But I don't think the Israelis certainly haven't, and I don't think the CIA has adequately prepared an opposition with real force to actually push back on the regime at the ground level.
This top-down approach, I don't know of anywhere in history, however wonderful and spectacular the precision weapons are, air power alone does not change a regime.
And it certainly doesn't create spontaneous order.
Keep going, Eric.
Yeah, I'm agreeing with you.
But if no one has gone through the steps of, hey, how are we going to set up...
And defense committees inside of Iran so that when you have a city, how do you defend it?
How do you protect it?
How do you defend your people?
How do you take away the Quds Force IRGC capability town by town?
I don't know of anybody that's done that.
And maybe I'm just not informed, but my God, when you have millions of people in the streets over the last decade plus, would have been a good time to roll out that capability.
Or having seen the absence or the need for those, you'd think the intelligence community would have been building that capacity on the ground or next door in Afghanistan or in Kurdistan, northern Iraq.
to be ready for this day, but nobody's done that.
And so the top-down approach with air power alone is not going to get us there.

The actual geography of the country just speaks to defense.
And it is.
And tens of thousands of wounded.
Look, a sliding door moment in that conflict.
