are approaching the gulf area. If and only if, that is true, it means only a thing...that the iranian capacity to employ missiles and drones is over or close to be over and the next step 

 

of this war is going to be fought on the ground. Hormuz should be freed quickly and the bottom in the stock market should be in.

US military needs 7 to 10 days more of round the clock bombing of targets in Iran. That will soften up resistance. This is brand new experience for Iran. It has never been pummelled like this before.

Even with the full backing of the US, Saddam Hussein was not able to beat the Iranians in 8 years. 

This war can last longer than we assume, all financed by debt. Again I can only repeat, look at the rates and the private credit markets.

OK, but here it's the US and Israel that are directly involved, not the weak Iraqi army.

However Europe has no balls. Depending on me, it would have already sent to the gulf area all of its fleets and would have started bombing all the iranian sites that are launching drones on commercial ships at Hormuz. 

 

Depending on me we would use an iron hand on those fanatic muslim idiots that constitute the government of iran and would cancel them from the Earth's surface, despite what our beloved leftists with their pro-pal flags 

 

think of this whole thing. Go figure if they had the atomic bomb, they would use it immediately, in the name of their phrophet obviously.

US was neutral. The Iranian army was ex-Shah's Army. ISIS had a field day fighting them.

During the 1980–1988 Iran-Iraq War, the United States maintained a policy of "tilt" toward Iraq, providing billions in economic aid, intelligence, and dual-use technology to prevent an Iranian victory. The US aimed to contain Iran's Islamic revolution, supporting Saddam Hussein despite knowing he used chemical weapons.

Also timeline of ISIS:

ISIS is a extremist group founded in 2004 as Al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI) by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. It emerged during the Iraq insurgency, focusing on establishing Sunni control and attacking Shiite Muslims. It evolved through several names, officially becoming ISIS in 2013 and declaring a caliphate in 2014 under Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

 

Nobody had a field day back then. I know Iranis fighting in this war. They hated Khomeini but they were willing to die for their country. Tough as nails.

The stories they had about poison gas attacks are horrific. Just endless suffering for 8 long years. Nobody came out as a winner.

Most Iranis want to get rid of their current regime. I just hope the transition works out without too much suffering.

Big difference between Iraqi army who never won any wars in 100 years, and Israel army who has never lost a war.
Mossad is the best spy agency in the world.
