      Well, Iran is almost 5x the size of Vietnam;

      it’s government has been in existence for almost 50 years, or maybe almost twice the time that Vietnam was independent in 1975;

      there is no “South Iran”;

      and Moscow and Beijing have been getting along for these past few decades;

      unlike boomers and those older, young men haven’t been drafted for 50 years;

      oh, and LBJ dropped out of the 1968 primaries before his 70th birthday, and Nixon resigned at 61, after he went to China and signed a SALT treaty with the USSR;

      but aside from all of that, it will be pretty much like Vietnam.

        Persia is also the 2nd oldest civilization that survives until today, after China. I think they know how to fight in their land better than anyone else.

      Vietnam v2.0: Iraq

      Vietnam v.3.0: Afghanistan

      Vietnam v.4.0: Iran

      Then sucking will continue until the Americans learn!
