can iranian forces win? while they have the numbers they seem outgunned by irgc/basij so far. ive seen shotguns,pistols.. any automatic weapons are rare and the enemy has tanks and artillery they have not yet deployed.i think if they just take over key cities,roads and choke the enemy of supplies they have a shot
>>64734494I think this vindicates every pistolgrip pump action shotgun for HD thread for 1000 1000 years.

>>64734494So is this actually serious or literally nothing
>>64736235Who knows? The Iranians have had a bunch of unrest and uprisings in the past 15 or so years. Be nice if it did, but I wouldn't get excited till Iranian Army units start defecting.
>>64736235I'm usually blaise about this shit but tonight looks really serious>at least 100 cities are rioting>three cities have gone complete insurrection and raised the Lion and Sun flag, including Iran's main port>Iran has cut off all internet and phone service and grounded all air traffic>Iraqi military units are crossing the Iranian borderThere's also a video going around of a good old fashioned truck attack like the towelheads are so fond of - except it's an Iranian driver bowling through a street full of Iranian military
>>64736248>iraqi military units are crossing the iranian borderwhat
>>64736248>There's also a video going around of a good old fashioned truck attack like the towelheads are so fond of - except it's an Iranian driver bowling through a street full of Iranian militaryC'mon anon, you gotta show the class
>>64736255https://www.foxnews.com/world/iran-regime-said-unleash-hezbollah-iraqi-militias-uprising-spreadsUnfortunately it looks like they're Shiite mercenaries there to back the Ayatollah
>>64736248Yeah, normally its just a bunch of protesting, but now we've seen actual conflict that isn't just civvies getting swooped on by religious death squads right?
>>64736235Possibly serious, IRR is deep in the shitter with 1 million Iranian funbucks being worth 1 single American dollar (7 if you account for PPP). Personally I think this is going to end up like the Venezuelan revolt around 2016ish where there'll be tons of fighting and it'll look like this'll finally be the end of the government but they somehow survive but just continue to death spiral
>>64736268>1 million Iranian funbucks being worth 1 single American dollarSo you're saying it's a great time to visit iran
>>64736268It's really hard to tell, like I can't fairly state why the 300th uprising against Assad was so much more effective than the previous 299 of 'em

>>64736341I mean, it really proves he's a Russian cocksucker if he... liquidates all of Russia's overseas allies
>>64736235Its serious enough they turned the internet off in Iran!I think its gotten to the point they state couldn't run anything worth a pinch of shit, they have no water in their capital cities because someone fucked it up, they've been subjected to Jewish curses on their military and its just all kinds of fucked up, miserable existence. Get enough of them fed up and pissed off, well it gets serious real quick
>>64736421>they have no water in their capital cities because someone fucked it upThis story is extremely important and not widely reported because it is boring and unsexyThrough decades of extremely inefficient and wasteful dam and irrigation projects, Iran has utterly destroyed their own water table, their policy the entire time essentially being "throw it around however you want, we'll just pump more"
>>64736350US issued a bunch of NOTAMs over Iran a few hours ago.
>>64736235I don't know if it will be enough but it's the worst it's been in at least 10 years. The government is relatively weakened and the protests have more steam than usual because their economy is in meltdown.
>>64736439ah, good old Soviet Environmentalism
>>64736439Did you also watch the Perun end-of-year video?
>>64736439>water shortagepresumably followed by a famine? yeah that'll do it.

>>64736439The jinn will bring everything in order.
>>64736480There's a real argument to be made about the fragile rigidity of authoritarianism, that well apart from any moral or philosophical argument, the "strongman" CAN'T get shit done due to human fallibility and corruption; the best thing you can actually have is peaceful political rivals because then at least occasionally good ideas are squeezed out by darwinismI'd note that China benefited tremendously from Deng, not being some idealist or democrat like Westerners might hope, but perhaps just because he was a foe of Mao and recognized the ways that Mao was a fucking retard. Jiang and Hu largely carried Deng's concepts of a a more flexible dictatorship forward; Xi has largely discarded them because he apparently thinks himself immortal and infallible.Remember that Chinese dictators used to actually retire, and what a rare and wonderful idea it is of a "retired dictator" - Deng had actually solved the ancient dictator's paradox of "Riding the Tiger," if you were Boss Chinaman you really got to leave office at age 70 and just be a pain in the ass royalty/celebrity until you die at age 100. Xi just took that very solid idea that might be one of the few ways to bring efficiency to a dictatorship and threw it in the fucking trash because he knows better.
>>64736482>A man's water belongs to his tribe, we are only here to take back what is ours.
>>64736504>what a rare and wonderful idea it is of a "retired dictator"The fact that Brezhnev held onto power even as he degenerated into senility doesn't get talked about enough for the amount of damage it did to the Soviet system.
>>64736297Russia was finally busy enough they couldn't spare more then a token force down there to stabilize shit, and the US was willing to hold their nose enough to accept "better then Assad" rebel groups rather then someone who needed to actually be palatable to the West at large.

>>64736480Barely, China has been assisted to remain competent the entire time. Constantly being handed critical technology to maintain a competent counter.>>64736504More importantly Hong Kong filled the role of counter culture where opposing ideas could flourish. This basicly allowed a two party discourse even though one party always remained in power. That was removed a few years ago when they ended the mostly autonomous rule and cracked down on Hong Kong with the same censorship the rest of the nation has.

>>64736683yeah, they go through this every few years. hard to see any straw added to the camel's back to make it a government threat
>>64736297it's this >>64736548 plus hezbollah getting rekt and iran getting stretched too thin across their own 7 fronts
>>64736235The nations resources and economy have been so comically mismanaged that they have literally run out of water and yet the government's response is to double down on ballistic missile production instead of doing literally anything at all to alleviate the crisisIf this isn't the big one, then the big one is coming soon

He was pushing progressive policies that were pissing people off. Contextualize it for your presumably American self and imagine a president who aspired to emulate Canadian/German/Swedish policies and did so very aggressively.I remember a class a decade ago on revolutions in the Middle East with a thesis that revolutions happen not because "things suck" - things always suck. They happen when things get better or you hope for things to get better then your expectations get dashed. But I am not sure how/if that applied to him
>>64736235They are planning to abandon their capitol due to lack of water
>>64736719I genuinely do hope this is the big one, both because I'm tired of Iran stirring up shit all the time for no reason and because I hope to one day visit Tehran and eat at Iranian restaurants until I must be transported home in a wheelbarrow.
>>64736331They're all doom and gloom over it.
>>64736724It cannot be overstated what a colossally retarded fuckup Hamas' Paragliding Adventure Vacation was.
>>64736741Eh, you forget another Iranian actor: the socialists. So, a bunch of atheist socialists and a bunch of hardline shariahfags got together and ousted his majesty.

He then proceeded to rig an election to give his coalition control over parliament, kicked out the theocrats, and cozied up the Soviet Union himself to kneecap the commies.

The problem is facing agriculture which means they'll need to start importing food if it gets worse.>>64736683>It would be fucking hilarious if they collapsed overnight like Syria but they have an annoying habit of persisting in the face of catastropheI think it's because the core of the regime in Iran is more ideological/religious.

>>64734494if they take any real actions against the protestors trump will do the needful and wipe them off the face of the earth
>>64737019Some of the protestors have already been killed so we'll see if he backs any of that up.
>>64736758That whole thing was basically the beginning of the end for Iran. Fucking stupid. Yeah some Jews were killed but it definitely wasn't worth it lol.
>>64734494Wait, are the protesters actually shooting back this time around?
>>64736439Dumb motherfuckers are obsessed with building dams. One of these dams fucked up so much it managed to turn one of the major freshwater reservoirs saltier than the ocean because it spilt over to the nearby salt deposit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upper_Gotvand_Dam
>>64736260Gotta protect their paycheques.
>>64736439One of the reasons they did this to themselves is because they pursued a strategy of self-reliance (albeit to a lesser extreme than North Korea's juche policy), which means that they are trying to grow all their food themselves. This was already a tough ask in an arid nation before their population exploded. So they've gone and sucked the land dry to grow more shit where they shouldn't be.
>>64736684My respect for the ayatollah just fucking plummeted
>>64737318Its not too bad up near the Caspian sea were they get some regular rainfall but I recollect there was a lot of deforestation and other silliness happening up there. Problem with the rest of the country is that its not just 'dry' but the rest of it is mountains, rocks and just fucking useless for anything- except that its horrible for all human life and one of those places which wouldn't be practical to invade with a lot of ground forces. Not impossible but it's not the bum rush to the capital like in Iraq which is mostly just sand, flat and not a huge amount of variations apart from the rivers, drained swamps and the mountains up north.Usually the only people who say 'Let invade Iran!' are typically either massive dumb cunts or people who never looked at a topology map
>>64736439It was literally Jewish space lasers that evaporated their water, nice try Rabbi.
I have more respect for Iranian people going against their gov overlords than for cucked Burgers, let me tell you that.
>>64736684Ey Tone, if they don't control America how come they make up so much of the government and media?https://x.com/i/status/1937463465221685751The vid is your answer, the powers that be wanted him out.
>>64736480The US isn't in a much better spot tbf
>>64737343Isn't that because California refuses to desalinate seawater and use that instead of looking for alternative sources and allowing for the water tables to return to normal?
>>64737352Anon that's in Utah, lake Mead has the same problem
>>64736439Uh, how does building a dam reduce water?
>>64737370It inherently limits river flow and there is A LOT of evaporation straight from the reservoir.
>>64737308>The salinity of the water below the dam is 5.5 times the salinity of the water in the Persian Gulf, and nothing can be done to solve this problemI think they should run a religious campaign to convince people to drink the salty water because they'll go to heaven
>>64734494Jews already tried that last year It wont work
>>64736375>sugaranon, Cuba is a sugar importer today. Yes, really.
>>64736504>There's a real argument to be made about the fragile rigidity of authoritarianismWestern democracy has existed for about 250 years, give or take.Feudal authoritarianism has existed for 4000.Democracy is as unnatural as a planned economy. Capitalism under authoritarianism is human nature.Enjoy your time left. This mimicking of fading prosperity will fall when the prosperity is no more.
>>64737435I think they import about 80% of their food and practically all their energy, there was a period of time back in the 2000's when they figured on running electricity from Venezuela on undersea cables.Fun time was the USSR exploding, that took out so many thirdies. Now Cuban human development indexes I think are basically how quick you can float anywhere the fuck else on an inner tube
>>64737370That particular lake as roughly 6 or more dams surrounding it, if i remember correctly. They did this even though they did a study back in the 80s that said that the lake wasn't feasible for any number of dams
With Iran burning down, you'd think someone like Syria Girl wouldn't post shit like this. But I guess she's becoming the female version of Copelord now.

>>64737467Well the Ayatollah is doomed now.
>>64737452aaaand the prosperity is schedule to end in... let's see, about 2 weeks.
>>64737434It has a solid chance of working right now. If the jews or americans DON'T get involved.
>>64737497>If the jews or americans DON'T get involved.Something like 28/31 provinces are facing either full revolts or heavy riots to the point where the security forces are stretched far too thin for them to effectively do anything to stem the flow. Even if the Israeli's and the US get involved, the strikes will be focused on the Ayatollah and his inner circle. Meaning that the collapse just happens even faster.
>>64737506this revolt will hinge on how the Iranian army and republican guard react if the US and/or Israel intervenes than it's going to nudge them to staying loyalin general don't stop your enemy when he's making a mistakeif it turns into a full on civil war greatif the regime has to start tuning the army on the protestors also great, more decent and turncoats
>>64737506The other post already mentioned it, foreigners involving themselves in favour of rebels will cause the military and some people to rally around the flag.It would give a source for the bullshit the ayatollah is saying about US and Israel already invading them.
>>64736624La Cucaracha
>>64736331too busy with the current 2 party shitflinging. the few threads about this topic that manage to live are either filled with calling it a jewish psyop or filled with photos of iranian women with slightly less clothes than usual
>>64736606in addition to what was already said, Trump talked specifically about Cuba in a speech after the Venezuela op. could imply intent on military action, but who knows with this guy
>>64737785Just a reminder the reported median salary in Cuba translates to about 16 USD so for twenty bucks you could probably bang half the women on the island.
>>64737370Improper placement of dams (which also has to be calcuated with literally every other dam in the chain btw) results in massive disruptions to water flow, with normal dams also doing the same even at the best case.

>>64737352Desalination isn't the answer. It's energy intensive and produces concentrated brine that's toxic to the local sea life. You need to pump it deep where it'll pool and not contaminate the local waters. It only works for Israel because they're so small.

>>64738115Monthly. You could probably buy a live in maid/fuck toy for a thousand bucks a year.
>>64738102Why not evaporate the rest of the water out of the brine and utilize the solid salt? It's like an 8 Oz cup of salt for every 250 gallons of water by my quick math. So a 50 MGD plant would produce 7 tons of salt per day.
>>64738185>The US/Israel getting involved will only spur loyalty and nationalism from the Iranian army>But if China sends troops to support the regime they'll welcome themGod, please let this happen, it would be a spectacular geopolitical blunder.

>>64738240Or if the retards stopped living in the DESERT
>>64738240>>64738102Desal has and could be an option. California benefited and still benefits from federal management of the Colorado River basin which explicitly allows CA to keep getting water for economic reasons Until the cost of that water was reflecting reality (which it is now due to shortage), desal issues is very attractive now due to that, but it wasn't twenty years ago and certainly not before then. CA now has to do desal or else they will not be able to sustain their southern farms (tho to be fair they were retarded for creating those southern farms anyway)

>>64738256>de-icing>in the desertI mean maybe they could export it, were it not for the fact that they are sanctioned by just about everyone with a lattitude that would need salt for the roads. And also bulk salt is cheap, so not much value as an export.
>>64738264I thought we were discussing California, not Iran.
>>64738204It looks like people are working on it.>https://news.mit.edu/2019/brine-desalianation-waste-sodium-hydroxide-0213>https://e360.yale.edu/features/desalination-saltwater-brine-miningSome useful chemicals and metals in that brine. Not much for eating, though.
>>64738240>Nuclear reactors existEvery nuclear reactor is a nail in the coffin for humanity and long term life on earth. ALL LIFE.
>>64735208If this is the retard obsessed with the Eglin AFB then he's some canadian who's actually mentally ill and posts here when he has his psycho fits.
>>64738270Salty water must be why Iran needs nuclear power (and bombs).
>>64738279Are you a Boomer, by chance?
>>64738247>retarded for creating the southern farmsFucking bingo. Open spigot irrigation/pivot irrigation is the most wasteful way to do agriculture in that climate and the state still refuses to do anything about it. On top of that there's the massive inefficiencies in landscaping for the climate that still happen despite them knowing how wasteful it is. Building shit like data centers in a fucking desert is also a terrible idea, but that's not just CA being stupid.>>64738235You store it. It's salt. It's quite happy to just sit there and be salt. Haul it somewhere dry and dump it. 7 ton/50 Mgal seems pretty reasonable, you could run a freight train by once every other week and cart it off.
>>64738285I mean, utilizing waste heat from a nuclear power plant to distill freshwater is unironically a good idea.
>>64738287Where did you say you are storing the 12,000 year half-life waste? What language will that danger sign be written in?
>>64738305Desert of Nevada will do fine.
>>64738300Tell that to San Onofre.
>>64738310Lousy idea. Every idea is lousy. You have no credibility, Bectel shill.

>>64738299>You store it.Well that doesn't sound like using it.
>>64738279Genuinely retarded take. Stop reading Green Peace leaflets and actually educate yourself.
>>647383522/3 of the Chernobyl divers are still alive btw. One died from a heart attack in 2005.Now where are the broken chromosomes and puss filled tumors?
>>64738305>Where did you say you are storing the 12,000 year half-life waste?you know France uses recycled nuclear fuel for some of their reactors, right? We can sell it to them or just recycle and reuse the fuel ourselves.
>>64738371You're arguing with an emotional retard, anon. Don't even bother. They're not functioning on knowledge or facts, just feelings.
>>64736439That makes me sad. Reminds me of the Aral Sea drying up.
>>64738305breeder reactors
>>64738305Why would you store it? Either reprocess it (you can do that), dump it over the mid-oceabic ridge (water makes a fantastic insulator), or launch it into the Sun every decade or so. Retards like you are the reason we're worried about GHG in power generation, the US could have quite easily and safely switched over to a fully nuclear grid in the 70s but clowns of your ilk gobbled up propaganda pieces and continue to cause problems today.
But state media here said that the protests have quieted down and there is no chance for regime change???
>>64738407>just dump it in the ocean and create godzilla!no thanks bro. though at the rate rocket tech is progressing I can see dumping it on the moon becoming viable within a decade
>>64738407nuclear power is an existential threat to big oil companies, this is the only reason why the US and most of the world aren't 100% nuclear
>>64738371Whats funny is even the HBO show which shows people horrifically dying from acuye radiation have to admit in the end the worst case scenario for everyone barring direct contact with graphite chunks was maybe lung cancer in their 60s. Anti nuclear tards in the west are useful idiots for China/Russia.
>>64738445Oil is vital for plastics its not going anywhere anytime soon. The anti nuclear crowd is foreign influenced.
>>64738433>creat godzillaI will have my Kaiju waifu and you can't stop me you luddite.
>>64738102>its energy intensiveyeah, and Iran has oil. but they also have energy problems because Iran's oil refineries are dogshit. so if you solve oil problem they would also solve their desalination problem.of course it won't be nearly at a scale big enough to sustain Iran, but putting any dent in the water problem is worth it.they should also combine it with wastewater reuse tech which is a big part of Israel's system, they recycle 90% of their wastewater for agricultural use.
>>64735186I wouldn't drink from the fucking tap in a cleanroom lab you filth, I have a filtration bottle with copper bands... goddamn ape.
>>64738445Nuclear power doesn't let you create usable fuel for cars, ships and planes, or manufacture plastics retardbro.
>>64735620Everyone knows it's "Reagans per Century" that counts.

>>64738490>nuclear power can't fuel ships>25 and counting CVN, multiple nuclear icebreakers, and all the nuclear subs run on pixie dust and unicorn blood sacrificesThat's pretty metal.
>>64738380>Aral Sea drying upMy first thought, when I saw the img. One of the most under reported eco disasters in the modern world (meaning ever). Btw, The Great Khersonian Drying was a natural process, not a disaster any more that the disappearance of Lake Bonneville.
>>64738407>mid-oceabic ridge (water makes a fantastic insulator), or launch it into the Sun every decade or soAbsolute retard.
>>64738490>muclear carsThis is just getting stupider. This is waht Venezuela is for.
>>64736439I bet the Djinn did this
>>64738545He's not wrong though. Do you have any idea how deep, isolated, and completely still some parts of the ocean are? Ever hear of Point Nemo? If you dropped tons of nuclear waste (assuming it's not recycled like a good portion is) at some points in the ocean, it would stay there long after life on this planet has died. LET ME BE CLEAR: I'M NOT SUGGESTING WE DO THAT!
>>64737370the one extra stupid damn caused the water to rise to a level where it submerged a large layer of salt. So now, in places, the water is saltier than the ocean.Religious ideologues in charge of a country, always a bad idea
This is waiting for us.
>>64738490Nuclear energy lets you free up fossil fuels to be used to power the things that turn them into plastic and automotive products you brainless ape. And when its spent it can sit in a lead and concrete cylinder in a mountain cave for the next ten thousand years and not bother anyone. Im sure you love huffing carcenogenic exhaust fumes, which would explain your stupid ass oil company ball gurgling take, emotional brainlet.

If Iranian forces had fired MG42s into the crowd it would almost certainly have dispersed, honestly given the small number of deaths and the fact that the internet was only cut off yesterday, I think the mullah simply doesn't want to harm his people and that's a mistake on his part, that's how Louis XVI ended up beheaded

>>64738407Fully nuclear isn't realistic. 60% nuclear would cover baseload, and the rest should be covered with renewables + storage and Combined Cycle Gas Turbine.
>>64736504Ever notice all strongmen authoritarians are fucking crazy?
>>64738654Isn't she Australian? Where'd she get a gun to an hero?
>>64738687It's more that they're old, they're dying, and they know it. Their only concern at this stage in their lives is making it into the history books so that future peoples will know their names forever. So they'll do anything to be notable, no matter how retarded.
>>64736705You still can call it socialism.
>>64734494the problem with iran is that there is a solid ideologically loyal base that supports the regime as well as deep state that is heavily dependent and enriched by it. those two make up the armed groups, the basij, the IRGC, even the regular army though to a lesser extent. because of this it's hard to imagine a scenario where the armed forces switch sides or even just let it happen. maybe if the protesters hit some critical zerg rush the leadership but they are not organised enough for this.I think you'll need the help of an outside force. or maybe if Khamenei kicks it.
>>64738490>Nuclear power doesn't let you create usable fuel for carsYes it does. It's called the Fischer-Tropsch process..

>>64737452>Western democracy has existed for about 250 years, give or take.>Feudal authoritarianism has existed for 4000.That argument makes about as much sense as saying horses are the future because we've been using them for 3000 years, while cars, trains and planes are a fad since they've been around for less than 200 years.
There goes the gold. Now Vladdyboy can buy more Temu tanks. I'm sure Puccia will commit many thousands of its best troops to Iran.

>>64738407You are retarded the solution is to bury it deep underground and we've known that for a while. A mix of laziness and waiting for technology to make it more cost effective is the only thing in the way.
>>64738783The vast majority of Russian muslims are Sunnis, and Sunnis as a rule absolutely despise Shias like the Iranian mullahs, seeing them as apostate infidels. Its a political conflict turned sectarian that is roughly 1300 years old.

A group of people, who have seen the thousand round pictures, see the square picture and exclaim, "Ah ha! See! I knew it was psyop! The round object was fake all along!"This is /pol/. Terminal contrarians who will ignore a mountain of evidence but latch onto one schizo or troll.

>>64736297Victory, or the perception of victory, destroyed Assad. He didn't see his enemies as a threat anymore, but the Turks prevented him finishing the job. With a stalemate that he thought would end with his victory inevitably, he was more interested in avoiding a replacement from his own ranks. In the process he hollowed out and destroyed his own power base. Too many factions, too many groups, too much corruption, no sense of purpose.

>>64737341>the Jews removed the Shah>the Jews want the Shah back
>>64739111>Anything that has a nuclear half life has useful energy left in it as nuclear fuelThat anon is a retard but this isn't right at all. The majority of known nuclides are radioactive, but most of them decay so slowly and are so stable that extracting energy to do useful work from them is completely impractical (even theoretically). About 40% of nuclides are stable, 60% aren't, but of those unstable nuclides 52% are stable enough that we've never actually observed a evsn a single decay event, and most of the rest are so stable that you can't do useful work with them.
