They definitely can defeat US intervention and cause a lot of damage to their position in the middle east, but I keep mulling over what they can win. They can certainly force them to abandon some bases closer to them and maybe even keep a toll of some kind of the strait, but I don’t think it’s realistic to expect to force the US to abandon the middle east and even Israel. At that point they’d need to actually move troops or something to do that, which isn’t realistic.

Maybe just force them to give up sanctions? And make the bomb?

    They stated it explicitly, anime profile picture, whenever people ask this stuff I wonder if they check what the Iranians say at all: US military presence out of the region, reparations (imagine the court battle over this considering the unbelievable economic damage to Iran), removal of sanctions, Hezbollah’s demands included, & more. This is not a joke, they can launch missiles as far as Romania if needed. Especially relative to the size of their economy & the expense, their military infrastructure is domestic, decentralized, dense/high-impact, often impossible to target until in action. None of that can stop the US from inflicting incredibly self-destructive countervalue strikes on generally important infrastructure & social capital. Huge ass poor country. Why would you waste an interceptor slot in a boat on a tomahawk to blow up a school, if you weren’t following Wehrmacht delusions? They can only reload at port. Get real, CENTCOM.

    Might be the US game but it’s the IRGC’s war to end now, not Araghchi, & even he’s been posting real #different too. They haven’t even closed the Gate of Tears. Phase Three 👀
