    Is this brics -boys luring usa into a trap? I saw news about this where someone estimated that war with Iran could “last several weeks” i think this would be more like russias 3-day special operation in Ukraine rather than Maduro’s kidnapping

      Why would a group of countries that includes Iran try to get the US to bomb Iran? Is it perhaps more likely that the country which bombed it 6 months ago, whose leader Trump met with last week, would like it bombed? The country that’s a major weapons importer from the US?

        Yes i know israel wants to get rid of iran. You think there can’t be any other countries or reasons to benefit from a war in iran, just a single one?

      Why? USA and Iran don’t have any common borders, so the war is very easy to control: it will be running as long as the USA will be willing to bomb Iran. The quality of Iranian AA was demonstrated during the previous “war”.

      What can Iran possibly do to harm the USA?

        Are you seriously asking, what downsides does a war have? The previous “war” wasnt “war” at least on usa’s side. A war in iran would mess with supply chains, tie usa forces and equipment to iran (which most likely costs pretty much) and im fairly certain they would be able to do at least some harm in middle east and probably by some terrorist attacks in usa also. But maybe im wrong and almighty usa would just be able to do whatever they want ?

          I don’t expect this “war” to be “war” either. Yes, the USA can do mostly as they please and nobody would dare to say anything.

            Usa strikes iran, iran strikes usa aircraft carriers, boats, military bases, whatever and actually kills some usa’s soldiers unlike their “retaliation” last time. I dont think they can just pull back and go home after that and thats why i think this time it would be war. Im not talking about anyone else saying usa could or couldn’t do something, what i meant was you think usa can just do anything and be successful? As in i think attacking Iran isn’t as simple as going to Venezuela

              And? Ok, USA loses 2 patrol ships and 30 soldiers. What next? It is war? Look at Ukrainian numbers to see what the war is.
              USA starts bombing Iran from distance. What is “isn’t as simple as going to Venezuela” here?

              I don’t see anything serious that Iran can do in this situation.
