When it comes to the bloodthirsty ghouls chomping at the bit to invade Iran, I do take some solace in the War Nerd's assertion that an attempt to invade Iran would probably end in a humiliating defeat for the US because all their important shit is on a central plateau surrounded by miles and miles of impassable mountains and the entirety of it is bristling with more missiles than even the US has in its stockpile
He pointed out that Delta Force's attempt to rescue the Tehran hostages had to abort almost immediately because their helicopters got so fucked up by sandstorms and other weather on the approach that 3 were not fit for combat by the time they established a landing. (As they departed one of them crashed into a refueling aircraft and it killed eight of the servicemen. The Ayatollah seized on it for propaganda and declared it divine intervention to protect their new government.)
So they can want to invade Iran all they want but Iran is more than capable of at least making it so fucking expensive that it's not worth it. They've already shown they can control access to the Gulf if push comes to shove and they'd have plenty of support from regional allies.
and backed off.
