Why can't Israel join in? Just fly from non-Israeli bases and don't wear colors. Do you think the Iranians will be able to deduce that from another half dozen squadrons in the area, a long way away from their sight? And also, if it was going that badly for Iran, and they had the threats that Israel has claimed for the last 20+ years, why would they not launch everything? Again, it would be in Israel's interest to step in. Mr. Binkov, could I entice you to make a similar vid with Israel in the picture?
@@gnomespacejust a reminder it took less than 20 missiles of hte smallest kind to disable one american base namely ayn al assad so america showed its hand and its not full they just showed it again with this histerical action flying planes all the way from american soil which makes american soil a target
Yes! Which could be absolutely devastating to the global economy as a whole. This is why despite all the tough talk and flexing, this situation needs to be dealt with delicately.
@@alonmarkovitz2898 if they attack it means iran has nothing to lose so as all the countries in the gulf iran will gona say if you gona sink me im gona take all the region with me and this means the world on fire since China and Russia will not let iran fall and so on....
@@MrGodbodyNewday you are technically right but also no, because it was the Houthis (Iranian proxy) and not Iran itself, and Saudi Arabia wasn’t interested in starting a war against Iran so they did nothing, but if there’s already a war - of course if Iran hits Saudi like that Saudi will attack back
Yep and Iran has no plan..once they lose their major grouped oil fields and refineries they will collapse over night. With civil war, the US backed prince faction will take over again. But the US is hesitant because this opinion would lead to millions of innocent people in Iran dying...but they are poking the bear. It's coming, especially if Biden is elected again or any other Democrat, if Trump is elected we will have mutual peace.
The U.S. didn't lose in Afghanistan. It accomplished its goals of killing of Al-Queda and then decided an ongoing U.S. military presence was no longer in its interests. Not much advantage to trying to turn Afghanistan into a modern secular country. It's a money pit. The U.S. doesn't need to occupy Iran or try to rebuild it. All it has to do is damage Iran's economy and infrastructure to the point that Iran can no longer arm and fund terrorist groups in Yemen, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Israel etc. and can't manufacture or launch missiles and can't maintain a nuclear weapons program. There won't be a repeat of Iraq or Afghanistan because the U.S. doesn't need to put boots on the ground. Iran can be left broken. It won't be a be able to create trouble for anyone else beyond its borders. Except maybe a refugee crisis, like in Syria. Since Syria, the Europeans have gotten pretty good at locking down their borders, so that refugee crisis will be Afghanistan and Pakistan and Iraq and Syria and Azerbaijan and Armenia and Turkey and Turkmenistan and Russia's problem. If Turkey or Pakistan or India or the Saudis want to move in and take territory from what's left of Iran, or if the various ethnic groups within Iran breakaway or join neighboring countries and leave a small Persian rump state that's too weak to make trouble, no skin off the U.S.'s back. U.S. relations with India, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan and the Kurdish are a lot better than U.S. relations with the current Iranian government. Is there some threat that the U.S. needs a strong Iranian regime to contain? The case for leaving Iraq in place was to contain Iran. What's the case, from the U.S. perspective, for leaving Iran in place? To contain Turkey or the Saudis? To keep the Russians out of central Asia?
@@expertbrody9914 LOL You were in a couple of stations and that was all about it. You were defeated by an army of some 8000 soldiers in sandals in the caves.
But what would with US economy ? If US started the war VS Iran after 2 days Preis of Oil would be 200 $ !!!! All refineries in Qatar and big refineries and oil port in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia in Persian Golf would be dead . It s about 15 million barrels daily !!!! And don t forget that all Western economies can not import oil from Rusia . In two months all western economie with this Oil Preis would be broken !!!
I think Iran's missile capabilties have been understated in this video. Iran's long range missiles serve as its primary deterrace strategy, but you barely mentioned them. The USA would struggle with an effective air campaign as all their airbases in the region would be destroyed. Many planes may be destroyed on the ground. That would leave the USA with its carrier groups, but aircraft carrier launched planes won't be able to "set Iran back over a decade" as Iran is simply too large for such a limited number of planes to be effective. Carrier groups can vulnerable to anti ship missiles. Russia would provide Iran with air defence systems and anti ship missiles. Ultimately I think the USA will avoid this war as it would only serve to weaken their position in the middle east. This is why Iran is able to get away with supplying Yemen with weapons to blockade the Red Sea. Ita also why Iran has also been able to launch missile attacks on US bases in other countries with no real retaliation from the US.
They would most likely enjoy what real-time intelligence the Russian and perhaps the Chinese could supply them. After US and NATO actions in Ukraine, I don't think such a scenario is to far fetched. That might hamper US carrier fleet's ability to deploy, as it might empower Iran to attack it.
@@TWE_2000 China has been consistently launching more reconnaissance satellites than the US for years now. Binkov has covered this. Don't underestimate them.
@@fibodegjenn4411 yes I would as there is no proof china has ever killed any carrier. How can you prove it works? Ill bet all 11 multi billion dollar Super nuclear aircraft carriers china would never attack either. Peasant.
Flattening Bandar Abbas naval base might be enough to deter Iran, but probably not. The problem is, once you start, it's going to be virtually impossible to descalate the conflict. Iran will likely do its utmost to close the Straits of Hormuz and cripple oil and gas exports from the Middle East. In turn, the world's economy would be massively disrupted. Stock markets would plummet. Is Iran worth the effort at this point in history. I suspect only as a last resort. To defeat Iran outright would need a ground invasion with +750,000 troops at a minimum. Iran is vast. Plus, no large field army wants to deal with a guerrilla war, which would inevitably follow. Iranians may not like their leaders very much, but they would hate foreign troops far more. Ensuring China doesn't try anything in Taiwan and Russia doesn't win in Ukraine is of higher priority right now.
9:54 I would assume Iran has prepared and will continue to prepare more and more decoy targets for those expensive air to ground missiles. Economically it would be basically unwindable war in my opinion. It would further decline quality of life for every american. Thus increasing change of domestic civil disagreement.
@@trentsuveges7622 Except that Iran is many times stronger than Iraq in 2003. It has to be an operation on scale of D-Day in 1944. I don’t think US can realize this scale in 2024.
Iran is 4 times bigger with more than 100 million people living there Most importantly it's a mountainous country like Afghanistan and has huge influence among Shia Muslims and Persian communities in central Asia
@@krasavchik8714 Long Live the Islamic Republic of Iran. 🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷 Proud to be a Muslim and an Iranian. Our nation will stand strong and fight all aggressors.
the problem with videos like this is that they always have a symmetric mindset . Iran doesn't play classic warfare that's why its creating those proxies so it has access to coasts of Yemen to also conduct attacks from there . also let's not forget Iranian attack in 2019 on Saudi oil industry cut their oil production in half in just one single swarm attack . so a war with Iran also makes Energy infrastructures and Major trade ports a target for Iran , also there is the nuclear capabilities involved which added to the overall complexity
This whole video is basically assuming that the USA uses a brain-damaged approach to combating Iran. Unfortunately, there is little evidence to say that wouldn't be the approach. The American approach to the Houthi issue is a counter argument suggesting that they would pick an even worse strategy.
America is no where near as strong as they were in 2001-2003 yes most Americans believe they can beat any country but they are wrong. All most all Middle East countries are drifting away from 🇺🇸 40 years of building this regime is based on defence and strength of its arm force. While 🇺🇸 with less allies failing political choices they made they have to sacrifice Ukraine for Iran Russian then will pump Iran with lots arms and aid so as china
@@Chuck_Hooks Well it's the only way they can feel like they are winning... by deluding themselves to the point where they cannot even distinguish between reality and their own lies.
@@Chuck_Hookswow what powerful allies Qatar is a city more a hotel And Saudi Arabia has lost a war in Yemen against houthies A powerful country that seeks protection from bigger loser 😂😂
Only China can mass-produce a comparable number of warships and fighter jets as the United States, and compete with the United States in the field of aerospace. The focus we have to focus on is not Iran or Russia, because neither Iran nor Russia has the comprehensive strength of China.
I am willing to bet that no country located near Iran would be willing to allow its territory to be used for the launching of attacks against Iran! They all know perfectly well that, if that happens, Iran would be launching missiles against them too!
What US Strategic Interest or National Security Issue requires US Military Personnel in Jordan, Syria, and Iraq? Besides being human targets, what's the MISSION????
What's the MISSION? Regional Security, not for us but our allies. Jordan asked the US for our forces there. Staying in Iraq keeps Iran out, which is good for literally everybody except Iran. Syria, that is a little bit more of a tough one.
Can only be spoken by a MAGA... Isolationists that believe no American interests exists outside the borders of the US. No understanding of the interests of international commerce and how that directly affects the health and welfare of themselves. Can't see the economic benefits by being part of a global community that peacefully trades goods and services, much that is returned to the US. Thinks that the only things that are important is as far as the eye can see and no further.
They protect their allies and therefor the region is more stable. Stable regions mean good economies and good economies make for excellent trading partners. If america were to stop all trade tommorrow they would lose most of their wealth and economy. They have an expeditionary millitary so they can project power everywhere and protect global trade. Because they profit from global free trade the most. Oh and their allies literally asked them for protection. It is a win- win for everyone except for aggressors near by. Even though your question was most likely nothing but bad faits, I gave you a good faith answer.
the US has historically understated its capabilities, whereas its enemies have historically overstated their own. It's not a question of whether the US can militarily achieve its objectives- it doesn't have a military budget larger than the next 10 countries combined for no reason- but rather, if the US can achieve the political victory at home. Will the US be able to maintain public support for the war? That's usually been the reason for its lost wars. Lack of political will to do what needs to be done in order to win.
You have missed the most important factors here. A sinking Iran would drown the whole world alongside. Iran's retaliation will not be limited to just attacking US bases and assets. The entire economy and oil industries of the region will collapse during such a war. In just one single attack, Saudi Arabia lost 50% of its oil production capacity overnight. This will happen again on a scale beyond imagination. The Strait of Hormuz will be shut down for months to come, resulting in catastrophic damage to the global economy. Iran's proxies will be engaged in full force, and things will quickly spiral out of control for the US, now forced to engage on multiple fronts. Additionally, Russia and China would try to capitalize on the situation. Furthermore, as you have noted, this kind of campaign would require a long time to prepare logistics in order to set things in motion. This will not go unnoticed by Iran's intelligence agencies. Iran would go nuclear before the US is even ready to fire its first shots. That is why we have never seen and will never see such a military action against Iran actually materialize beyond words and fantasies.

My father spent 1977 in Iran helping modernize the shipyards and train their Navy. He made many friends and came home with a love and appreciation for the Iranian people. Many of those friends were killed during and after the revolution. Hopefully youre free of the government you have someday and can join the world as a responsible and free nation. Good luck!!!
Assuming that the Arabs would join in by providing bases is a bit risky. Iran wouldn't be targeting their bases, they would target the oil infrastructure and attempt to stop shipping through the Persian gulf. Oil prices would jump and Russia would be benefiting. It's more realistic to assume an attack using only carriers, which is much less powerful and would take longer. It would be crazy for the Saudi monarchy to give Iran an excuse to rain a thousand missiles on their oil fields
exactly, this video is probably accurate if we were in 2006 not in 2024, A LOT have changed since then, thinking that saudi arabia is still hostile to iran and will let US use its bases is just like thinking US can strike deep into chine from india's territory, its so out of touch and borderline delusional. countries like saudi arabia and UAE are not usa puppets anymore they only follow their interests which is money, that's why they are not hostile to russia even after a lot of western pressure.
And still even then no one can guarantee that for example the yamanis won't attack the oil infrastructure. This video is quite limited to only military aspects. The reality is that such an attack is a suicide for any politician and only benefits Russia and China in the long term.
So many things are wrong with this report, let point out few most important ones that this report conveniently failed to mention and we all know why. When in 2012 Foreign Policy reported that Israel my use Sitalchay Military Airbase in Azerbaijan to attack nuclear program sites in Iran back then Iranians made it very clear to Azerbaijan and every Iranian neighbor using country’s territory or its airspace is a direct and open declaration of war against Iran and Iran will strike back immediately at the decision making centers and if necessary use ground troops. Iranian neighbors especially Gulf States will never allow US or any other power to use their territory or airspace to strike Iran if there is no direct and serious threat to them and Iran is not threatening to invade anyone but if attacked and Iran decided to use ground troops it will be hell for everybody. If there is a military action vs Iran all US military bases in the Middle East will be of no use to the US, it will be US alone, even Israel may not join the fight, The Houthis are best example there will be no coalition of 30 like vs Iraq 1991-2003, as soon as Houthis said they would strike back coalition of 12 falls apart overnight in Dec 2023 Iran’s capability of a precision strikes at 1000+KM is real and their stockpiles of cruise missiles and long range drones are not in thousands as Binkov claims but in tens of thousands and that’s what makes Iran almost impossible to attack and not even mentioning Iran's supported groups in Yemen, Lebanon, Iraq and Syria.
And Iran would just sit back & do nothing, not attack the neighbours & destroy their infrastructure, not close the Persian Gulf & collapse the world economy, not get their proxies to attack American & Israeli targets. And what would happen if China decides to repatriate Taiwan, and North Korea repatriates South Korea at the same time? It's very easy to start a war, but how it develops, where it goes & how it ends is another matter.
Not completely on topic, but I’m fairly certain North Korea attacking South Korea would go a lot like Hamas attacking Israel last year. Whatever pain North Korea manages to inflict on its neighbors in the first hours would almost immediately be met with an overwhelming military retaliation that has a lot of potential to be a PR disaster for the heavily well equipped South Koreans who definitely aren’t starving. Would basically be a scaled up version of the Gaza conflict
@@missk1697Long story short: In the event of an outbreak of Korean hostilities in the modern world, North Korea would have Hamas level offensive capabilities after week one.
Dear military enthusiasts from all over the world, let us stop any bragging now. It is extremely difficult for a country no matter how powerful it is to defeat another great country militarily.
Iran is not a great country by any means. The only thing theyre good at is supporting terrorist groups. But I agree overall, the US should save their military ressources for more dangerous adversaries.
The shorts are not for Binkov. Binkov does not make videos for idiots with a 30 second attention span. Unless you use the shorts just to promote ypur real videos, I would say stay away from them.
I don't believe the US would be interested in any form of regime change in Iran, but as history shows in Nimble Archer 1987 and Praying Mantis 1988, there are very effective alternatives available without the expenditure of thousands of bombs and missiles. Adding modern US capabilities to an Archer and Mantis framework would be an attractive solution. An operation in the vein of Archer and Mantis, with the addition of targeting all 10 Iran operated imaging and communications satellites, and an all out cyber attack on Iranian finance management assets, would likely leave Iran too occupied with recovery for a significant time. I would be very surprised if this isn't the way the next US administration will choose to move forward.
There aren’t any anti-satellite options currently available that are both permanent and won’t create massive debris fields that will both cause a major international incident and endanger US and allied nations’ space assets.
@@jonathanpfeffer3716 The SM 3 is capable of anti satellite missions, apart from what is available but secret. The risk of any debris interfering with other near earth objects is miniscule, and in the unlikely event it does happen, the US is more than capable of providing replacement and compensation. Small price to pay to avoid another all out war in the middle east.
@@PersonalityMalfunction It’s not a low chance at all. Existing ASAT tests have already had issues with that, and those were all exclusively LEO sats that were actively in the process of deorbiting. It is absolutely impossible to predict trajectories of debris fields and a hit to kill warhead creates, to use a scientific term, a f ton of debris. Even very small quantities of sats being affected would create massive costs, in the billions at the minimum. That’s not a small price to pay by any means. It also carries massive non-financial costs. The US has been an outspoken voice condemning ASAT testing for the above reasons and contradicting ourselves by executing such a relatively massive ASAT attack would deal a big blow to our credibility. And if it hit any of our allies sats which would be statistically very likely given most sats in orbit are either American or allied, then dear god that is a nightmare of a diplomatic incident. Again, there’s no way to mitigate this, which is why the USAF has been investing so much into non-kinetic ASAT options. The SM-3 also only has speculated capability to intercept LEO sats, leaving multiple Iranian sats outside of reach. The same applies to the air launched derivative. There’s much better options. Iranian sats aren’t even particularly impactful to their military capabilities. They’re dated to say the least.
Wow to think we’d get to test our 6th generation bomber so quickly truly Iran is being super considerate and offering their country up as the payload target and even offering to try to track the bomber. Such a nice country I hope they enjoy their new parking lots
Yeah, B-21 is already flying, and there's also that stealth drone swarm out of Tonopah. Plus who knows what else we don't know about. If the US were to go to war with Iran, Iran is a big enough of a threat that it would justify bringing out the black projects. This video also ignores cyberwarfare, special forces and CIA spooks starting a civil war, and every other dirty trick in the book. The US would not fight fair against a country like Iran.

@@terrypennington2519 Iran knows it can’t go head to head with US navy that’s why they invested in swarm of small missile boats and bunch of anti- ship weapons. I can give you a prime example just look at Ukraine and how it’s man handling the Russian navy in the Black Sea.

Strikes with cruise missiles and other stand off missiles systems targeting Iranian nuclear plants(suspected of enriching programs), oil production, as well as Iran's navy and air force would just take a few days and make the point. The US doesnt have to go anywhere near Iran to spank them, but Iran has little to hit back at(some bases in the middle east would get hit, but few casualties). To bad America and the west are so concerned about innocent civilian casualties(not sure there is such a thing in Islam). Plus America always wants to make rules which always benefit our enemies and do nothing to avoid accusations of war crimes(if you are going to get blamed anyways. why not? War is meant to be vile).
The media makes fools, a million tons of bombs have been tested, the casualties are foreign women and children, fake democracy for you, we don't want it.👎🏻👎🏻
Although I do not think that the US will want to get involved in a war directly with Iran at this point in time, I would like to make some points: 1) The idea of Qatar being 'politically shaky' and friendly with Iran is not really true. Qatar has a most devious policy and has been a leading power in attacking Iran's influence around the region. Iran and Qatar share an oilfield so they have to get on, but this is just superficial. The Wahabist Qataris hate all Shias as intolerable heretics, and want them exterminated, which is why Qatar has been the leading funder or radical armed Sunni groups. In Syria it was actually Qatar that funded most of the radical Sunni armed groups trying to overthrow Assad (as in Idlib). Qatar and CENTCOM have long co-ordinated their activities in places like Syria and Libya. In Libya Qatar again played the leading role in supplying and training anti-Qaddafi armed groups. Note that immediately before this, Qatar posed as friendly to Qaddafi. They get close to those they wish to stab in the back. That a lot of these facts have been deliberately kept out of public view is a testament to how close the west and Qatar are. No one is allowed to criticise Qatar, and it has purchased influence only rivalling that of Israel, in the west. The fact that Qatar owns Hamas and was almost certainly the main funder and supplier of the Hamas attack on Israel, has also been deliberately kept out of public view, with Doha, Washington and London all working hard to pretend Iran was behind it. 2) If you are considering bases which could be used against Iran by the US you should include Turkey in particular, and some parts of Europe which lie not so far from Iran. (Turkey and Qatar worked together against Iran inside Syria, and have a deep alliance) We should also remember that long range cruise missiles (such a Tomahawks), and other forms of missiles would play a large role in any attack on Iran. Many of these can be launched from naval units at sea, which can be moved around a lot, and from some standoff distance.
They don’t understand they think because they have a you tube channel or that they have followers they know exactly how the United States would fight Iran It would be a lot worse for Iran than what this channel says ppl always try to play down how strong America like China and Russia saying American power is falling they are crazy and just trying to spread misinformation which I think is absolutely funny 😂 they are so pissed that they can’t be like America

The middle east is not the only producer of oil. Not to mention that they rely on US/EU imports . After a severve famine we can just come in and clean up.
To strike here and there is very easy, but to launch a full scale "Iraq' style offensive against Iran is different ball game. NATO will be in forever if US were to attack on Iran. Besides, air campaign is no way going to end well for US troops & bases in the region. But when it comes to conquering Iran, you will require whole international community on your side including Russia and China... Otherwise, Iran is not Afghanistan or Iraq to invade & stay!
Air strikes will cause heavy damage to iranian oil rigs and nuclear facilities and in return iran cannot damage any american infrastructure so iran has more to loose in a war
UPDATE: in the last few months, analysts have stated that Russia sent S 500 SAMS which are designed to hit F-22 and F-35 stealth fighters as well as hypersonic missiles. Definitely a game changer in this fight
Wrong, the S 500 cannot even deal with a 40 year old Patriot system. We have stuff that makes the Patriot system look like a catapult. As for their "hypersonic missiles", they have been proven to be fake.
i mean make a comment against indias govt in any way and you get dozens of indians going patriotic for some reason so i agree with grey here, some countries just have extra duty of patriotism for whatever reason against criticism or assessments
Bro forgot to tell you, Iran actually caught and landed one of those ultra-stealthy RQ-180 drones, which is the pinnacle of US stealth technology, even stealthier than the B-2 due to its smaller size. I repeat, Iran didn't just shoot down that drone, unlike the case with the Global Hawk in 2019 and a dozen others, but they nicely landed it. So, you better not underestimate your enemy, because we Iranians sure don't.
@@michaela8676 What misinformation, dude? The forced landing of that RQ-180-they even published the recorded clips onboard from that drone, which captured some of the US bases in Afghanistan during takeoff and landing. It happened a decade ago, but you guys are still in denial mode? Lol!
The US Military is built with long extended warfare and multiple fronts as well as advanced reliability and survivabilty in mind. Its a Very large country capable of out producing nearly every competitor if in a Dire Wartime setting.

Would Saudi allow the USA to use bases in Saudi's land to launch attacks on Iran? Considering Saudi and Iran had just buried the hatchet, and reconnected diplomacy with each other. The fact that USA sovereignty has not been attacked could be considered that Saudi has no obligation to allow their bases to be used for launching a military attack on Iran, as a USA ally.
Agreed but here's some history. After the Gulf War in 90-91, we had a large civilian amount of government contractors and military personell stationed in Saudi. In 96 the contractors and military personnel we're attacked at the Colbert Towers and many people we're killed. It was later learned Bin Laden and his Al Qaeda fools attacked the complex, that led up to the USS Cole bombings and 911. As we know Bin Laden was a Saudi prince, and thought the evil American infidels were invaders, and were on sacred ground. After that attack the Clinton administration didnt do a danm thing and Saudi's kingdom looked the other way. I wouldn't trust Saudi for anything. The U.S needs to keep a large naval presence in the Gulf ( sandbox). A battle group and fast attack subs armed to teeth with cruse missiles. Sorry Air Force the navy has the lead on this one. You guys can deploy B52s, B1, B2 and test out the new B3s for follow up strikes. These oil rich nations will be sent a bill for services provided, they can afford it just look at Dubai. However it comes down to the U.S securing its own oil, along with other countries in the Americas. Also strong leadership in the White House. Joey and the wombats took too long with the recent strikes in Syria and needs to move out in 2024. New management needs to run the place, here's a hint, Donald...

We the people of Iran will stand by the government of Iran in case of any attack on our country and we will teach a great lesson to the aggressors. The gulf that is in the south of Iran is called the Persian Gulf. It is better to pronounce the historical name of this gulf correctly. Persian gulf

Yeah, bink is more or less propaganda for USA and NATO. Constant 'morale improving' on Ukraine and 'dont worry our military is unstoppable just in case' reassurances to the public. And that's okay. Thinking a talking puppet is a good place to get information seems reasonable to some people.
Also there are many thing that he didn't mention about Iran's navy. Like iranian high speed upgraded crafts that they have thousands of them in their navy , include Abu mahdi and Soleimani boat and they carry different type of missiles. Using this kind of boat and misiles in large numbers againts their target is one of iranian technique in assymetric war. I agree with him about Iran obsolete aircrafts but also there will be many upcoming upgrad in Iran Air force like ordering su35 and Su75 and mil28 from Russia. Also I think there are many thing under Iranian military sleeve's that world didn't see them yet(except Shahid Drones tat used in Ukraine war and 15th Khordad SAM that defeat U.S MQ9 ) because Iran didn't includ in many conflict like U.S did.
U maybe 100% right but u have forgotten the main thing and that’s men on the ground.see US don’t have any man inside of Iran but Iran after war with Iraq they realized US will attack one day.iran claims they have 50000 well trained soldiers inside of all US city’s that if one day decides to bomb Iran then those will act inside US.but main question is what does Iran have that US probably know about it and didn’t attack Iran yet and Auto question Iran is the only country that captured all US drones in one piece and they have we designed it and used it against US!the main question is no one knows about Iran military equipment that Russia was amazed with Iran drones
Ah, but you're forgetting that the US has 100,000 secret operatives in Tehran alone -just waiting for the activation signal. My source on this is just as credible as yours.
This goes to show that you really don't understand Iran's 'combined arms-swarming capabilities'. Remember Aramco was a heavily defended site perhaps even more so than any military base yet it was wiped out back in 2019. So you don't have to take my word for it, and it was done by the Yemenis, not even Iran.
Hey Binkov, at 17:55 you noted that the Fakour 90 is derived from the AIM-54, but it actually comes from the HAWK missile system. Thanks for your content, I love your videos.
I feel like you completely forgot to talk about missile danger to ships, I don't think any ships could enter the Persian golf, especially if they have hypersonic missiles. So they would have to use the ground airfields, and therefor in susceptible to attacks on the airfields
Iran has underground bases were it has placed a lot of its equipments. Some of these bases would probably not be found or not sufficiently destroyed. With the time the US needs to prepare, and the fact that Iran might have parts of its nuclear facilities left, I think Iran would rush to get nuclear missiles which would basically make them immune. It is also such as waste of resources and human lifes on both sides when there probably can be a deal between the US and Iran.
Don't be misled by those ideas. Due to the Afghanistan war the US has developed armament and munitions that can penetrate deeply into the ground aka "bunker busters" and surface weapons like the MOAB which probably has no equal except nuclear weapons. Laboratories and weapons can be hidden but not indefinitely and the weapons exist that can touch them.
You underestimate americas intelligence. Russias war plans were not known except to the highest millitary leaders and the CIA director travelled to Kiev with them a full year before the invasion with the exact plans that russia used in February 2022. They have spies and bought officers everywhere. They might be hidden from the naked eye, but you have to staff them with personnel and establish a logistics chain that delivers weapon parts, water, food and all necessary items to the base. You can't really hide a huge installation. The more you try to hide it, the more ressources justifies a strike on it. The US is well aware of these an has been inventing a lot of solutions for the problem. I hope it does not come to war but if it happens.. it will be ugly for sure. Both sides will take losses but only one side will be bombed and take HUGE losses. And developing a couple nuclear weapons does not make you immune. The Soviets and americans avoided nuclear war because they had a LOT of warheads. If Iran only fields a couple, they can be shot down for sure and as soon as they launch theirs, that justifies the americans to use theirs. It is not really something either side wants to use, or should. They are an idle threat, a reassurance. But russia started this conflict and they did not get to use theirs and now Iran is starting a conflict. It will be the same. It is on Iran to pull back their proxies. They choose to deliver missiles and drones to them. They want this escalation.
The Obama administration made a deal with Iran together with its allies, but then Trump came and of course fucked everything up as always, which made Iran lose trust in diplomacy and hardliners become more powerful. To sum up, it would be very hard to get Iran to trust in a deal once again.
I am totally agree with you Iranian air force and Navy are absolutely obsolete but drones and missiles are new and Sams are also upgraded enough. There are some new movement and upgrading in Iran navy and air force technology for example by ordering mil28 and su35 and su 75 and manufacturing boat like Abu Mahdi and Soleimani and you didn't notice about Iranian allies like Irag, lebonan and Syria and also china and Russia and it would be many surprise during this hypothetically war for both side espcially for U.S because Iran was less included in the wars and conflict during the past decades and upcoming battlefield will show hundreds of abilities (more than what world see about just 2 of them like Shahid drones in Ukraine and 15th Khordad SAm to defeat Rq9 ... It wouldn't be easy to strike Iran and by passing time Iran is going to get better, stronger and more upgraded . 🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷

First off ,iran will target Saudi oilfields and all oilfields in the region ,the Arabs solely rely on their oil for their luxury ,the loss of it would mean extreme poverty ,secondly the Arabs know it,they will strongly be against US attacks ,thirdly ,iran is not a joke,they are much bigger complex and with tougher terrain than afghanistan with a well armed military ,iranian ballistic missile capabilities are not a joke
You failed to mention the reverse of this so-called air campaign, that is when Iranians are in the driver's seat, remember Iran is a very strong country.
what kind of army did Iraq have? one or two million? how many Arab countries attacked Israel? the question is not the quantity, but whether people are ready to die for their land. The people of the USSR were ready to die to defend the country, but the Germans did not want to die. if 10 Iraqians -> 1 American, then 1 million would be equal to 100,000 Americans. Do you think they wouldn't flinch?
@@user-kg8id What US did to Iraq was lie, murder and steal. U should actually check the real facts, not the CNN version of the war. Saddam was told by Bush to take Kuwait, then he was told to withdraw and there will be no attack. And once Saddam army was all packed in tracks and retreating back to Iraq, US aviation bombed them in pure masacre, nothing to do with war. Just like US bombed undefended demilitarised Drezden in 1945, wiping out the civilian population for no reason. Shall i mention Hiroshima? Once Saddam army war almost wiped out without a fight and totally demoralized by the slaughter... US moved in undefended Iraq and claimed great victory... with half a million soldiers armed with the latest tech, not 1 vs 10.
I think you greaty overestimate US capabilities in 2024. Everyone has taken lessons from the Russo-Ukrainian war. Before the war I'd probably bleieved you but now not anymire. Iran would be a US graveyard if Iran uses guerilla tactiques and drone saturation. It would be a bloody affair for both, you cannot win a war without boot on the ground firstly and secondly US equipment has become monstruously expensive compared to cheap Iranian Shahid and Zolfaghar ballistic missiles...
You think US has only expensive, unsustainable stuff? You think Military logistics planners and consultants might not have thought "hey, we need cheaper stuff also to avoid logistical hurdles"
Iran has very limited ability to counter attack. The Americans don’t have substantial ground forces in the gulf. So it would be a defensive war in the Persian side. American long range assets are plenty and they could just keep disrupting energy, leadership, and military facilities from afar.
@@jaywhoisit4863иран больше не страна третьего мира, африка поднимается, россия помогает этим странам - посмотрим как сша сможет воевать на нескольких фронтах.😅
Guerilla war doesn't mean anything without a US ground invasion, which would be unnecessary if the goal is to just limit Iran's ability to project power in the Middle East.
The US Will not attack Irán, at least for the moment. Similar comment is valid for Israel. The Main targets for Israel are the enemy centers close to Israel namely: Gaza, Lebanon and Syria. An attack to Irán would be of little effect because Irán and Israel are to far from each other. The Iranian attack of this weekend was not effective, it didn't produce damage on Israel.
'Steamrolled' initially, until Americans eventually give up and fuck off. The people in the Middle East, just like Vietnam, have nowhere else to go, but America insists on starting wars 9000+ miles from its borders
The issue that remains hidden from everyone is the real will and determination of the IRGC commanders to fight with any country, as the current commanders are very different from the commanders during the Iran-Iraq war. Today, most of the IRGC commanders are immersed in luxurious life, and their worldliness has destroyed their motivation to fight. And the signs they draw for countries are all just rhetoric and language, and regardless of the military power of the Islamic Republic, it must be said that these are not men of war.
Projecting a bit too much bud, this describes the aggressors(US, Zio regime) more than the attacked. In this scenario they are being invaded. Doesn't take much to get motivated to fight in that case. They've been militarily active since the US clumsily made a mess of the region post 9/11.

Too many conflicts, The US can't do all at the same time. The US has to maintain 2,000 tomahawk/ jassm missiles to use in any one conflict to have a decisive effect. Sure you can play the long game of air superiority/ sead, then pound with JDAM bombs, but that's timely and costly.
What confuses me is how a nation $34 trillion in debt is capable of increasing it's debt infinitely to no end and maintain a stable economy. There was talk of how the Houthi could bankrupt the US by forcing them to shoot down their cheap drones, but the US has no spending limit and can apparently reach $100 trillion without any effect.

Why can't Israel join in? Just fly from non-Israeli bases and don't wear colors. Do you think the Iranians will be able to deduce that from another half dozen squadrons in the area, a long way away from their sight? And also, if it was going that badly for Iran, and they had the threats that Israel has claimed for the last 20+ years, why would they not launch everything? Again, it would be in Israel's interest to step in.

us was stock in Afghanistan for 20 years and lost to taliban at the end and got humiliated . now you think iran will lose that easy.
The U.S. didn't lose in Afghanistan. It accomplished its goals of killing of Al-Queda and then decided an ongoing U.S. military presence was no longer in its interests. Not much advantage to trying to turn Afghanistan into a modern secular country. It's a money pit.
The U.S. doesn't need to occupy Iran or try to rebuild it. All it has to do is damage Iran's economy and infrastructure to the point that Iran can no longer arm and fund terrorist groups in Yemen, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Israel etc. and can't manufacture or launch missiles and can't maintain a nuclear weapons program.
There won't be a repeat of Iraq or Afghanistan because the U.S. doesn't need to put boots on the ground.
Iran can be left broken. It won't be a be able to create trouble for anyone else beyond its borders. Except maybe a refugee crisis, like in Syria. Since Syria, the Europeans have gotten pretty good at locking down their borders, so that refugee crisis will be Afghanistan and Pakistan and Iraq and Syria and Azerbaijan and Armenia and Turkey and Turkmenistan and Russia's problem.
If Turkey or Pakistan or India or the Saudis want to move in and take territory from what's left of Iran, or if the various ethnic groups within Iran breakaway or join neighboring countries and leave a small Persian rump state that's too weak to make trouble, no skin off the U.S.'s back. U.S. relations with India, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan and the Kurdish are a lot better than U.S. relations with the current Iranian government.
Is there some threat that the U.S. needs a strong Iranian regime to contain? The case for leaving Iraq in place was to contain Iran. What's the case, from the U.S. perspective, for leaving Iran in place? To contain Turkey or the Saudis? To keep the Russians out of central Asia?

Top Gun: Maverick was about Iran.
I think Iran's missile capabilties have been understated in this video. Iran's long range missiles serve as its primary deterrace strategy, but you barely mentioned them. The USA would struggle with an effective air campaign as all their airbases in the region would be destroyed. Many planes may be destroyed on the ground. That would leave the USA with its carrier groups, but aircraft carrier launched planes won't be able to "set Iran back over a decade" as Iran is simply too large for such a limited number of planes to be effective. Carrier groups can vulnerable to anti ship missiles. Russia would provide Iran with air defence systems and anti ship missiles. Ultimately I think the USA will avoid this war as it would only serve to weaken their position in the middle east. This is why Iran is able to get away with supplying Yemen with weapons to blockade the Red Sea. Ita also why Iran has also been able to launch missile attacks on US bases in other countries with no real retaliation from the US.
Yup, this dude really didn't do much research before posting this video
well, im not the only one coming back to this video after Iran's attack
They would most likely enjoy what real-time intelligence the Russian and perhaps the Chinese could supply them. After US and NATO actions in Ukraine, I don't think such a scenario is to far fetched. That might hamper US carrier fleet's ability to deploy, as it might empower Iran to attack it.
That would be quite limited though. Neither country has any significant signals or recon infrastructure in the region to provide intel
@@TWE_2000

The US regularly shoots down the missiles and drones Iran has given the Houthis. Them knowing where the carriers are doesn't matter.
Flattening Bandar Abbas naval base might be enough to deter Iran, but probably not. The problem is, once you start, it's going to be virtually impossible to descalate the conflict.
Iran will likely do its utmost to close the Straits of Hormuz and cripple oil and gas exports from the Middle East. In turn, the world's economy would be massively disrupted. Stock markets would plummet.
Is Iran worth the effort at this point in history. I suspect only as a last resort. To defeat Iran outright would need a ground invasion with +750,000 troops at a minimum. Iran is vast. Plus, no large field army wants to deal with a guerrilla war, which would inevitably follow. Iranians may not like their leaders very much, but they would hate foreign troops far more.
Ensuring China doesn't try anything in Taiwan and Russia doesn't win in Ukraine is of higher priority right now.

the problem with videos like this is that they always have a symmetric mindset .

This whole video is basically assuming that the USA uses a brain-damaged approach to combating Iran. Unfortunately, there is little evidence to say that wouldn't be the approach. The American approach to the Houthi issue is a counter argument suggesting that they would pick an even worse strategy.

Thinks that the only things that are important is as far as the eye can see and no further.
They protect their allies and therefor the region is more stable. Stable regions mean good economies and good economies make for excellent trading partners. If america were to stop all trade tommorrow they would lose most of their wealth and economy. They have an expeditionary millitary so they can project power everywhere and protect global trade. Because they profit from global free trade the most. Oh and their allies literally asked them for protection. It is a win- win for everyone except for aggressors near by. Even though your question was most likely nothing but bad faits, I gave you a good faith answer.
the US has historically understated its capabilities, whereas its enemies have historically overstated their own. It's not a question of whether the US can militarily achieve its objectives- it doesn't have a military budget larger than the next 10 countries combined for no reason- but rather, if the US can achieve the political victory at home. Will the US be able to maintain public support for the war? That's usually been the reason for its lost wars. Lack of political will to do what needs to be done in order to win.

You have missed the most important factors here. A sinking Iran would drown the whole world alongside. Iran's retaliation will not be limited to just attacking US bases and assets. The entire economy and oil industries of the region will collapse during such a war. In just one single attack, Saudi Arabia lost 50% of its oil production capacity overnight. This will happen again on a scale beyond imagination. The Strait of Hormuz will be shut down for months to come, resulting in catastrophic damage to the global economy. Iran's proxies will be engaged in full force, and things will quickly spiral out of control for the US, now forced to engage on multiple fronts. Additionally, Russia and China would try to capitalize on the situation.
Furthermore, as you have noted, this kind of campaign would require a long time to prepare logistics in order to set things in motion. This will not go unnoticed by Iran's intelligence agencies. Iran would go nuclear before the US is even ready to fire its first shots.
That is why we have never seen and will never see such a military action against Iran actually materialize beyond words and fantasies.

Assuming that the Arabs would join in by providing bases is a bit risky. Iran wouldn't be targeting their bases, they would target the oil infrastructure and attempt to stop shipping through the Persian gulf. Oil prices would jump and Russia would be benefiting. It's more realistic to assume an attack using only carriers, which is much less powerful and would take longer. It would be crazy for the Saudi monarchy to give Iran an excuse to rain a thousand missiles on their oil fields
exactly, this video is probably accurate if we were in 2006 not in 2024, A LOT have changed since then, thinking that saudi arabia is still hostile to iran and will let US use its bases is just like thinking US can strike deep into chine from india's territory, its so out of touch and borderline delusional. countries like saudi arabia and UAE are not usa puppets anymore they only follow their interests which is money, that's why they are not hostile to russia even after a lot of western pressure.
And still even then no one can guarantee that for example the yamanis won't attack the oil infrastructure. This video is quite limited to only military aspects. The reality is that such an attack is a suicide for any politician and only benefits Russia and China in the long term.
So many things are wrong with this report, let point out few most important ones that this report conveniently failed to mention and we all know why.
When in 2012 Foreign Policy reported that Israel my use Sitalchay Military Airbase in Azerbaijan to attack nuclear program sites in Iran back then Iranians made it very clear to Azerbaijan and every Iranian neighbor using country’s territory or its airspace is a direct and open declaration of war against Iran and Iran will strike back immediately at the decision making centers and if necessary use ground troops.
Iranian neighbors especially Gulf States will never allow US or any other power to use their territory or airspace to strike Iran if there is no direct and serious threat to them and Iran is not threatening to invade anyone but if attacked and Iran decided to use ground troops it will be hell for everybody. If there is a military action vs Iran all US military bases in the Middle East will be of no use to the US, it will be US alone, even Israel may not join the fight, The Houthis are best example there will be no coalition of 30 like vs Iraq 1991-2003, as soon as Houthis said they would strike back coalition of 12 falls apart overnight in Dec 2023
Iran’s capability of a precision strikes at 1000+KM is real and their stockpiles of cruise missiles and long range drones are not in thousands as Binkov claims but in tens of thousands and that’s what makes Iran almost impossible to attack and not even mentioning Iran's supported groups in Yemen, Lebanon, Iraq and Syria.
Source: dude trust me bro
@@looinrims I’m not your fckng history teacher, if you wanna know things, just google it, its all out there
And Iran would just sit back & do nothing, not attack the neighbours & destroy their infrastructure, not close the Persian Gulf & collapse the world economy, not get their proxies to attack American & Israeli targets.
And what would happen if China decides to repatriate Taiwan, and North Korea repatriates South Korea at the same time?
It's very easy to start a war, but how it develops, where it goes & how it ends is another matter.
Not completely on topic, but I’m fairly certain North Korea attacking South Korea would go a lot like Hamas attacking Israel last year. Whatever pain North Korea manages to inflict on its neighbors in the first hours would almost immediately be met with an overwhelming military retaliation that has a lot of potential to be a PR disaster for the heavily well equipped South Koreans who definitely

i think you are severely underestimating iranian IRBM capabilities when they can achieve 10m CEP at 1200 km
I don't believe the US would be interested in any form of regime change in Iran, but as history shows in Nimble Archer 1987 and Praying Mantis 1988, there are very effective alternatives available without the expenditure of thousands of bombs and missiles. Adding modern US capabilities to an Archer and Mantis framework would be an attractive solution. An operation in the vein of Archer and Mantis, with the addition of targeting all 10 Iran operated imaging and communications satellites, and an all out cyber attack on Iranian finance management assets, would likely leave Iran too occupied with recovery for a significant time. I would be very surprised if this isn't the way the next US administration will choose to move forward.
Did you mean Israel
There aren’t any anti-satellite options currently available that are both permanent and won’t create massive debris fields that will both cause a major international incident and endanger US and allied nations’ space assets.
@@jonathanpfeffer3716 The SM 3 is capable of anti satellite missions, apart from what is available but secret. The risk of any debris interfering with other near earth objects is miniscule, and in the unlikely event it does happen, the US is more than capable of providing replacement and compensation. Small price to pay to avoid another all out war in the middle east.
@@PersonalityMalfunction It’s not a low chance at all. Existing ASAT tests have already had issues with that, and those were all exclusively LEO sats that were actively in the process of deorbiting. It is absolutely impossible to predict trajectories of debris fields and a hit to kill warhead creates, to use a scientific term, a f ton of debris. Even very small quantities of sats being affected would create massive costs, in the billions at the minimum. That’s not a small price to pay by any means. It also carries massive non-financial costs. The US has been an outspoken voice condemning ASAT testing for the above reasons and contradicting ourselves by executing such a relatively massive ASAT attack would deal a big blow to our credibility. And if it hit any of our allies sats which would be statistically very likely given most sats in orbit are either American or allied, then dear god that is a nightmare of a diplomatic incident. Again, there’s no way to mitigate this, which is why the USAF has been investing so much into non-kinetic ASAT options.
The SM-3 also only has speculated capability to intercept LEO sats, leaving multiple Iranian sats outside of reach. The same applies to the air launched derivative.
There’s much better options. Iranian sats aren’t even particularly impactful to their military capabilities. They’re dated to say the least.
Wow to think we’d get to test our 6th generation bomber so quickly truly Iran is being super considerate and offering their country up as the payload target and even offering to try to track the bomber. Such a nice country I hope they enjoy their new parking lots

Yeah, B-21 is already flying, and there's also that stealth drone swarm out of Tonopah. Plus who knows what else we don't know about. If the US were to go to war with Iran, Iran is a big enough of a threat that it would justify bringing out the black projects.
This video also ignores cyberwarfare, special forces and CIA spooks starting a civil war, and every other dirty trick in the book. The US would not fight fair against a country like Iran.
Iran is a very strong country, you forgot to mention that Iran can hit back also.

Strikes with cruise missiles and other stand off missiles systems targeting Iranian nuclear plants(suspected of enriching programs), oil production, as well as Iran's navy and air force would just take a few days and make the point. The US doesnt have to go anywhere near Iran to spank them, but Iran has little to hit back at(some bases in the middle east would get hit, but few casualties).
To bad America and the west are so concerned about innocent civilian casualties(not sure there is such a thing in Islam). Plus America always wants to make rules which always benefit our enemies and do nothing to avoid accusations of war crimes(if you are going to get blamed anyways. why not? War is meant to be vile).
America Killed 2m Civilians in Iraq and 1m Civilians in Syria with supplying ISIS

Although I do not think that the US will want to get involved in a war directly with Iran at this point in time, I would like to make some points: 1) The idea of Qatar being 'politically shaky' and friendly with Iran is not really true. Qatar has a most devious policy and has been a leading power in attacking Iran's influence around the region. Iran and Qatar share an oilfield so they have to get on, but this is just superficial. The Wahabist Qataris hate all Shias as intolerable heretics, and want them exterminated, which is why Qatar has been the leading funder or radical armed Sunni groups. In Syria it was actually Qatar that funded most of the radical Sunni armed groups trying to overthrow Assad (as in Idlib). Qatar and CENTCOM have long co-ordinated their activities in places like Syria and Libya. In Libya Qatar again played the leading role in supplying and training anti-Qaddafi armed groups. Note that immediately before this, Qatar posed as friendly to Qaddafi. They get close to those they wish to stab in the back. That a lot of these facts have been deliberately kept out of public view is a testament to how close the west and Qatar are. No one is allowed to criticise Qatar, and it has purchased influence only rivalling that of Israel, in the west. The fact that Qatar owns Hamas and was almost certainly the main funder and supplier of the Hamas attack on Israel, has also been deliberately kept out of public view, with Doha, Washington and London all working hard to pretend Iran was behind it. 2) If you are considering bases which could be used against Iran by the US you should include Turkey in particular, and some parts of Europe which lie not so far from Iran. (Turkey and Qatar worked together against Iran inside Syria, and have a deep alliance) We should also remember that long range cruise missiles (such a Tomahawks), and other forms of missiles would play a large role in any attack on Iran. Many of these can be launched from naval units at sea, which can be moved around a lot, and from some standoff distance.

UPDATE: in the last few months, analysts have stated that Russia sent S 500 SAMS which are designed to hit F-22 and F-35 stealth fighters as well as hypersonic missiles. Definitely a game changer in this fight
Wrong, the S 500 cannot even deal with a 40 year old Patriot system. We have stuff that makes the Patriot system look like a catapult. As for their "hypersonic missiles", they have been proven to be fake.

Would Saudi allow the USA to use bases in Saudi's land to launch attacks on Iran? Considering Saudi and Iran had just buried the hatchet, and reconnected diplomacy with each other. The fact that USA sovereignty has not been attacked could be considered that Saudi has no obligation to allow their bases to be used for launching a military attack on Iran, as a USA ally.
Agreed but here's some history. After the Gulf War in 90-91, we had a large civilian amount of government contractors and military personell stationed in Saudi. In 96 the contractors and military personnel we're attacked at the Colbert Towers and many people we're killed. It was later learned Bin Laden and his Al Qaeda fools attacked the complex, that led up to the USS Cole bombings and 911. As we know Bin Laden was a Saudi prince, and thought the evil American infidels were invaders, and were on sacred ground. After that attack the Clinton administration didnt do a danm thing and Saudi's kingdom looked the other way. I wouldn't trust Saudi for anything. The U.S needs to keep a large naval presence in the Gulf ( sandbox). A battle group and fast attack subs armed to teeth with cruse missiles. Sorry Air Force the navy has the lead on this one. You guys can deploy B52s, B1, B2 and test out the new B3s for follow up strikes. These oil rich nations will be sent a bill for services provided, they can afford it just look at Dubai. However it comes down to the U.S securing its own oil, along with other countries in the Americas. Also strong leadership in the White House. Joey and the wombats took too long with the recent strikes in Syria and needs to move out in 2024. New management needs to run the place, here's a hint, Donald...

Ah, but you're forgetting that the US has 100,000 secret operatives in Tehran alone -just waiting for the activation signal. My source on this is just as credible as yours.

This goes to show that you really don't understand Iran's 'combined arms-swarming capabilities'. Remember Aramco was a heavily defended site perhaps even more so than any military base yet it was wiped out back in 2019. So you don't have to take my word for it, and it was done by the Yemenis, not even Iran.
Hey Binkov, at 17:55 you noted that the Fakour 90 is derived from the AIM-54, but it actually comes from the HAWK missile system.
Thanks for your content, I love your videos.
I feel like you completely forgot to talk about missile danger to ships, I don't think any ships could enter the Persian golf, especially if they have hypersonic missiles. So they would have to use the ground airfields, and therefor in susceptible to attacks on the airfields
Hypersonic missiles aren’t what you think. They won’t hit the boats
Iran has underground bases were it has placed a lot of its equipments. Some of these bases would probably not be found or not sufficiently destroyed. With the time the US needs to prepare, and the fact that Iran might have parts of its nuclear facilities left, I think Iran would rush to get nuclear missiles which would basically make them immune.
It is also such as waste of resources and human lifes on both sides when there probably can be a deal between the US and Iran.
Don't be misled by those ideas. Due to the Afghanistan war the US has developed armament and munitions that can penetrate deeply into the ground aka "bunker busters" and surface weapons like the MOAB which probably has no equal except nuclear weapons. Laboratories and weapons can be hidden but not indefinitely and the weapons exist that can touch them.
You underestimate americas intelligence. Russias war plans were not known except to the highest millitary leaders and the CIA director travelled to Kiev with them a full year before the invasion with the exact plans that russia used in February 2022. They have spies and bought officers everywhere. They might be hidden from the naked eye, but you have to staff them with personnel and establish a logistics chain that delivers weapon parts, water, food and all necessary items to the base. You can't really hide a huge installation. The more you try to hide it, the more ressources justifies a strike on it. The US is well aware of these an has been inventing a lot of solutions for the problem. I hope it does not come to war but if it happens.. it will be ugly for sure. Both sides will take losses but only one side will be bombed and take HUGE losses. And developing a couple nuclear weapons does not make you immune. The Soviets and americans avoided nuclear war because they had a LOT of warheads. If Iran only fields a couple, they can be shot down for sure and as soon as they launch theirs, that justifies the americans to use theirs. It is not really something either side wants to use, or should. They are an idle threat, a reassurance. But russia started this conflict and they did not get to use theirs and now Iran is starting a conflict. It will be the same. It is on Iran to pull back their proxies. They choose to deliver missiles and drones to them. They want this escalation.
The Obama administration made a deal with Iran together with its allies, but then Trump came and of course fucked everything up as always, which made Iran lose trust in diplomacy and hardliners become more powerful. To sum up, it would be very hard to get Iran to trust in a deal once again.
We’re already there. Iran has been rushing to get nukes for the last 4 years.. if it was easy they already would have it.
I am totally agree with you
Iranian air force and Navy are absolutely obsolete but drones and missiles are new and Sams are also upgraded enough. There are some new movement and upgrading in Iran navy and air force technology for example by ordering mil28 and su35 and su 75 and manufacturing boat like Abu Mahdi and Soleimani and you didn't notice about Iranian allies like Irag, lebonan and Syria and also china and Russia and it would be many surprise during this hypothetically war for both side espcially for U.S because Iran was less included in the wars and conflict during the past decades and upcoming battlefield will show hundreds of abilities (more than what world see about just 2 of them like Shahid drones in Ukraine and 15th Khordad SAm to defeat Rq9 ... It wouldn't be easy to strike Iran and by passing time Iran is going to get better, stronger and more upgraded . 🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷

It would be a bloody affair for both, you cannot win a war without boot on the ground firstly and secondly US equipment has become monstruously expensive compared to cheap Iranian Shahid and Zolfaghar ballistic missiles...
You think US has only expensive, unsustainable stuff? You think Military logistics planners and consultants might not have thought "hey, we need cheaper stuff also to avoid logistical hurdles"
Iran has very limited ability to counter attack. The Americans don’t have substantial ground forces in the gulf. So it would be a defensive war in the Persian side. American long range assets are plenty and they could just keep disrupting energy, leadership, and military facilities from afar.

Guerilla war doesn't mean anything without a US ground invasion, which would be unnecessary if the goal is to just limit Iran's ability to project power in the Middle East.
The US Will not attack Irán, at least for the moment. Similar comment is valid for Israel. The Main targets for Israel are the enemy centers close to Israel namely: Gaza, Lebanon and Syria. An attack to Irán would be of little effect because Irán and Israel are to far from each other. The Iranian attack of this weekend was not effective, it didn't produce damage on Israel.

The issue that remains hidden from everyone is the real will and determination of the IRGC commanders to fight with any country, as the current commanders are very different from the commanders during the Iran-Iraq war. Today, most of the IRGC commanders are immersed in luxurious life, and their worldliness has destroyed their motivation to fight. And the signs they draw for countries are all just rhetoric and language, and regardless of the military power of the Islamic Republic, it must be said that these are not men of war.
Projecting a bit too much bud, this describes the aggressors(US, Zio regime) more than the attacked. In this scenario they are being invaded. Doesn't take much to get motivated to fight in that case. They've been militarily active since the US clumsily made a mess of the region post 9/11.

Dont loan money to someone who controls the value of said money.
the US, just like every other country is paying of their dept constantly. Which makes them reliable and a more appealing country to make loans to.
It's called Debt to GDP ratio, the debt matters as much as the ability to pay it off.
@@deriznohappehquitewouldnt you want to loan to someone like that? and btw, the us dosent control the value of the dollar.
too big to fail
Yes? And why didn't you talk about Iran's options against the strategically important targets?
