Iran Simulates US Army Weaknesses
What the Iranians fail to understand is that Iran is NOT Iraq and Iran is NOT Afghanistan. If we go in, its for the KILL.
Anyone have that running total of Iranians we have captured and or killed in Iraq? Haha.

A senior Iranian commander says the successful simulation of the US Army’s combat style has enabled the IRGC to find their weaknesses.
Deputy Chief of Staff of Iran’s Armed Forces Brigadier General Mohammad Zolqadr said Sunday that the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps is fully capable of countering US tactics.
“During the US invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq, the American army’s combat methods, its weaknesses and strong points, and its capabilities have been fully monitored,” said the Iranian general.
The remarks come shortly after Brigadier General Abdul-Rahim Mousavi said on Friday that Iran has wrapped up three secret military drills over the past two months aimed at strengthening the country’s defensive prowess.
The US and Israel have long threatened to launch military strikes on nuclear facilities in Iran should the country continue its uranium enrichment program.
Despite the UN nuclear watchdog’s confirmation that enriched uranium in Iran does not exceed 3 percent, a rate consistent with the construction of a nuclear power plant, Washington and Tel Aviv, alongside their European allies, accuse Iran of pursuing a military nuclear program.
This is while the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) continues to conduct snap inspections of Iranian nuclear sites and has reported that all “declared nuclear material in Iran has been accounted for.”
Iran, a signatory to the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), says that diplomacy is the only acceptable means for clarifying the civilian nature of its nuclear program.
Recent reports have suggested that an armada of US and European naval vessels has been stationed in the Persian Gulf in an unprecedented build-up.
Mainstream media regarded the deployment as an attempt by the Bush administration to wage war on Iran before President George W. Bush leaves office in January 2009.
“The IRGC is now using innovative methods to counter any threat against Iran,” Brig. Gen. Mohammad Zolqadr continued.
He added that should Washington attempt to engage in war with Tehran, the US would not stumble upon ‘orthodox and classic tactics’.
Iran has warned that if the country comes under attack, it would target Israel and 32 US bases in the region and would not hesitate in taking necessary measures to protect its sovereignty- including the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.
The strategically vital strait, between Iran and Oman, is an essential conduit for energy supplies and connects the oil-rich region to free sea. As much as 40 percent of the world’s sea-transited crude oil passes through the waterway.
Iran has recently equipped its navy with high-tech weapons system, capable of targeting any vessel within a range of 300 km (185 miles) from its shores.

Surrender or face total annihilation. And we’re not fucking kidding!
August 25th, 2008 at 3:31 pmIf they could “simulate” American combat tactics, they would adopt them. Only Israel even comes close.
“Caw, caw, bang..fuck, I’m dead” (movie quotes seem to rule my life these days)
August 25th, 2008 at 3:33 pmSounding more and more like Qadaffi, and his “Line of Death” threat…….”cross thees line, I keel you”……….”OK, cross THEES line, I keel you”……………..”OK, cross THEES line, I keel you”(ad-infinitum)
And we all know what happened to him………………..
August 25th, 2008 at 3:51 pmI think our greatest threat would be suicide bombers and IED’s.
August 25th, 2008 at 4:02 pmThey know we will protect civillians, if we can. They know that is a weakness, but that is nothing new. US troops have done a fine job of protecting civillians and whacking scum. Yeah, it’s harder, but our troops are better motivated, that way.
I saw an internal Russian post about the ‘firing’ of the Chechen thugs brought down to Georgia. If this was already noted, over here, ’nuff said, but otherwise, yall should know there is some internal heat in Russia about the assholes they unleashed in Georgia.
August 25th, 2008 at 4:08 pmThey are seriously underestimating our artillery and Navy. This is all posturing, a delaying tactic. They want time to finish their nuclear program.
Even if they had a system that could accurately target our Navy in the water they’d be fools to fire it even once. That’s all it takes for our systems to find and flatten it. This is assuming of course that it’s not already pre-targeted.
August 25th, 2008 at 4:20 pmBaghdad Bob is Back!
August 25th, 2008 at 4:39 pmThey will never know what hit them. It all comes down time on target and it’s fire for effect for about six days.
August 25th, 2008 at 7:34 pmThe idiots think we’re gonna go in there fighting a protracted “boots on the ground” war first?……. HA!
By the time we do go in, We’ll be “Weapons-Free”, and those who haven’t been wiped out with the Air campaign, will be dealt with on the ground.
Weapons free = gloves come off.
August 25th, 2008 at 8:06 pmA mission in Iran would be all about taking down the nuclear facilities, military targets, and infrastructure. No need to send troops in, if anything some costal raids to knock out missle batteries. More of a seal the borders/coast then unleash naval gunfire (I miss the BB)and air sorties.
August 26th, 2008 at 5:32 amWe would have to fight “Messy”
I can say Drezden out loud and mean it!
But the polititcians can’t.
We are just not willing to bash some country back into the stone age without completely rebuilding it later.
Please, please please like us………
What a load!
We should just blockade the straights right now because we can and squeeze the little porker.(see what his rhetoric gets him.)
Regards.
