US & her allies such as saudi, UAE, aware of Iran military capacity which they don't know all its weapons and US usually attack most of their victim countries after they know the capacity of their weapons.

And Iran is a nuclear power, the fact is no nation in possession of nuclear weapons can be invaded, that's why US can't attack North Korea since the regime of Bush junior, US can only use sanctions against Iran and North Korea, if they decided to attack Iran - it'll affect all gulf nations because Iran is leader of Shia and also sponsored them in all Arabians... It will be total chaos in most of gulf states.

Quiet.. US military budget since 2 years he took over office is 750 billion USD each year. That is 15billion dollar.

Na beer them de use the money drink, the fund is meant for war.

They are ready for war anyday...any time
How many bases does this US have outside its territory. Part of the defense budget was used to build this useless stealth drone which was shot down by Iran's air defense which was believed to be outdated. grin grin

Imagine shooting a 150M+ dollars drone with a missile which costs $3000 per warhead? cheesy grin

Why should I tell you? I won't, no need. But I will tell you this, the 21st century, particularly this ending part, has brought about futuristic tech people never thought was possible. Just like scientists have figured out a way to make a man survive without a heart, same way scientists have already figured out a way to make something 'invisble' by bending lights with metamaterials. I kid you not. Cloaking technology exists, although it is top secret. Only America has this technology currently.

http://www.physics.org/article-questions.asp?id=69

Its not about knowing, but if the technology to make something like that is available, secondly, its top secret but for some reason, one Ade in ajegunle knows about this top secrets

Am very sure Trump knows the implication of that on US dat was why he opted out. Every country has its strength & weakness in d event of war. Iran is quite sophisticated in terms of intelligence and armoury Wich will spell doom for US as well. In the end, they both will lost.
the US is going the way of sanction first. Iran economy is in ruin . their currency is falling.
the US Navy has blocked the route where 1/5th of the world oil are taken to the market and that is to only place Iran plan to use in evading the sanctions that was placed on them by the US.
all Iran is doing is to try and create a crisis then cry out to the world for pity .
if they kill any American soldier, they will be another Syria or Afghanistan

Trump is a business wetin? The guy who went bankrupt a dozen times? The guy who lost money running a casino (who does that?) In fact all the money Trump had before he was elected president was what he inherited from his father plus the salary he got from hosting his reality TV.

Now how much did he inherit from his father? No disrespect, but I know you don't trade or do business. Sometimes people file for bankruptcy just to escape taxes. Why do you think Congress is after his returns and the deals he made even when he was bankrupt? Trump's always been a businessman and a hardcore businessman who uses everything in his disposal to get what he wants! Both adding cunning acts to it!

A President who's working for free is one you should give kudos to..

Now back to the matter, the best way to fight war is not to shoot down rockets and fire bullets, but to target the people economically and after that, empowering neighboring enemies.. Not necessarily throwing bombs! Trump is doing that well! Some members of Congress and Senate understand this very well.. But who would invite wars down his own house, isn't that stupidity?

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

You re wrong, Saudi Arabia and Israel are part of those lobbying the US to fight Iran. I wonder why people think this has to do with religion, this is about who controls the ME. The US is obviously scared of Iran being a regional power in the ME, who can stand up to its hegemony and the pushover from Israel.

Saudi Arabia leaders are confirmed Israel asslicker. Let's watch as this plays out grin grin

Iran has the capabilities to defend herself,Saudi is still grooming,if Iran gets destroyed at this moment,what can stop US from reaching Saudi?
So,the current Saudi royals are truelly US and Isreal aslickers but don't forget there are other Saudi royals waiting for the current Royal family to go overboard so they can use the peoples support to take control.

You maybe right and wrong! Trump is a wild card and is unpredictability should be taken with serious concern.

A man who can move the American embassy to Jerusalem, unilaterally end the Iran deal, commence building a border wall despite resistance from the ruling class and start a trade war with it's biggest treading partner shouldn't be dismissed with the wave.

You guys once said that it's impossible for Trump to attach Syria when Russia is deeply involved. But US attached Syria twice and nothing happened.I don't know if you guys understand the country (US) we are talking about here.

Not at all, never said anything of such. Syria maybe powerful but they have nothing on the most powerful country in that region known as Iran.

The truth is that Iran and Syria are worlds apart.

Iran is a major world power, Syria is more or less a rogue state.

Be in no doubt, anyone attacking Iran without the joint consent of Russia & China would be staring down the barrel of a massive global conflict.

Its even argued correctly that Iran doesnt need assistace from either Russia or China, they are capable of taking care of themselves, they just happen to be close allies.

Nobody really wants to mess around with our relative peaceful world of today.

Trump aligned very well with them.. This POTUS is so brainy that he knows Saudi, UAE, and their major Islamic allies in the Middle have money to spend.. Now Saudi is in a heated moment with Iran and it's ally Yemen.. They are done ravaging Yemen and they're looking towards Iran.. They now trust Trump seeing how he's hellbent on selling weapons to them despite Congress refusal.

Compared to then, the US military is 1 billion times more advanced. Do you know America now has completely invisible fighter planes? I'm not talking about invisible to radar due to bouncing off tech etc, I'm talking about invisible to the eyes. Do you know the US military has also developed invisible cloaking technology for their soldiers. Imagine fighting soldiers that are completely invisible to the naked eyes, imagine that level of technology. Do you know the US military has developed tracking guns, that is guns that can lock onto a target and no matter how you shoot the bullet will track down its target, like the guided missiles tech. You guys don't know how powerful the US military is. Obama made them weak and tried to dismantle them a bit, but Trump has made them and is making them 1000 times stronger again.

Of course America can cripple the Iranian military in a conventional war. But if you think the Iranians won't resort to Asymmetric warfare, then you're in for a shocker. Besides, Iran is a far larger with a far harsher terrain compared to the Iraqi flatlands. Setting up a logistics line will equally be very difficult. Keep in mind the Iranians will be fighting in their home turf, and they will fight dirty. I don't really see America coming out on top if a war breaks out.

Of course, no war is easy war (except those from the pages of the Holy Bible). Iran is no match for America irrespective of the metric considered or means resorted to. It is an impossible situation. The best plane in Iranian inventory (aside the Russian made MiG 29) is the F-14 Tomcat, a plane that debuted fifty (50) solid years ago. Need I add that it is an American plane supplied to Iran during the good old days of the Shars. America spends more than the rest of the world combined on defence -- it is an inconceivable situation.

Iran would fight dirty; it would attack American bases within reach; it would mine the waters around the strait of Hormuz, impeding the traffic for about a fifth of the world's supply of hydrocarbon; it would use proxies BUT it would be beaten SOUNDLY.

A single USN battle group (cruisers, destroyers, nuclear submarines, aircraft carriers -- with their flight of F-35s and F-18s -- and supply ships) would effectively blockade Iran and create a deadly envelope for Iranian fighter planes.

How would Iranian soviet-copy frigates and attack submarines hold against a USN that boasts of 20 aircraft carriers (more than the entire worldwide fleet), several destroyers, cruisers and a class of nuclear submarines that can literally sit underwater for several years (till food supply runs out) and fire at anywhere on the globe! C'mon.

It would be at a cost but it is a NO CONTEST.

Yes. Trump is working for 'free' and YET using the presidency to make a killing with his hotels. American president salary per year is about 400,00 dollars. Trump and his family has billed the tax payers tens of million of dollars since he became president. So is Trump really working for free and taken advantage of the American tax payers?
