Time to 'directly target' IRGC as Iran only understands FORCE: Colonel Richard Kemp on WW3 threat

- THE time for restraint is over and the West "must strike" Iran's murderous terrorist army NOW, an ex British colonel has warned.
Richard Kemp told The Sun that nuclear-capable Iran "only understands force" - and military action will be the quickest way to end the Middle East crisis that is threatening to explode into a full-blown war.
The former army officer said: "It's deeply worrying what Iran is doing across the region, and even beyond... fermenting and supporting conflict."
However, he said policymakers must strike at the heart of all of it - the Iranian regime's ruthless terror-waging wing, The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
For decades, the IRGC has been accused of carrying out global terrorist attacks, hostage-taking on foreign soil and waging secret deadly wars against the West.
"It's time to directly target the IRGC. The Iranian entity that is responsible for for organising, funding, supplying, arming, and directing all of ... its proxies around the region."
If the West doesn't deal Iran a "significant blow", Kemp said, "I think we're gonna see very little impact from our other military actions.
"The way to address it is not what President Biden has been doing so far along with his allies in Europe, which is to appease Iran and hope that they will play nicely if we are nice to them.
"That simply will not work. The only language they understand is force."
Kemp proposes attacking IRGC's bases inside Iran, but cautions that it "might be a bridge too far from the point of view of escalation which, of course, the US is determined to avoid.
"But there are plenty of IRGC targets around the region which could be taken out by US/UK air power."
In terms of the Houthi rebels attempts to wage war on Israel by mounting attacks on commercial ships in the Red Sea, Kemp was pleased to see US and UK coalition forces pursuing "more offensive" footing.
Iran's terror proxy, which controls most of Yemen, "needed to be dealt with," he said.
The US-led strikes on Houthi rebel targets that began with a nighttime blitz on over 60 targets last week was "long overdue", Kemp said.
Since November, the militant group has launched missile, drone and hijacking attacks on cargo ships and later boldly fired on US and UK warships - turning one of the world's busiest trade routes into a warzone.
But, Kemp said it must go further as the Houthi attacks have continued.
"It has clearly not worked, and it requires a much more significant offensive campaign against the Houthis," said Kemp.

Been saying this since end of the hostage crisis in Iran back in 1980. The threat to us is too big now. Time to clean this matter up once & for all. Long overdue.
All this talk, recognition of Iran s malevolence, but NO ACTION.
Meanwhile, they are getting closer to having nuclear capabilities! Mind blowing.
I don't see you putting yourself forward to fight the Iranians Richard! Richard the warmonger. 🙄
Shalom
✊🏿🇮🇱✊🏿
They are waiting for you, good luck !!!
The world will be a less hairy place
True. There's also a 'less hairy' joke in there.
No more wars=the likes of Mr. Kemp on the dole.
And here we go…..
Same Obama approach
Laugh it off& call Houthis the JV!!
Beasts only understand the rod.
I sure am missing those 4 years under Trump with no new wars
Covid also went great under Trump. Almost no death....
Trumps going to jail.
Iran's authorities need to learn about love.
US has to learn to stop pushing war all over the world, but i read it is now creating its own internal war, good for them.
When is the world going to go after Iran?
More warmongering.
Why did Jimmy Carter depose the shah and install the Ayatollah gangsters, in the first place ?
That's not true. The Soviets funded and backed Ayatollah Khomeini.
SAME REASON THEY OVERRHEEW THE DEMOCRATIC GOVERNMENT IN THE 50S
TO DESTABILIZE THE REGION AND PREVENT IRAN FROM BECOMING MODERN AND DEVELOPED
We hope Biden and Sunak will be the mediator and advise Iran and Pakistan to calm down, negotiate to avoid a war that will harm both countries
bring on the crazies sun
🇵🇰🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
keep dreaming !!!
A Brit concerned about Iran bombing the country of Pakistan while at the same time the UK bombs the country of Yemen. Pot kettle black. British hypocrisy never fails. 😂
Yemen has earned the right “TO GET SOME”
@@rickymartin875 hirlarious. Israel government in 3 months have killed 30,000 men, women and children with NATO weapons. Crickets from the west. Yemen decides to act in defiance to the genocide by militarily blocking commercial shipping in the red sea, resulting in zero deaths by the way and UK bombs Yemen also killing civilians and the UK brands them as terrorists. The hypocrisy is off the charts. Welcome to the upside down.
Cry me a river. The Yemen POOTHIES💩targeted British navy ships and they got SMOKED.
this guy is just a mouth piece for israel.
Ww3 lets goooo baby
