Details On The Iran Attack
This paper provides some excellent data on the upcoming attack on Iran. It’s pulled together with open source intel and some pretty good thinking.
Most significantly, Plesch and Butcher dispute conventional wisdom that any US attack on Iran would be confined to its nuclear sites. Instead, they foresee a “full-spectrum approach,” designed to either instigate an overthrow of the government or reduce Iran to the status of “a weak or failed state.”
Also smart: They’re ignoring what capabilities Iran actually has in terms of WMDs, and is instead operating with what they could possess. Something that the Israeli’s have to do.
Sidenote: Larry Johnson is quoted:
“The report seems to accept without question that US air force and navy bombers could effectively destroy Iran and they seem to ignore the fact that US use of air power in Iraq has failed to destroy all major military, political, economic and transport capabilities,” said Johnson late Monday after the embargo on the study had been lifted.
Anyway, its a fun 80 page read that I’m still wading through. Lots of specifics.
