I think it would be more than that. Iran is 4 times the size of Iraq with who knows how long their tunnel systems are. Population is also about 3-4 times larger than Iraq. |

If they try to control Iran it will turn into second Vietnam/Afghanistan. Tens of thousands of dead US soldiers. |

Trump just wants to do some special forces type operations. |

I hope they wipe out the thousands, I want so many honor flights coming in that Trump has to live on the tarmac where he can't fuck anything else up. |

I mean, there's been what? 4 successful conquests of Persia in the last 3000 years? most recently a joint a British Soviet sneak attack during WW2. But I'm sure that the empire that failed in in prior two occupations of Iran's weaker neighbors will be fine. |

You forget Trump Always Chickens Out. He's a guy that "grabs them by the pussy." He ain't buying the cow. |

I don’t think he wants the whole country. Probably just control of Kharg. |

Then chicken out 20 years later and have the power vacuum immediately refilled by the people you were combating. Oh, and thanks for the millions of dollars worth of assets you leave behind. |

But you can't safely occupy Kharg without controlling the mainland. Iran is hitting targets much farther away than Kharg. |

There were ~400.000 German soldiers in nazi occupied Norway in 1945, a country with then a little less than 3 million people. Arguably even that didn't really control the country. |
