World War III: Checkout US Vs. Iran Military Strength by 9jaBlogger: 12:51pm On Jan 05, 2020
As Iran and the United States of America (USA) gear up for retaliatory and counter-attacks, analysts say the development could lead to a major third world war (WWIII).

If anything is to go by, Igbere TV will now analyze the military strength of both countries and the level of damages to be expected from any war.

Already, hackers claiming to be from Iran have hacked into the American Federal Depository Library Programme (FDLP) website late Saturday.

The development comes hours after President Donald Trump threatened to hit 52 Iranian sites “very hard” if Iran attacks Americans or US assets.

He was speaking days after a drone strike killed Iranian military commander Qassem Soleimani and an Iraqi militia leader.

Igbere TV had reported that President Trump claimed the US Army has targeted 52 Iranian sites, while Iran said it had identified 35 targets for retaliatory strikes.

Below is a capability comparison between Iran and the US military as researched by Igbere TV.

Budget:
Iran: $6 billion
US: $716 billion

Troops:
Iran: 523,000
US: 1.3 million

Nukes:

Only Israel alone can destroy iran. Infact Israel has carried out bombings on Iranian targets in Syria and they did nothing till date.

During the bush era they asked for permission to bomb Iran

They should kill themselves.

Other top world countries are smart enough not to involve in this senseless war.

Hope Saudi Arabia can codedly face Iran once aferall .. Just last year when Saudi bought some baddest war planes from Usa, I was wondering they are going for a war in Jupiter..

This is what world power used their power for ( War which they see as toy games instead of engaging in physical fights.

To all those religious brainwashed people We Christians/Muslims hope Trump is Masquerade worshippers while Iran practises Eyo.

Re: World War III: Checkout US Vs. Iran Military Strength by MycroftHolmes: 1:27pm On Jan 05, 2020
The truth is that there can't be a third world war right now (at least, not with the current situation). Iran lacks the military might to pull off a world war.

If it were to be a Russian General that was killed, I can assure you that the war would have started now.

Las las, na negotiation go end everything. Iranians wey neva chop belleful, na them wan go fight war?

From a feminine stand point, War is a necessary evil. World War 111 will usher in new technologies, inventions and a more liberal world...
Especially for women entrapped by religious beliefs in Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, Mauritania, Oman, Yemen, Egypt, Jordan, Iraq, Kuwait, Algeria, Malaysia, Maldives, Morocco, Libya, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, Bangladesh, Somalia and Brunei amongst numerous others, also women in northern Nigeria.

I am 100% sure WW111 will usher in new methods to living
Re: World War III: Checkout US Vs. Iran Military Strength by Whyem15: 4:26pm On Jan 05, 2020
What you all fail to realize is that Iran won't fight a conventional war with US, there are a thousand and one things they could do to US, no US citizen will be safe outside of US and Europe, thousands of militias will attack US bases across the world, they will strike, kill several soldiers and run before airsupport arrives, the strait of hormuz will be blocked and oil prices will skyrocket, all that the Iranian military needs to do is defend and they are very capable of doing that. Unlike Iraq, they have capable air defense systems and that alone has neutralised US airforce power. They might not have aircraft carriers or numerous frigates, but they have thousands of fast attack boats capable of lunching several rockets. Do the maths, how many rockets can a US carrier group defend against.
Even at that, they will be using missiles worth millions of dollars to defend against rockets that worth less than $100. They don't have the power to confront you directly, but the way ants swarm bigger beast, they will use their proxies to attack everything US in the middle east and when the US decides to attack them, Russia will be forced to defend Iran. They cannot afford to lose their most powerful ally in the middle east nor can they afford to have another neighboring country being overrun by US and becoming a potential base for future attacks against Russia.

@whyem15 there is no fairness in war.

There is no such thing as following convention or engagements of war.

If they attack the US by proxy, the US will attack directly... This reminds me of George Bush administration and the 9/11
