The Armchair Generals thread - How would you fight the Iranians

[frogwoman]

The next war should be against Colombia. We can invade and then there will be drugs for everyone!

Or maybe Norway. I think there's oil there, and there are hardly any people, so it should be a piece of cake!

 

[mauvais]

Nah, I'm sick of fighting wars in the Middle East and Asia, there are too many. I mean, Palestine, Lebanon, Iraq, Afghanistan...come on, some orignality is needed here! Africa's a bit boring because nobody really fights back, and the Pacific is a bit rubbish because there aren't many people, except in Australia, but it's a bit dry there and there are too many spiders. So we've got two choices really, Europe and South America

Or in SPACE. We could fight Argentina in SPACE.

 

[frogwoman]

Maybe there's an old disused British television satellite they've got their eyes on ...

 

[isitme]

Underground would be cool

Or in SPACE. We could fight Argentina in SPACE.

Argentina would have some logistical problems fieldin Adeptus Astarte.

 

[frogwoman]

Or in SPACE. We could fight Argentina in SPACE.

Failing that of course, we could always try and make it 3-0 with Germany.

 

[frogwoman]

Underground would be cool

Yeah! It would be cool if there were so many explosions that it blasted out the earth's core and it became hollow, and then there could be a showdown between Mel Gibson and Osama bin Laden in the centre of the earth ...

First of all I'm not a screaming nutter who wants to turn Tehran into a pool of glowing radioactive glass.

But it is looking like the loonspuds of Iran are going to find themselves at the sharp end of an attack at some point in the near future.

So if push came to shove how would YOU do it.

My opinion is it can't be done by air power alone, it is going to need boots on the ground but how to attack. Do we arm the Kurds and point them in the right direction, attack from Iraqi territory, mass bombardment with missles at strategic sites from carriers in the ocean, land attack by Allied troops across the Iraqi border. There are options but which woudl you do to make a successful regime change with minimal civilian casualties amongst the long suffering Iranian people?

You are quite the idiot, aren't you?

 

[tangentlama]

To garf. No its not blood lust its accepting that there is a whole lot of big stuff that I cannot change so I might as well just keep my head down and try to do personal good where I can. The Iranians do scare the fucking willies out of me though but all the Iranians I've met (escaped fron Khomeni) have been sound people.

Not wanting to air dirty laundry you are right I still havn't resolved the issues from my past.

I used to be a lefty but now I'm lost.

Some of my family are Iranian and some Israeli.

You cannot bring about change by bombing the fuck out of a country for the idiocy of a few of it's political and religious leaders.

And why the interest in Iran? Why not plan an assault on Southern USA Militant Christians? They want a theocracy. They want the church to control all state assets. Their people are encouraged to attack Jews so they'll ingather to Israel and they also want Israel and Iran to go to war over nuclear reactors that the French among others sold to Iran but don't want them to start using.

Why aren't you after the French government (and others) for setting up the Iranians with a reactor that they oppose them using?

Why aren't you after the US government for arming Iran to fight Iraq, or for arming Saddham to bomb the Kurds (and so on, and so on)?

Why are you - a newly converted Jew who picks and choose what mitzvah he follow - so weak and perverted that you join in with this crazy warmongering and join with our enemies (Militant Dispensationalist Christian Zionists and other antisemitic European Christians) in an attempt to separate Jews from their historic allies by chanting for Israel and Iran to war with each other?

Didn't you learn anything in Jewschool?

 

[tangentlama]

this thread is pretty poor form tbh

It is a dreadful thread.

 

[tangentlama]

Watch out, Ahmedinejad!

Nononono - flick your discarded pistachio shells at his bare feet *ouch*
This is the only way for a targeted attack to work which save the good Iranian and Israeli people who suffer their idiot leaders and leaders-in-waiting no less than we suffer our own politicos.

(I think really is best not to play along with this stupid, stupid thread made by a very confused person).

 

[tangentlama]

Its going to happen at some point. The question is how to attack the govt of Iran without killing too many civilians?

Titbayeshu lakhem!

 

[tangentlama]

without killing too many civ... oh my god, you've been brain-washed by neocons and this thread is some sort of cry for help!

He is a sick, sick boy - even chicken soup cannot cure him.

Slovenia has nuclear power plants. It's the most developed country in Eastern Europe after the Czech Republic, so it might present a threat, erm, I don't know...umm, some time, in...the future, umm, yeah. Why don't we bomb them? One of the power plants leaked the other day, so whatever goes wrong, it won't really make much of a difference if they're going to blow up anyway. Think about how cool the explosions would be. They're quite near Serbia so it would just be like bombing Serbia all over again but without the mad dictator killing his own citizens. We'd be able to kill them all ourselves, so that's all right!

Bring it on

(joking btw)

We could vapourise Buenos Aires with LASERS! Wouldn't that be awesome? And then we could do the same to the rest of South America, and then parachute down and nick all their drugs

 

[tangentlama]

It's not funny.

 

[max_freakout]

bombıng a nuclear power plant = the end of lıfe on thıs planet

 

[frogwoman]

It's not funny.

You're right. It's not fucking funny at all.

I'm doing it on purpose.

Sorry KBJ but you are well out of order here.

Don't talk about war like this.

I'll stop now.

Sado-masochist in Jewish-conversion shocker
A Sado-masochist with selective morals and a narcissistic victim-complex recently converted to Judaism in order to feel more powerful by defending the collective victims of a 2,000 year-long persecution by rallying calls for Israel to war with Iran.

Heeb Magazine caught up with Keyboard Jokey in his cellar, restrained by leather ties and wearing a gimp-suit whilst being lightly beaten with a well-oiled bicycle chain purported to be stolen from Mayor Boris Johnson's favourite mode of transport (which no doubt poorer Londoner's will be forced to resort to since the cancelling of the Venezuelan oil-for-traffic-management deal).


Heeb: I hear you've now converted to Judaism. Are you mitzvah observant?

KBJ: Not really. As long as I'm publicly seen to have a go at the enemies of right-wing Zionism and push pro-Likud policies, it looks like I'm Jewish to those who don't know any better.

Heeb: But neither G-d nor the Chief Rabbi are fooled by your self-declared defender-of-Israel stance, right?

KBJ: G-d? What's G-d got to do with it? I'm looking to move to Israel because the LGBT in Britain is shit compared to Tel Aviv (plus, I've been on the circuit for years and the novelty has worn off). Even better, I can use the 'antisemite' tag on anyone who has a go at me for: having multiple partners; enjoying putting unusual objects up my anus; and of course, surreptiously promoting US neo-con/Likud policies onto a naive and unsuspecting audience.

Heeb: So basically you chose your socio-religious identity based on pre-existing feelings of victimisation and identification with Jews as victims, rather than any feeling any deep attachment to Judaism as a spiritual system and ancient tradition?

KBJ: Well, my main polyamorous partner happens to be Jewish, so I thought it would be cool to get married in a Synagogue, although we both intend to remain faithful to our other polyamorous partners....

Heeb: You do realise that conversion to Judaism isn't something to be taken lightly, don't you?

KBJ: .oO(continues his S&M fantasy about a having a threesome in a shadowy corner of the Old City while being stoned by Haredim for licentious behaviour on Shabbos)

India and Pakistan was a special situation there you had two nations who were at the same level of development with their weapons.

Besides that there is stuff going on preventing them from developing their weapons any further.

You are malinformed - as usual

A Congressional Research Service report (PDF) on the agreement states, "There are no measures in this global partnership to restrain India's nuclear weapons program."

Pakistan is already a proliferation risk: Pakistani nuclear scientist A.Q. Khan's illicit nuclear network, revealed in 2004, shocked the world with its brazen trade of nuclear technology. Some experts worry the U.S.-India deal could prompt Pakistan to go elsewhere for similar terms.
