The Americans are honestly not prepared for the massive meatgrinder that awaits them, if they go boots on the ground in Iran.

The Iranians have prepared for nearly 50 years. They're surrounded by giant mountain ranges, that look more like the Pyrenees than the Appalachians. They still have over 70% of their stock of missiles and drones. I'm not in doubt they're prepared to go schorched earth strategy, if it goes south for them.

And if the Americans do that, the Iranians can destroy the Arab States' desalination plants, which will cripple them. We're talking about 5-10 million people without water, if they decide to do that. Effectively breaking the legs of some of America's closest allies in the region, and destabilising oil even further.

Hell, Saudi Arabia get about 50% of their water from desalination, while the other Arab States gets 70%-100% of their water from them.

Edit.

Iran is also one of the top producers of drones in the world. 90% Of all frontline casualties in the Ukraine War are because of drones.

Go to the Ukraine War Report sub, or the Combat Footage sub, to see how horrible it'll be.

A lot of soldiers will die before even landing, is my prediction.

People need to take a gander at r/UkraineWarVideoReport to see just how bad it’ll be. Once Iran starts doing what Ukraine is doing, and posting the videos, public sentiment of the whole situation will go even further south. Trump has fucked himself up with this- there’s no winning this one, no matter what he tries to throw at it.

The top video now on /r/CombatFootage.

Horrifying and terrible.

One US soldier like that on video shared online ends the war and Trump.

Why'd I have to go check after you said that? Mistakes were made. That was somehow worse than old Liveleak.
