>>508768589Iraqi's during Iraq war 2 they were not ready to fight and they got steamrolled. They have over a year to prepare, but thought laying down low was the plan.
If Iran mobilised it would have more time to prepare. The problem is this: the USA is going to go bankrupt in the next 5-10 years. Israel wants to squeeze the last drop of American power out to destroy one last enemy.
>>508767679I should point out, although they are diverse they hate Jews and their media is openly anti-Zionist. That means a lot. (to not the Kurds I guess, but then, Turkey might fall on Iran's side here)
>>508769146The USA can not mass produce fighter jets any longer. This isn't the USA of ww2 or Vietnam or even Iraq 2.
China can mass produce jets and SAM's. In a protracted war the USA would lose only relying on air strikes. This is why Iran could fortify the country and be just fine, so long as they can defend against a ground army.
It's the same shit going on with Russia. Russia can mass produce what they need for war, Ukraine can not and they are depleting Europe and the USA's equipment in the process.
