But instead we tried to make them a peaceful democracy where no peaceful democracy can be.

Why can't a peaceful democracy be there?

Because it’s literally impossible. We tried peaceful democracy it blew up in our faces. Iraqis just can’t control democracy they either need limited democracy under a monarchy or a dictatorship. That’s how it’s been for centuries and it’s not going to change any time soon

No the mistake was to appoint a local government with the power at all.
They should have installed an American general or someone like that, and made new laws for the whole country unilaterally(essentially writing their laws). After some time, then they could have handed the power to the locals.

Expect attacks like 9/11 and the Oklahoma City bombing to be happening every three or four months as part of an Iran Independence movement. Hell, if they get there hands on the reborn Iran Nuke program, expect US cites to be destroyed.

It's not like independence programs from states already inside the US don't exist.

Not one of those independence movements actually matters. At best they make up 1% of the state population

Then we produce justice. Those Iranians who do not carry out violent attacks would be rewarded and helped. I would rather have domestic terrorism in the short term, with a stronger US in the long term, than ravage Iran and abandon its husk.

You make it sound so easy. Producing justice isn't just something we can just do.

No it wouldn’t be. Especially not if we ran it like we did Japan in the 1940s.

Also I said nothing about annexing Iran. That was all you.

And you are fucking naïve

The majority of the attacks would be in Iran not the US, do you even know the history of insurgencies? The attacks wouldn’t be on a massive scale but small attacks designed to keep people on edge but not enough to retaliate. The IRA perfected this

Yes, but you said that the current independence movements where not relevant.

Hawaii, Texas, and California don't have the same many years as Iran to form it's own identity.


It's not a matter of being willing to, it's the matter of Iran being totally different from the above.

Iran has easy access to the black market, lots of people who would rebel, and lots of terrorist groups that would help out the Independence movement just cuz they hate the US.

Imagine Al-Qaeda striking in side the US every week. Imagine dirty bombs in NY. Imagine 9/11 scale attacks every 3-4 months.

The US and the world where made catatonic by just the one, now think of it happening every few months.

You make it sound like the only thing we need to do to make a peaceful Iran 51'st state is to want it.

There would be hundreds of thousands willing to make Iran independent.


This would be a colossal mistake for the US to do.

Clicked on the thread with the idea of discussing Tehran threatening to blockade the Strait of Hormuz and instead wind up in a Reddit Iranian Blowjob fiction forum.

Even if the blockade is not possible, the declaration is a symptom that Donnie is slowly but surely pissing off parts of the entire world that's not Putin or Kim. No country can literally take on the rest of the world and win.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be proof of a pan-Islamic plot and Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand, crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of mentally ill lone wolves who do not represent their professed belief system at all.
The probability of someone secretly participating in homosexual acts is directly proportional to the frequency and loudness of their publicly professed disapproval and/or disgust for homosexuality.
If Donald Trump accuses an individual of malfeasance without evidence, it is almost a certainty either he or someone associated with him has in fact committed that very same malfeasance to a greater degree.

A brutal pro American dictator in Iraq world have kept Isis under control and it never would have gotten as bad as it did.

But instead we tried to make them a peaceful democracy where no peaceful democracy can be.


Then tell me why Hussein failed to content both Al-quaeda and ISIS? Or do you now want to argue that Hussein was no dictator?

So dictators like Hussein, Sadam, the monarchy in Quatar etc. are now suddenly democratic leaders that govern their countries via peacefull democracy? That´s new to me.

The US and the world where made catatonic by just the one, now think of it happening every few months.

The US was fucking pissed off. If one happened every month it would result in the total genocide of the Iranian people. I don’t think you understand just how pissed off the US would be.

And Japan wasn't totally peaceful then too. Riots could turn into a movement on a dime.

This wouldn't be like Northern Ireland. This would be totally different beacuse the IRA didn't have the backing of al-qaeda.

Anyway, going to just chill out on another thread seeing how I'm just pissing everyone off again.

All these examples contain small regions without any means of indepedency and on top of it all culturaly identical to the invading culture. This also includes identical environment.

In case of the ME we are talking about sometimes large, inhospitable and foreign countries. Everything there is foreign to us, from the culture to the environment our soldiers would have to fight in. On top of it we are talking about proud people with a strong will that resisted overwhelmingly stronger invades multiple times already, and already resisted american puppets, carpet bombings, sanctions, uranium ammunition and other underhanded means of annexing them.

This is not gonna be a walk in the park like annexing a super small fucking and maybe also culturaly identical region or mini island with no viable ressources. This is gonna be real war, and cost you a shitton too.

Remember the Iraq war? The 40 billion us dollars you spent on motherfucking COOLING of your military bases because your soldiers can´t handle a bit of dessert heat without literaly desserting after some time? That´s the cost for cooling only, you are risking a larger scale war here, which is gonna drive up your costs including cooling immensely. And whilst you are at war, you will have NO access to the oil you so desperately need to actually fucking PROPELL your military equipment. Otherwise you´re simply going nowhere and invading nothing.

The middle east would simply block your oil access completely, and since Russia also has an interest they could do the same and say: Oil embargo for America! Latest then you are fucked beyond any repair and any chance of winning anything.

But you know what? Go on, think you are invincible, also leave the WTO and let us please punish the shit out of you. America deserves nothing less.

P.S. You owe us Germans gold bars, it´s time we started demanding them. Actually you owe the former Sovietunion too in that regard.
