Iran’s incompetence led to hundreds of thousands of unnecessary casualties during the war due to human shield tactics, human wave attack tactics, and complete disregard for human life.
It's easy to say now but you weren't there and you weren't faced with the same problems Iran's military was faced with.
IRAN IRAQ
Saddam started the war with 1000 more tanks + 3000 more APC + 1000 more artillery pieces & ended the war with more of everything and not because he wasn't loosing he military equipment but because Saddam's military was being funded by foreigners, given access to military equipment by foreigners,.... While Iran's military was sanctioned and prevented from even buying spare parts
Now years later your complaining of the tactics Iranian solders used to defend IRAN because of propaganda created by the losers of that war?
If the nonsense coming from the west had any truth to it then Iran's casualty numbers would need to be 10 times higher than Iraq's BUT THEY ARE NOT!
Iran's casualty numbers are a little bit higher because 1st off it was Iraq that invaded Iran, 2ndly Iraq had far greater number of Armored Unites & Finally Iraq used WMD's.
And NO DOUBT there were large number of instances where brave Iranian solders had to run to clear a minefield to try to save their unit but the west is NOT going to talk about the Solders that were saved because of those brave acts and instead they wanna demonize them because once Iran was invaded Iranian of all ages would of rather died than to accept an occupying force.
An Iraqi Tank enters into an Iranian military camp and some young kid that cheated his way near the font lines and was doing nothing there but bringing people tea grabs a few grenades and jumps under the Tanks to save everyone there! Now years later people like you get brain washed by the losers of that war and wanna demonize Iranian military leadership for it? Do you know how absurd that is? Things like that happened all the time and that is NOT a tactic it is a single act of bravery! And we had plenty of it and are proud of it and no western propaganda is going to change that.
And I can't believe you actually said Human Shield! What the hell kind of nonsense do you mean by that? You think Saddam's solders wouldn't fire on a tank because there was a human in front of it? Or do you think Saddam's pilots who dropped bombs on random civilian houses all the time gave two shits about collateral damage for Iran to use humans as shields!!! What kind of absurd nonsense is that?
Saddam even dropped Chemical Weapons on Iraqi Kurds so clearly he didn't give two shits about collateral damage
SOOOOOOOOOOON... like never. What a joke.
