Iran vs the US Megathread

[Totally Not OEP]

Can’t be a proxy force, the Pentagon is openly admitting to it.

Oh well. I concede you are right. I think that was a mistake.
Still their ability to respond is limited.

Funny thing is we've already fought a war with Iran once, in 1988. Nobody remembers it for exactly this reason.

[Novus America]

Except it is not clear we openly did. We have not admitted to it.
And they cannot respond with open conventional attacks.

Actually, about that...

Trump ordered strike that killed Iranian Gen. Qassim Soleimani, according to the Pentagon.

Well I was wrong. I think admitting that was a bad idea. But the point still stands their options are limited.

[Aureumterra]

I feel like I just heard the star spangled banner get louder somewhere?

[Totally Not OEP]

When has America done this before?

I can't recall assassinating an official off the top of my head, but we kidnapped Noriega.

Hand in Mohammad Mosaddegh's removal in 1953 and Diem in 1963, off the top of my head.

Indeed. We sunk their navy and accidentally shot down an airliner. And yet they still could not respond with much.

Oh yes, they are limited unless they get the likes of Russia to help somehow. But I saw someone ninja'd me though

I suspect they'll try to come after us in some form though. Not a full blown war of course, but they'll target someone of high ranking.

Nah, admitting it was important as it sends a clear message that the games are done. They just lost a shit ton of face.

Can't wait to die in yet another bullshit imperialist war uwu

Ok yeah have fun with that even though there’s no war

Even if this escalated into a war, you couldn’t call this an imperialist one like Vietnam or Iraq

My predictions War with Iran. Draft brought back. The draft will be completely random and just happen to randomly send young registered Democrats to war in Iran just before the election.

[Ifreann]

It's starting an open war because you openly killed a high ranking member of their government.

Except it is not clear we openly did. We have not admitted to it that I have heard.
And they cannot respond with open conventional attacks.

Yeah, sure, nobody knows who it was.

Probably they will try. But our top military and political leaders are not reckless enough to end up in such a vulnerable situation. This guy got arrogant and incredibly stupid.

Driving around Iraq in a poorly protected vehicle like he owned the place.

I was summoned by Aureum, I came as quick as I could.

>Iran, via the Quds Force which Soleimani led, funnels weapons and arms to American enemies throughout the Iraq War, killing and wounding thousands of American soldiers, sponsors terrorist orgs throughout the ME, recently killed an American contractor and sanctioned a siege of the American embassy in Baghdad which could have ended horribly
>America finally has enough of this and kills the guy responsible for a lot of this

Look at who you're talking to.

Well now we blew that.

But had we just said nothing everyone would know, but not be able to prove it.
Which is the best. Works great for Russia.

I am already a vet and a member of the Trump Cabinet so I am safe. Really busy right now got to work on this proposal for bringing back the draft in the event of the Iranian war for the President.

He's likely have done this before and we haven't fully noticed though I do agree that this was rather dumb of him to do. Then again, it was only in 2018 that we classified the Revolutionary Guard as a Terrorist Organization so, I suspect we'll label it as "killing a terrorist" basically.

I wonder how Paleoconservative Trump lovers are going to respond to this....
