Historically the Kurds aren’t a group to mess with.

Read Xenophon’s “Retreat of the 10,000” and see what happened to 10,000 Greek mercenaries as they retreated from Persia to Greece and traveled through Kurd territory.

Hint: The Greek Hoplites didn’t fair very well against the Kurds even after crushing the Persian army.....history repeats....

IRGC can’t handle dozens of of distributed large riots and insurrections at the same time, and a lot of people know it. A bunch of their security folks are already planning how and where they will run and hide, when it looks really bad for the regime.

The real test will be when the Iranian security forces start taking significant casualties, and have to decide if they are really willing to die for the regime.

This is a great opportunity for the US to stay completely out of Iran.

Considering modern Iran is exactly what it is today because Jimmah Carter so benevolently helped the Soviet Communists overthrow the Anglophile Westernist Shah.

No troops, no "advisors," no weapons, no protection, no cash, sit back and watch the enemy kill and pauperize themselves wile we build the wall, pay down the debt and strengthen the dollar.

Jimmy Carter arguably kicked off the modern Islamic resurgence by that action. Note I don’t say “extremist”. There is only Islam.

There is only Islam.

Agreed, it is unified in it's purpose.

Only until the non-Islamic is removed, then there’s all sorts of infighting.

What will Thomas Wictor say about this... Is the GSC involved on the down low and what are they using for weapons. Note start following Thomas on Twitter as what I just said is a mouthful and what he talks about all the time, aka their is more going on in the M.E. than anyone in the lame streams will tell you...
