I'd feel that they'd overrun us. Try and fight us on our territory.
Run through Canada first since its mad neutral and then call on for South America and Mexico to take us from the bottom, they'll have us surrounded but idk how they'd manage to fight through the diverse terrain here in the US
Especially Cali. We got mountains, forests, rivers, cities, every type of terrain possible in one state. Our dynamics is crazy compared to the rest of the US

Africa idk I feel we'd all get attacked if we tried to build some sort of defense there.
It's very real North Korea has one of the biggest armies at 8 mill and I could only imagine China's and Russia's armies also

You're saying the US might lose with the most advanced military and as allies with some of the other most advanced armed forces in the world, including the majority of Europe? The US isn't going to just let this sort of thing happen. Hopefully they and other countries won't let a war even break out. It's 2012 for **** sake, and it's like we're stuck in the Crusades again.

American Politcians also regurgitate the same speech about terrorism, their enemies and God whenever they're asked about their foreign policy. Politicians have to promote first and foremost their thesis before their own reasonable opinions. It's not that I support anything about Iran's crusade against gays but Ahmadineyad is not the only one that has been indoctrinated.
His thesis is that Israel is the root of all problems in the middle east from its very conception back in the 40's. The US is evil and vile and only wants to get their hands around the middle east's resources and having a little bitch like Israel comes handy. Giving 'back' Israel to sometimes radical muslims from Palestine will save, heal and boost the middle east.
The US thesis is terrorists are everywhere constantly plotting to bring down the great country of the United States. The anti-hegemon leaders like Ahmadineyad that not only fail to contribute with their policies in the region but actively act against it are obviously jealous of freedom and would do the unthinkable just to wipe out Israel because he's a deranged man.
You be the judge about who is less insane.

Many critics from the middle east have been saying. some middle eastern autocratic leaders are their countries doom. They have flowery truths but do they practice what they preach? They treat their own people in some disgusting cruel ways, so dictatorial, plundering national resources in the end if an enemy wants to get rid of you, you hand him your country in a golden casket by giving him complete evidence and opportunity to strike in the name of unacceptable visible flaws plus i mean Iran isnt a modern Japan to shout too much. I have a feeling Ahmedinejad is shooting himself in the leg by talking too much and barking here and there.If he was intelligent, he'd go the China way, silent, develop.

Think about it though honestly.
We might have the most advanced technology but I'd be damned if we knew what other countries have up their sleeves. Wether we would win or not depends on how well our allies perform, tbh I believe Russia, Korea, china, and the Middle East would be putting up quite a fight against us.

I just came across this thread. Guys, there is literally an air force field here than nobody besides the workers are allowed in and what if all this time they have been working on bombs, and then I'll definitely die because it's literally only 5 miles from my house.

Even as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu presses the US for “red lines” on Iran’s nuclear development and Iran ramps up its rhetoric, Israelis don’t seem to be expecting a war with Iran anytime soon – and are not frantically preparing for one.
Yes, Iran is a dangerous regime, most say. But even as some get new gas masks and repair their bomb shelters, more than half say they think Mr. Netanyahu's statements about launching an Israeli strike on Iran are a bluff intended to pressure the US to do the job instead.
And even if Netanyahu were serious about going it alone, Israelis express a high degree of confidence in Israel’s ability to defend itself.
“We have been following the Iran issue for quite a long time and … [Israelis] actually seem to be pretty relaxed about it and I suppose that, following their answers, this is because they don’t really think it’s going to happen,” says public opinion expert Tamar Hermann, who co-edits a monthly poll known as the Peace Index. “They see it as a chess game by which Netanyahu is trying to achieve certain advantages in the international arena.”
RELATED – Bomb Iran? Why 5 top Israeli figures don't want to do it
There are other theories about why Israelis seem relatively calm about the Iran threat: They’ve long since accepted that they live in a dangerous neighborhood; they have confidence in the state’s ability to defend itself and protect its civilians; they don’t think Iran will strike anyway; and, for the more religious, they are looking to the same God that delivered their people from enemies who sought their destruction in the past, from Goliath to Haman.
RELATED: Netanyahu gives Obama the book of Esther. Biblical parable for nuclear Iran?
“First of all, I trust God. Secondly, we have very clever people, very good intelligence,” and a strong military, says Moshe Guy, a Tel Aviv resident visiting the Western Wall in Jerusalem’s Old City. “I’m not afraid – I’m much more afraid about the conflict between Jews in Israel – between religious and non-religious.… I see that Judaism is moving toward [being] fanatic, and fanatic is very bad.”
Indeed, other concerns seem to be more top of mind for Israelis, including the high cost of living, rising social tensions, and even a possible earthquake.
US SUPPORT STILL TRUMPS ALL
Earlier this year, a survey conducted by the Institute for National Security Studies (INSS) at Tel Aviv University found that only 18 percent of Israelis believed that Iran would attack Israel with nuclear weapons. Even if Iran were to launch a nuclear attack, almost 2 in 3 Israelis believe that Israel can handle such an strike, according to the survey, which will be published in December.
But Israelis were more confident in their country's ability to deal with all but one of the other threats posed by the survey – including war with Arab countries, sustained terrorism, and a chemical or biological weapons attack, according to INSS data shared with the Monitor.
The only thing Israelis are more worried about in terms of national security is a drop in US support of Israel.
“All the studies we’ve done over the past 25 years show that the Israeli public … puts great, great, great emphasis between Israel and US and views strong bonds … as a major factor in Israel’s national security,” says Yehuda Ben Meir, co-director of INSS’s National Security and Public Opinion Project. “Since it’s been made very clear that the US is more than strongly opposed to a unilateral Israeli independent attack at this time … [Israelis] don’t want it.”
To be sure, a substantial cohort – as high as 40 percent, according to some polls – still supports an Israeli strike. But a strong majority – 61 percent, according to the Peace Index – only want a joint US-Israel strike.
That said, Israelis don’t necessarily trust the US. Some 70 percent said they did not have full confidence in US Defense Secretary Leon Panetta’s promise this summer that the US will prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon, according to the July edition of Professor Hermann’s Peace Index.
“We cannot trust America,” says Mr. Guy of Tel Aviv, criticizing Netanyahu for pressuring the US to support an Israeli strike or launch its own. “Why speak about it, [why] make so much noise? They will not do it. We must do it.”
IS AN EARTHQUAKE MORE LIKELY THAN A NUCLEAR ATTACK?
This weekend, the deputy commander of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards said that an Israeli strike would “provide a historic opportunity for the Islamic Revolution to wipe [Israel] off the face of the earth,” adding that an infantry battalion would be able to “break Israel’s back” within a day.
It’s sound bites like that which always spur a flurry of calls and website traffic for Dani Avram, the owner of an Israeli bomb shelter company called Ani Mugan (“I am protected”).
“Every time there’s the right news … you see a big increase of people that want to fix their home shelters,” says Mr. Avram, who says that usually such calls drop off after a few days. “But now, it’s many more people and a longer period of time.”
Traffic to his company website has increased at least sixfold, he estimates, and calls have risen from a few dozen a day to a few hundred. Even on weekends and recent holidays, traffic has been similar to a normal business day, he says.
Part of it may be an improved awareness among citizens about how to brace for attack, thanks in part to a more organized campaign by the government.
“It’s not the same as [before the 1991] Gulf War – now we feel more secure because now we feel better prepared,” says Dan, a Modiin resident visiting Jerusalem’s Old City who declined to give his last name.
DISTRIBUTING GAS MASKS
But his wife, Ilanit, says she is worried – though she admits she has yet to get a gas mask for their third child, an infant.
The Home Front Command, set up in the wake of the Gulf War, began a nationwide campaign in 2010 to distribute gas masks to protect citizens in the event of biological or chemical warfare. Since then, they have distributed more than 4 million of the so-called “protection kits,” but only about half of Israelis currently have one, according to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).
The country has also helped prepare citizens by organizing nationwide civil defense drills every spring or early summer since the 2006 Lebanon war, when Hezbollah sent a flood of rockets over Israel’s northern border. But this year’s drill, which is set to include NATO and the United Nations, will be held in October and doesn’t have anything to do with missiles or other possible retaliatory attacks from Iran.
Normally, the drills include the sounding of a siren, the distribution of messages via SMS, and requests for civilians to go to a designated secure place as they would in an emergency. Local governments are also involved in emergency response simulations.
Instead, the focus this year will be preparing for an earthquake. The last destructive earthquake in Israel occurred in 1927, and with major quakes occurring every 80-90 years on average, some say the country is due for another.
“I know it’s much more sexy to talk about Iran, but an earthquake is much more likely statistically,” says Nissan Zehevi, spokesman for the Home Front Defense Minister. But, he adds, “We’re ready for any scenario.”
In the meantime, says Hermann, Israelis don’t seem to be batting an eye – noting among other things the recent uptick in home sales lately.
“Normally people do not invest in real estate when they think that their new homes are going to be destroyed by missiles from Iran,” she says.

Iran has said time and time again that their number one goal is to destroy Israel. Israel is obviously upset with Nuclear Iran because of this threat so they will target and destroy an Iranian plant I think in the near future. It isn't Israel's fault Iran is so evil, and Iran should know by now that the US is a much more powerful military and economic power.
