Anyway, a 51'st state of Iran would be like a 2010/2020 version of Vietnam.

The 51'st state would be born, two seconds later there would be fighting from an Independent Iran Movement or IIM.

The IIM would be backed by Al-Qaeda and Russia beacuse of the "Fuck US" mentality.

Years of fighting later, the IIM would eventually win, US would withdraw. After of course millions dead in terrorist attacks.

I hope that all this doesn't happen of course. So thats why I don't think the US should invade Iran.

Because thats what I think would probably happen. I hope it doesn't, but that's what I think would happen.

I only support annexation in the event war was unavoidable, BTW.

The IIM is going against the most powerful military in the world after they already lost the war. There is no way they are going to win unless we give up, which would frustrate me to no end.


Who says that that automatically leads to your victory? You didn´t win the Iraq war either, nor did Iraq win it. What makes you think it´s gonna be any different then Vietnam or Iraq?

Europe and Asia learned the price of warmongering the hard way. America won't until its entire land is leveled twice in bloody, bloody war.

Then time to bomb America back into the 19th century like Europe experienced it in 1945. If that´s the only way to get that inherent warmongering out of them so be it. I rather have Americans die then watch America destroy the entire world and all humans in it.

The civilian population of Iran would be supportive of the IIM. They have no reason to give up.

The civilian population of the US would be under fire and have a lot of reasons to give up. (attacks from Al-Qaeda on US soil both small and large)

1. Another world war necessarily isn't a bad thing, considering we would win it. Everything we do is justified because we're promoting human rights, free enterprise and democracy. If the entire world is democratic, there will be no more wars. The problem is, you communists, and other extremists, are standing in the way of peace and harmony, because you're so devoted to your radical ideology that you demand bloodshed. It's sad actually.

2. Fake news fake news fake news. We're unable to produce good results in the countries we invade because there's always obstacles to it, such as continued terrorism in Iraq, Afghanistan and Libya. Though, I should state, all of those were successful military operations, and we were the victors.

3. Why are you so passionate about membership in NATO and the UN? It's an organisation promoting human rights and democracy, foreign concepts to communists. Or the WTO? They're neoliberals.

4. You know how countries progressed and civilised after world war two? Because they adopted western institutions and the US financed the largest and most successful development in global politics: the Marshal Plan. Countries in Eastern Europe didn't progress. Vietnamese didn't progress. They became backwards, undeveloped tyrannical dictatorships. Their citizens were trodden on and starved, and you know what happens today? Privileged westerners stand in solidarity, not with the citizens of these countries, but with their tyrannical leaders. We really need to begin funding measures to tackle extremism on the internet.

Why would al queda support a Shiite country? besides they haven't really been able to do much terrorist wise since 2001, its been IS which is pretty much gone now. Iran probably would halt an invasion just north of the costal plains on the Zagros mountains, some of the highest in the middle east.

I'm an Iranian, I literally live here in Iran, and I am not sure whether I don't want this to happen. Becuase the moment they blockade Hormuz is the moment you know they'll be going down. The problem is what happens afterwards (which is why I am not already out there saying "DO IT YOU FUCKERS" in the streets)

If they do this, there will be heavy sanctions, so you'll have to deal with that. Economy and people would start to suffer and the government would either have to retract this policy or do something else. Or get overthrown.

Well, good luck with that.

Europe brought it upon themselves with the World Wars, especially Germany. It wasn't just America who bombed the shit out of Europe, it was other Europeans. English, French and especially the Soviets and Germans.

I doubt America is going to "destroy the entire world," that's a fucking retarded thought.

It would still be overwhelmed, especially if we go into full war economy.

The Iranian civilians would be supported and helped at all possible intervals, they'd be able to evacuate to the much safer and developed mainland, where many of them would become supportive of the US given enough time experiencing the developed life.

Hopefully, the public would be supportive and carry the burden of the insurrection, even in the hardest times.
