Afghanistan has yet to submit to the Awesome Power™ of the United States Government. Why they don’t want to accept their wonderful liberation is incomprehensible to me."

I've been reading articles over the last week on Iran's mlitary capability, particularly air defence and anti-shipping. While they and the US know their forces are little more than a speedbump if the US hits hard, conservative estimates (real world, not sexed-up neocon fantasy) suggest a very heavy price being exacted.
...a very high price.

don - yep lots of dead people. for what reason?

I'm still rough on the details, but apparently the recent COPE INDIA exercises were a rude awakening to participating US forces expecting a cakewalk. From what I gather, Indian AF pilots used rather unorthodox tactics to catch the confident Americans with their pants down more than a few times.
If intel-based briefings to US pilots on what to expect from a nominal friendly were that off, how much credibility can they have on a non-allied Iran? Especially if the Bush Admin ignores what they don't want to hear?
thnx don
the war games post i mentioned is here
