Floky215:
In your mind...you think the us marines or american soldiers are nigerian army right...?

You would, see, witness and understand why usa has the highest defense budget in world in the coming days ..

You are very funny, so because they are US marines, they cannot die. Having a high defense budget doesnt mean you can have a clear victory in war. A high defense budget without understanding the art of war is a futility. Bodies of dead US marines have dragged on the streets of Mogadishu in the early 1990's during the Somalian conflict. US black Hawk helicopters were downed by Islamic militants. So dont think American troops are immortal or invincible. Thinking like that is being a mental slave .

ChiefOloye:
At least, more than 2,000 of the troops will not return to base alive, while those who will manage to get back will suffer severe PTSD. If you think I'm not saying the truth, ask after some of the servicemen George Bush sent to Iraq and Afghanistan 25 years ago.

So it is the Iranian army will be alive and not have what is worse than PTSD? You must be joking.
This is war and you are already counting American losses grin

despite the odds clearly not in favour of Iran.
Very funny!

5k soldiers means that Iran is really big and dangerous and trump is acting out of fear and desperation.

They would have sent 5 member special force just as they do in Hollywood.

America can't just send their troop for such dangerous mission withiout equipped them with lastest technology the world might have never seen. Besides, those 5000 troops must be their immensely experienced Naval officers.

Trust me, they will successfully open the straits except walls has been built inside the water rout to prevent smooth ships movements.

So, you think and believe that sending 5k soldiers/naval officers to fight over 300k soldiers and 18500 naval officers in their land is a wise decision right for the US/Trump? Abeg think deeply.

The report states the trip from Taiwan to the Staights will take two weeks. A whole lot can happen in half a month. Also US Marines are land forces not Naval power. Secretary Hegseth seems clueless as a strategic leader.

This war is taking another angle that wasn't in the plan, just like Russia-Ukraine war.

If China is helping Iran, then U.S is in big trouble.

If this news is true then President Donald Trump is the second best gift the God of heaven has given mankind after Jesus Christ.
I am so happy with this news.
Iran's excesses has been finally checked.
Shipping activities in the Strait of Hormuz can now resume.
Iran has no sole power over that territory d

I have always said that the average black man is obsessed with a white saviour from his delusion and ignorance. In Donald Trump the foolish Black man found another saviour.

Basicend:
US must change their approach b4 fighting another serious war. Conventional war pattern has changed.

They must quickly focus on producing mass cheap war weapons. Like cheap drones and interceptors, more advanced laser detectors, more ICBM and hypersonic missiles.

The Chinese, Iranian, Russians etc have built many cheaper and effective weapons.

If this war stretches to 3 more weeks or more, they will be waisting more than $3 trillion to sustain it.

Their 3 aircraft carriers in the sea can be destroyed in this war if care is not taken. They are just lucky that swarm drones and very fast Chinese anti-ship missiles have not yet been launched at them.

Once strategic aim has been achieved, Trump needs to pull out of the war otherwise things will become more uncontrollable.

This is the only sensible comment I see on this thread.

I am sure US is developing robotic land troops underground and secretly because China is already doing it and there is no way America will fold its hands.

Russia doesn't have such capability that's why it's relying heavily on African and Asian countries for hired mercenaries to fight Ukraine.

It's only China that currently have robotic soldiers, US also have it but cant deploy it to Iran because Iran is a small fly to do that, besides America is not fighting Iran as a country, they are only Policing the Islamic Regime of Iran that swore that the world will never have peace and that Israel must be destroyed. If US decides to fight Iran, they wouldn't dare carry out that Quds kiniko yesterday because bombs will level half of Iran.

I agree with you that US need to develop more cheaper ballistic missiles, drones, air defense systems and robot soldiers to fight small wars like this instead of exposing American troops to life threatening faceoffs with senseless countries like Iran.

Iran only concentrated on producing thousands of cheap drones and ballistic missiles, but it can't be sustained if the war lingers

Don’t compare Americans with people who are not afraid to die oooo. Americans love life and enjoy. If 500 soldiers die, people go riot for America especially when they feel the war no concern them in the first place

My question is by the time America lost 2000 troops how many Iranians would have gone.
