I do not think Russia really wants Iran to be nuclear and they have been dragging their feet in helping Iran. They have been staying Iran’s friend and expecting us to destroy the facility. But we have been stupidly going the ineffectual sanctions and diplomatic route. Russia has to publicly support Iran and it grants them satisfaction to tweak our nose.

It is unlikely that a raid will take them all out and the repercussions to gas supply would be high. Think filling the car was expensive this summer, wait for the bombing raid. Europe will scream since they are more affected.
