How long can Iran last in all out war with the US when they are under severe US sanctions already. With this Trump threat I see Iran calming down and let the whole thing fizzle out while hoping Trump will not be reelected and a more conciliatory democratic President comes to the white house.

Iran should better thread with caution. Trump is not Obama o. Someone who promised to build a wall around Mexican border and also cut China to size. as stupid as those campaign promises sounded back then, Trump has already achieved them. He is no politician, he comes from a successful business background. Talk and do. Iran has emotionally talked itself into trouble. Saudi Arabia won't mind attacking US facility codedely and tag it on Iran as any attack on US in the middle East would be deemed an Iranian attack. The mumu egoistic ayetollah won't even want to deny it. Isreal is standing by the corner waiting for the slightest reason to go all out against iran. It's a terrible situation for Iran, they were over pampered by the Obama administration. When Sadam Hussain was alive who know Iran. Democrats made Iran feel like a world power by allowing them access to their frozen funds in exchange for halting nuclear advancement. Iran has been using those funds to fund terrorist organizations like Hezbollah and hamas and fight proxy wars against the US and Isreal. Thank God Trump has shredded d deal and impose heavy sanctions. Let's see where Iran will get d funds to prosecute a full scale war.

And Iranians made mentioned of Tel Aviv as a potential target. I think they have forgotten that those Israelis are more aggressive militarily that US....Israel was born in war and surviving with war.

I m sure if Tel Aviv is hit, IDF will take out first nearly all there Nuclear Facilities and Missile Batteries. Former Israeli Defence Minister once said "If it rains in Tel Aviv, It will pour in Tehran"....

"Operation House of Cards" in May, 2018 is still funny and interesting to me till date....how Israelis lured Iranians out in Syrian and in one sweep took out almost all their arsenal.

please people.... read more about the operation

Their fear is not about Iran but about the Russians, Will they keep mute, allow Americans destroy Iran and build a military empire next to them? That's the real question. If Russia joins, things escalate quickly and you don't know how it is going to end. You might say Russian won't want to, but all you need to do is look at what they already did in Syria, they directly intervened, sending Russian soldiers and fighters into the war.
In the 50s, it was the same way the Chinese directly intervened to stop America building a military empire close to their boarder during the Korean war. The US commander in the Korea then got so upset, he sought his presidents permission to use the nuke, but the fear of what could come afterward prevailed and the president use diplomacy. Real problem now is that Trump is a dsftt war monger, he can do something dolly and set the world ablaze. The entire world is currently worried and pray the worst doesn't happen.
World politics is about alliances. WW1 started with the killing of one man. History has a nasty way of repeating itself.

Thanks my broda. We have zero foreign policy experience to make useful points. Ordinary street armed robbery, all of us go piss for pant. Even house robbery sef. Na war we just dey talk like Iran no get any neighbors and allies. It's not as simple as that. This is not about Iran. What did they even do? They have been calling them bad names for the past 3 years. Now u see the outcome. Can any of the people defending this give one good reason why Iran is being attacked? Just one.

Comments I found on this platform makes me wonder the kind of people we have in our society, majority of them taking side doesn't even know what the situation is all about, they're just taking sides based on sentiment.

They don't know what war means, I can't believe people are saying they're waiting for a certain country to be hit hard and cry, these people will go to the house of God whichever they believed in and pray to their lord.

However, they're e-devil and heartless with Black soul.

I pray for peace all around the world.

I thought America was disparaging Nigeria for not obeying laws; which law of the UN is Ameriaca obeying in killing someone so brazenly in another sovereign nation's land against their national laws and against international laws. People abusing Buhari for holding El Zakzaky against the laws are now hailing USA for disobeying laws. Its so crazy.

This is highly unfair n unjustified drumming of War all because Trump want to win second time n want to stabilize their unholistic economy.

Hopefully this threat of war between the USA and Iran will fizzle out. There is no point taking sides as all parties in it will be affected and it will also affect proxies in the middle east, Asia, Europe and America.

Truthfully the American foreign policy with seems to be too meddlesome. If Saddam Hussein and Muammar Ghaddafi were left alone the world would not be seeing the kind of crisis facing the middle east and parts of Africa today.
The spill over effect of the American destruction of the Ghaddafi regime is what we even feel now in Nigeria with ISWAP.

We also hope that this attack will not fast track the impeachment of Donald Trump with the House of reps claiming that he did not see authorization to launch that attack.


1. It was France and Britain that cajoled Obama to join them to oust Gadaffi. You have to mention France the chief architect. The only contribution America did was, "send us a coordinate" we will Tomahawk it.

2. Donald Trump does not need authorization to launch attacks In Iraq. He was compelled to seek authorization to attack Iran not Iranians in Iraq.

The US killed scores of Russians mercenaries in a failed attack 2 years ago in Syria that no one talked about.

The truth of the matter is that America cannot afford another full blown war worst off against a dogged Iran. However you might want to look at it, America will find it very tough to win the war because her bases around the middle east will be subject to a barrage of long range ballistic missiles. Iran will suffer more but she stands to lose nothing. China and Russia will back the Iranians with weapons just so the war drags on to a point where it takes a toll on the US economy thereby possibly giving birth to a new world power, China...It's not just war, there's an economic undertone to it and the US know better than anyone that they can't afford to prosecute another war, not at this point where their economy is recovering...
