If You Go to Fight Iran, I Have no Mercy For You
That may sound harsh - good. You are actively going to kill people in another nation who's been targeted for decades because your arrogance makes you think you're in the right.

Are You Kidding Me?
The entire US government says “Iran is making nukes,” the same stupid excuse they used to justify the Iraq war, and many of you are falling for it? Especially when it was clear the Iraq war was to steal their resources and expand US oil companies in the region? Have you lost your damn minds?
I want you to understand something very simple here, Iran is not like Iraq, not by a long shot. Iran has 3 large mountainous ranges on most of its borders, along with two large bodies of water to the North & South, and two extremely deadly deserts that are damn near impossible to survive in. It is naturally fortified. The easiest way in would be through Iraq, which means opening that can of worms again, plus you’d be dealing with the Iraqi resistance groups that have been actively fighting Israel since October 7th. Even if you get into Iran, congratulations, you’re trapped in a bowl and will have bullets and missiles from their air force rain down on you while you panic trying to find a way out. Most of Iran’s cities is in the mountains, you won’t be able to take a strategic location without constant ambush like Afghanistan did to our troops. Additionally, I need you to understand that Israel just recently got hit hard by Iranian missiles that had to travel over Iran & Jordan, where they get attempts to be intercepted by our bases and armaments, along with the help of the Jordan military and Israeli military, and yet they still hit - and you think your military is somehow going to win against them? If you willingly go fight Iran for the US, you’re not just arrogant, you are delusional or stupid.
If they declare full war and draft people, if you go to Iran, there is a significant chance you aren’t coming back.
“Oh but we have powerful military might!” The US ran a $250 million dollar simulation last year for a war in Iran AND LOST. You arrogantly think Iran will go tank for tank, aircraft for aircraft with you - no, they won’t. They’re going to use asymmetrical, unconventional guerilla warfare with you - like they’re known for doing.
Something you refuse to accept is Iran is a civilization that is thousands upon thousands of years old. They have a history and understanding of the past that you couldn’t possible comprehend. Do you know what the oldest civilization in the world is? Mesopotamia - the Middle East. Iran has been invaded multiple times since it’s first founding and its about an even split between those which was successful and those that wasn’t - do you think they haven’t studied that past and how to outmaneuver future enemies? Trump’s recent strike hit 3 nuclear plants that, as journalists later reported, resulted in no fatalities or damaged equipment because Iran relocated everything a few hours before, plus one of their biggest facilities is under a mountain. Again, do you think they didn’t study their past?
In the words of Hanoi Hannah:
“Defect, GI, it’s a very good idea to leave a sinking ship. They lie to you, GI, you know you can not win this war. Your rich leaders grow richer, while you’re dying in the swamp, GI. They will give you a medal, GI, but only after you’re dead. Your government lies to you everyday, poor soldier.”
Targeting Iran is Heartless & Arrogant:
I’ve seen multiple videos of people justifying joining the war against Iran, people joking about bombing Iran or going to fight. I’ve seen soldiers on TikTok making jokes about invading Iran.
This is chauvinist, arrogant behavior. Iran not only has not attacked anyone since the 1979 Iranian revolution, except Israel, both times as a reaction to their attack. And you’ll say “Oh but what about the proxies” the proxies fighting ours? The groups that are organically founded by the communities they fight in? The groups that, mind you, are fighting groups we finance or governments we propped up illegally. That is somehow wrong, why? Simple - to you, your arrogance, your Western nationalism, believes you’re in the right and more civilized to guide communities that are older and wiser than you. Don’t lie, don’t hide, that’s the dirty truth.
Then you’ll decry “but we can’t trust them to have nukes.” Yes, because the US who has overthrown 80+ nations and assassinated multiple world leaders, and has used nukes unnecessarily, is more legitimate to have them. Let’s not ignore the fact when Libya denuclearized, the US overthrow them through a proxy group and NATO bombing campaign. DPRK refuses to get rid of theirs and the US has slowly stopped taunting them. China & Russia has them and the US doesn’t dare to get too close to a full scale war with them. Because while everyone understands when the first one fires, it’s mutually assured destruction, they also understand that the US is a bully who doesn’t respect sovereignty.
Plus, if there is any country that shouldn’t have nukes in the region, it’s the lunatic Israeli state that has the Samson Option - which basically states that if Israel is about to collapse, they’re going to nuke all their enemies as a way to take the world with them. The same crazy country that has leveled Gaza with just regular munitions and bunker busters, regardless of the civilians in the area - there isn’t a single building in Gaza that’s not damaged by Israel. But nah, let’s worry about Iran apparently.
Glory to The Anti-War Soldiers & Veterans, The Rest of You are Attack Dogs for Fascism:
There was more honor and respect in the brave soldiers who sabotaged the war machine or defected during Vietnam, or who planned to blow the whistle during the Iraq War (RIP Pat Tillman), or who acknowledged their complacency and acted to expose the imperialist machine like Michael Prysner, or who made a statement like Aaron Bushnell.
Let me make it clear: If you think Iran is a lunatic enemy state and that the Middle East, Africa, Asian, (or any third-world/second-world nation/region) should listen to the West, you’re a Western Nationalist. I do not care if you come back. You’re arguing that entire nations or regions should listen to us, the country that can’t even solve its own problems despite being rich enough to do so, or face violence. You operate from the same mentality of the narcissist partner who demands submission or face punishment, regardless how abusive they are.
Maybe you just don’t see it, maybe you lack awareness or guidance. But that argument goes out the window as soon as you take the life of a civilian in another country with no remorse for your actions. Once that life is snuffed by you, once you realize you killed, a part of you dies with them. I have no interest in trying to convince anyone who actively let their souls, their humanity, die alongside the innocent they kill or harm for an illusion they’ve been fed their entire lives. That’s another comrade’s job to try and get you to realize your crimes & sins. Preferably someone who seen the results of their criminal acts and now fights in the anti-war movement.
Just like the Soviets gave no mercy to Nazi soldiers except those who left before the war, you will get the same hatred by me for your ruthless actions to rob and destroy nations older than your own because of your arrogance that you’re somehow better - murderer.
