Guerrilla warfare doesn't really mesh well with sieges.
They could always just bomb us or send a thousand troops and some tanks or something our way.

If we don't attack, they have no reason to give up. If we do, that makes us more vulnearable. And how do you suggest supplying the base?
Perhaps he's refering to the Syrian Rebal tactic? The one where, after you take a base or soemthing, you ransack it, take what you want and blow up the rest, and then leave. The Government can't get you then!
That might work, if we have enough transportation, explosives, and firepower to do tat to the first one (at a minimum).

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

Just remember, people: Castro started with only a dozen men and just as many rifles!

I'm going to do the smart thing here and disengage. This isn't a hill I paticularly care to die on.

Twelve is a boring number. We need 300 men.

Iran is even further away. From the U.S, anyway.

Guys, just found this, it might be useful:

http://www.totse2.com/totse/en/bad_ideas/irresponsible_activities/ovrthrow.html

Basically a guide to holding a coup. It's a bit outdated (It mentions the USSR), but could still be at least partially useful to us.

Damn that's pretty comprehensive.
 
It occurs to me that I am white. Very white. Russian looking too. Who else here is white?

Not that pale, but I'd need extensive makeup to pass for any non-European ethnicity. Except for North Africans and some Asians. Those are pretty pale, too.

My skin tone is actually just about the same as Xerxes' (A.K.A. the magnificent bastard portrayed in my forum avatar); another reason why I find that his image fits me so well.
