Iran to ready thousands of graves for enemy soldiers

[240 is Back]

Holy shit... this shit is getting scary.

Iran is to dig 320,000 graves in border districts to allow for the burial of enemy soldiers in the event of any attack on its territory, a top commander said on Sunday.
"In implementation of the Geneva Conventions... the necessary measures are being taken to provide for the burial of enemy soldiers," the Mehr news agency quoted General Mir-Faisal Bagherzadeh as saying.

"We have plans to dig 15,000 to 20,000 graves in each of the border provinces or a total of 320,000," the general said, some of them mass graves if necessary.

Bagherzadeh said Iran was keen to "reduce the suffering of the families of the fallen in any attack against our country... and prevent any repetition of the long and bitter experience of the Vietnam War."

His comments came as the United States continued to refuse to rule out an eventual resort to force against Iran over its contested nuclear programme, which the West fears is cover for a drive to build an atomic weapon.

They also came as Israeli officials spoke of their determination to prevent Iran developing a nuclear capability at all costs.

A former head of Israel's Mossad foreign intelligence agency said in comments published on Sunday that the Jewish state had one year to destroy Iran's nuclear programme or face the risk of coming under nuclear attack.

Shabtai Shavit told a London weekly that the "worst-case scenario" was that Tehran would have a nuclear weapon within "somewhere around a year".

"The time that is left to be ready is getting shorter all the time," he told the Sunday Telegraph.

Israel is the only, if undeclared, nuclear armed power in the Middle East.

Wow, that is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO threatening. If I had to guess, the majority of those graves will be filled with dead Iranians.

LOL... well, Duh.   We won't be dropping men in there.  We'll be dropping in missiles.

Still, it's a sobering thought.  It's not going to be all video game flash and awe if/when we hit them.  It's going to be hundreds of crumpled buildings, and lots of families gone.   Sure, it's all dead 'them' and not us... but that shit will spurn an entire generation of crazy idiot suicide bombers hating us.

I would like to seriously ask if any of you lose sleep at night at the thought of Iran having a nuclear bomb? Do you live in absolute fear and really think, without question, that they would launch a nuclear attack on another country if they had one? Do you think they would let a nuclear device get in the hands of someone that would actually detonate a nuclear device on another country?

That's why you let Israel do it. The Middle East hates them already, what's another notch in the belt to them?

are you personally prepared for $15 per gallon gas prices here when iran mines the gulf and shuts down 40% of the world's oil exports overnight?

I hope all you guys who keep saying we'll just launch our missiles and drop our bombs and dust our hands of it afterword, remember and own up to possibly not thinking it all through.  I may be wrong too, but I just do not see it being so simple.  This image of the outcome was put out there in the media by neocons, the same people that told you we would be greeted as liberators in Iraq.  Ironically, these buttheads also are on tape saying we'll be greeted as liberators in Iran.  Oh sure, they're going to be thrilled at the US bombing the crap out of them.   You guys need to stop listening to this bullshit and think about everything that can happen.  This is going to be a much bigger can of worms IMO.

Iran is NOT Iraq.  It's a much more sophisticated country both domestically and militarily.  It's much wealthier as well.  The Iranian people just like American people are good people.  Their goverment like ours is corrupt and should be abolished.  Iran is a country of 65+ million people.  If you think they are going to sit idly by while Israel and the U.S. bomb the shit out of their nuclear facilities you are crazy.  Have we not fucking learned ANYTHING in Afghanistan and Iraq.  So what if we destroy their conventional military.  We destroyed Iraq's conventional military and look where that got us!!!!!!!!!!!!!  The Taliban is back to pre-war levels in Afghanistan even with NATO's help.  And you're right the same people that claimed Iraq and Saddam had weapons of mass destruction are telling us that Iran will be a cake walk.   

[headhuntersix]

They would have to hit us with terror attacks..... beyond that they won't have much left. Yes they have 65 million people...it took us 100 hours to crush the 4th largest army in the world. I'm more worried about the economic fall-out then anything Iran will do militarily. If they did manage a spectacular terror attack in this country, our retaliation would be swift and there would be very little need for occupation forces.

You keep acting like Iran has some super powered Navy capable of doing that for more than a week. They don't. If they were preemptively bombed and thrown into disarray, something tells me they wouldn't be in any position to drive around the gulf mining it.

It's interesting how you believe some Iranian propaganda and at other times throw it to the wayside. Fear mongering much? You sound like Bush. 

[headhuntersix]

The only thing I'd worry about is if they get their Diesels out into the gulf. They are hard to detect, but I'm pretty sure we know exactly what they're doing. I would not be surprised if SEALS  mine the pen entrences well prior to any attack. We're going to cut their coms, sink their ships, destroy their planes on the ground. Are Iranian pilots up to dogfighting US pilots at night? Every troop location would be hit, armor, fuel, warehouse, homes of Revolutionary Guard commanders, Quds HQ's, Intel/Police HQ's. Radio, TV.....it  would all go up quickly. I'm not saying we're attacking, but if we did, it would be quick. We cut Saddam's commo in a night during Desert Storm...about the same during the 2003 Invasion.

Exactly. Couple that with Israeli Special Forces and Mossad and I doubt Iran would have two legs to stand on off the bat, let alone mining miles of water space.

"Hey, our country is getting bombed into a million pieces, there's a fleet of Navy ships right outside our window but we're going to work extra hard to somehow get through them and mine the Straight."

I look at it more this way. What's to stop Iran from building a "dirty bomb" and letting Hezbollah have it to set off in Israel or at some other US interest? It's not so much Iran that scares me, but the fact that there's a possibility that information or material might just "accidentally" end up in terrorist hands. They should stop trying to build a bomb and worry about fixing their problems at home, like they're tanking economy and dissent with the way the government is making them into public enemy #1.

So what your saying is, Iran wouldn't  actually bomb anyone even if they had the means but they would definatly give out nuclear bomb information to someone who would?

So you're saying is that you know for a FACT with 100% certainty that Iran WOULD NOT bomb anyone? It's all speculation but it seems you fancy yourself the authority on the matter. Ahmadinejad, is that you?

Perhaps you have access to classified info. that would gauge the percentage chance that Iran would do anything like that?

you must be the stupidest person alive today.  That's all huh... So you're saying it won't have any effect on the region when we're occupying 2 and bombing the crap out of the largest country in the region.  Pull your head out of your ass for 2 seconds.  What will happen is a futher radicalization of the region and you fucking know it.  It all leads toward a more dangerous future which is what the cock suckers have been planning all along.  ohhhh take of the tinfoil hat... yea I've heard it all.   There are far more things to consider in what could happen than I can type up and you, in typical neocon fashion, say oh, no biggie...

I never claimed facts, I'm just a human being like everyone else asking simple questions, I'm not as gung ho about bombing a lot of innocent fellow human beings on speculation as some others are.

You asked, whats to stop Iran from doing so? Gee I wonder what re procussions a country like Iran might face if it nuked another country or if other countries even thought it gave out nuclear weapon technology that caused such a thing?

This is the real problem.....
Um Hugo ur coming late to the party..we've talked this one to death. i know exactly what could happen.

You believe Iraq had the 4th largest army in the world?  Haha who told you that?  You military guys will believe just about anything that rains down from the top brass and the Bush administration huh? 

[headhuntersix]

Um..I said during Desert Storm....our current operation was Iraqi Freedom...maybe u CT guys outa just run for ur bunkers now and give the grown-ups a rest.

Like I said whether it was '92 or '03, if you believe Iraq EVER had the 4th largest army in the world you are crazy.  What does CT have to do with anything?  Anyone that questions the official 9/11 story is a tin hat wearing big foot believing cryptological conspiracy nut?  That shows your level of intellect and ability to critical think, not surprising considering you're former/active military.  Try thinking for yourself instead of regurgitating what the "military intelligence" community constantly spoon feeds its subordinates.  Or maybe it's all those DU munitions you were exposed to.

91....slick.


During the late 1970s and the mid-1980s, the Iraqi armed forces underwent many changes in size, structure, arms supplies, hierarchy, deployment, and political character. Between 1980 and the summer of 1990 Saddam boosted the number of troops in the Iraqi military from 180,000 to 900,000, creating the fourth-largest army in the world. With mobilization, Iraq could have raised this to 2 million men under arms--fully 75% of all Iraqi men between ages 18 and 34. The number of tanks in the Iraqi military rose from 2,700 to 5,700 and artillery pieces went from 2,300 to 3,700.


Please don't spare with me on this crap.....stick to ur CT stuff. I promise not to debate which shady government agency blew up what building.

Largest army in terms of boots on the ground doesn't mean shit.  China would in that case be considered the worlds "largest" army.  When I mean largest army I mean in terms of machines and material as well.  I.e. tanks, planes, ships etc.  Nice way to spin your point of view.

I would also add that an attack on Iran could unite the mutually hostile Sunni and Shia factions of Islam into one unit for the first time in a millenium. Now, THAT, would be awesome.
