[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Former Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz declares that he won’t rule out American boots on the ground in Iran

He says Israel has been waiting for 47 years so they cannot pass up this opportunity.

Of course![/quote]

Did you people watch the video? She first asked about boots on the ground in general and then specifically asked about Israeli boots on the ground. At no point in this clip did she mention American boots on the ground. I’m sure you all want to read into it that way and you might be right. But that isn’t what was said and this is a misleading headline. This is the entire problem with the Internet people just spew out their opinions and everyone shares it uncritically.[/quote]

Israel’s military is 176,000. Iran’s is 610,000. The US military is 1.3 million.

The math here is not hard.[/quote]

Israel needs to bring at least 75,000 to the invasion. The US Army( 445,000) and Marines(168,000) are the forces that would go. Remember the 600,000 ish army and marines troops are not all combat forces. The army is about 10-15% combat arms the rest are combat support and service support roles. The marines are about 20% combat roles. So sending all active duty combat units would be about 100,000 US troops in combat units. There would of course be support troops.

The US will have to call up the reserves and National Guard to invade Iran. You can do it with just active duty members. [/quote]

When planes start landing at  Dover AFB with hundreds of US casualties, what then?[/quote]
The media wont be allowed into Dover and the government will lie about the death count.[/quote]
