Reply #4: This Time The US Will Pay in Buckets of Blood

[atreides1]

The diffrence is that the Iranian military has not been denied training or equipment because of UN sanctions, they also happen to have more then enough SSM to hit all US troop concentrations in the
region, to include the headquarters of the US Navy 5th Fleet and
CENTCOM.

They have equipment that they have been purchasing from the Russians and other countries over the course of the last several years.

I would bet that not all of those fishing boats in the Gulf are there just for the fish. And it would not be far fetched to think that Tehran knows the comings and goings of coalition naval forces.

The US equipment on the ground in Iraq, is not well maintained, the logistics situation has not gotten any better, ammunitions stocks are
said to be low, morale of the troops isn't high.

This is an indication of a disaster waiting to happen.
