Oh come on

They have improved so greatly a war that was supposed to be a done deal against mere shitholes is still ongoing since almost 20 fucking years now, with no end in sight

It's not only a matter of tech, OBVIOUSLY, never has been, look at vietnam they had barely any tech, no tanks, no navy, no bombers, no jets, no artillery

We are waging asymetrical wars on their turf, allo? Rings any bells? https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d7/British_old_infantry_uniforms.jpg

Iran is also extremely mountainous. We are still stuck in Afghanistan, same terrain only Iran actually has a more up to date weapons and shit.

lol

Have you ever been to Vietnam and its huge jungles? I don't think so, otherwise you would know all these young U.S. soldiers that were dragged in weren't trained to fight in such places (intense heat, crazy humidity, disease carrying mosquitoes, snakes, spiders...).

Natives on the other hand had a massive advantage.

And that's exactly what I'm pointing to

They have time on their side, to begin with, "you" don't

How long can you afford a war effort over there? Eternally?

Look at afghanistan, they are even more backward and retarded

Well, we all know how this will end

The US will have to leave, and when they leave, what's going to happen?

Well, the more things change, the more they stay the same...

...

The US didn't defeat the soviet union with guns, with conventional "kinetic" war

The US defeated the soviet union by flooding the energy market with cheap oil and gas, and by supplying mujahideens with manpads

And the soviet union relied almost entirely on oil and gas exports, and they got dragged in an "eternal" poxy war in afghanistan, reverse vietnam if you will

End result? Bankrupcy, total collapse, the rest is history

...

What do you think will happen with boots on the ground in Iran?

What are the chinese and all those who have an interest in making the US fail do?

Highly predictable
