America Strikes not Israel

One of this blog's confederate readers suggested that the 2nd MEF land in Lebanon and link up with Israeli armor.

Not a bad idea, but this is going to be a purely American operation.

One of the subplots will be that the Israelis are standing by, locked and loaded, an angry lion on a tether just itching to lash out. Their proposed attack will have a really cool biblical sounding name of course, 11th Plague, Locust...

As such the Israeli corps of six regular army and four reserve brigades will be standing by. One division to drive up the coast, one through the center and the other to advance into the Beqaa Valley. 

Hmmmmm....further subplot, the Israelis take this opportunity to topple Hamas.

Further-further subplot, Israeli Iron Dome command shooting down rockets.

Will's Good Idea for the week of 8-25-19

In America Strikes, Hezbollah or the IRGC establishes bases in northern Mexico from which it flies explosive laden drones into the United States.

Thought of that just now.

Also one or two really big rockets; good morning Phoenix.

America Strikes: Devalued

Inflation is ravaging the Iranian economy and the nation is broke. Via Breitbart:

“The council of ministers, at a meeting presided by President Hassan Rouhani this morning, approved the central bank’s proposed bill to change the national currency from the rial to the toman and delete four zeros,” the Iranian Islamic regime said in a media statement, according to the government news outlet PressTV. As the reevaluation of the currency must pass through the dictatorship’s rubber-stamp legislature, it will not be confirmed until a final vote in the Iranian parliament.

We've seen some pro-Iranian types saying this is economic terrorism. Beats the real thing though, at which the Iranians are experts.

Jaw-jaw yes. War-war no. So far.

In America Strikes, my friend Sarah Abed thinks the book should be titled American Exceptionalism, the war begins with a campaign to end Iranian interference in the Gulf. Iran responds with terrorism, we respond with an all-out attack on their nuke program, they respond with more terrorism, we invade Lebanon, they respond with even more terrorism, we drop the 82md Airborne on Tehran.

Should I write it for 2020?

America Strikes, A Good Idea

Well we've had one really good idea about America Strikes.

During the first phase of the naval war an American F-18 is downed over Bandar Abbas, the pilot ejects and is hiding out on a rooftop. The fleet sends a rescue team, the chopper gets shot down and a firefight erupts. Facing the immanent massacre or capture of a dozen Americans the fleet has no choice but to send in the Marines.

And so begins the battle of Bandar Abbas.

This triggers Hezbollah in America which executes a series of ever more spectacular terrorist attacks culminating in a dirty bomb at a UCLA game and then an attack on Indian Point.

Will's Good Idea for the week of 6-16-19

Or series of ideas.

So yesterday we did some outlining of America Strikes. We were left with a lot of people in offices talking about what to do and being told what was happening. Which is not necessarily a bad thing.

We would run the entire aerial campaign over Iran out of a bunker in Bahrain or something.

We'd probably run the Lebanon campaign the same way.

The question is how much blood and guts in the field do we want.

Might the Iranians attack Kuwait? The Kuwaiti's fighting that off would be interesting no?

So a chapter on Kuwait, a chapter on Lebanon, a chapter on the aerial campaign.

Question: is this something you people want to see?

Iran Tries to Goad Will into Writing America Strikes

Do you want another Middle East War? Who wants another Middle East War.

Breaking, two tankers torpedoed in Straits of Hormuz.

On the one hand, it's more fodder for us to write America Strikes.

On the other hand, if we get a general Middle Eastern war we won't have to write America Strikes and that problem is solved.

Becuase we gotta tell ya, we're really feeling the burn.

Just imagine...Stealth Bomber raids on Iranian nuclear sites. One of the those Ohio SSBMs launches 154 Tomahawks on Iranian airfields.

But Pershing's War...Pershing's War...
