Iran: What would YOU do?
We've been hearing quite a bit of noise about what to do about Iran and their nuclear ambitions. I won't bother to outline some of the proposals...we've all heard them. I will stipulate from the outset that, regardless of statements from the Iranian government, they intend to develop nuclear weapons. If it were strictly an electric power program...why the secrecy & hardening of facilities?
So...what would YOU do? In my case...I would cripple Iran's electric power system to the point of near-obliteration. Uranium enrichment is a very power-hungry process, and, without electricity...the enrichment process stops. No juice=no nukes. Take out the power plants first, wipe out the HV transmission lines, flatten substations & switchyards. This tactic would obviously have quite an effect on the populace, but it beats most alternatives.
