Maybe try again from a different angle? If that doesn't work, maybe a children's hospital?

Witness the peak of meritocracy...

simpsons meme - we've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas, changed to we've tried issuing ultimatums and tacos - with hegseth and trump's faces superimposed.

Religious targets? You get bonus points if you start a holy war.

Yes, they have repeatedly tried turning the war off and on again.

I suspect the military is looking for something that will distract Trump from launching nukes.

"Creative and Unconventional"
Stop the war, the unnecessary killing of citizens and keeping the fuel prices up.
Stop talking to Netanhayu and helping him out.

Ohhh.. to "punish" Iran..
For what exactly?

Is that relevant to the punishment or is it just arbitrary?

They apparently like war, and that's why they allegedly want a nuclear weapon. So don't engage with them. That will really piss them off.

I wish the troops would concentrate more on disobeying unlawful orders.

When management has to ask employees for ideas on what to do, it shows how much shit they have on the table

Force Trump as their president.

He would be in charge for as long as it takes for the first person to get in arms or bullet length of him. A light punishment with huge upside for both parties.

They say that a good compromise is when both parties are dissatisfied. I feel like this is one of those "exception to the rule" situations.

They are already doing better than that by bombing them.

Literally would end the war. US military plane lands in Tehran to drop off the (ex)POTUS as an apology.

"Our pseudo-democratic system gave us this shitstain for a leader. We're sorry. Here he is, do with him as you please."

Though at that point I suspect the US Military will be in the white house and I don't see that as any better.

That's because a good deal is when both parties are happy. I don't see compromise

There is no "giving".
It's their money which the US nazi thugs stole.

Paint the aircraft carriers as giant LBGTQ flags ?

Use Drones to drop pro LBQT flyers into Iran ?

Paint the Charle Hebdo cartoon on the Carrier landing decks ?

Have the landing deck full of sailors and then bend over and moon Iran with everyone having a Charlie Hebdo tattoo on their ass as they sail the SoH?

For putting themselves in the path of the falling bombs, obviously.

Just fly over and shove him out with a parachute, wrapped up in a comical amount of rope.
