If the war truly happens,Saudi will have to support Iran coz Iran is the only Muslim Nation that can Stand Isreal n USA,so if no more Iran,Isreal will then easily invade Saudi Arabia.

Saudi supporting Iran? Not going to happen.

Saudi is a Sunni nation. Iran is a Shiite nation. And both sides have been fighting for years....centuries even. Like I said..they are even fighting in Yemen....by proxy.

Iran is not that powerful yet by the way. They have a growing science and tech base, but that's about it. If the worse comes to the worse...they will lean on the Russians.

You must be a comendian for you to have compared Iranian ballistic missiles with American's own
na so Japanese they form vandam in 1945, irishima and Nagasaki are still suffering the hit 60years after. Donald Trump is a coward to me, he should do the needful and Boko Haram will end in Nigeria, this useless Iran are sponsoring terrorist all over. They need to be tought a lesson.

Who told you that? Iran just bombed 2 oil tankers, as if that was not enough, they blew up a $120m American drone, did you hear that One Hundred and Twenty Million Dollars. They were deliberately goading Trump to start another Middle-East war before the upcoming 2020 elections, so that Trump can lose the elections because of it, because that would mean Trump has gone against one of his fundamental election promises, and starting a war with Iran could have cost him many of his support base and new convert supporters. The Democrats are in connivance with Iran and Trump eventually saw through their plot and stopped the retaliation attack. Trump doesn't bluff like that. He's the real deal, and he's obviously smarter than his political enemies. They must have sunk into partial heart attacks when Trump cancelled the planned strike 10minutes to go grin
What is US drone doing in Iran Territory?

There is no such thing as Saudi people, only the monarchy whose greatest enemy is Iran.
You need more lessons in international politics.
If Iran is wiped off the map,the next is Saudi.People will just change it for their leader.

The US will end up being drawn into a prolonged and sustaned irregular warfare. Afghanistan and Vietnam would be child's play...

Add the fact that Russia and China won't like the US operating in their sphere of influence at all.

Then there is the fact the war can go nuclear...and today's nuclear bombs make the ones dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 look like toys.

I agree with U.
But no be like Iran o. If America descend on them. E go be like say God para for them. Even if the war go nuclear or chemical. The whole Arab league go feel am. China and Russia might not be happy about it but they wouldn't interfere. They might provide low key logistics support for Iran tho but how far will that go? Then the price of oil will skyrocket cos of Iran's role as an oil producing nation & OPEC in general.

As regards ur description about the capacity of the modern nuclear weapons. Hmmmmmmmmmm!!! Hmmmmmmmmmm!!!! Even God is amazed at the weapons produced in modern times. Hiroshima & Nagasaki are child's play compared to the level of destruction these arms can cause.

Wipe out Iran in 15 minutes? Like seriously? Dude, if US goes to war with Iran, both nations will bleed badly and US won't wipe Iran off in the end.

The US will wipe out Iran in one day. Who was Iran when Saddam Hussein was in Iraq? Iraq was more powerful and yet America finished them like they were nothing. When those F16 jets started dropping bombs, their Army surrendered quickly even before the war started proper grin The only country that can drag with the USA in war right now is Russia, and even Russia won't last more than 2 months. Do you know how much America budgets for its military every year? Almost over 50 times of Russia's budget. As a matter of fact, the USA military budget is almost up to half of the budget of the entire world militaries combined. The USA military is the single most powerful military this world has ever seen, in the entire human history past and present. As for future, let's wait and see

What is US drone doing in Iran Territory?

It wasn't in Iranian territory, it was in international airspace, and that was why America wanted to retaliate. It was a deliberate provocative attack. Every other global power has been begging the US not to strike Iran, claiming it would destabilize the entire Middle East and lead to another series of countless civilian deaths.

Trump got nothing to lose if he decides to wipe out Iran and it’s not gonna take him up to 15 minutes to achieve that. He’s just a perfect gentleman which many pained Democrats would oppose.

Yes, just the way US wiped out Vietnam in just 3 minutes and at the end, there is no Vietnam again today and 58,220 US soldiers that died are not real humans.

Olodo. How many American soldiers lost their lives in ordinary Iraq?

Why did you insult me when I never even referenced you in my post? You have to know the difference between a strike and an occupation war. America lost soldiers (though highly disproportionately compared to the hundreds of thousands of Iraqi soldiers and fighters that died) in Iraq because it waged an occupation war; it fought not to completely cripple the country, but to topple the government of Saddam Hussein, run the country till its stable enough to elect an American stooge. The scenario in Iran would be the strike option which is far easier.

Asssymetric war would always be life-intensive. Even in Niger Republic, the USM has lost soldiers against ISIS-affiliated groups. So don't get it twisted. If an all-out war erupted today, Iran does not even have missiles with enough reach and accuracy to target the American homeland. Don't forget the U.S. owns the GPS (Russia owns Glonass) and they can simply switch it off.

P.S.: Iraq under Hussein was not 'ordinary', it had the fourth largest armoured-force then. It was slightly superior compared to Iran. They fought for years, and Iran was the underdog.

The real reason why he called off the attacks is the financial cost of a new war that the US cannot afford

Lies. Which cost. He just called off because he only threatened them. What's the population of Iran? About 80million with less power.. US wouldn't have gone to war with such country. They would wipe them off. With just 5 nuclear drones.

Iran's Ballistic Missile Capabilities: 100,000 Missiles in 7 Minute

1. This capacity is in doubt...you and I know that.

2. So what after the missiles are launched? Can they sustain a war? Do they have the military and economic depth to sustain a war?

We know US tried to police the world and it's not fair. But we would be worse off without the US. Imagine a world without a super policeman to superintendent over extremist threats...
