While this looks "good", the tribes do NOT have any heavy weapons nor real anti-military capability. Their terrain and fierceness stands them in good stead.

Meanwhile, the Islamic Regime, has increasingly more and more fires to put out and this adds to them. If the tribes were the only challenge and the Islamic Regime came down on them with full military power, the tribes would lose.

However, the Regime has to keep their military in reserve for anti-American reasons, so the effect of the tribal insurrection exceeds normally expected parameters.

Well I hope we can send them some soon! We owe some serious payback to Iran's leaders!

At least something is happening!!

Remember that other Iranian revolt that was quashed a few months ago?

I hope this one gets more traction.

Hopes up but not high.

Thanks for the news article.

There is likely a 99 percent chance that some CIA toad is sitting there with these tribes and advising them. For the Iranian government...they have to squash this quicky or other regions will get bold ideas...and you just can't have that in Iran.

Re #16

It does not help that USS Eisenhower is getting there, along with USS Stennis. In another report, USS Reagan is joining them, too.

Add the surge of anywhere from 20K to 48K American troops. U.S. may be stretching Iran's forces really thin.

Now what would Chia Head in Pyongyang make out of this development?

There was another FR thread earlier today about Kurd freedom fighters going from northern Iraq into Iran to recruit their fellow Kurds to resistance. Perhaps someone can find it and post the link here (I don't know how to do that being new to computers.)
