    It is also increasingly apparent that Iran has made great strides in the same direction.

    A reason that I haven’t considered on why Iran won’t be another Iraq or Afghanistan, and by this I mean it will be a much harder war for NATO, and they will lose even more badly and even more decisively, and it won’t take them 20 years to admit defeat. There are many other reasons why the US will lose more severely to Iran, it will not be an easy fight at all.

    As I have noted repeatedly in recent months: for the declining empire and its decrepit vassals, there are no easy wars left to fight.

    I’m glad I’m not the only one who sees this. The last easy war is the one ongoing on Gaza, an imprisoned population with no air force or navy or tanks or anti missile defenses.

      If you understand about this subject, if Iran was attacked could and would it strike at much of the yankee allied oil fields in the middle east?

      • I say given the China-brokered peace deal the answer is No they wouldn’t. They can just block the Hormuz strait, and Yemen will continue to block Bab el Mandeb. But if the Arabian Gulf monarchies collaborate with the US in anyway that harms Iran then the oil fields and military bases will be legitimate targets for the Iranians and easily within their reach.

        I’m betting the Arab monarchies will stay neutral because if they couldn’t protect themselves from Yemeni strikes they know they are in trouble if they earn Iran’s wrath.
