Iran to give a crushing response if attacked: Army commander

[Tokhme khar]

Folkhindus, good one..... lol.........to be brutally honest these days the reputation of the U.S. military or that of any of its proxies are a laughing stock. From AfPak to Syraq to Lebanon to the Donbas to Yemen..........lol
Defeat after successive defeat. These guys are a total joke!

Iran has routed them and their toadys left and right. More to follow, until Iran throws them totally out of the ME.

Trump can truly start a great rebuilding of the U.S. armed forces after all these defeats.

That may be to a certain extent. But if they don't come clean on their nukes. And open up completely to the I.A.E.A. They will find their military manufacturing facilities in ruins.

The U.S. won't just stop at nuke sites. But will go aggressively at Iran's whole military infrastructure. And if they think all their rhetorical bluster and threats are going to stop an attack. They are making a grave mistake. And the more they ratchet things up by attacking other gulf countries as a response. the more they will increase the response against them.

Why not America take against North Korea?
More worst going on there than Iran.

Food for thought, coming from a Brit, regarding a hypothetical American war with Iran.

Food ? Interesting...

When I was stationed at RAF Upper Heyford in the late '80s, I found English...pardonnez moi...British cuisine to be kinda blah. In fact, the joke among the population is that the national dish of Britain was, or maybe still is, curry.

Same to be with what you tried to passed off as 'intellectual food' for our consumption -- kinda blah.

Hola, one can type out facetious comments, but it doesn't change the 'sweet scent' of reality- (sticking to the food theme) being your homeland will have bitten off more than it can chew with a potential war with Iran..

Perhaps, well I'm going to go out on a Limb here and guess you're hella into apple pies and fries-those glorious comfort/feel good foods. No problema, amigo. To each their own, but I'll leave you with- "denial isn't a river in Egypt". Ciao.

Ps. I could tan a chicken korma right about now.

Or one can type out an ignorance laden post.

Did you know that NVA General Vo Nguyen Giap lost EVERY set piece battle, even the ones against France ?

Okay, I'll take the bait. Kindly address why you amazing,
God-gifted, talented Americans lost to Vietnam. Moreover, had a well..less than miserable outing in Korea and Afghanistan is still under Taliban control- after your merry presence has graced their lands for over 15 years? Can you not beat about the bush this time, bud.

Also inform us, how America with it's enormous debt, waning currency, coming off back to back losses from weaker foes, will deal with Iran? Sanctions never worked out very well. Let's not even talk about Japan, you had to nuke them. Lastly, Saudi Arabia and Co vs Iran; full on conflict will never come to fruition, if that's what you're banking on.

Ps. American soldiers are actually amongst the worst, yes they are equipped/armed second to none, but very poor in actual battlefield conditions. Only Americans along with their comical 'president' rave about their third rate soldiers. NATO doesn't need you (they can easily shake hands with Russia/China at the drop of a hat and you'd be amongst the 'relics' of the past) you need NATO. Ciao!

Still trying to pass of what you post as 'food for thought', eh ? From what I have read so far, more like junk food to me. Quickly filling to satisfy emotional needs, but intellectually empty. An intellectual lollipop you give to those like minded.

Find me a Commander who says 'we will welcome the attackers '

On a serious note, I hope they have the will and means to do it if the moment arrives

Iran to give a crushing response if attacked: Army commander

Iran will give a crushing response to any attacks against the country, Army Commander Ataollah Salehi said in a message.

“Any plot (orchestrated) by internal and foreign enemies against the sacred system of the Islamic Republic of Iran will be fruitless like the past; and the sacred borders of the Islamic Republic and its valuable achievements will be immune from the foes' attacks,” Salehi said in his message, which was read out during a morning parade on Wednesday.

Elsewhere in the message, the commander pointed to the country’s progress in different scientific, aerospace and military areas, saying Iran has reached a stage that has no dependence on foreign states.

Salehi also stated that the Iranian armed forces have succeeded in making different military achievements during the last (Iranian) year (which ended on March 20), including manufacturing different types of missiles, air defense shields, destroyers, submarines as well as clamping down on terrorist groups and smuggling gangs affiliated to the hegemonic powers.

Saddam sid the same and we all know what happened. He was nabbed like a rat from the gutter hole.
Don't talk big.
It reminds me a poem about talking skull.

i think iran should sign a ,defence pact with russia.

It unofficially already exists between the three joey.........the so called Troika.

This Troika is the nightmare for the hillbilly's.

Iran is a paper cat.

In my honest assessment war with Iran would result in America's collapse. The dollar would take a death-blow, stock markets would take a beating all the way to the ICU, unprecedented economic turmoil for America, Iran merely needs an airforce, maybe some Russian jets soon. One has to admit, America's track record with wars has been hurrendous and posters here need to tone down the rhetoric.

The dollar actually strengthened after Desert Storm - so much for that theory. Anyway America's debt is quite different because it is denominated in domestic currency - and despite all the foolish wars initiated by the Bushes and Obamas the currency has lost little ground to the Euro (only real alternative).

I believe American war tactics are effective but strategy is not. Vietnam, Korea, etc. were all battlefield victories but strategic losses due to a variety of reasons. The Iranian military has less than a hundred jets, two dozen naval vessels of any potency and about a third as many tanks as Saddam had in 1991. Do you really think these will last more than a week?

A ground invasion, would of course, be a costly and bloody affair though suspect threats to use missiles on population centres would lead to a swift armistice.

You forgot to mention Iraq where Iran defeated the U.S. forces, then in the 2006 Lebanon war where the Hezb mauled the IDF. The Syria war too where again Iran defeated U.S. and its Wahhabi toadys. Yemen too.......Houthi's are untouchable.

You might as well also mention AfPak where Pak busted up U.S. forces. And while you are at it, the fighting in the Georgia and Donbas where Russia destroyed U.S. backed Sakashvilli/ Kiev regime forces.

Its just defeat after defeat man.......Not impressed at all with hillbilly or his junk in the trunk.

Hi. I concur. They won't admit it. Anyhow, it's all rhetoric, America isn't about to do something, about a country it can't do anything about.
