You'll have to invade further inland.

And really the logic of it is eventually you'll have to invade the country all the way to Tehran to depose the government by ground because that's the only way of even theoretically keeping people, making your previous gains sustainable.

And that, if you look at the size of Iran, it's a country of 92 million people.

It's the size of Western Europe.

You really need a draft to be able to even think about doing that.

And even a draft itself would probably not be generating enough brigades to hold the entire country and pacify it and so forth.

And I don't think anyone in America really wants that.

If you mentioned earlier, the war is the most unpopular war in history.

since polling has been done before a draft, before a crown campaign and so forth, really at the early stages.

So it seems politically impossible, but the U.S.

and Trump himself has kind of boxed himself into this situation whereby he can either walk away, which I think he still can do, or he can be trapped in the situation of greater and greater escalation, which will mean much more casualties without any guarantee of a victory at the end.

Right.

Well, you know, there are two things here.

First of all, in the early phases of the war, Iran hit really hard the bases which are closer to Iran.

And a lot of those bases have been disabled now.

So they can't really be used.

They're not deemed safe enough to be used for air campaigns.

A lot of the infrastructure there has been destroyed and so forth.

And what they also did was they hit a lot of the radars and air missile defenses, which were between itself and Jordan.

So Jordan is basically the next domino in line.
