[QUOTE=BusterBluth;22137352]The civilian population of northern vietnam was not the target of many of these bombing raids but due to the nature of the nva and vietcong civilian deaths where unavoidable.

[QUOTE=Uberman77883;22137457]If we invade Iran, at least the civilians would support us. Considering they are still rioting, hell, give it a year and there may be a full blown revolution.

Actually, no. They probably wouldn't support us if we invaded, since they've had pretty bad experiences with US intervention.

is this the same website that gasped when the US sent some large bombs/munitions to some island rearming base, thinking they were "bunker buster bombs" intended for Iran's nuclear program, because they seem to have a knack for grossly overreacting to routine missions like this.

There was violence against civilians during the big protests in June and December, but it's died down for the most part.

Iran's military is pretty big, probably the largest in the middle east other than maybe egypt, most of their equipment is old soviet junk though.
