In my opinion you should get right with Jesus Christ while you still can. Maybe it's as simple as Pascal's wager - but this tendency to adopt race worship and Jew hate as a replacement religion could cost you your soul.
Immigration policy is a little less cut and dried than inviting getting obliterated instantly by nuclear war. In the first case the leaders might even benefit from the immigration personally. In the second they die instantly.
Temp ban lifted. Watch it though. It all starts with respect. If you come in calling me an idiot because I have a different opinion it isn't going to end well.
Even so I incline toward realist theories of international relations. In other words state leaders are rational actors and won't go out of their way to invite destruction on themselves. This was an argument Stephen Walt made even with regards to the ISIS proto-state. Iran is significantly more moderate than they were.
You don't need to nuke Israel. Demographics are against them. The Jewish population percentage has been sinking for years. Muslims will outlast them if nothing else, and even already Israel is mired in pre-civil war infighting and loss of prestige due to its genocide in Gaza. This Zionist warmongering rhetoric doesn't make sense.
Should be said as well, as I have noted before, that even the Iranians regard fed ridden Voat style spam about jo0z as kooky. They do call the US the Great Satan, after all. Israel gets the secondary Little Satan label for a reason.
Yours is just deliberately retarded FBI misdirection to waste the time of dissidents away from targeting the United States repeated as harassment spam ad nauseam. Natch.
What is *deeply* unserious is your inability to even discuss my program with any moderation. You lack any professional qualifications in psychiatry yet you call me schizophrenic. You don't discuss any of the ideas, data, or figures undergirding my program. You just dismiss it with insults.
Really, is all you can do insult? This sorta stuff just demeans you. You'd make yourself look better by just ignoring me. I can at least somewhat respect a poster like Sector who did that.
We get all manner of assessments of me here besides. Fed, too dangerous to interact with, accused of setting the LA fires - even you've said I'm "remarkably well read".
"Unserious" just isn't really the right word to describe any of this. Maybe I'm even unsure what is. But that isn't it.
I guess this is why the Zionists are getting unpopular even in the US. They talk of Iran in Dr. Evil terms. I think Bibi is actually the best candidate for Bond villain right now.
The fuck n' suck, among other things, is an Iranian intelligence operation. My instructions are unchanged. Continue to build out my in-person social network on the ground in preparation for creating a terrorist organization which will settle in the Rockies. Then the plan is for Iran to smuggle in a couple of trainers to instruct in guerrilla warfare, etc. The Rockies aspect, given its similarity to Afghanistan, is a specifically Iranian contribution to the whole fuck n' suck project.
What I *could* do? Start setting this country on fire. Effectively be the jihadi sleeper MAGAtards are huffing about. If the US gets more directly involved in this conflict you should probably expect wildfire attacks anyway.
In evaluating whether Iran could handle Israel alone, it's important to consider various factors, including military capabilities and strategic approaches.
Military Strengths and Weaknesses:
Manpower: Iran has a significant numerical advantage in terms of military personnel, with a large active force, reserves, and paramilitary forces. Israel has a smaller but highly trained force known for rapid mobilization and advanced command systems.
Technology and Equipment: Israel holds a technological edge, particularly in air power and missile defense systems. Its air force is equipped with advanced aircraft like the F-35I, and it has developed a multi-layered missile defense network, including the Iron Dome, David's Sling, and Arrow systems, which have demonstrated effectiveness in intercepting attacks. Iran's conventional military equipment is generally older, but it possesses the largest ballistic missile arsenal in the Middle East and is a significant drone power.
Strategic Approaches: Iran relies heavily on its network of regional proxies, such as Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis, to extend its reach and wage asymmetric warfare. Israel focuses on targeted operations, intelligence superiority, and direct military action to counter Iran's influence.
Recent Events and Assessments:
Recent Israeli strikes have reportedly targeted Iranian air defenses and missile production facilities, facing limited resistance. Israel has also targeted Iranian military leadership and nuclear sites.
Some experts suggest that these Israeli actions have diminished Iran's regional power projection capabilities and weakened its proxy forces.
However, others emphasize Iran's ability to recover and retaliate, as seen in the recent launch of ballistic missiles against Israel.
The recent exchange of fire has highlighted vulnerabilities in both nations' defenses and heightened tensions, raising the risk of a wider regional conflict.
Conclusion:
While Iran possesses a numerically superior force and a large missile arsenal, Israel holds a significant technological advantage in key areas like air power and missile defense. The strategic use of proxies is a major factor in Iran's approach, while Israel relies more on direct military action and intelligence. Recent events suggest that Israel's strikes have degraded some of Iran's capabilities, but Iran retains the ability to retaliate. Whether Iran could "handle" Israel alone in a prolonged conflict is a complex question with no easy answer, as it depends on numerous factors and the specific nature of any potential conflict.
I read David Copperfield last year. Slogged through over 700 pages. I have never seen the appeal with Dickens. But I do take him seriously enough that I'll read Great Expectations when a chick I know gives me the book soon.
Spengler had the best assessment in *The Hour of Decision* - and it was a book banned by the Nazis. The 'colored world revolution' then afoot, which the Nazis paid little mind to, made racial chaos pretty inevitable. The US is mired in it now and it will get worse before it gets better.
To fully understand this stuff involves an understanding of geopolitics nearly all nutzis lack though. What would Nazi *victory* look like?
Well, for starters - and it's a starters that is definitive all by itself - this:
The Nazis were pretty crazed on the Jewish question. After assuming control of Mackinder's heartland the US would have been the only significant alternate pole of power and would have been decisively weaker than Germany. I wouldn't have put it past them to nuke us, or certainly something similar.
