Middle East war: Israel vs Iran – Lots of FREAKING OUT – but modern wars are very LAME

I’ve been looking at the big freak out that’s taking place regarding Iran, maybe striking Israel. This is an interesting lesson in how useless modern wars are and how stupid the Mass Media really is. Everyone is rushing around looking extremely serious as if the whole world is on the edge and as if we will all be dying soon when in fact this is a storm in a teacup.

Years ago, I was looking at the Israel vs Iran issue and I even had a Jewish pal in Jerusalem at the time and we discussed this matter from an Israeli point of view.

Firstly, Iran and Israel are 1,700 Km apart. Secondly, Iran is not a high tech country, but it’s very big and insanely difficult to invade. Iran is basically unconquerable. Even the USA is too scared to actually invade it because America will not be able to conquer it without actually nuking it.

The Jews no doubt want to hurt Iran, but they too are limited, but not as limited as Iran. For the Jews, the first prize is to suck America into this conflict which America does not want to be in. No doubt the Jewish attack on the Iranian consulate was deliberate and that is what’s pissing the Iranians off.

The Iranians function using proxy forces in the Middle East and their biggest force is Hezbollah in southern Lebanon, which gives them the ability to strike Israel directly.

The big FREAK OUT however, by the US Govt is that Iran will hit Israel directly. To do this they would use drones and we would see ballistic missiles being used for the first time in an attack on Israel.

But be aware, these ballistic missiles would merely be armed with conventional explosives and they would NOT be nuclear.

Israel has insane amounts of advanced US Technology including patriot systems that are designed to intercept missiles.

Everything that is happening is so hyped up out of all proportion that you would think something big is actually going to happen, but in reality this is much ado about nothing.

Firstly, from a military point of view, it is so ridiculous that we know the dates of the possible attacks. That, by itself, really messes up things for Iran. To attack when the enemy expects you to attack is a bad thing and leads to worse results. The fact that there is a type of date and time limitation on this attack is really silly. If the Iranians were serious, they would actually just stand down and do nothing and strike at a time when Israel does NOT expect it.

Secondly, in 2019, Iranians attacked an oil facility using drones and cruise missiles. Here’s what it looked like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPqLtbQeJj4

The Iranians might be able to get drones and cruise missiles to get through parts of Israel’s air defences. Let’s assume the Iranians manage to pull this off, what would the results be?

The 2019 attack did not kill anyone. It merely hit really big oil storage depots which were set on fire.

Interestingly, when I was a teenager, in Rhodesia, I could see the results of a similar strike from 20 Km away when Black terrorists set an oil storage depot on fire. It burned like that for several days.

The best the Iranians can hope for, is to hit some kind of economic or other target – something that is big and that isn’t well defended.

At the very best, a few people could be killed or perhaps a few dozen if they are very lucky.

And that’s that! It will be nothing more than a pin prick strike 1700 Km away and nothing more.

What will the Jews do? The Jews have missiles and they have an airforce that can fly long distances. America and Europe won’t allow the Jews to use nuclear weapons on Iran. So at best the Jews will be hitting back with missiles and drones of their own and hitting key targets that they’ve wanted to hit for a long time in Iran. It’s going to be yet another pin prick attack.

I think that Israel has hit Iran using its airforce in the past – but I’m not sure. I recall it was a really tricky thing the Jews did.

What can America do? Well, America could do a lot of bombing in Iran if it wanted and the Jews would love that. That’s their best outcome. The USAF could fly around Iran bombing all sorts of targets. But the US is not keen on this, though the Jews will push for this type of thing like crazy.

The most likely outcome is that the USA will try to put more sanctions on Iran.

All that we’ll have are 2 nations: Iran and Israel trading long distance blows with each other, for little result. It will COST A LOT OF MONEY AND EFFORT and have very minor results.

The grand total of people who will be killed will be very little – probably counted in the dozens at the most. It would be very expensive and have minor results and …. that would be it.

Meanwhile everyone is panicking as if a million or 10 million people are going to die, when, regardless of how long this takes, it will mostly be dozens dead and maybe, if both sides were determined, hundreds would die. But this is NOTHING when populations are in their MILLIONS.

This stuff is so lame and so militarily pointless as to be a laugh. I can’t believe everyone is so freaked out into thinking this can lead to something serious.

Iran doesn’t have nukes but the Jews have maybe 200 nukes. Now if the Jews were allowed to unleash nukes on Iran, which they would love to do, then you could say this is something serious. But to be honest, this is a lot of screeching about nothing. It’s a storm in a tea cup. Just because someone can fire a missile 1000+ Km doesn’t mean it’s an actual war and there is nothing you can win.

The one side can’t crush the other side. So it’s all pointless nonsense and leads to no serious outcome.

Modern warfare is a load of total nonsense, unless you do it on a scale like you see in Ukraine. That’s a real war. This other stuff is just a lot of nonsense.
