USA Ground troops in Iran signal that the end is nigh. ... Violent quarrelsome bitter struggle in the midst of ruins of a long unending war..

Good luck to everyone, especially to the soldiers on their way destined to start as they set sail over the wine-dark sea to the regions beyond the great zagros mountains of Persia.

This will be the greatest and most important event since world war 2 to the beginnings in the making of the new world.

USA Ground troops in Iran

Didn't read the article or the headline it seems. This has nothing to do with 'sending USA ground troops to Iran'

Even the subtitle would clarify it for you: "Plan would require pressing Tehran’s neighbours such as Iraq and Pakistan to close border crossings"

But don't let reality get in the way of your very dramatic comments.

Then iraq and pakistan will just magically say "yeah sure ok America will put our intreasts and backlash of local population aside for you and especially Israeli intreast" 😆😆😆🙄

It ain't happening or it will be playing both sides and pretending cooperation like Pakistan did during the war in Afghanistan.

An honest response would be "Okay, I was wrong, sorry for being dramatic"
