Mutual assured destruction goes a long way in preventing your country from being toppled. But it won’t end conflict.
only in the minds of those gullible enough to believe Russian propaganda (or spread it)
To you.

And in this case, “a war” is most likely Israeli pilots flying lots of planes, maybe some we’ve lent them.
And in those 30 years, Israel has bombed Iranian nuke facilities multiple times and set them back.
Most of those videos were made to justify Israeli actions along the way.
Wait. Weren’t you saying elsewhere that Israel is failing in their efforts?
Right now, Israel not only CAN attack with impunity. They ARE. Much of the Iranian government leadership is taken out. Military leadership is taken out. Manufacturing facilities are taken out. Defensive installations are taken out.
Bunker buster is next.
Bingo.
Because their form of Islam is cray-cray. The people of Iran are totally different. Blame a couple weak, well meaning US presidents and leftist kooks. And blame the Bush-men who were also weak and manipulated by a bunch of dumb hawkish, uneducated loons from the deepstate. If Israel starts warring and grabbing land from enemies?.. their own God will smite them.
And blame dumb, weak willed Clinton and his heretic, abomination of a wife. Above all, blame those deep state scammers who financed Obama, murdered in the worst way–Khaddafi , torn limb from limb.
Blame the nazis and commies and wacko Lawrence of Arabia and the British.
These same wars have been going on since forever.
and above, above, blame the Bankers and usurists.
“It’s been very clear from the beginning that President Trump views this as a protracted, stalemated conflict,” Rubio said. “And frankly, it’s a proxy war between nuclear powers, the United States helping Ukraine, and Russia.”

The US is preparing to fight an air war against a nation it is unable to invade and who has the support of Russia and China.
North Vietnam is the last country that fits that description. How did that work out for the US?
And, if you believe Trump, he is ready to start a war without even trying to get another Gulf of Tonkin Resolution. Let’s shred the constitution.

Persia (Iran) has been conquered many times----
But never has a foreign power been able to keep it as a whole unit,
while ruling as a foreign power.
Conquering Persia/Iran has always meant some combination of
- divide and conquer
- ruling various parts through various puppets.
- outside leaders and their outside forces adopting local customs

But we should of course be asking the most important question…isn’t it awesome that Trump had two giant flagpoles installed on the White House grounds?
Norman says good morning. He knows nothing of flag poles, but he knows where to find his frothing buddies.
This poll was taken in May, (even though "Media-ite ran the story as though it is recent) when the US striking Iran was a much more distant hypothetical.
It shows Americans divided 50/50 on US -->airstrikes<-- against Iran’s nuclear facilities. (48% favor, 47% opposed)
It doesn’t matter because Israel could just nuke whoever and say it was Iran.
World peace is a tall order.
People are wired for conflict, there’s always someone chasing more power, money, or clout.

Making war is a big business . . .
This is true…since dawn of man.
War was always here. Before man was, war waited for him. The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.
