>"You wait until nighttime, and you will see how we are killing these Iranian dogs," an Iraqi officer said with a broad grin. "We are frying them like eggplants."
>He then took us on a tour of dozens of thick electrical cables his troops had lain through the marshy battlefield, a spaghetti network that snaked in and out of the patchwork of lagoons. He showed us the mammoth electric generators that fed the exposed power lines from positions just behind the Iraqi front lines. And, when the Iranian Revolutionary Guards made their regular evening advance, the officer and his men demonstrated the macabre genius of their invention.
>Iraqi gun batteries fired just enough artillery to force the Revolutionary Guards from their marsh boats, and, when hundreds of them had been forced to continue their advance through the lagoons on foot, the men manning the Iraqi generators flipped a few switches and sent thousands of volts of electricity surging through the marshland.
>Within seconds, hundreds of Iranians were electrocuted.
That war showed just how retarded Arabs are. Not only did Iraq have the support of the world, yes the world (USA, NATO, and even Russia), they were faced against a country who just got out of a bloody revolution with zero organization and equipment.
How stupid do you have to be to miss an empty net?
This level of incompetence is unmatched.
Perhaps maybe now by Saudi Arabia who is currently getting their shit kicked in by a bunch of sandel wearing Yemenis using clogged up soviet AK's.
I kind of want to see where Trump goes with ME policy. Because if it is truly isolationist, there will be no such thing as Arab by the time the Iranians and Israelis are finished.

It will happen regardless, I am guessing islam will collapse the moment Sunni's loose the wahhabist support from the Saudis, the oil wells are near dry, crashing prices and a bad war in Yemen for the wahhabis is signalling a wider instability in the kingdom, the Shia have been on the rise since the events of 2015, Syrian Government resurgence in the Syrian Civil War, Iraq wholeheartedly allowing Iranian combat troops to participate in the fight against ISIS. In yemen the highly advanced and equipped Houthi Shias are decimating Saudi attempts to restore control, though they have regained some semblance after 2 years with a foothold in Sadaa.
Either way the Houthis arent going anywhere, they will just try again in 10 years. China and Russia are actively against the wahhabis and are throwing their lot with the Shias.
Culturally Shias are way more 'liberal' if that can be applied and are more easily accepting of unorthodox behavior and as such the best exit plan for the world to rid itself of muslims. Just look at Iran, modernization has led to relaxation of a lot of the laws regarding strict islamic codes, most of the 'anti-revolutionary' actions of the youth in Iran is basically old morons from the 70's complaining, there was a march a couple of months back asking for women to cover themselves, almost all the people marching were over 50. They have underground party scene and raves and shit, no other Arab countries have that save the ones with Shias or a lot of westerners.
So hopefully, wahhabis get ousted by the Shias and the shia will exhaust themselves and the faith will crumble. Then the true reckoning will begin as the muslim identity is ground into the dirt.

Urgh, I fucking know right. Iraq had access to far more equipment, replacements and spare parts over the war (after iran burned through what the Americans had given the Shah), American aircraft literally bombing Iranian oil wells and ships, Americans shooting down a passenger plane, access to chemical weapons and more.
Who were the only countries to exclusively help iran? North Korea and Syria.
To think 3 years later people would crapping on about Saddam's million man battle hardened army. A five year old could've won Desert Storm.
Nathan Gomez
Islam in general is dependant on ME to dictate to them how it is followed, Wahhabis dying will dry up the primary source of cash for the madrassas that maintain wahhabist thought, this vaccum will be filled by Shias or disaffected muslims reverting. Sunnis will more than likely implode or atleast loose a LOT of their strength soon, modernism will crush it under its relentless advance.

Brody Wilson
As I wrote in the first post of the pic dump, Khorramshahr is home to a major international port, and when Saddam’s forces captured the city in the Iran-Iraq war, they took leftover car shipments and planted them in the ground to serve as a anti-paratrooper emplacements. Some of them are still preserved in the city.
Parker Cook
what was this meant to do?
make it harder to shoot cars from the air? seems like a lot of effort. and it would take you hours before you could un-dig the cars and use them again
Colton Jackson
Maybe the idea was to reduce the amount of open ground near the city for the paratroopers to land in? I'm sure its not safe to try and parachute into what's essentially a junk yard.
I don't know for sure though. I can't find anything online. Can anyone confirm?

The cars were there to prevent fast air assault from helicopters, not just paratroopers.
Nazis did something similar in france by uprooting telephone poles and flooding fields to take care of gliders and paratroops, respectively.

Don't care if anyone believes me but my dad told me this about the war. It's weird seeing it here, he rarely talks about the war. Most of the times I have to ask after a few wiskeys. I never knew if it was true or not it seemed so unreal. He got wounded the day before and his whole battalion got zapped. He met my mom in a bom shelter in Tehran on his leave from this, so in a weird way this event put me on this earth and 28years later some other dude posts this on a anonymous image board. This is weird

Trump can't be truly isolationist because he's too thin skinned to turn down even the most obscure challenge.

Dude, the fucking Shia were just as bad as the fucking Sunni's in Iraq.
Granted, I agree about the Wahabists being straight up cancer, but don't think for a minute the fucking Shia will be much better than their sunni counterparts.
A lot of the way they "practice" their shit is cultural, which means that crazy sandniggers will be crazy sandniggers regardless of their respective gods.

And Northern Iraq is Kurdish, by that logic it should be independant, instead of being part of Iraq.
As for Ahvaz, it has oil, so nobody's giving it up.

In that case Ar*bs should stop occupying Kurdish land, Mosul and Kirkuk should be part of a free Kurdistan.
Hopefully Kurds continue removing Ar*bs and Ass*rians from their land.
