Iran uses ambiguity to it's advantage as do many other countries. Better to keep your enemies guessing what you're capable of rather than touting it day in day out.
Who knows maybe Iran truly has something that renders nukes useless. I've been hedging my bets that Iran does indeed have over a...
Which begs the question. If the US were to go down, will it take it's enemies with it?
I say yes since the world that is left will not be kind to Whats left of the US. I always hated the zero sum kind of thinking. If I can't have it then no one can sort of mindset that will lead to eventual...
The surprising truth about Iran and the West
For the eight years of Barack Obama’s presidency, the United States treated Iran as if it were a major rising power in the world dominating the Middle East. But Iran is not a First World or even Second World power. Iran, as a Third World country, is...
Hundreds of thousands.... Hundreds of thousands? Where are you getting these numbers from?
[UPDATE] Nevermind, don't answer it. I know your wrong...Shit I fed the troll
HELP!!!?!?!?!?
Didn't expect that. I'm guessing this was done with IRGC missile experts on the ground?
Anyways this sends a clear message. The patriot defense system is garbage and the Iranians know it.
It wouldn't be outside the realm of possibility that Iran is indeed talking to both the Russians and the Chinese on defensive weapons transfer and joint cooperation on projects.
I also would go far as saying that Iranian-Chinese cultural relations are more in line with each other. That would also provide a very good basis for future development. Regardless though, Iran needs to start working at a faster pace since US and Israel are more or less going to make more and...
How long till Rouhani leaves and what is the likely person/administration to succeed him? I get this bad gut feeling that Tehrani's view their opinions and idea's as the rest of the countries ideas and opinions, which I'm guessing is liberal and the bend to others will kind of liberal.
It kind of makes you wonder what the US intelligence agencies knew about Iranian capabilities circa 2002. Best guess (since Iran hasn't had to fire their stockpile of anti-ship missiles of various variants in mass) Iran has only stockpiled and spread it's missile force all along the coast with...
This point is something that Iranians in Iran have to understand. Whatever the view of everyday Americans is. It doesn't matter. Iran is a enemy state of the worst kind in the eyes of the US government and it's allies the world over (Namely, Israel and the Gulf Arabs).
I really don't think...
Hopefully I wasn't taken the wrong way. But I know full well that the overall theme of the relationship will be negative. But its the finer details that I wanted to discuss.
I will actually amend that in my post.
So I just wanted to get all the members here opinions on the Trump presidency and how Iran and the US will be moving forward. I know it seems bleak on the surface (and for good reason too). But it would be nice if we can all say our opinions to reach a group consensus of some sort.
As always...
It be best if you left him be. Whether he is Jewish or American or Israeli doesn't matter at this point. All of the users with Israel as their flag constantly go on Iranian threads and try to delegitimize them and the content in the thread (From a scholarly perspective, avoiding them would be...
Hmm... what ever your guy's quarrels are, one thing is for sure. With Trump as president our worse fears are more or less going to be realized. He might as well be an Israeli citizen at this point, so for Iran, its best to keep up weapons production (if not kick it up several notches into...
Yavar do you have any information on this supposed strike on the Hatzor base?
It still seems as though it is fake but I will withhold judgement until any further evidence comes to light.
That does seem to be the case. Media black out is a common occurrence in Israel and the West. Regardless, we will have to wait and see.
I do remember the Russian retaliation and I also have concluded that it was real. It only makes sense since after the attack the militants actions around that...
