there arent enough troops to take iran. iran is twice the size of iraq and has twice as many people. they werent laid to waste 16yrs ago and the ruling party has done a very good job of keeping up the country and the military. it would not be possible to win such a war, even with nukes. we would need the help of russia and china to win and that wont happen.

Umm... ya, I completely disagree with you in pretty much every statement you said aside from the size of Iran... It wouldn't be possible to "win" (if you want to call it that) a war against Iran if nukes were used? Are you retarded? If a nukes were used, trust me, the war would be over VERY quickly. It will never come to that though, I seriously doubt another nuke will ever be used by the US military. Way too many "innocents" of war dieing.Originally Posted by sebastianHoff
Even without nukes, you dont think this war could be won with simply the US and Israel (yes, they would jump at a chance to take them out)? You seem underestimate Israel and the US...
You are right on, every single human activist group would come out of the woodworks if they had even the slightest feeling that the US would use a nuke. I swear to god, I hate all these pussy ass bastards that always want to protest about something...what happened to the people who believed in their country and govt, instead of whining about it?
If US did decide to take Iran up on their threat, Hyper was right....Israel would jump right in line to help us out, and that would cause a whole shit storm for Iran.
Ya im done lissening to liberal boy, The size of the army dosnt matter in 1991 during the persian gulf war the Iraqis had the 3rd or 4th largest army in the world cant remember(over a million men), but with 550000+ troops we kicked the shit outta them, and at the time our smart bomb technology was no where near as good as it is now, during the first gulf war 10% of all bombs dropped were smart bombs so that speaks for itself. Iran has hardly the amount of weaponry that the Iraqis had, 70 F14 tomcats were sent to Iran before 1979 but those are in complete disrepair b/c they havnt been able to get parts from them and before the US advisors left they sabotaged the aircraft...Yes we could take Iran by ourselves it would just have to be a much longer bombing campaign. For the next 10 years the US probably wont be engaged in another major war. We may be involved in small policing actions like that in Liberia, Bosnia, Kosovo where some military force is required but nothing like a full scale war.
