[QUOTE=doonbugie2;34276591]US Stages full land invasion of Iran. Iran launches nuke and destroys million strong force. Iran declares invasion of US by 2020.[/QUOTE] That implies the US would land a million troops in Iran and not just bomb them to fuck like Iraq before the occupation.
Watch out for their antimatter, dark matter, and matter based space weapons guys!
i'm pretty sure it couldn't i'm not all that sure on how USA works but i'm sure they don't just leave aircraft carriers ON THEIR OWN there will be at least another 12 around it protecting it including huge warships and subs USA would blow any hostile threat out of the water before it left the docks -edit- ok i phrased that badly, i'm just saying USA would protect it's ships well enough that no other hostile threat would be able to attack

Part of the reason why the U.S. is so sunk financially, is that we blow [I]so[/I] much money on our defense. U.S. military spending is equal to more than half of the rest of the world's next highest spending amounts combined. So yes the U.S. is struggling economically, but there is one thing they won't skimp on, and that is military. They could engage in a full-scale war with Iran. Not saying it won't be devastating, but they could.

The US is gonna love this. It's just a matter of time before they attack Iran and justify it with something minor such as this statement.
War with the US is inevitable if your country starts with 'Ir' Ireland, we're coming for you next!

[QUOTE=Swebonny;34276558]US borrowed the Swedish diesel-electric Gotland submarine in 2007 just because it was very silent.

God dammit Iran is going to cause World War 3. If we attack Iran either by our own whim or they attack us, the Russians will get involved as they have already said that if Iran is to fall, they'd view it as a National Security risk and take "appropriate action" to correct it. Everyone sit the fuck down and stop squawking at each other.
Of course there will be bigger casualties than Iraq if god forbid this happens but I think some people here are underestimating the US military just because it's the US. Our defense budget is more than the top 5 countries(not including US) defense budget combined I believe if I read this one article correctly. Irans country has like 0 experience compared to the US military which really makes the military. Having people who know what to do and are calm when there are bullets and explosions all around them. Nevertheless, a war would be devasting for both sides and most likely the world.

Russia will not go to war with the United States over Iran.
Can you people stop reading red dawn and be realistic for one goddamn picosecond Iran would lose in the end. The current power of iran is ground, something the US loves to bomb. Air assets are no match, sea vessels are the only thing that might pose a threat, considering the message they just posted. Even if they DID sink a carrier, hell would be unleased upon them. The US military machine was designed to fight a nation 30 times it's size and power, they would win. Fast is another word, but they would win. How can you even THINK that Iran poses an actual military threat, the only thing that's keeping them alive right now are the nukes they have. And for exactly that reason, US isn't going to attack them. Unless they disable all of them, somehow. Which is also not going to happen as it would make the rest of the world throw a massive fit.
I had a dream a couple days ago, relative to the nuke scene sarah connor sees in her dreams, except the nukes were launched by Iran. Suddenly Iran gets nukes and their balls drop.
[QUOTE=Marbalo;34276545]inb4 people overestimate the american military. just because you spend so fucking much on it doesn't mean you'd be completely safe from any sort of attack ever. Iran is not as primitive as you think and nevertheless a full scale war would result in huge casualties on both sides.[/QUOTE] Yes that worked so well for Iraq didn't it
[QUOTE=scout1;34277581]Yes that worked so well for Iraq didn't it[/QUOTE] According to Wikipedia the initial invasion had about 139 US (+ 33 UK) troops killed and 30,000 Iraqi combatants killed.
