#1 Blast them, making sure to position the liberal elements for takeover and conservative elements for immolation.

#2 "grand bargain"? Bullshit. Iran needs to pay full price for the events of '79 right through to today.

One of my beliefs on how Bush operates is that he keeps score and he makes it personal. His people are getting chewed up by Iranian schemes and the bill is coming due.

#3 Hit them until they scream and cry, then hit them again and again until they stop.

#5 I have seen some of the planning . . .

Such a clever man he is, to be sure. Has he seen the plans for our invasion of Canada, too? And the conquest of Wales? Our military is ready for whatever might need to be done! Mr. Pruitt, the country was awfully lucky that you were there to offset such idiocy, back when you and he were employed in a similar capacity.

#6 Iranians are well aware that the Ayatollah class is looting the national treasury. Rid Iran of that class's power base and cultural centers - like Qom - and the people will turn on the wannabe Arabs.

Iran has both a professional military and Basiji fanatics. The former could and would crush the latter, given an opportunity. Iraq wasn't occupied after GW1, so I wouldn't make much of the lack of occupation forces in the theater.

As for the recent arrests of Iranian agents in Mosul - which is populated mostly by Sunni Arabs and Kurds - is one of many proofs that Ayatollah money is being used to kill US troops. We have the pretext; let's have the war. But, launch it secretly, Reagan style. Force a fait accompli on both the enemy and the Dems.
