This warms my heartMass invasion
Afghan war was an american victory.US won Gulf War one - Destroyed Iraqi military potential, and kicked out Iraqi Army out of Kuwait.
Gulf war 2 - Victorius invasion.. Failed occupation..
Afghan war - Victorious invasion, failed occupation..
Unkil Sam very good at Conventional war.. But, lacks Stamina for costly occupation..
iirc correctly Alexander the great and Genghis Khan were last successful conquerors.because Iran is 100 times harder to conquer & invade than any west asian country. This is reflected in iranian history - it hasnt been invaded successfully very often in the past. IIRC, its happened only 5 times in history that the heartland of Iran has been conquered by a foreigner.
the geography of Iran is simply too difficult and all of those invaders paid their due price in blood- a price murrica is unwilling to pay.
There were the arabs, Seljuk Turkis and Timur who successfully conquered the Iranian heartland, as well.iirc correctly Alexander the great and Genghis Khan were last successful conquerors.
if they can't be conquered than let's try regime change.
terrain is ALWAYS an issue. Even rolling hills are a compeltely different issue than farming plains.I doubt anyone can hold a country hostage if thr population does not want it.
Terrain issues not withstanding.
It's not the 10th century where terrain was a big issue.
Iran is no Himalayas either
ek chinese baloon aaya USA ke andar to itne drama kiye gayeLatest Biden statement below. While this doesn’t mean boots on the ground, Unkil is clearly giving a free hand to Israel and saying not to worry of any consequences?
“I told him that if the United States experienced what Israel is experiencing, our response would be swift, decisive, and overwhelming,” Biden said from the State Dining Room.
Being hyper religious is one thing, but considering their history and geography, some people should have been exempt from such religiosity. At the very least they could position the non Jews or not so religious Jews for such critical functions during the Sabbath window. Overall a big flop show on their part and a dent in their invincibility regardless of how many bombs they drop on Gaza. Needs serious introspection to avoid such instances in the future.I was talking to a Israeli girl. Apparently Saturday is the rest day for Jews and it consists of total abstentation from technology. According to her, most of IDF was on leave back home and the rest couldn't contact higher ups because... They were unreachable due to them being religious and abstaining from technology. Even assembling a response team took time because no one could contact each other. The kibbutz spread across the frontiers couldn't raise alarms because they're essentially hyperreligious community so they were maintaining strict no work/tech and no one was listening on the other side.
Good tactic from Hamas' side.
Completely understandable for civilians, but how can this be allowed for security forces?I was talking to a Israeli girl.

The only thing Muricans want is to destroy Iran's nuclear facilities (and human resources) then install abecause Iran is 100 times harder to conquer & invade than any west asian country.

You can. All you need to do is choke the food supply and create mass famines frequently. That's what the briturds did here.I doubt anyone can hold a country hostage if thr population does not want it.

Exactly and it sounds very naive. It was bit surprising that the whole population is literally a soldier but had no weapons at home or elsewhere. They should review it now.Being hyper religious is one thing, but considering their history and geography, some people should have been exempt from such religiosity.

Israel is going through a serious political unrest for some time. Even Armed forces refused to be on duty!Completely understandable for civilians, but how can this be allowed for security forces?
I'm surprised hamas didn't exploit this huge weakness much earlier.

could infiltrate in such mass protests.
The religiousity is self imposed. The problem is that the leftist non religious ones are self selecting themselves outside of IDF. So the mid to top level gets saturated with right wing religious ones.Being hyper religious is one thing, but considering their history and geography, some people should have been exempt from such religiosity.

The Israelis should really stop using M113's on the front lines. It has weaker Armour than even a BMP. I guess they haven't produced enough Namer APC's yet.
