@@Kirinketsu_ Iranians have a long tradition of using the ground beneath. Search "Qanat aqueduct" tunnels. Just like the roman ones but under ground for tens of kilometers. I would say they're much more advanced compared to the roman aqueducts. There are whole ancient cities build underground in iran. Also Taliban is literally on the verge of taking over Afghanistan now, so I am troubled that you use them as an example of American success. The cold war was mostly fought by supporting a pre-existing faction. The only war america fought against a sovereign state since WW2 and won was Iraq. Where it was fought mostly like a conventional state against state war. Here they basically used carpet bombing and then besieged all the cities by the means of blitzkrieg. Blitzkrieg is not possible in the mountains the German could never do it in Southern Europe, British couldn't do it in Italy, only the flat plains of France allowed the breach. There are no ethnic faction that will support the Americans in iran. Iran is comprised of Iranic people or Turkic ones who practice shia faith and speak Persian. The ayatollah ali khomeni is of Turkic decent. So there's very little America can do to split the country up ethnically or religiously. Political it might be possible but politics carry very little real meaning than tribal or spiritual aspects in Iran. The Arial transport of heavy equipment is feasible for relatively small military engagements but for mass mobilization you will need to actually travel at least on ground level if not on property constructed transportation networks. America can bomb the Iranian surface or bucker sights to oblivion and achieve total air superiority. Then roll it's not tanks across the alluvian plains of mesopotamia to take khuzestan and render Iran dry of much of it's oil recourses. But to get across the Zagros they'll have to use infantry, which means casualties in the tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands inflicted upon America and it's foreign and regional allies. If America is willing to suffer more than it did in Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq combined then there's no question America can subgate Iran and all it's people and claim the the right of conquest over the iranian plateau, the most dominant geographic region of West asia. It might take just few months to a year until the American flag flies proudly around the streets of Tehran but the total subgetation of the whole region is destined to take years.
The primary reason the United States continues to maintain such a massive military is to meet it's commitment to it's allies. It might sound a bit pretentious, but America does take it's position as 'the leader of the free world' rather seriously. While there are plenty of examples of good old fashioned realpolitik, at least most Americans are fairly committed to humanitarian interests and defending their allies. A good example is the US bases in South Korea. The cynic in us tells us that those bases are there to threaten the Chinese and as a form of imperialism (which they probably are), but they were also designed primarily to protect South Korea from a North Korean invasion. That's not just the 'official' reasoning, the US is dedicated to defending South Korea from an invasion. And a good example of both concepts smushed into a single psychotic yet oddly heart-warming moment is the war in the Middle East. Everything that happened there, was motivated by the interests of Europe. America originally placed bases and weapons (including Nuclear) to defend European countries. One could argue they did it to protect themselves by making it's other allies into a kind of democratic iron-curtain analogue, but that doesn't change the fact that those bases were there to protect Europe. Those terrorists were funded to destabilize a communist-sympathizing regime, for the sake of Europe. The entire Gulf War was to secure Europe a source of oil that wasn't Russia. Hell, Syria was a former British colony. Say what you want about America... but we got your fucking back for better or worse

As I researched I discovered prior to her "volunteering"(ha) for two weeks for MT in 1996 Louden was actually an anti-religious author having penned or edited multiple books such as "Unveiled: Nuns Talking", ooh and "Revelations: The Clergy Questioned". Not bias at all, coming into MT's hospice juuuusst long enough to claim she's a volunteer.

@@dbsti3006 Yep, it could have gone the other way. Infographics could have grabbed a single source to rip apart Hitchens unfairly. A bit of logic goes a long way, logically MT was too high profile to not have reasonable scrutiny, but you have to ask or maybe search to get a picture into reasonably correct focus. She was running a hospice which is for dying people, not a hospital. If you know India, people die even today let alone during her time, right there in the streets, it's almost unbelievable. The dozens of Indians who work for my brother(programmers) said they saw people die in the streets. MT was able to offer companionship and a bit of respect for what she could. There may be something to the victimhood mentality she had, I don't know and I still have no evidence she did think anything like that. It is not a secret Hitchens admittedly had vice demons plaguing him his whole life, that conflicted with religiious guidance. I think I remember reading he was bisexual for a time(?) and he had lifelong drug and alcohol issues. No matter what the Catholic Church's reputation re pedos and other things, I do know that two things do not go unscrutinized, healthcare and education, mainly due to the fact workers(teachers, doctors) are required to observe and be active in every stage of a person's life. So a nun will not only teach or principal a school, she will visit inmates, some of whom she may have seen earlier in her life. The link in her mind between proper education and preventing human personal tragedy at that point would be easy. There are studies that proved the statistical advantage of a Catholic education even adjusting for socioeconomic factors. I was indigent with no health insurance and a Catholic clinic in Detroit saw me with young Catholic doctors that were donating time. I'm a lapsed Catholic and I doubt many patients at that clinic were religious at all. Catholics never push religion so outside of a small cross on the wall nothing else said, all magazines in that Catholic clinic were secular.
@@Vendrix86 It is when America could just press a button from thousands of miles away and obliterate them. It depends on the type of war it is though. If it's a repeat of Afghanistan with troops on the ground then I agree with you. If it would be like WW2 with nuclear weapons then Iran would be turned to dust instantly
@@Leon-bp6kb Totally different war though. That was to stop the spread of communism and America weren't trying to wipe Vietnam out. I really don't get what people are struggling to understand here. If it was a war similar to Afghanistan with troops on the ground then America would struggle. If the sole aim was to eliminate Iran off the face of the earth and America could use nukes then it would be over instantly.
BTW BAE Systems has risen in importance in the US military design and supply chain since the 1980s. 15% of the F-35 is built in UK and I spoke to an American engineer here in Detroit who was one of about 10,000 US engineers employed by BAE(he worked on the Bradley fighting vehicle). BAE employs thousands of Swedish engineers too. BAE is the only foreign company that has unrestricted top secret access to US military technology. The UK may have lost its colonies but it still has Cambridge!
The real question regarding U.S. vs. anybody, is who is in charge ? If the politicians give a full go ahead the U.S. can smash any single opponent. And therein lies the answer. Go all in or go halfway as in Vietnam or Afghanistan. Yes, we Americans are for a strong military. We would rather destroy someone else's country than allow them to do it to us. The more aid we can give to our allies, the more they are likely to help us if needed, whether that is using their military along side us, or simply allowing us to stage equipment and people in their lands.
If the US can kill Suleimani on an Iraqi airstrip with surgical precision, then I don't understand how Iran could be a threat. Maybe on their land, they could be difficult, but their capacity to hit the US abroad doesn't exist.

A good deal of a nations Military Capability is it's outright battle experience. Is your ARMY soft or Battle Hardened. In the 1980s Iran/Iraq War, Iran's last War, both countries suffered losses but more so Iran. Between their mass infantry assaults against Iraqi Armor and Iraq's Mustard Gas attack against them. There was no leadership that survived to train their future Armies. The US has been at war for twenty years but fresh troops replace those that get out and there are those that stayed with that experience. Through constant rotations between Iraq, Afghanistan ALL our Military Units have Battle Experience. Training also is important but it costs money to do so. No problem there.
SSGN's with other vessels would launch several salvos of Tomahawk cruise missiles to weaken their defense system. After that first salvo, we would probably wait to see what's left then fire off another salvo to hit other things. Then would come carrier based air ops, followed by A-10's and other jets out of the EU to handle the tanks and ground equipment. We would do a lot of ordnance drops before the first boots hit Iranian soil.
@@robertdysonn I actually wrote 2 sentences about the 7 year long takeover of Iraq by politicians under the guise of nation building after the 'official' end of military ops but deleted them because that, and what you said, has absolutely nothing to do with the purpose of military power and its objectives; to kill people and break shit. They did their job. Your conflation of the 2 is misplaced.
Clearly I'm just speaking for myself but the British are like family and what is ours is yours because we will always have your back just like how you have had ours. Love from the U.S Sending love to Iran. No one wants war. Peace and love to Iran from U.S
If it’s one military against the other of course the United States would win however I feel like it would be more like a war in Iraq where we’re fighting guerrilla style and that’s when the Americans struggle. Will kick anybody’s ass when it comes to military face-offs but in guerrilla warfare we generally walk away the losers as we did in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan.
@@maryjoygelizon4268 yes but this is talking about during the war. Not afterwards. It will be much easier to fight someone you know who's the enemy vs fighting someone you don't know who's the enemy

ACTUALLY, it depends on who is in charge of the fighting on the American side... America seems to have a problem with letting the actual Military runs things and kick ass and take names... Instead, Congress / the Federal Government thinks they can resolve the crap with milder methods, that don't work... See Vietnam and now Afghanistan... They were Congress / Government (not military) run "conflicts" instead of military wars... Last time the Military was in charge was Desert Storm and Desert Shield... They were over and done quick with positive results in short order... The Afghan war started with lies about WMD's in Iraq... Of course it was all BS, we put Saddam Hussein in power back in the 80's and we lost control... After 911 they used it and lies about WMD's to get rid of Hussein and grab the oil for Exxon / Mobil... In the process we went into Afghanistan looking for Bin Laden and the Taliban, but we got rid of Hussein and got control of the oil in Iraq first... Now, 20 years later it is Vietnam all over again... We are pulling out and turning it over to the enemy... All because the US government would not let the US Military actually kick ass, but instead it was just another Police Action" type of deal that failed like it always does... Sad, but true...

Nice reaction and an unprejudiced discussion at the end. I only just found your channel, so I'm not sure if you've looked at any videos from the channel I am going to recommend. Geography Now is pretty good. They've been going for a few years, describing all of the countries in the UN. The channel is a little less about war and destruction and more about geography (of course), history, people, and culture. As you're already on the subject of Iran, you might want to take a look at their Iran episode. ua-cam.com/video/2xQM4Zy5zIk/v-deo.html
Any of these 'Who would win' videos are fun. But you have to ask in this one, 'Who would win what?'. It would be inconceivable to imagine Iran in the US. But it is almost as unlikely for the US to be in Iran. Iran would be much tougher to invade than Afghanistan. Any US attack would polarize Iran. It is reported that the new found freedoms in Iran may be the revolutions undoing. Some dissidents are disappearing but large groups of protestors are left alone too. Be interesting to see how it all works out. Short of Iran going nuclear or threats they carry through on, I say leave them alone.

Never underestimate your opponent, the USA (and others) losing in slam dunk olympic events is a good example. Best thing to do is make your opponent your ally by focusing on trade dependency which works best if the businesses have political influence. If there is a regime in danger of insurrection(China and Iran) then all bets are off, stay out of the way until there is a winner. Iran and China are tough nuts because their regimes can act against their trade interests.

@@GoGoPooerRangers Eh, I don't know. I think the weakest resource the US military has is its people. Soldiers who don't know how to fight because they have never been challenged and leaders who got all their "leadership skills" in fights that weren't challenging. We have the bombs and the bullets, but not the intellect I think. When has the military ever been surgical in anything. They just go in, bomb everything, and call it a victory. What solider today in the US military has had to fight an actual army that was on par? Do they even know what its like to go up against aircraft or a fleet of tanks? Or have they simply always had the luxury of air superiority and so jets took out all the real hard shit before they got there. So their experience hitherto is, a bunch of guys running in and out of caves with AKs and RPGs.
They Iranians don't really care for that as they fight asymmetrically rather then the US does conventionally. That's why they've stocked up on Anti-ship ballistic missiles, patrol boats, remote-controlled boats, cruise missiles and land-based ballistic missiles. And moved land-based systems on mobile platforms or underground facilities. They'll just make landing in Iran bloody enough to force the US to give up a full occupation, given there's only the sometimes narrow Persian Gulf the Iranians need to defend it makes it much easier, the US military has run through simulations of scenarios of invading Iran and it'll give the US a very bloody-nose on first invasion...let alone taking Iran which has more difficult terrain than even Afghanistan.
We wouldn’t even bother to smack them down, we’d have Israel do it for us..not even worth our time. They don’t do things directly either, they use splinter groups bc they can’t take the heat.🤣
From newly released info @centcom says proves Iran was behind attack on ship Mercer Street. "Experts were able to recover several pieces of this third UAV, eg a vertical stabilizer & internal components nearly identical to previous examples from Iranian one-way attack UAV." Hold onto yer butts!

No matter what the Catholic Church's reputation re pedos and other things, I do know that two things do not go unscrutinized, healthcare and education, mainly due to the fact workers(teachers, doctors) are required to observe and be active in every stage of a person's life. So a nun will not only teach or principal a school, she will visit inmates, some of whom she may have seen earlier in her life. The link in her mind between proper education and preventing human personal tragedy at that point would be easy. There are studies that proved the statistical advantage of a Catholic education even adjusting for socioeconomic factors. I was indigent with no health insurance and a Catholic clinic in Detroit saw me with young Catholic doctors that were donating time. I'm a lapsed Catholic and I doubt many patients at that clinic were religious at all. Catholics never push religion so outside of a small cross on the wall nothing else said, all magazines in that Catholic clinic were secular.

Assuming it was no holds barred, America could wipe Iran off the face of the planet in about five seconds.
war is never that easy...
@@Vendrix86 It is when America could just press a button from thousands of miles away and obliterate them. It depends on the type of war it is though. If it's a repeat of Afghanistan with troops on the ground then I agree with you. If it would be like WW2 with nuclear weapons then Iran would be turned to dust instantly
@@Vendrix86 it would have to be nuclear, which would start a nuclear world war… which would end the planet.
Nope, u are very wrong
@@Leon-bp6kb Totally different war though. That was to stop the spread of communism and America weren't trying to wipe Vietnam out. I really don't get what people are struggling to understand here. If it was a war similar to Afghanistan with troops on the ground then America would struggle. If the sole aim was to eliminate Iran off the face of the earth and America could use nukes then it would be over instantly.
I’m sure it would go a lot like desert storm total destruction in a very short amount of time

Yup. We did this one once already. It wouldn’t be much of a problem. Until the politics started mucking things up.
@@LegendNinja41 Got food on the brain?
@@fuzzhead76 OP yes.
My Backyard National Guard would beat Iran.
Not to mention our $700B budget is just over 2% of our GDP. We could double that and really have a warring machine
BTW BAE Systems has risen in importance in the US military design and supply chain since the 1980s. 15% of the F-35 is built in UK and I spoke to an American engineer here in Detroit who was one of about 10,000 US engineers employed by BAE(he worked on the Bradley fighting vehicle). BAE employs thousands of Swedish engineers too. BAE is the only foreign company that has unrestricted top secret access to US military technology. The UK may have lost its colonies but it still has Cambridge!
Would love some more military stuff !
The real question regarding U.S. vs. anybody, is who is in charge ? If the politicians give a full go ahead the U.S. can smash any single opponent. And therein lies the answer. Go all in or go halfway as in Vietnam or Afghanistan. Yes, we Americans are for a strong military. We would rather destroy someone else's country than allow them to do it to us. The more aid we can give to our allies, the more they are likely to help us if needed, whether that is using their military along side us, or simply allowing us to stage equipment and people in their lands.
If the US can kill Suleimani on an Iraqi airstrip with surgical precision, then I don't understand how Iran could be a threat. Maybe on their land, they could be difficult, but their capacity to hit the US abroad doesn't exist.
the best thing is the Iran gov prob thinks their citizens would fight for them vs the US lmao

A good deal of a nations Military Capability is it's outright battle experience. Is your ARMY soft or Battle Hardened. In the 1980s Iran/Iraq War, Iran's last War, both countries suffered losses but more so Iran. Between their mass infantry assaults against Iraqi Armor and Iraq's Mustard Gas attack against them. There was no leadership that survived to train their future Armies. The US has been at war for twenty years but fresh troops replace those that get out and there are those that stayed with that experience. Through constant rotations between Iraq, Afghanistan ALL our Military Units have Battle Experience. Training also is important but it costs money to do so. No problem there.
Im half of both....soo plz dont war guys. Lol.
SSGN's with other vessels would launch several salvos of Tomahawk cruise missiles to weaken their defense system. After that first salvo, we would probably wait to see what's left then fire off another salvo to hit other things.
Then would come carrier based air ops, followed by A-10's and other jets out of the EU to handle the tanks and ground equipment.
We would do a lot of ordnance drops before the first boots hit Iranian soil.
Iraq had all of that stuff too and considered the 4th most powerful military on Earth when we invaded. Baghdad lasted less than 30 days.
January 17 - February 28 1991, a little more than 30 days
@@mclovinU2night lol oh ok
And keep in mind that Iran and Iraq were at war for quite a while and it was pretty much a stalemate.
Baghdad fell quick but we were there fighting for quite a while and the truth is we really didn’t win that war. Not in the long run we didn’t.
@@robertdysonn I actually wrote 2 sentences about the 7 year long takeover of Iraq by politicians under the guise of nation building after the 'official' end of military ops but deleted them because that, and what you said, has absolutely nothing to do with the purpose of military power and its objectives; to kill people and break shit.
They did their job. Your conflation of the 2 is misplaced.
Clearly I'm just speaking for myself but the British are like family and what is ours is yours because we will always have your back just like how you have had ours.

If it’s one military against the other of course the United States would win however I feel like it would be more like a war in Iraq where we’re fighting guerrilla style and that’s when the Americans struggle. Will kick anybody’s ass when it comes to military face-offs but in guerrilla warfare we generally walk away the losers as we did in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan.
Iran actually has an army. It will be military vs military. Not Soldiers disguised as civilians and doing suicide bombings.
@@sirwadsontoast5928 iraq was military vs military.. correct me if im wrong but didn't the US (+other allies of course) blitz tf out of iraq?

The Columbia is the new Ohio Class
It's simple... the people that own the company building the bunkers also owns the company building the bombs. That's why Americans spend so much on "defense".
the thing is Iran never shows the real weapons🤣 they show outdated stuff but they will surprise you in action like that electronic weapon that will disable every ship and aircraft 🤣🤣

They would definitely show that off if they had it
Doubt it, their technology is so far behind.

I love USA and UK...
ACTUALLY, it depends on who is in charge of the fighting on the American side... America seems to have a problem with letting the actual Military runs things and kick ass and take names... Instead, Congress / the Federal Government thinks they can resolve the crap with milder methods, that don't work... See Vietnam and now Afghanistan... They were Congress / Government (not military) run "conflicts" instead of military wars... Last time the Military was in charge was Desert Storm and Desert Shield... They were over and done quick with positive results in short order... The Afghan war started with lies about WMD's in Iraq... Of course it was all BS, we put Saddam Hussein in power back in the 80's and we lost control... After 911 they used it and lies about WMD's to get rid of Hussein and grab the oil for Exxon / Mobil... In the process we went into Afghanistan looking for Bin Laden and the Taliban, but we got rid of Hussein and got control of the oil in Iraq first... Now, 20 years later it is Vietnam all over again... We are pulling out and turning it over to the enemy... All because the US government would not let the US Military actually kick ass, but instead it was just another Police Action" type of deal that failed like it always does... Sad, but true...

Nice reaction and an unprejudiced discussion at the end. I only just found your channel, so I'm not sure if you've looked at any videos from the channel I am going to recommend. Geography Now is pretty good. They've been going for a few years, describing all of the countries in the UN. The channel is a little less about war and destruction and more about geography (of course), history, people, and culture. As you're already on the subject of Iran, you might want to take a look at their Iran episode. ua-cam.com/video/2xQM4Zy5zIk/v-deo.html
Before the video starts I'm gonna call it for the USA, just a hunch.
It'll just boil down to a wrestling match anyway.
Thats y us can't attack iran? Wow😂😂
Any of these 'Who would win' videos are fun. But you have to ask in this one, 'Who would win what?'. It would be inconceivable to imagine Iran in the US. But it is almost as unlikely for the US to be in Iran. Iran would be much tougher to invade than Afghanistan. Any US attack would polarize Iran. It is reported that the new found freedoms in Iran may be the revolutions undoing. Some dissidents are disappearing but large groups of protestors are left alone too. Be interesting to see how it all works out. Short of Iran going nuclear or threats they carry through on, I say leave them alone.

Never underestimate your opponent, the USA (and others) losing in slam dunk olympic events is a good example. Best thing to do is make your opponent your ally by focusing on trade dependency which works best if the businesses have political influence. If there is a regime in danger of insurrection(China and Iran) then all bets are off, stay out of the way until there is a winner. Iran and China are tough nuts because their regimes can act against their trade interests.

To hide funding when audits arise. That's all I can think, because by looking at them, it's an absolute joke.

America hasn't had a successful war/conflict/engagement/whatever since WW2.
Lol if the US truly wanted to win they could, it was always a way for the military industry to make money.
@@GoGoPooerRangers Eh, I don't know. I think the weakest resource the US military has is its people. Soldiers who don't know how to fight because they have never been challenged and leaders who got all their "leadership skills" in fights that weren't challenging. We have the bombs and the bullets, but not the intellect I think. When has the military ever been surgical in anything. They just go in, bomb everything, and call it a victory.
What solider today in the US military has had to fight an actual army that was on par? Do they even know what its like to go up against aircraft or a fleet of tanks? Or have they simply always had the luxury of air superiority and so jets took out all the real hard shit before they got there. So their experience hitherto is, a bunch of guys running in and out of caves with AKs and RPGs.
Wouldn't Goliath be Iran? 🤔
Iran was a westernized country hence the American fighter jets before the religious fundamentalists took over.
Really? The question alone makes me laugh. Sanctions alone have made Iran military nothing. Old Soviet Cold War military equipment
They Iranians don't really care for that as they fight asymmetrically rather then the US does conventionally. That's why they've stocked up on Anti-ship ballistic missiles, patrol boats, remote-controlled boats, cruise missiles and land-based ballistic missiles. And moved land-based systems on mobile platforms or underground facilities. They'll just make landing in Iran bloody enough to force the US to give up a full occupation, given there's only the sometimes narrow Persian Gulf the Iranians need to defend it makes it much easier, the US military has run through simulations of scenarios of invading Iran and it'll give the US a very bloody-nose on first invasion...let alone taking Iran which has more difficult terrain than even Afghanistan.
