What I really want to know is, since the USA can’t just drive over flat ground like all those tanks in Iraq, how the hell are these troops going to GET to Iran?
D-Day amphibious landing vs. horrific killer drones?
Parachute beyond the mountains where they have no chance of ever getting out?
Just try to bring Navy ships into a port and get Pearl Harbored by ballistic missiles?
Either way, this is one of the only things Trump could ever possibly do that would lead to a mutiny. I don’t mean from his generals or Chiefs of Staff (those have been purged of the disloyal) but from mass fragging events and low-level officers. We might actually see a Battleship Potemkin scenario here, not to mention a Battle of Tsushima scenario.
Sounds very ill advised. I would guess it’s islands to control the strait of Hormuz. Qeshm Island primarily and Bandar Abbas and the entire region of Hormozgan province eventually. That would mean massive softening strikes and then special forces/troopers/marines to secure a beachhead at night. Amphibious landings.

They can invade through Turkey, no? I mean obviously also a really bad idea but probably less bad than an amphibious landing.
A lot of people seem to think it’s solely going to be an operation to excavate the Fordow nuclear site and extract the enriched uranium there.
Don’t ask how they’re going to secure an excavation project that’s only 50miles outside Tehran for the several weeks it will take to excavate it.
large-scale social engineering: they’re gonna put a hi-vis vest on every soldier, and they will all carry a ladder
This sounds like a monty python bit
i think theyll go for 25,000 ladder guys and 25,000 clipboard guys so it looks less obvious.

flat ground doesn’t even matter nowadays because of drones https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAg4qBaFvjI
