There are now MANY cargo planes from Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE flying to Rzeszów airport near Ukraine border just to get some antidrone protection from Ukraine.
Why they didnt think about that BEFORE the war?

You did not read what I said. Israel and US can take out all Iranian oil and electric facilities in 1 day effectively reducing it to stone age. Without any boots on the ground.
I read what you said, and I agree that US and Israeli strikes can reduce Iran to dust, but Trump's goal is regime change; regime change won't be possible without boots on the ground.

Listen to what he says after 14:45... He says that Iran was close to having its own revolution, but the bombing campaign has made that very unlikely and that the US has pretty much guaranteed that Iran will remain a theocracy for some time. Makes you think.

That doesn't win them the war, and fucks the world economy after the retaliation.

Probably because Ukraine needs those men more and they weren't on offer then. But Ukraine needs all the goodwill it can get so they are on offer when they are desperately needed.

Macgregor? Seriously? This guy who predicted Russia victory over Ukraine in 10 days? Who claimed that 1/3 of Tel Aviv is destroyed and other nonsense?

There's a lot of bullsh*t analysis out there that are exaggerated and often the people sharing them are on a payroll. But I do agree with him that the by bombing Iran the chances of a revolution are slim to none. Had Iran been left alone for another year the regime could've fallen by itself. This campaign just emboldens and legitimizes them, even if the country turns to rubble.

That said, would a secular Iran really be good for Israel or Turkiye in the long run? You can control them for 5-10 years, but what would happen when they seek their own ambitions? If they quickly developed as a secular nation that would be a rival much worse than the current regime that has gotten itself into this situation. The current self-destructive Islamist regime is perhaps best kept weakened and in place for the long run.

I wonder what has happened to the Iranian footballers who went back to Iran from Australia (if their plane has arrived yet).

They're mostly adults and they have an army actually.

BTW I don't think Trump wants a regime change. He just wants to make some deal. That's why he is not attacking their main assets, to leave it as negotiation card.

Kharg Island has an area of around 20 sq km. If the US were to put boots anywhere on Iranian soil, this would the place to put them, wouldn't it?

If this island is occupied, it will put an end to Iran's oil and gas trade. And that would be catastrophic for them, already in a chronic economic crisis. They claim that 90% of all necessary infrastructure is located there. Incidentally, the Americans once dealt a serious blow to Kharg Island during the Iran-Iraq War, but they didn't occupy it then. At least then, they didn't openly violate international law, which they largely established themselves.
Yes, this is Iran's weakest point, which the US could occupy.

What will the cost be if they create a modern Ottoman Empire with nuclear weapons? They already expect countries around them to ask them permission to do anything inside their own territory, not to mention they want to take at least half of other countries' land and water as their own.
We do look back at what Turks have done through history.
Mate, if you are going to make unsubstantiated claims without any evidence to support it, then you should refrain from posting here.
What is wrong with you Greeks? What is this Turkish phobia you have? You must be born with anti Turkish genes from get go. Why do you have to live in the past? Turkiye do not have any aspirations about expansion. We want to live in peace with our neighbours through mutual respect.

I have checked your posts over last 14 months. 90% of it revolves around extreme anti Turkish sentiment. Nothing constructive.

This is your last public warning. Either get your act together or leave.

Is that so? You don't think that countries will look back at what happened in Iran and conclude that the cost was greater than the benefit?
As far as my info goes, Trump himself didnt want to go to war with Iran since not only was it costly but the future implications was just way too much and unpredictable to go on with such a risky gamble ; in the first stages of this fiasco, none of the US administration or the democrats opposition wanted to go to war; however, Natenyahu had another plans! In just 7 visits to Trump that co-incided with the release of Epstein files (the portions that was particularly focused on Trump), Natenyahu managed to control the course of the US to fit his satanic, demented, beliefs and whims.

If anything, the only thing history will remember is how the Western empire cant say no to a small nation on the other side of the globe just because all of its leaders and politicans are compromised pedophiles that was caught in the act by Israeli sex rings and child trafficking organisations

The whole region is on fire just because Natenyahu wants it to be so! And if anyone dares to refuse, all their dark secrets are getting revealed from cannibalism, child trafficking, pedophilia, and prostitution etc....
