(Photo by Fatemeh Bahrami\/Anadolu Agency\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n<p>Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>America is past the point of no return regarding Iran. Iran\u2019s. Otherwise, the U.S. will look even more pitiful than it did after Joe Biden\u2019s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021; Russia\u2019s attack on Ukraine was the result. <\/p>\n<p>President Trump must face up to the stark truth that anything less than the overthrow of the extremist government in Iran will be a disastrous strategic defeat for the U.S. China will conclude that efforts to take Taiwan will not be seriously resisted. Putin will conclude that the U.S. will not enable Ukraine to resist Russia in the long term. South Korea and Japan will conclude that they will have to become nuclear powers. So will Germany and, perhaps, even Poland. Who knows what North Korea will be tempted to do. Ditto Saudi Arabia and Egypt. All this bodes ill for a peaceful, stable and prosperous world. Instead, we\u2019ll have the kind of uncertainty that hung over Europe and led to two world wars. <\/p>\n<p>The terrorist rulers of Iran will do everything they can to stay in power, no matter how much blood is shed. Thousands of protesters have been killed; thousands more have been arrested, and most will be executed if the mullahs retain power.<\/p>\n<p>President Trump has repeatedly urged protesters to fight, saying that help is on the way. Countless civilians have risen up, facing arrest or death, in expectation that the U.S. would indeed back up their cause to overthrow an odious, tyrannical regime that has, among its numerous sins, murdered or maimed over 1,000 Americans. The protesters know they can\u2019t bring down their blood-thirsty overlords without outside help. However, on Wednesday the President said that he\u2019s been told the regime has ceased executions, implying that U.S. military action may now be off the table and there may be negotiations. There are reports that he\u2019s told Tehran he won\u2019t attack.<\/p>\n<p>The president and his team can\u2019t escape the truth that Iran\u2019s rulers, despite their corruption, are fanatical revolutionaries who will never cease their activities as long as they hold power. They conflate their survival with the survival of Islam itself. <\/p>\n<p>We made one big blunder after the U.S. and Israel blasted Iran\u2019s nuclear facilities. Israel wanted to follow up by destroying the Iran\u2019s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corp, the IRGC. This force, not Iran\u2019s traditional military, keeps the regime in power. The IRGC and its auxiliaries are the ones gleefully slaughtering the protesters.<\/p>\n<p>So what should the U.S. do to make good on President Trump\u2019s repeated promise that help is on the way? <\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Bomb the bases of the IRGC; we know where they are. <\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Bomb the headquarters of the Intelligence Ministry to raise the dissenters\u2019 morale. <\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Bomb the notorious Evin prison with precision weapons. Kill the guards and their facilities, not the political prisoners.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Bomb Kharg Island, the chief terminal for exporting Iran\u2019s oil to China. Simultaneously, we should intercept oil tankers delivering Iranian oil. Without oil money, the regime will become helpless.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Destroy Iran\u2019s drone and missile factories and what\u2019s left of its nuclear program. Such action will also help Ukraine, as Russia is reliant on Iranian drones.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Engage in cyber attacks while working with the Israelis to hit Iran\u2019s cyber warfare assets.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Reassure Iran\u2019s traditional military that, except for removing war criminals, it won\u2019t be disbanded and thus has no stake in preserving the current gang of terrorists ruling the country.<\/p>\n<p>The bloodthirsty mullahs will try to attack U.S. bases. They will try to kill President Trump and others. We must move fast. The time for half measures regarding Iran\u2019s terror regime is over. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kharg Island Oil Terminal in Iran.
