Besides what worthwhile contributuion could carrier-based air power have made in Iraq or Afghanistan?

I'm either missing the irony or biting far too easily. What about the small issue of an American battle group STILL operating in the NAG and the support they have provided in theatre over the last how many years? Oh and not forgetting the whole Al Faw assault being maritime aviation (inc Ark Royal based CH47s), but that isn't FJ stuff so I guess it doesn't count.
