Iranian Foreign & Resistance Front Strategy & Operations

[925boy]

If there is no air supremacy or denying enemy air supremacy in meaningful way there is no military meaningful resistance in contemporary world,

Really?
1. Hezbollah didnt control its airspace and Israel did, but Hezbollah damaged Israel and didnt lose to it.
2. Russian air force was dominating Syria's airspace for Syrian troops, and SAA forces still gave up.

It really works the opposite- whichever side cannot dominate on the ground is the ultimate loser.

if you still want to "resist" then choose your allies more rationally those one who can contribute not ones that are burden. Iran made both mistakes.

Hmm..

What are the chances of copycat (of Syria) operations in Iran?

There are some chances, around 0.001%, but the prince is too old for new career, so he will miss the chance... too bad...

For revolution you should have clear alternative, there is not something like that in Iran, and big coalition of all centers of power, here maybe some of them is not so happy, but not even close to rise revolution...

I would like to ask a purely military question without ideology or political thought.
Do you really think you can take on an opponent that has so easily destroyed Lebanon and Syria without nuclear weapons?
What if hundreds of thousands of mujahidin hordes, highly armed by Israel and Turkey, pour in from the borders of Baluchistan, Azerbaijan, Turkey, Kurdistan and Kuwait, and at the same time the US military and Israeli, Saudi and UAE air forces start bombing them?
Do you really believe that you can fight unlike Syria?
Iran's borders are too long, and the conditions are far worse than Syria's, as all of Iran's borders except Iraq are surrounded by enemies.
It is absolutely impossible for Iran to withstand a simultaneous invasion operation from multiple directions like the one Syria has suffered this time.

Not by the prince, but by a conglomerate of ragtag 'revolutionaries' like what happened in Syria. May be with tacit support from Saudi Arabia, Turkey, U.S., Israel et. al.

Lol, half of the world in action on Iran...for Saudis now biggest threat is Israel, that openly declared territorial aspirations to their land, Turkey will soon be in the same position.... and turkish-kurdish coalition is very natural and based on love and mutual respect... UAE could fight only with press media declarations and Azerbaijan could be reintegrated in the historical homeland...

But Kuwait...let's be honest, no one could beat them in open fight, so if Kuwait decides to "deal" with Iran, that's it...I can't give false hope to Iranians, it would be best to capitulate, immediately, and to ask for peace...

This 4 you named will have far more internal struggle, but also between them, so they are not in good shape to play risiko...

Turks are with everyone, and against everyone. As always !

I think they are NATO's trojan horses in the Islamic and Middle East region's organizations and activities. Anybody on this forums saying Turkey should be afraid of Israel or that Turkey is fighting against Israeli interests, is a zyonneest with bad make up- they can't explain and correlate Turkey's actions to its public comments- its contradictory, so its playing a game. That Iranian parliamentarian who said Iran should go on an anti-Turk campaign, is kind of right, IMO.

I'm worried this Syria situation will have ripple effects in the region....one will be towards creating tensions in the Persian gulf or/and Arabian sea next to it.

What has Iran gained from this "resistance for Palestine (Arabs)"? It gained nothing and have suffered from decades long sanctions and isolation. We bore the brunt for their liberation and fought their battles.

And they turned around and spat on us as soon as their sectarian brothers showed up. We don't need to fight the west for Palestine or for any Arabs. We did so because it was a moral obligation however it's not so anymore since the subjugated don't want us to fight for them

Even if we britzkrieked into Tel Aviv they still wouldn't accept us as liberators. So why is it that our people shud suffer for them. We fought enuf for them and our people deserve the luxury to be able build for ourselves. We will be safe and nobody will invade Iran cuz they can't. But they will invade and destroy all the Arabs.

So Iran did the right thing letting Syria drown. Fight for yourselves. We did enuf for ungrateful traitors. Id go on and say that Iran shud make a robust deal with the west and be at peace. Improve the economy, reap the rewards for decades of struggle

That's why I want to see development of tactical nuclear and chemical weapons.

Al-Turkiya is just like Pakistan and did all this under duress. Iran should just step away from all this and now let all these idiots fight it out amongst themselves. They'll be so sorry they did this and all the happy taxi driver migrants here supporting Al-Qaeda will get deported from the west down the road.

It'll be a train wreck just like Libya and Afghanistan soon just watch.

Let's say you're right about "Al-Turkiya" and Pakistan. Iran is "stepping away," otherwise known as backing down, under duress but duress of a different sort. Iran is backing down due to being pounded into submission - famous words of Prof Marandi. Pakistan did not fold due to military pressure from the Americans or Indians who have tried it for years. At least the idiots are fighting Iran didn't even do that.

Have we been under sanctions 45 years like them? Do you think we can survive 45 years under sanctions like they have?

Excuses are useless. I can do that too: Does Pakistan have one the largest oil/gas reserves in the world? Does Iran have psychotic Hindutva on its border? ...

Bhai yous on drugs if you believe we’re even remotely sovereign. Our whole apparatus on IMF life support no? Sawdi Judea also has the largest oil reserves. The US runs them like a toady no?

Indians can walk into our country tomorrow and I bet you money nobody will put up a fight.

We’ve been thru this before in 1971 no?

I already said let's suppose you're right about Pakistan's sovereignty being compromised due to financial situation. Let's say you're right about Saudis too. This thread is about Iran and Iran put up no fight at all. Honestly I wonder if more Russian soldiers died in Syria than Iranians. Iran huffed "we will blockade strait of Hormuz" and "we will blow up Gulf oil facilities" and "we will flatten "Tel-aviv""...I believed them. But after Haniyeh killed in Tehran, Nasrallah murdered, Yahud planes killed Iranian soldiers inside Iran what did Iran do?

Please get over 1971. Let's not forget Abhinandan who came for some fantastic tea and was escorted off property. His crime was killing a crow.
