RUSH EXCERPT:
McKENZIE: "What’s it going to take militarily to do that. Well, let me let me say: first of all, we do have the ability to open the straight. Should we choose to do it in what you’re saying now the what I would call the precursor of the initial steps in such a campaign, you want to reduce Iran’s ability to fire short range rockets and missiles into the strike against warships. You want to take out there fast attack craft. Think on them is cigarette boats, large, powerful outboard engine boats that can race out and get him on ships and cause direct damage. That way, what we’re doing is we’re going after all those vessels and that’s where eight tins attack, aircraft attack, helicopters and other slow moving low altitude platforms. Us are very effective, so we’re in the process of removing those right now, at the same time, we’re working to get rid of Iran’s mind, stockpile. The minds are very dangerous. They had thousands when the war began. I have no doubt we significantly a traded them now course. It doesn’t take many miles to cause a significant blockage, the world shipping. So all of that is under way right now and you want to reduce those to a low level before you put your warships up there to actually sort of test the waters and that strike. I have no idea what the ad cooper’s decision making process is going to be for that, but I think we’re well on the way to achieving those goals. Kinda straight be real, but with an air naval campaigning any ground troops, I think you can be open with an air and naval campaign and the use a ground troops would probably be along the line of raids and remember a raid as an attack with a planned withdrawal. What you don’t plan to say the one exception might be card island. I know the presenters talked about it. I think it has a unique place in Iranian culture, because one thing if you’D see that you’re holding Iranian soil. Secondly, it is the critical know to which all their oil supplies pass by seizing it, you have the opportunity to cut that off, inflicting grievous damage on the Iranian economy and yet with the opportunity, perhaps to return it as part of a negotiation process. Further, you don’t permanently damage the global economy by this drawing the infrastructure. So I think cargill is a very lucrative target, I’m sure we’re looking at it hard right now. I have no idea of going to choose to go up there"
