As an former officer of the 23 Devisions of Nohed ( Green Barets )and the Veteran of the Iran -Iraq war.Our hope was always young Soilders of Iran like you , and i,m honored the most to see your work my sons.We are ready most then ever to defend our positions with strenghs,im ordering thoes how belive it,s a joke just see what happens to Israel as they attemped to attac Lebanon in the year of 2006 ,what happen?57 Markava Tanks , two f16 and 3 ships killed within 33 day,s!
Love to help Syria --I don't know much of Iran but I like Syria--beautiul women there. My Armor is the Best on Earth undestructable...My fortifications Not even Bunker Busters as big as MOAB coulde punch through!!!
one heres an old iranian quote the earth is like a tree when one branch hurts others feel it when one dies others feel sorrow we are all connected and we should treat eachother like brothers and sisters its not the exact quote but thats basically it
the thing is iranians are aware of the challenge and the power they are facing and know they are going to lose lots of lives yet they will defend iran no matter what, but to american wariors and their families as we have seen even the loss of one life is so davestating it is going to crash them. and even if a fraction of their soldiers get killed in this war it would have a huge impact on their moral and on the mental helth of american parents, families and citizens.
assoonas1, 1. no half way measures as to supporting our allies. Safetey lies in others believing we really will strike with vengeance if necessary. Take-off on MAD. 2. Sometimes we are wrong in how we deal with others. But the fact that that they dislike us is an unstable barometer.
LOL. Funny that you guys bring up Makedon and Alexandros. My wife is from Makedon. I have a Star of Virgini tattooed on my shoulder. I am a Marine officer and the thought of walking in the footsteps of Megas Alexandros makes my blood hot. I rather like the idea of burning Tehran. Perhaps I shall sit in a garden near the Azadi Tower and read of the burning of Persepolis by Alexander.
'where will the planes take of from to bomb iran? ' good question and good point(if you mean Iran can lob missiles onto airbases in the area). I do not know. Potentially cannon fodder fighters could be lauched from Israel as decoy, while B2s could launch quietly from one of the bases within strike range of iranian missiles. The Israelis could say one of their fighters slipped through(but the ordinance droped by B2?), but I really dont know
I hope there will be no war...NO ONE SHOULD EVER PRAISE WAR. NO ONE. But if anyone decides to attack my country, I'm willing to fight. Thank god Finland doesn't have oil or anything like that....wait shit we have shitloads of clean water. Damn.
@sicker57 White phosporus munitions were used by Russian forces in Chechnya.during the December 1994 battle for Grozny in Chechnya, every fourth Russian artillery round fired was a white phosphorus round. Iran may have not used it yet but when there is a war with them in it they will you use their whole supply. U.S. forces have used phosphorus shells very sparingly in Fallujah, for illumination purposes.They were fired into the air to illuminate enemy positions at night not at enemy fighters.
Also dont forget that a lot of people around the world will be against the war, including many Americans, seeing the US military as the agressor, so Iran should also fight on the diplomatic battlefield of world opinion. If you can call for assistance from the world and for sanctions against the US, the governments of the world wont do anything but their population might put pressure, and it might be helpful after an attack to get aid in rebuilding
Wiki:"Hezbollah first emerged during the Lebanese Civil War as a militia of Shia followers of the Ayatollah Khomeini, trained, organized and funded by a contingent of Iranian Revolutionary Guards.[8] Hezbollah's three main goals are to eradicate Western colonialism in Lebanon, to bring to justice those who committed atrocities during the war (specifically the Phalangists), and to establish an Islamic government in Lebanon.[5][9][10][11] "
It's not right to blame the soldiers for these wars, but i do blame them for their empathy and ignorance. if you want to blame anyone for these wars, you have to look at the quintessential fact, "Who Benefits?"
moos, The reality is that there needs to be a two state solution in the ME, despite the rhetoric on all sides. The rhetoric needs to die down and compromises to be made on both sides. Reality is that one of the components that is in the START of the peace process is recognition of Israel as a state and the cessation of those intent on it's destuction. Then meaningful talks can be had concerning land and refugees.
But seriously...tell where you guys live so I can pay you a special visit when I get to Iran. I'd love to meet your families. I'll bring a few of my friends, we'll have a great time. What do you say? Names and Addresses please?
Modern day iran used to belongs to the babylonians, which are known as Assyrians today. Persians, are great people that is the persians from Iran, which could be one of the lost tribes of Israel.
Actually, we werent trying to get oil. We were trying to make sure Iraq didnt take other peoples oil. In the 1991 War Iraq invaded Kuwait and was preparing to invade Saudi Arabia. At that time they had the fourth largest military in the world, chemical weapons, and WMDs. If they had captured Saudi Arabia they would have 50% of the worlds oil. We didn't want that so we stopped them, but the UN wouldn't let us finish the job. So now we're finishing it. Just doing a terrible job.
It may be that it never comes to war. I might be wrong, but it seems that people in Iran are realizing that tehy made a terrible mistake with letting Khomeini in and want freedom from oppression. As to the missiles, are you thinking that the US does not have the technology to send some bombs or missiles that would fry all electronics in the area? Pretty hard to fly a missile without electronics.
Because a nuclear armed Iran is not in the cards, the discussion should focus on judging what Iran's reaction will be and acting preemptively if needed. Of course, the goal is to live in peace if possible. But to sit on one's ass until it's too late to do anything is foolhardy.
I think Irans military is no match for a US Air campaing starting with stealth bombers and stealth cruise missiles to cripple ships, airports and communications hubs but can give them a very painfull stinging (like a bee). Vehicles are vulnerable since there's no jungle cover like vietnam. Whats really detering ground invasion imo is potent infantry weapons such as RPGs, shoulder rockets, IDE and motars, that can hide from arial survailance and can be effective in gerrilla warfare
LMFAO!!!!!!!!! Well your right about one thing Mr. Goebbels, I AM NO SOLDIER!!! LOL!!! I'm a UNITED STATES MARINE OFFICER!!! And we as you may or may not know are ALWAYS FAITHFUL. I have been in battle on two continents. I have fought and served my country in war just as the men in my family have had the privilege to do in every American war for two hundred years.
George Bush is long gone it is time to move on Bush was a mistake but so is Ahmadenijad as Americans we have made a great leap in the right direction now the Iranian people have to make the right choice in there upcoming election
My comments on immaturity were directed at iamveryangery777, I don't know why that did not show up when I clicked reply to his silly and immature comments.
The way Persians dismiss people on here makes me aware that they are very far removed from their wonderful history. They now speak like, and sadly think like their current ruling leaders. They don't have the dignity of the history they boast of. They would not fit in with their previous culture with the aggression they display now
I'm thinking your the one who needs to take a glance at a history book. As you pointed out the British and the Americans were in a perfect position to get those sailors. But we're not prepared to start another war. Also its very obvious the Iranians feard the British because they gave the sailors back.
This is interesting. Great posturing by the Iranians. I think that they are acutely aware of the fact that this "force" wont help them if the Americans decide that Iran should end. The funny part is that America can just decide that Iran doesn't need to exist anymore and they can just hit a button. And 30 minutes later Iran will not exist anymore. Hopefully that never happens. In the meantime please spare us from horrible Arab rap. Its really bad. Get a black guy to do it please.
'The population will turn on the gov' Iran can not be compared to any country in the region, the people are extremely patriotic, with a history of greatness. Within minutes the only goverment the population will turn on is the that of the aggressor and the population will make sure any attack is avenged completely and absolutely.
You really don't know what you're talking about. What do you think is more difficult: 1) Fighting people within a country that almost exactly resemble the inhabitants of that country, all while trying to save as many civilians as possible. 2) Just fighting the country itself with no regard to the opposing civilian casualty count. I think its obvious.
Look at this shit!!! Here your English is fluid and well ordered. You make perfect us of Determiner-Adjective-Noun sentence order and the use of suffixes. You also wrote it in perfect tense. "well every champion loses a fight. every civilization takes a hit and that's how they learn and become [w]is[e]r," You even used a fluency intimate superlative: "takes a hit". I've never seen or heard a foreigner who isn't fluent in English use such superlatives. Can you explain this?
i onlydid it here and on one other video. as you know people disrespect one another here so i really didnt mean to engage in any argument with any one. just sharing my opinion. and i read your other response and have respect for your opinion.
The better question is why was Iraq receiving backing from 43 other countries? Why are the all pissed at Iran? Doesn;t that leap out and demand an answer?
Thanks Found it. This is pretty awful and I don't think the excuses made stand up to much scrutiny at all. It's disturbing that messages were not sent via air control to the commercial flight.I wonder why the pilot ignored commands though? No-one disciplined for such a blunder?If it was not an accident, I can't understand the motivation for it. At any rate,America should have made grovelling apologies for this
"Second, so-called two state talks have been going on forever. It's a PR stunt. " apnews today "ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) - Israeli and Palestinian leaders agreed Tuesday to immediately resume long-stalled talks toward a deal by the end of next year that would create an independent Palestinian state, using a U.S.-hosted Mideast peace conference to launch their first negotiations in seven years."
Why can Pakistan, the US and Israel produce nuclear weapons and Iran, not. Come to think of it. That is because they are in ally with the US. Iran has taken its ground to be neutral and established its sovereignity over its industries particularly its oil fields and thus was subjected to every intimidation backed up by big companies who want to take a pie out of its resources. It's not about misunderstanding, mind you. Its all about greed. Defend your country man, I'm with you.
Don't you find it strange that since I called him out on his deception he is nowhere to be seen? Up until 40 minutes ago when I first uncovered his sham, he was posting frequently. Now he is gone. For a such a prideful character as he played, doesn't anyone think it peculiar that he hasn't so much as issued one word in answer of my challenge? If he is indeed an Iranian, then I'm sure he would mind giving us a little demonstration of Farsi.
Israel and the USA will take care of the Iranian threat pretty soon! It is a very beautiful country, it's really sad to see that it is run by some radical crazy dangerous people. It could be such a great country. Well, once freedom and democracy are established, it will become one
Everyone will always have a divergent opinion on what anyone says, don't think that what you assert is of higher value than mine or anyone eles's opinion. rather than criticizing what I say, you should respect my intentions that I just want peace, and war is counter productive, and politically backwards...
assoonas1 , But if you abandon them, the odds are that if the restraints are removed from the Islamists who hate them, that there will be bloodshed. Might you be setting the stage for millions to die? There are other ways to bring pressure to bear than to abandon an ally.
I am interested to hear from you what would have happened if the USA and UK had not attacked Iraq? It may be hard for you to accept, but Sunni's are human beings too and I for one don't want them eliminated from the planet.
The countries are being pressured by the US, banks/companies that do bussiness with Iran are being threatened with having economic ties with the US severed. When the US represents 1/3 of the global economy you can see how this is possible. I am not a great fan of Ahmadinejad, but I agree Iran should have nuclear energy and not bow to foreign pressure. who or what is JC.
It's quite infantile to think that as soon as a regime is destroyed its place can immediately be replaced by American-like democracy. Would you please give me an example of American military intervention from the past decades that eventually ended up with absolute peace and democracy. A nation needs to pass several stages before developing democracy. And please, do not describe the US as democracy bearers around the world. The only thing you stand for is your own interests no matter how inhuman
@crystaluz iran vs irag (other nation + us ...) iran won in 8 years but war between US (other nation) vs irag took about 10 years( Gulf war 1 was between Iraq and the US (with 20 other nations) not in 7 days in fact us +other nation been fought 30 years with iran .

Iran and power don't go together in the same sentence.
When hell freezes over.
Nobody is a match for US nd Europe , If they both deploy their whole power, they can take on the whole world at the same time.

That's what Iraq said before they got their azz kicked by US forces. Iran, Stand by.
The bottom line is, Islam and Democracy don't mix.

we don't have any iranian soap opera.

I can't believe all the arrogance in these comments. If Iran would stop supporting Hamas and Hezbollah then there would be no trouble.
Because a nuclear armed Iran is not in the cards, the discussion should focus on judging what Iran's reaction will be and acting preemptively if needed. Of course, the goal is to live in peace if possible. But to sit on one's ass until it's too late to do anything is foolhardy.
like
who sung this beat
The SAS also had contingency plans to get the troops out of Iran, after they'd been captured. But we're not in it for a war... Just yet.
The fact is that I don't hate Iran either. I want no wars with them or anyone.
It's such a waste.

Support whoever you want against Israel, but the Pals and Israel are BOTH there to stay. You stand in the way of letting there be peace in the ME.
There has been a lot of pain on the israeli side as well. There has to be a cessation of violence at some point. You need to come to grips with that.
See I didn't know that.
