But what makes some think that Iran will be that easily defeated?

Right taibunsuu, but they have already ruled out ground forces as they would have to commit on a large scale and they do not want another quagmire. When I said ground forces I should have been more specific. Ground campaign is what I should have said.
The country is too big for current operations to maintain strongholds on cities. Rangers, Delta, and SEALS for key installations? You bet. CIA green beret para's - absolutley. 1st, 3rd infantry, 101st - not gonna happen.

AIR WAR - If just looking to do a decapitation strike on the leaders, and nullify their ability to make war, then such strikes would be fairly simple, and we'd easily be victorious.
