Is Iran not democracy government?Unlike Afghan,Syria&Iraq... Iran is a homogeneous country without much sunni population or ethnic differences.
I guess democracy is coming to Iran soon.....
Don't know why Israel&US hates shia Iran!!
Anyway, still it's a muslim country,all muslim countries must die.
Off course...Without Iran the Suni World of Islam will go berserk. Iran at least provides a balance in the form of Shia crescent. Let us watch and see. Iran being at the soft belly of Russia, their reactions would be worth watching. Time to make some money for them.

Iranian air defence won't even survive the first couple of days... But ground invasion of iran, a country so much bigger and with a difficult terrain will result in thousands of American soldiers killed. Trump will only able to justify this, if Iran attacks Us troops first and kills a significant number of them.Iran has a substantially larger population than Iraq. However their military is as obsolete as their western neighbor was before US invasion. Iran has been under western sanctions far longer than Iraq was and most of their equipment is antiquated. Iranian Air defense will not survive two full weeks of US aerial assault.
With Modi back... No muzzies will dare to do a khilafat:bounce:I may have missed something, but why will there be Khilafat movement if invasion of Iran takes place?
Iran tried to extend its strategic reach to ensure its trade routes to stabilize its economy. Iran has been constantly attacked since the 1980s and knew this was needed or they would have been smothered by now. Their soon to be road route to the eastern med is a big payoffIran tried to be like the corleone family, tried to take full control of the neighborhood by knocking out rivals one after another. First Iraqis, then the Syrians and Lebanese. The other two gangs, Israelis and the Saudis, although engaged in their own turf wars, saw a common threat and decided to call the godfather of the entire syndicate to settle this matter....
As far as India playing mediator, remember what senior Corleone tells Michael, your friend who makes the offer to mediate peace is your enemy. Good if India stays out of this.
P:S - apologize for the Godfather analogy, but couldn't think of anything closer to the ME situation.
Well undoubtedly Iran will take steps to secure their foothold in a region suffering from mind numbing sectarian violence. However I don't believe Iran's putcsh into the middle east has any economic - trade related consideration. The predominant factor in their strategic calculus has been sectarian.Iran tried to extend its strategic reach to ensure its trade routes to stabilize its economy.

Also they took the fight to the Arabs to try to stop attacks on their interests. Can Saudis and gulfers plan attacks on shias if they have to fight on their borders? Isn't that what India is doing to porkis, why should Iran do any different for their people?
Don't you think that it is Saudi Arabia pressuring people, not USA? Saudi Arabia ia the backbone of USA dollar being world currency and hence USA is just implementing Saudi Arabian will. MBS visited China and India just before waivers ended and made a public announcement that Saudi is willing to supply more oil. This was indirectly implying the cutting of Iranian oil. USA is not an oil supplier (It is a net oil importer at about 2.5 MBPD) and hence can't substitute Iran. The only way Iran sanctions can work is if KSA and its GCC allies stand together and substitute Iran.India knows this template too well, so we never suspended our ties with Iran, not even when Democrats threatened us, and nor when the Republicans are threatening us. The US is coming to terms with a new world order where they need regional powers to maintain the balance. They'll spend this decade cutting deals with perceived US-rival countries like India, Iran, Russia, N.Korea and drawing red lines, setting boundaries for all other powers to respect (until 2040 when China will be strong enough to start testing those boundaries). It's not all about weapons and military power. The US conglomerates benefit from a global consumer base. If the US does anything that hurts the global economy, it will accelerate their downfall vis-a-vis China. They are trying to restore balance by rationalizing their inclination from Saudi to Iran, from S.Korea to N.Korea and (in some areas) from Pakistan to India.
Those are F-15s for sure.View attachment 35343

War with Iran is not a joke War will destroy the entire OIL infrastructure of the Gulf Countries. Dubai Sharjah Abu Dhabi Jeddah Riyadh Doha Manama Tel Aviv Haifa will be vacated, US bases will be attacked and US naval fleet sunk No Oil Tankers will move
How well can Iran hold off if shit hits the fan....
This appears to be a genuine build up of War fighting capability for a possible invasion and not just Saber rattling. It was reported that the Americans could deploy up to 120,000 ground forces. This is a large force and full deployment would probably be completed by around September. This means the air strikes could start as early as November - December and a ground Invasion soon after.the #UnitedStates Air Force (#USAF) has deployed 16X F-35 fighter jets in #AlAzraq Air Force Base E of Amman
Not cheering for war.. but I am curious to find out how will tomahawks perform against S-300 (and vice-versa)
