🔍 Calling Trump’s bluff: US bombs can’t break Iran’s power grid and bridges Donald Trump claimed he nearly ordered strikes to destroy Iran's critical infrastructure. The attack was called off, but was it ever realistic? 💵 The plan would be extremely problematic. US ammunition stockpiles are depleted after previous operations. Renewed strikes would require at least 600 Tomahawk missiles — one for each of Iran's power plants. That does not include the heavy bombs needed for bridges, of which there are too many to count. Would Iran really be sent back to the Stone Age? Probably not. The US could cause serious damage and temporary outages, but Iran's leadership is prepared. Instead of restoring damaged plants, Iran would likely switch to small generators. The Islamic Republic also has plenty of gasoline. 📹 Destroying major power plants is hypothetically achievable though difficult. Destroying every house with a generator would be impractical, militarily and morally. New strikes would not be the knockout punch Trump was hoping for. Iran's political system has proven resilient twice. A new escalation would yield only temporary outages and public anger at the US. 👍 Boost us | Chat | @geopolitics_prime
