Sure.... That's why it's called War

US better be prepared, because Iran has nothing else to lose.

Oksman:
Incomplete analysis. America knows Iran' s contingency arrangement and hence may have another approach to it.

And you feel US has the monopoly of Intelligence? Iran will most definitely opt for an asymmetric warfare against the US. Your US better be prepared on all grounds.

Akuko N'kasobi..... One thing is certain for Iranians, it will surely end in tears

And more, not less, American lives will be lost.

hisgrace090:
The poster are you for or against Iran?

You may think you love Iran not knowing that you're only hutting them.

They say Iran is sponsoring global terrorism, and that Qassem Soleimani was planning and is responsible for many attacks and lose of lives. Have they told you the number of civilian casualties they've caused in the course of their failed wars and invasion of other countries?

US should stop bullying other nations. If they don't, I'm sure you know what happens to bullies; they get ganged-up against and beaten.

A US-born prolific author and mobile pundit, Tomi Ahonen, has given reasons why it would be impossible for the United States to defeat Iran if war breaks out among the two nations. He said America will regret and may never win the war, which has been predicted to be deadliest if it happens. Ahonen’s position follows the death of Iran’s most powerful military commander, General Qasem Soleimani.

“The USA CANNOT DEFEAT an enemy like Iran, this strong, this big, this competent, this HEAVILY ARMED with ADVANCED weapons who is UNIFIED & experienced,” the pundit concluded.

“Since WW2, USA has been involved in ‘big’ wars with 4 nations (excluding the smaller conflicts like Bosnia, Somalia or Syria). Korean war (fought to a draw), Vietnam war (the USA lost), Afghanistan war (longest war, still ongoing, can’t be won) and Iraq (2 times).

“So let’s start Iran with geography. Iran is a HUGE country. It is as big as North Korea… plus North Vietnam…. plus Afghanistan… and Iraq – COMBINED. Yes, Iran is a giant country, not EASY to defeat a LARGE country. But let’s look at its terrain. Iraq War was the tank war in the desert and the smart missiles, and heavy airpower. Tanks work well in wars in the DESERT. The USA had tanks in Vietnam and Afghanistan too. THEY DIDN’T HELP. America lost those wars. Russians tried tanks in Afghanistan too: lost.

“A DRAMATIC difference between neighbors Iraq and Iran is that Iraq is flatland desert sand. And Iran is MOUNTAINS like.. Afghanistan. Not suitable terrain for tank warfare (for much of the country, there are some plains yes).

“So then air power. The USA has the world’s biggest and most powerful air force. BY FAR the strongest in the world. And what is America’s favorite air power tool? The remotely piloted ‘drone’ like the Predator. Unmanned killer in the sky. Nearly unstoppable.

“Who invented the modern remotely piloted drone? Not the USA. It was invented by Israel (Tadiran Mastiff and IAI Scout). Most Western Air Forces have deployed Israeli Drones. Most drones flying today include Israeli licenced tech. the Predator has Israeli tech. The unmanned remotely-piloted warplane, the ‘drone’ is America’s favorite tool to fight wars today. And who used them first? Israel. Who used them SECOND? A DECADE before the USA deployed drones in a war?… yeah… IRAN (against Iraq in its decade-long war).

“The USA has never fought an adversary who HAD DRONES. Iran has LONGER MILITARY experience using drones IN BATTLE, than the USA and Iran was the first nation to deploy OFFENSIVE weapons onboard drones (when even Israel only used them for ‘spying’). Nasty enemy!

“Let’s skip airplanes and tanks. Let’s go to the most expensive weapon system ever deployed – US Navy’s mighty aircraft carriers. USA used airpower from carriers in most of its wars including Korea, Vietnam (John McCain was a NAVY pilot) and Iraq.

“Iran does NOT have aircraft carriers. But they have the WORST enemy for carriers instead – SUBMARINES. North Korea did not have submarines during the Korean war. North Vietnam didn’t have subs in the Vietnam war. Iraq didn’t have subs in either of the Iraq wars.

“Since World War 2, USA has not fought ANY war against ANY rival including the small wars Somalia, Syria, and Bosnia – where the adversary operated submarines. Iran has submarines. They CHANGE the combat equation at sea – TOTALLY.

“Let’s talk population. Iran’s population is near 90 million. That is about the same as 3 out of the four rivals I mentioned: Iraq, Afghanistan, North Korea, and North Vietnam. Take THREE of those four, the population (when they had their war) is about 90 million.

“Then let’s talk about INDUSTRIALIZATION. Some idiots think ‘Iranians are Beduins’ like ‘Arabs’. Iranians are not Arabic people. They are PERSIANS who are related to Europeans. Iran is an INDUSTRIALIZED country, similar to Southern European countries.

“When the USA fought North Korea, it was a peasant nation. North Vietnam was a farming peasant nation. Afghanistan was and still is one of the poorest and least literate countries on the planet. Iraq was an oil-only economy. Iranians are EDUCATED and DIVERSE economy.

“I do not mean that Iran could ‘win’ a war it STARTED against USA (like say a Pearl Harbor style sneak attack). I mean Iran is FAR worse rival than Vietnam or Afghanistan, a war USA cannot – CANNOT win. It would be a DECADES long quagmire of death and blood.

“When USA fought Iraq (twice) that ‘nation’ was ineffective civil war, among THREE factions (Sunnis closely aligned with Syria, Shias aligned with Kuwait and Iran, and the Kurds). Iran is a HOMOGENOUS nation, essentially all Persians. Not DIVIDED

“Earlier in 2019 Trump talked of 120,000 troops for Iran War. HAHAHA. Iran fought a DECADE-LONG war, when Saddam Hussein yes Iraq attacked. With 600,000 soldiers! When France & Soviets FULLY supported Iraq, & UK & USA supported modestly Iraq & nobody Iran.

“Saddam had superiority in tanks, airplanes, soldiers, plus Saddam had MILITARY support of essentially all major weapons-providers. And IRAN HAD NO SUPPORT (in fact, Israel secretly helped Iran a little bit). Yet Iran pushed Iraq back, to stalemate.

“Iran has what Vietnam had – Vietnam had ALREADY defeated Japan & France, by the time US went in. Iran has what Afghanistan had – Afghanistan had ALREADY defeated Britain & Soviets (Russians) before the US went in. And USA could not win its OWN wars vs VN & Afghanistan.

“I do not mean, that Iran could in any way ‘win’ against the USA (like invade Texas or Alaska haha). But the USA CANNOT DEFEAT an enemy like Iran, this strong, this big, this competent, this HEAVILY ARMED with ADVANCED weapons who is UNIFIED & experienced.

“Trump & Pompeo are pushing for a war against Iran. Trump wants ANY war to distract from his problems. A war in Iran would be NOTHING like the ‘easy’ wars in Iraq. War in Iran would be like the mess in Vietnam & the unending war in Afghanistan – only WORSE.

“If Iran had done something HORRIBLE – like how Saddam Hussein INVADED and took over Kuwait – then maybe it might make sense to build a coalition for war. What we should know is that TRUMP’s lender – SAUDI ARABIA – want American soldiers to go die in Iran.

“Saudi Arabia sees Iran as its regional rival. While both are Muslim nations, they have differing religious views (Iran is Shia, Saudi is Sunni). Saudis would love nothing more, than to see Iranian blood spilled – by AMERICAN soldiers dying there. Wrong war!”

curled from Daily Post Nigeria

einsteine:
These are Democrat senators. Do you expect them to support Trump?

Iran can only fight a covert war and kill a few Americans. In an out and out war, it won't take long before Khomeini is sentenced to death by his own people just like Sadam. Iran that couldn't defeat Iraq under Sadam.

The point is, more and not less American lives will be affected.

What has US gained in its involvement in Libya, Afghanistan, Syria and other countries it has taken military actions in?

Resurgent2016:
Iran can do nothing to the US, they are just lucky they met a president like Trump. Bush or Bush jnr will have made that country a parking lot by now. Saddam was a more sinister threat than Iran, US didn't even blink before clearing him out.

Even the likes of Russia and China don't threaten the US the way Iran does. Even Israel that possess just a fraction of US military strength will have dealt decisively with Iran if it had tried half of what they tried with trump.

U.S. Senator Chris Murphy, a Democrat from Connecticut, said that while Soleimani was “an enemy of the United States,” the killing could put more Americans at risk.
“One reason we don’t generally (assassinate) foreign political officials is the belief that such action will get more, not less, Americans killed,” Murphy said on Twitter. “That should be our real, pressing and grave worry tonight.”

They know what Iran is capable of doing.

Sterope:
Would these Iranians love to watch their country in flames? Would these Iranians support the present tension between Iran and the West?

Let's us use our brains. It is given for a reason.


quote author=Luchitec post=85455055]An average Iranian is actually mad that the silly religious leaders have ruined the country. In fact, for every 10 Iranian youth you see in Tehran, Isfahan, Shiraz and etc., 9 would gladly give one of their limbs in order to escape to the west. Iran is a good example of the dangers of mixing religion with politics.

False. The assassination of Qassem Soleimani (a name synonymous with Iranian pride), Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis and others will shockingly unite Iranians and its allies in the entire Middle East against US. This guys will show this anger.

DIKEnaWAR:
Will Iran give President Trump what he wants? I doubt.

Trump wants war with Iran. He knows a wartime President has a higher hopes of being reelected as fear and uncertainty bonds people with their responsive leaders. Just as George Bush jnr got reelected because of the 911 attack and consequent war and Obama was handed a reelection with his reaction to the hurricane that happened close to his reelection.

Iran is too much of a chicken hearted coward that thrive in noise making to enter into a war with America. The Ayatollah is biish who loves to cling to power and knows a war ith America will threaten his position. Nothing will happen from this. Infact, Iran might secretly seek to pacify America cos Ayatollah is peeing in his pants by now.

Assassinating General Qassem Soleimani and Iraqi militia commander - Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis - is a big pre-election gamble by Trump. Iran will directly or indirectly surely avenge this.

ZombieTERROR:
Iran will do nothing

They are not even the size of two US states

No be by size. Today, due to her nuclear might, Iran posses one of the biggest threats to world security. Again, being a major supplier of global crude, Iran can cause global economic crises if provoked. The US and other world powers know this, hence, their preference for negotiation with Iran.

Trapping:
But I'm somehow happy that US took this action. For months now iran has been running gaga and abusing US. the ball now is in their court to prove their military might.

Trust me, they'll definitely hear from Iran, and the whole world might feel its impact.

US and its citizens in the region should be on guards because the killing of General Qassem Soleimani (the head of Iran's elite Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' (IRGC's) Quds Force, and architect of its regional security apparatus) and Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis (the Iraqi militia commander) is equivalent to the Iranians "assassinating" the US defence secretary, and/or the commander of the US Central Command, and Iran will definitely retaliate.

Iranian Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has vowed a "vigorous revenge is waiting for the criminals." Also, the Iranian President Hassan Rouhani echoed the Supreme Leader's threat of "revenge".

Obnoxious laws, like this, are made to divert attention from the obvious cluelessness and ineptitude of a government.

Great news even though I didn't read the content...
FTC on a 31st like this.. 2020 I'm coming for you... GREATNESS for SURE

Didn't bother to read it because you were gunning for FTC.

What if she loves the other guy more? Try suppress your emotional attachment to her, and give a little time, space and freedom to decide what she feels is best for her. Love is sweetest when both parties have personal unalloyed convictions to be together. That way, you worry less about distractions.

nero2face:
I've been around Abia, Imo, Enugu and Anambra all these years, sincerely I've not seen nor heard of this feeding program, I won't say ur lying but I don't the authenticity of ur info.. tnx

Stop speculating. Visit public primary schools in these states and verify.

adecz:


A beautiful FTC at the end of
This year!!!


Meanwhile, this school feeding
program is another nonsense one
by the mumutious APC govt.

Billions are wasted 'feeding' pupils that
have no classrooms to study in.

Have you ever been to any school where these meals are served to see the number of (new) enrollment and how happy and excited the pupils and staff usually get just to be in school? We just most time ignorantly criticize government.

nero2face:
please this so called school feeding, is it for some zones alone?, I've not seen nor heard anything of such here in SE/SS...pliz someone should inform me if am getting it wrong...

Its on-going in 30 states. SE: Anambra, Abia, Enugu, Ebonyi and Imo. SS: Akwa Ibom, Cross River and Edo.

The pupils (and staff sef) are fed in selected days of the week, and the meals are ok.

There is nothing wrong in celebrating with those that celebrates. It dosen't change ones beliefs nor reduce ones place with God. Rather, it shows how truly one loves God.

You can't be talked into or gifted happiness. It comes from within, and only when the heart is filled with love and gratitude. Love heals, attracts more love, fills vacuums, erases scars and transforms lives.
These few tips could help:
1. Do at least one good deed everyday to someone (anyone) without expecting any form of reward (not even a "Thank you".
2. Make-out time to render simple selfless/voluntary services. e.g. you can join in cleaning up your church.
3. Visit and spend quality time with your loved ones.
4. Keep good and healthy company. Be around people that truly care about you.
5. Activate your hobbies. Do something that makes you happy.
6. Each day, try get a quiet place, be still and go within. Let go of all your worries and concerns. Sit or lie for about 10-15mins and reminisce on an event, something or someone that makes you exceptionally happy.
7. Above all, strengthen your relationship with God. When you pray, avoid directional prayers, where you tend to command, make demands and petition the Almighty. Rather, show gratitude for His blessings in your life, and just surrender everything into His precious hand.

Remember, you are solely responsible for your life. The choice to be happy or sad is always yours to make. The buck stops right before you!
