Once Kargh Island is flattened, effectively there is no more Iranian Navy. The country has fewer than 100 airports, including mmilitary bases, all of which could be neutralized in a series of air strikes from Whiteman AFB.
An operation to completely eliminate the power of Iran to wage nuclear or conventional war would last less than three weeks and would not necessitate the landing of a single troop.

you know, i have heard this before.. IRAQ right
take a look at the scud missile problem during the iraq war.. they never really solved it, just buried the reports as the missiles were useless anyway. That isn't the case anymore.
also, i hear the nuclear armed iranian subs are working just fine
