|
Date: June 17th, 2025 12:17 AM Author: big cyan school I'm going on the record to say No. Trump went ALL IN on denouncing the Iraq invasion on a televised live debate where the entire old guard of the GOP was brought to heels on their "mistake", his words, in Iraq. He is hugely invested in No More Wars and boots on the ground is WAY different from dropping bombs. It also has the unique quality of being an obviously and totally unwinnable move. Iranians are nothing if not martial, highly intelligent and cohesive. They will make our stay there more regrettable than the US invasion of Vietnam, the Soviet invasion of Afg and the Israeli invasion of Gaza all combined. It's not happening EVER. |
|
Date: June 17th, 2025 1:23 AM Author: excitant snowy mood Let's hope you're right
What if we pulled a Desert Storm style invasion just to depose the regime then leave? Following this the Israelis prob can pull the strings like in post-Assad Syria as to whose in charge
That would probably be the best move if we *had* to invade right. I'm sure occupation would be a disaster but it seems like it'd be easy for us to take down their conventional military and overthrow the current rulers |
|
Date: June 17th, 2025 1:28 AM Author: big cyan school They have counter-invasion plans, and have been refining them for a quarter century. It would look like a 21st century Market Garden. |
|
Date: June 17th, 2025 1:33 AM Author: excitant snowy mood Israel is pushing their shit in within the air, maintaining total aerial dominance. The IDF has a fraction of our capabilities.
Bombing them continuously and striking them on land surgically could probably overthrow the regime like Syria or Libya. I dont understand how they could counter that |
|
Date: June 17th, 2025 1:34 AM Author: big cyan school It would be more like bombing Gaza. How has thay worked for Israel? The air dominance thing appears to be untrue or irrelevant. The missile silos are apparently well protected because they're still firing. |
|
Date: June 17th, 2025 1:37 AM Author: excitant snowy mood I think Gaza is working out well for them. They're basically genociding the Palestinians there and the world is letting them do so
At a minimum the US will bend over backwards to sustain Israeli air defenses. If its just an aerial campaign, I think Israel wins. In an industrial war of attrition of US/Israel/Europe vs Iran I think the former wins |
|
Date: June 17th, 2025 1:49 AM Author: big cyan school They're not succeeding in the genocide, though. The Palestinians are some tough motherfuckers evidently. I think the world underestimated them. We don't really know what's happening there militarily, I'll also add. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5739033&forum_id=2],#49023205) |
|
Date: June 17th, 2025 4:32 AM Author: Rambunctious cruise ship hissy fit To be fair,
1. They're not succeeding in any truly meaningful way. Do you really think in 5 years we'll all be like "Wait whats a 'Palestinian'" because they'll all be dead? If the answer to that is no, it sounds like this genocide is actually merely a half-measure... and how do those usually work out in the long run?
2. Having said that, I'll give them this -- they are bombing the shit out of a bunch of kids. So, uh, congrats guys! Big win! On a surely unrelated note, Israel has done more damage to its international standing in the last year than any other country I can think of at any point in my lifetime, and it's not even close. "Who cares lol fuck the rest of the world" I hear you say -- sounds great, I just hope Israel is prepared to continue to flourish in a world where they are a pariah state in 20 years *and* that includes a near-total collapse of active financial and military support from the US (when you finish laughing at that "retarded" prediction, feel free to go look up mainstream public opinion polling re Israel's popularity for pretty much all Americans across the political aisle and regardless of race, religion, or gender under the age of 40 and recall that since we are a democratic republic, it's pretty hard for even the most bought-and-paid-for politicians to successfully push incredibly unpopular shit on the public in the long run... a lesson that the Democrats are currently in the process of being forced to learn the hard way with all of their retarded trans bullshit, incidentally... turns out that you don't win many national elections when you stake out a position on the "20" side of an 80/20 issue!).
3. You're literally a Jewish Zionist faggot, and you're going to find yourself heading feet first into a giant fiery oven while screaming your lungs out in terror someday, kike. Mark that. |

CR, I certainly have to admit that Israel is still absolutely crushing it when it comes to enjoying insane support on all levels -- financial, military, UN veto power, pretty much whatever they want -- from the extremely powerful US Federal Government in 2025.
Do you think that will still be the case in 2045? How about 2065? |

Date: June 17th, 2025 1:24 AM Author: jet-lagged rebellious ticket booth regret Continue bombing the Iranian military, insert special forces near Fordow. Bring in explosives over the course of weeks to demolish it from inside. Drones and planes dropping bombs prevent any real interference. Something like that. No one is stupid enough to fight an actual ground war there. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5739033&forum_id=2],#49023165) |
|
Date: June 17th, 2025 1:31 AM Author: big cyan school Look at the tunnel infrastructure Hamas has. It has kept Israel at bay for 2 years- against a less equipped, less trained, and now headless paramilitary force, than what we would see in Iran. What do you think the Iranians have prepared?⁹ This is not going to happen. There would be losses in the thousands in the first week. |
|
Date: June 17th, 2025 1:40 AM Author: excitant snowy mood I mean does Israel care if XX,XXX American goys die in an invasion of Iran? They don't. In fact the more that die, the more we'll push harder to punish the Iranians body count style like in 'Nam
That said, it's probably twilight on our ability to even consider a land invasion and I think the Israelis know this. They want us to move in despite it being disastrous for us knowing that if we KO Iran, despite its costs, that it's still a net positive fo them |
|
Date: June 17th, 2025 1:43 AM Author: big cyan school Israel might want it but Trump can't stomach it and he won't. Look, these are just my prognosticatuons. What do I know. I also think God is sick and tired of the "chosen". |

CR.
Say what you want about Blondalf Drumpfth, but I defy any of the bloodthirsty and insane Zionist kikes ITT to actually serve up solid evidence (in the form of citations to his past documented behavior) which strongly support the proposition that he would put American boots on the ground in Iran.
I'll wait to hear the counterargument. |
|
Date: June 17th, 2025 1:41 AM Author: jet-lagged rebellious ticket booth regret This doesn’t seem similar to Gaza at all. They wouldn’t be looking to insert troops into a dense urban jungle where enemies can pop out anywhere. They would be looking to create an aerial kill zone around a lone facility while they go to work. I am not sure this would work but there are strong reasons now to doubt Iranian military competency and how effectively they would respond to it. This is especially true if the current bombing campaign continues to erode their military and civil order. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5739033&forum_id=2],#49023191) |
|
Date: June 17th, 2025 1:45 AM Author: big cyan school The aerial kill zone would be a concrete jungle, wouldn't it? IAF supports their infantry at least as competently as whatever force the US could bring to Iran, and, again, IDF hasn't touched the tunnels. I think your plan sounds better on paper than would play out in reality. |
|
Date: June 17th, 2025 2:14 AM Author: jet-lagged rebellious ticket booth regret Can they though? Units that transport drones are getting destroyed. I would expect the US and Israel to be able to put very substantial air assets around the facility, with better sensors and more automation. I am also somewhat skeptical there will be enough Iranian morale to push through relentless air attacks from drones and fighter aircraft to try to dislodge them.

|

|
Date: June 17th, 2025 1:46 AM Author: excitant snowy mood I think its even questionable whether the Iranians can withstand a sustained bombing campaign against their infrastructure. If the US joins in with a massive, extended air campaign against civilian infrastructure as well as military; along with a few surgical ground attacks, it might be enough for Iran to cry Uncle.
It took far less to take down Syria and Libya. Though Iran is bigger, the war modeling right now is likely thinking about implementing those strategies on a bigger scale |
|
Date: June 17th, 2025 1:55 AM Author: jet-lagged rebellious ticket booth regret Yeah, a very large percentage of their GDP is made up of things that burn well. Oil/gas/petrochemicals are sitting ducks for JDAMs. And then blow up the port infrastructure and electrical generation and the economy will collapse. They might hold on but this is less risky for Israel and the US than trying to take Fordow. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5739033&forum_id=2],#49023211) |

Trump is COMPLETELY anti-war and will twist himself into a pretzel just to avoid being responsible for putting boots on any foreign soil.
ALSO, America would get its shit WRECKED in a land invasion of Iran. It is a very mountainous country with a population of 60 million.

@realDonaldTrump
Iran has officially responded to our Obliteration of their Nuclear Facilities with a very weak response, which we expected, and have very effectively countered. There have been 14 missiles fired — 13 were knocked down, and 1 was “set free,” because it was headed in a nonthreatening direction. I am pleased to report that NO Americans were harmed, and hardly any damage was done. Most importantly, they’ve gotten it all out of their “system,” and there will, hopefully, be no further HATE. I want to thank Iran for giving us early notice, which made it possible for no lives to be lost, and nobody to be injured. Perhaps Iran can now proceed to Peace and Harmony in the Region, and I will enthusiastically encourage Israel to do the same. Thank you for your attention to this matter!
