JACK KEANE (GUEST): So what it remains here, and I think the Trump administration and likely the president is already reassessing the diplomatic strategy we're on. And do we still have a realistic option to accomplish our assigned objectives if we can't do it through diplomacy? I think we absolutely do. And what that is is returning to major combat operations, combined operation, certainly with CENTCOM and with the Israelis. They're both ready and prepared to do that.
And what would that look like? Well, it it would be actually bigger and more comprehensive than what Epic Fury has because we have more targets through intelligence to take care of, and we also are at full magazine depth to deal with those targets.
So, it would be an all-out attack on their weapon systems, drones, missiles, whatever left in a nuclear enterprise, IRGC, their units, and also their leaders. We would go after very heavily their energy and economic targets — oil and gas infrastructure as an example. Isolate the country, roads and rails leading to border countries, seaports and airports as well. And sort of militarily quarantine the country.
And then we would open the Straits of Hormuz and and make certain it stays open, and finally conduct covert operations after this operation, I think, and what I'm describing to you, there's only a piece of it. Can't get into all the details here. But it would be so comprehensive that it would likely put the regime on a path to its eventual collapse.
But one of the things we should also do after the operation is over and when straits are open is continue to press covert operations in there to undermine the regime and assist the people. I think that is — remains a realistic option to accomplish the assigned goals the president had at the very beginning. Remember? Strategic goals, no nuclear weapon, take Iran off the board as a predator in the region that it has been for 47 years. I don't think we're going to get there diplomatically. It's not because I favor the military operation. I'm just looking at the facts. It's it's almost four months. The straits aren't open, and we're not any closer to a nuclear deal.
Let's get this over with and we're going to have a spike in prices for sure. It'll be temporary; it will eventually go down. And I think that would be somewhat beneficial for those who are concerned about the political concerns, and they're realistic, I understand that, the midterm elections and some of the economic strain. But that would be temporary.
