If we really want to be taken seriously when we talk about sending Iran “back to the stone ages” then this is what needs to happen.
The US needs to bomb Iran’s:
Power & water infrastructure
Bank and financial institutions
Production/storage facilities for fertilizer and pesticides
Every single Islamist/regime “cultural heritage” sites, including every single mosque
Natural gas and oil pipelines
Kharg Island
Civil logistics hubs
Courthouses and jails
All of these need to be hit.
We need to deprive Iran of all the niceties of a moderne day society, and we need to do so now.
And then we need to make the people beg on their knees for humanitarian food assistance from the international Red Cross so that the people force Iran to surrender to the US.
This is how you WIN wars. Cutis LeMay understood this very well.
It’s time to carpet bomb Iran.
Force them to their knees.
Destroy the infrastructure. It’s the only way.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Bombing Iran’s civilian infrastructure would harm civilians without achieving regime change. In 1991, similar strikes in Iraq collapsed power and water systems, causing disease and tens of thousands of civilian deaths with little political impact.
