@MatthewEGunter @pati_marins64 Yes you are right, not only usa, there are lran, Russia and China as well.

@pati_marins64 It's been 110 years, @pati_marins64 Military Tech is quite different these days!

An Amphibious Landing in Iran and the Battle of Gallipoli Any war against Iran risks repeating the classic mistake of Gallipoli: a superpower’s underestimation of a determined defense strongly favored by geography. In 1915, the British Empire believed its superior fleet would be enough to force the Dardanelles and bring down the Ottoman Empire with relative ease. Generals and politicians, including Winston Churchill, Ian Hamilton, and Lord Kitchener, viewed the Turks as a backward army of “doubtful value” that would flee at the first salvo from British battleships. Reality proved very different. The geography of Gallipoli turned the attack into a nightmare. The Ottomans controlled the steep heights above the beaches. Once the Allies landed, they became trapped on narrow strips of sand, fully exposed to machine-gun and artillery fire from above. Advancing or retreating safely was nearly impossible. This is exactly the same natural wall that Iran possesses today in the mountains that surround nearly its entire coast. Any force attempting a landing in the Persian Gulf would immediately face steep elevations right behind the beaches, giving the defender total visibility and fire superiority. Beyond geography, Iran possesses something the British also underestimated in the Turks: the ability to conduct a saturation defense. While offensive and defensive munitions stocks are running low for the attackers, Iran is preparing a war of saturation. Thousands of drones of various types, missiles, and fast attack boats launched in swarms could quickly overwhelm and exhaust the coalition’s ability to provide cover for a landing in Iran. Logistics represent another fatal bottleneck. In Gallipoli, the Allies could not sustain the flow of supplies under constant fire. In Iran, the challenge would be even greater: supply lines could not rely on American bases in the region, which have already been heavily damaged and under fire for 26 days. They would instead depend on much more distant logistics, supported by an already weakened American industrial base. Meanwhile, Iran would be fighting at home, with underground factories, short supply lines, and the ability to open multiple fronts through Iraqi militias and the Houthis. In parallel, the Strait of Hormuz functions as the modern equivalent of the Dardanelles. Iran dominates the area with sophisticated yet relatively cheap naval mines, anti-ship missiles, drones, and its own navy. The loss of just one or two major ships, or landing vessels, would be enough for the entire operation to collapse, just as happened in 1915 when simple mines sank three British battleships in a single day. The error of assessment is the same as it was a century ago. Just as the British believed the Turks “had no stomach for modern warfare,” today some assume that an intense technological bombardment would quickly cause the Iranian regime to collapse. Statements like Netanyahu’s, “Iran is a paper tiger… A strong blow and the regime will fall”, dangerously echo the declarations of Churchill and Hamilton. Both ignored the fact that a nation of tens of millions of people, fighting on its own territory with strong ideological motivation, does not easily surrender to technological superiority. Gallipoli cost the Allies around 250,000 casualties, including tens of thousands killed, and ended in a humiliating withdrawal. It was a meat grinder that exposed the arrogance of a superpower when it collided with the reality of the terrain and the defender’s determination. Any potential amphibious landing in Iran today carries the same risk of becoming a Persian Gallipoli: where excessive faith in technology runs into an insurmountable geography, a mass of missiles and drones, and the overwhelming advantage of those fighting on home soil. Iran is the opening conflict of a multipolar world, a reality that America, Israel and probably the entire west still fail to recognize.

@KoolKeynes @MaxBlumenthal @AGDugin Ha ha 🤣 if Russia actually joined the war, USA will hurt more and more.

@MaxBlumenthal @AGDugin What a load of absolute garbage. The hit ratio between the two sides is about 500 to 1. The regional US bases keep supporting hundreds of air sorties and cruise missile launches per day. You spew cheap Russian-Iranian propaganda.

NY Times reports what anyone paying attention to the war on Iran already knew: "Many of the 13 military bases in the region used by American troops are all but uninhabitable" The US regime made few plans for Iran's inevitable retaliation and underestimated its capabilities

@agbnufc_ For me Get rid Eddie Howe first, the problem is Eddie Howe, not Tonali #nufc

I can't understand how willing the fanbase seems to sell Tonali. He's played 47 club games this season by the way, ran into the ground. How about get rid of the dross players and convince the European internationals to stay, just a thought.

@Alwaleed_Debasi @Ginkohro @NUFC_SA_ Actually,@PIF_en can show their ambition by decicive on #nufc mgr. performance ,you achieved objectives targets you got bonus much money, but if you are not achieve and failed all targets evevn club spent much money , you will be sacked. mgr.get high salary, not working for free.

@Ginkohro @oppnof @NUFC_SA_ Assigning CEO and sport director Is management We are waiting this assigned management

Sir Bobby and keegan didn't have a £700M to spend pete #NUFC

@indykaila @ManUtd @NUFC If next #nufc manager is xavi Hernandez,i confirm, he will stay here.

Exclusive 💣 Our trusted source in Manchester is informing us that Bruno Guimarães has agreed personal terms with Manchester United. Bruno Guimarães’s advisors are pushing Manchester United to reach an agreement with Newcastle United. Big news ⬆️

@Alwaleed_Debasi @Ginkohro @NUFC_SA_ Alwaleed you are right. Howe is inefficient coach, just compare to macro sliva and andoni lraola this is fact.pif must sack Eddie Howe at the end of season.#nufc

@Ginkohro @NUFC_SA_ Based on inflationary trends between 1990 and 2026, £700 million in 2026 is equivalent in purchasing power to approximately £280 million to £300 million in 1990.

@PeteGravesTV @TrueGeordieTG Brainwashed Howe supporters is blind and can not accept any facts about his inability in some skills,even every one has witnessed on the pitch. Eddie Howe is now a problem of #nufc , @PIF_en sack him now and go to xavi Hernandez.

I'll happily debate this with you @TrueGeordieTG mate. Yes it's been a tough season. Remember Sir Bobby finished 11th twice, Keegan finished 6th (3rd and a 2nd either side). Neither won a trophy either. It's time to get behind Eddie. 👍🖤🤍

@CraigHope_DM Yes they must show the ambition by sack Eddie Howe now. Many clever managers want to work with Pif #nufc #howeout

✍️ Forget debate about Eddie Howe’s future, it’s the Saudi ownership & club chiefs who need to step from the shadows & deliver 👇 Big read on NUFC state of play… mol.im/a/15671767

@Alwaleed_Debasi @DavidTa41816701 @NUFC_SA_ @PIF_en sack Eddie Howe and choose the right manager for you . idiot Eddie Howe supporters will always blame you, and our players, they told Eddie Howe did everything right. stop vicious cycle by sack Eddie Howe now #nufc #howeout

@DavidTa41816701 @NUFC_SA_ What you want them to do more david ?

The longest serving man in #NUFC coaching leadership He arrived to support Bruce and stayed to support Eddie Howe Capable of steering the ship until the end of the season Mr. Graeme Jones

@Magpie24_7 Propaganda.Have he seen Sunderland play with us, they dominated #nufc and win at the end, and Eddie have no idea how to change the game, many many times we witnessed.This is very very overrated him,if he top manager, Andoni Iraola will be world class manager.he must leave now

Wayne Rooney has a message for the Newcastle United fans: "Be careful what you wish for. Eddie Howe is one of the best managers in the Premier League, no doubt. Don't push him out. Don't force, don't keep pushing. I know they haven't been great in the league this season, they have had injuries and they have struggled to replace Isak and his goals from last season but just be careful what you wish for because there not a doubt he's a top manager." #NUFC #NUFCNews #Newcastle #EPL #EddieHowe

@Alwaleed_Debasi Xavi Hernandez is top coach,we must go to him #nufc

⚫️⚪️📊 Who is the appropriate coach for Newcastle United Now ? من هو المدرب الأنسب لنيوكاسل يونايتد حاليا؟ Your opinion matters رأيك مهم #نيوكاسل #NUFC

@MsiDouglas 🤣No one will tell you that the manager is not safe 🤣. If they told you manager is still safe, that means Eddie Howe is in trouble now.English source is always propaganda to support Eddie Howe, but the Saudi source told that he will be evaluated at the end of season.#nufc

🚨 Eddie Howe is safe - but change is coming at #nufc ⚫️ Support today... summer planning underway ⚪️ '5 or 6' first team players could go ⚫️ 'Introspective' Howe questions himself That and more. Read 👇 inews.co.uk/sport/football…

@PeteGravesTV #Howeout Eddie inability will make #nufc collapse. PIF should have a chance to get the right manager for them.

One final thought. And listen, I appreciate all the replies. Helps me gauge online fan opinion. If the "Eddie out" crew get their wish. Do you think he'd struggle to find another job? Or quickly pop up at one of our rivals? He's the best English manager by a mile.

@LukeEdwardsTele Ohhh ... we need to stop the vicious cycle now by sack Eddie Howe immediately. it time #PIF must go to the right manager for them.#nufc. Eddie Howe is Amanda man.

I’m going to say it now so we are all clear. I’m not calling for Eddie Howe to be sacked because he remains the best manager for the job and has over achieved for four years. My view hasn’t changed on that. Yes this is difficult and he’s under huge pressure now but he deserves a chance to rebuild the team in the summer and go again. And I’m very confident he will bring more success in the future. Thanks for your time. Nobody will get me to change my mind. #nufc

@CraigHope_DM Sack him now @PIF_en

⚫️ Eddie Howe on Sunderland defeat 🗣️ "This was very, very painful. But it was most painful for our supporters, and it’s them I think about now. There is no excuse, when you have not performed & have not delivered. We have not done our jobs well enough. I understand the reaction at the end of the game. My first thought as a leader is to front up & absorb it. You can use whatever word you want, I won’t challenge it. The only thing we can do is come back stronger from it. 🗣️ "Our technical delivery was off today. We missed three midfielders who would have given us control. It left us unbalanced. The game became transitional & we made it too much like they wanted it. We lost control in the second half. 🗣️ "They were two poor goals to concede but that’s not a one-off for us. We have defended poorly since the turn of the year"

@MagpieGroupNUFC This is Eddie Howe failed.and he is the main factor.don t hypocrisy.he lacks everything.Hi @pif_en you spent much money for him almost 300m this season, but Eddie Howe failed everything.sack Eddie Howe immediately #howeout #nufc

The players all rave about Eddie Howe. So why do they never put in a 90 minute performance for him? Why is our in game management so bad? Who will pay for our generationally awful summer transfer window? Where's the new sponsors? Wheres the new training ground? New stadium?
