Key Notes
Jiang says if America launches a ground invasion of Iran, it has lost the war, because Iran is impossible to occupy with America's constraints.
Iran's main counterstrategy is decentralization: embedded militias and cells can survive leadership decapitation, making occupation and installation of a new military regime necessary for U.S. victory.
Rob O'Neill says Iranian economic warfare is difficult to defeat and warns that even if the U.S. and Israel win tactically, a post-strike occupation would turn them into occupiers who steadily lose local support.
Gideon Levy says Israel has never truly benefited from its wars and that the present war will also leave long-run losses rather than security gains.
Jiang says experts are discussing 500,000 troops as the bare minimum, but he argues a successful occupation would require at least 2 million soldiers once support and logistics are included.
Jiang says Russia has a direct strategic interest in preventing an Israeli-American occupation of Iran because an Iranian collapse would put Moscow in a much weaker position.
He estimates that truly invading and occupying Venezuela would require an enormous force, on the order of roughly two million troops, which he treats as beyond America's current practical capacity.
