Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi spoke from Tehran in an exclusive interview with “NBC Nightly News” anchor Tom Llamas.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Thursday that his country is ready for a ground invasion by American troops as the war launched by the United States and Israel has quickly spread across the region. He also refused any negotiations with the U.S. and said that Iran had not asked for a ceasefire.
His comments came after the U.S. and Israeli militaries began a sweeping attack on Iran on Saturday, which decimated its military defenses and killed its top authority, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
I think this war is as dumb and pointless as the next person but obviously Iran would say this. It’s not like they’re going to publicly broadcast to the world how weak they are and that they absolutely could not hold off an American ground invasion
Release the Epstein files and remove Israel’s leverage
Is there a country they invaded that wasn’t able to counter their ground assault? All Americans have is their planes and bombs, they can’t win a ground invasion.
Operation Iraqi freedom ended in a route so successful that the tanks had to stop to allow logistics to catch up. They went from initial invasion to Baghdad falling within like 20 days.
Also the Americans were pretty pivotal in the D-Day landings that ended up with the liberation of Europe.
They also pushed the North Koreans from the Pusan Perimeter in the south east pretty much all the way back to the Chinese border during the Korean war after the North Koreans invaded the south. Before the Chinese got involved of course and pushed the Americans back down to the 38th parallel at obscene expense.
There’s probably more
Iraq - had a lot of help from allies
D-day - had a lot of help from allies
Korea - had a lot of help from alliesNow do all the wars where the USA got their ass kicked. Especially the ones they fought by themselves. Americans are extremely bad at wars - historical fact.
Iraq - had a lot of help from allies
if 75% of the invading force is American, you can just say you were invaded by Americans
The Americans turned the tide of the Korean war single handedly. the only other ones fighting on their side were the south koreans who had just been pushed all the way down to the south east. Before china turned the tide back again of course.
The Americans comprised about half of the D-Day troops, fighting alongside the British (and a smaller canadian force) whos expeditionary force had been pushed back to Dunkirk before evacuating the continent entirely. The Americans also turned the tide here as much as i, a brit, hates to admit it
The wars where we have only been very successful at are the ones that take place in the Americas itself or fighting each other lol.
Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t air dominance the US military’s strong suit?
It’s not like he’d say anything else?
The Iranian military will lose to the US forces, but the ensuing partisan war will kick the Amerikans square in the nutsack. WTF, what about the Israelis, they should lead the charge and be first ones storming the beaches.
Lmao sure.
Seriously though. Even if the US military gets a foothold in Iran, they’re still never going to be able to supply enough forces to overrun a mountainous desert twice the size of Texas with 90 million inhabitants. Afghanistan is a piece of cake by comparison, and the combined forces of NATO failed to effect regime change there. Iran is a fucking fortress. America will lose, again, if they try to march on it. And that’s possibly what Netenyahu wants to see.

Only America could lose back to back wars in both of Iran’s neighbors and think they are invincible.
A land war against Iran would likely go like worse than Afghanistan, Iran has a trained paramilitary that is at a minimum 3 or 4 times the size the Taliban was at the peak of the war in Afghanistan, plus they have likely been trained based on the success of the Afghanistan.
Not only that, but only the most corrupt officials are going to be willing to run the puppet state, given it’s just a matter of time until the regime collapses and is replacing by something worse (and all it’s public figures are forced to flee or die).
Like sure the US could technically win a war, but by any reasonable definition the war won’t end until they leave in defeat.
You’re absolutely correct and if you haven’t already, you should read Cyclonopedia by Reza Negarestani, which predicts this to a T
And then our glorious soldiers defeated their barbaric warriors and that was our victory in the middle east
