I need your expert opinion, anonymous users.Imagine a hypothetical country, let's call it Iram. A country with mountains as far as the eye can see. It holds one of the most important sea lanes at gun point, threatening world supply of energy. My question, how likely can this country be conquered having more or less 90 million inhabitants willing to die to the bitter end? Asking for a close friend of mine who is near and dear to my heart.
Ooh ooh I knowby never fighting them in the first place
>>531268201Conquered? By who?
>>531268384Wise guy, I see. But let's say we are past that point of return. >>531268422By those who have an axe to grind. Let's call them the Ebstein syndicate.
>>531268201Simple. Bow before me, and give me your soul.
>>531268201You need to kill the jews in order to win. It's the only way!
>>531268679..But for what? Why attempt to conquer a country you can't conquer? That's stupid.
>>531268892No one said IQ was their strength.
>>531268821Oy Vey.Hard mode: Don't kill all Jews.
>>531268988The only way to win that fight would be through deception and cunning. You'd have to turn the entire world against that country and it's allies (much like world war 2)
>>531269100Chance of success for such outcome?
>>531268201Better question:1. A major ethnic block country with stdategically secure geography, a range of valuable resources and a control of an economically strategic choke-point that can destroy the global economy2. Dirty pedos and christkillers in a last-ditch toehold on land surrounded by hostile forces maintained only by massive foreign subsidies and committing war-crimes, with no unique natural resources, but have video blackmail of all your politicians fucking teenage thots>Who should be your "best Ally"?
>>531269959Depends. Your best bet would be two things, leverage and influence. If you can blackmail other countries into submission and maintain control over the cultural landscape you could maximize your odds of winning to the point of near certainty. There's many factors at play like resource management and military strategy but overall, your influence on the narrative is the most important.
>>531268201Britania thought it could take the United States. Until the native & pilgrim started fighting back
>>531268201In modern warfare, you cantTo conquer means to take and hold territory and keep the local population in checkThe first step would be to take out the government and leadership and replace with either force or friendlies, this would require a full military campaign to take and hold the power bases of the country, something that requires years of planning and setup for logistics, manpower and equipmentThe losses this would involve would make it extremely unpopular in modern politics, therefore impossible for most countries
>>531268201>90 million inhabitantsIt requires a rare alignment of:low perceived riskhigh perceived participationbelief that change is possiblesome elite fragmentationA country doesn’t fall when:people are angryeconomy is badoutsiders apply pressureIt falls when:the system stops believing in itself internally
>>531268201You're undercutting the number of people willing to fight for that country -- which is basically the Utah of Asia -- by at least half.
>>531271120to clarifyevery other war up until Ukraine was pre-drone erathe change that flying lawnmowers has made to the battlefield is mindblowingYou literally cant have fob's anymore, any static position is going to get blatted if its anywhere near the front You either have to have very hardened bases with a cheap air defense method (counter drones at this point) or be mobile, hide in population centresPower projection is over, thats what war has been for decades and its change overnight, armies are not keeping upTrying to put manpower on the ground against a hostile population and intact power base in the mountains when they are armed with drones is not going to end well
There is only one option: throw all the nuclear bombs you own on yourself and your closest ally and blame Iram. It is particularly important to target key commanding centres to reallyrsell the illusion that it's a real attack. The false flag attack should be real and unanounced to catch as many of your own elites off-guard - no one will be able to argue that it was anyone excapt Iram.The most important places to target:Kashington D. C.MangleyBrookwyn, New GorkTel AbibRondonPerlinBarisNoscowProceed ASAP and do the needful to ensure total kike jeet.
>>531272242So you land your troops on the coast, how the fuck do you even get thereThe said waterway is under enemy controlThe only feasible way is a coordinated air and water attack that protects against dronesIn order to do that you would have to bring your water assets in close to protect the landing craftand utilize the close combat abilities of said craft while your air targets launching sites that are targeting the landing forcesThe sea forces dont really have the ability to be anti-drone because they arent designed for drone warfare and dont have counter drone facilities so as soon as they get close they are going to be targeted so its pretty much a failure from the start
>>531272980Lets say you have landed somehowUnless you have quick moving transport you are a sitting duck for drones How the fuck do you set up a base for further OP's when you are dodging drones that are going to target any structure/base you try to set upYou are in a foreign land and every local is going to give up your position first chance they getYou have constant surveillance drones above you Any armour will be a primary target, not that you have much because you would need a sustained coastal operation to land anything and you dont have control of the waterwayHonestly, I am glad I am to old to be drafted, war these days is a death sentenceI am reminded of the first world war when artillery/machine guns started to be used and the brass couldnt adapt and just sent wave after wave of men to die for fuck all
