The US Army, except perhaps its SOFs, won't get involved; USN/AF/MC will, & they r not standing still & move a lot.Washington regime has no standing army.

So that the US & Israel have a free reign in the ME.I am getting sick and tired of the brain dead NATO propaganda about how Iran "cannot be allowed to get a nuclear bomb". Why?

How can Iran do that ? The moment they hit the assembly areas & bases, the US will declare war on them.
It attests to the efficacy of zionist propaganda that most people don't realize this. They focus on the Iranian program which might produce a n-bomb or two, while ignoring the 100-200 nuclear bombs Israel has already.
Can we be sure? Wouldn't the US equip its armor with the Trophy or a similar system?

2 ballistic missiles with 600-800kg warhead on every totally unprotected secondary US bases will make huge loses to US. Specially in Iraq. Those bases are concentrations of GIs protected only against farmers with ak-47.
Main bases will be targeted by hundreds of missiles.
Iran doesn't have hundreds of missiles and the moment they follow what you said ( launch 2 BM on US bases) they will face a few hundred US Ballistic and cruise missiles.

They have.
Their goal won't be to win the war. They will be destroyed anyway. Their actual army is pathetic compared to even iraqi army back in the 90s. No tanks, no modern airforce, local air defense ... their only hope is to succeed in ballistic missile attacks and guerillas if US send troops.

Iran has way more of an airforce than Iraq had. Majority of Iraq's military was destroyed during the Kuwait war. Iraq had little in the means of fighting back.
Local air defenses are much more advanced than what Iraq had since Iraq relied on 100% imported while Iran can produce majority of what they need - its all about logistics and keeping up. In terms of ballistic missiles, Iran has more than enough to destroy multiple US bases and inflict massive casualties. As for their armored forces, they are more modern than Iraq's and a lot of it is localized upgrades. Plus they produce their own ATGM's and MANPADS. With Iran being rather very mountainous, they would cause havok on US forces. No, they wouldn't win 1 on 1. But they have enough to cause so much damage that it would possibly cause mass discontent within the US.
No, they need nukes in case of a 6-Day War replay with 5 Arab nations + Iran potentially overwhelming their defenses. Also, chemical & bio WMD r easier to procure/use & could be resorted to in a war against Israel if all else fails.GarryB wrote:If Israel needs all those nukes "in case Arab or Persian States get nuclear weapons" then why all these attacks on the various so called nuclear weapons programmes.
I mean if Israel is going to attack countries for developing nuclear weapons, then they really don't need any nukes for themselves at all...
