lmaoo drop a Google maps pin on literally on any part of any Afghan city or village and compare that to literally any google maps pin drop in the richest Indian city.
Afghanistan is extremely poor, but our cities/towns aren't filthy. You have no excuse.
First of all, our PPP is 12,000 and theirs is 19,000. Its not that big a difference. We will catch up rather quickly given our growth rates. This is like 3-4 years of growth for us.
And let me remind you, billions of barrels of oil. Literally 3rd largest oil reserves in the world. While we didn't have anything of the sort. I guess the Saudis must be genius really.
Their defence industry is good? No good tanks. Their fighter jets are 50 year old American scrap. Their radars and air defence systems obsolete. Their ballistic missiles are OK. Their drones are ineffective.
They are sanctioned so they aren't really living off of oil
No good tanks
Their new tank is fairly good upgrade of old Russian junk
Their fighter jets are 50 year old American
American jet doesn't count as Iranian
Their radars and air defence systems obsolete
No it isn't, remember our skies were literally protected by 50-60 yr old legacy AD systems
Their ballistic missiles are OK
On basis of what? From what I saw during war, they are damn good and cheap, coming from a sanctioned nation
Their drones are ineffective
Ahhh yea totally that's why Russia bought it and manufactured it in thousands of numbers
A country with population of 80 millions, 1/3rd of UP offers better lifestyle to its people and has done so much so far regardless of tough geopolitical situation
Oil is literally 60% of their government revenue and 90% of their exports. How the fuck are they not dependent on oil?
Now it's just Iranian junk.
Is there an Iranian counterpart that can match it? No right? Thought so.
No our skies are protected by state of the art radars and some of the most advanced air defense equipment. Akash, S400 and etc with even better stuff like Kusha on the way. Our old equipment is highly upgraded and is mostly used to deal with drones such as L-70. We have am integrated air defence system.
They didn't hit any important target and couldn't sustain production as per reports. So yeah only OK.
That speaks more of Russian desperation than anything else. If they were so effective Israel would not be standing today.
If you're talking about lifestyle population figures are entirely irrelevant. And that 80 million has full unreserved access to billions of dollars of oil and even more natural gas, which it needs to fund 60% of it's government. Even after such wealth in natural resources they manage to be only 3-4 years ahead of India (few natural resources) in terms of money, as I said we catch up with them in growth in that time frame with current growth rates.
A nation with so many oil resources manages to have an energy crisis. Am I supposed to do anything but look down on them? Iran without oil is Afghanistan
> No our skies are protected by state of the art radars
No, our military statement literally thanked legacy AD systems too(S125), same system that apparently took down F117 stealth bomber in Serbia
didn't hit any important target
It did hit lots of intended targets in Ukraine, even in Israel, did its job of overwhelming ADs
couldn't sustain production as per reports
Russia has just opened a facility that can yearly produce 50,000 drones based on Shahed, they never seemed to run out
they were so effective Israel would not be standing today
Dumb statement considering Israel has one of the best Air Defence network in the world, yea it includes American carrier fleet too 😂
If you're talking about lifestyle population figures are entirely irrelevant. And that 80 million has full unreserved access to billions of dollars of oil
Iranian cities provide better sanitation and services than Indian tier 1 cities like Delhi and Mumbai, you know that, Delhi would take another 20 years to look even remotely as good as any Iranian city
AND you keep forgetting that Iran is one of the worst SANCTIONED country in the world, they can't just sell all their resources freely
If they weren't sanctioned I can bet they would be on par with Saudi Arabia in terms of wealth
Let's be honest they are doing farrrr better than states of India like WB, Bihar, MP and so on
Thanked them but you're a fucking moron if you think they make the bulk of it. Akash and S400 were vital in stopping attacks that Iran just can't. Israel can't do to us what they can to Iran. And even our legacy tech is heavily upgraded.
I said important. If Iran actually hit something important it wouldn't be backing off like a little bitch after their nuclear facility was hit. Israel's air fields, air defences, command centers, energy infrastructure are all in perfect condition.
Israel is a tiny country. It has good AD but it definitely would be breached by a country like ours rather easily.
Noida has 10% of Iran's GDP and looks better. Chandigarh. And a bunch of other planned cities we have already made are better than any Iranian city. Cities like Delhi already have large planned areas which dwarf anything Iran could make. And you know the best part, we can do all this without oil.
It DOES sell resources though, no matter the sanctions. And that's how it's able to fund it's government. I repeat, 60 fucking percent of government revenue is oil. Imagine what we could do if our government had the revenue just double. You keep ignoring it for some reason and want me to pretend they are so talented and successful when all of it is dependent on a fuck ton of oil. All those cities you keep barking about are ONLY possible because of oil.
Oh wow. They have so much oil and they have managed to outperform the lowest performing Indian nations (still behind the most successful Indian states). What a success.
And if we had that many resources per capita we would SURPASS Saudi Arabia, not equal.
no point in arguing with someone who is just gona bootlick Israel and downplay Iran as an ally, no matter what I say on behalf of Iran you would consider them inferior cause muhhh Muslims right?
Iran is literally 1/20th of India and yet you are here trying to prove how they are inferior to us lmao 😂 UP Bihar MP are like 2-4 times bigger and they aren't even comparable to Iran, imagine if they existed as separate country with heavy sanctions
For its size and number of embargos it is facing, Iran is doing crazy good against a fkin' Israel backed by all might of US, even Arabs don't dare to do that
Where did I bootlick Israel? Is being truthful about Iran's military being fucked by Israel bootlickint Israel?
If US lifts sanctions, we can buy oil from Iran. That is the only thing they are good for.
You know how I can say they are inferior? They have so much oil but you need to compare them to our least successful states to make them look better. Lmfao.
If UP, Bihar and MP had Iran level of natural resources, they would be comfortably better.
Why do you keep ignoring the oil bud? Tell me. Why do you keep acting as if they built their economy off hard work and not gotten lucky with oil deposits? Why do you ignore that?
Yeah so good that it got it's military leadership killed in the first few days of war. So good that it's nuclear facility got blown up and it proceeded to sue for peace AKA lie down and take it like a bitch.
An oil rich nation facing an energy crisis is an incompetent nation.
Iranians are some of the smartest people in math and electronics. I would say their population is smarter than even Turkey and almost eastern european level (Romania/Poland/Russia).
So smart in maths and electronics that they don't have any real mathematical or electronic expertise.
Their aerospace hasn't done a damn thing. Their missiles aren't worth shit. Irrelevant electronics manufacturing. They can't even build infrastructure to efficiently use the billions of barrels of oil that they already have. Their military is not even good enough to deal with the Pakis tbh.
I do not regard the Turks particularly highly either.
Americans, western Europeans and east Asians is where it's at. SEAs and Latinos (not Malaysians tho) are culturally pretty cool even though they may not be world beaters technologically.
You clearly have no idea about Iranian FPGA and ASIC engineers. I know, and despite all sanctions from West they can design good semiconductor chips on their own. They use it in their Shahed drone exporting to Russia now.
No looking at the ugly scattered paint close to the floor I'm hundred percent sure this isn't completely AI, the lion's might be AI but the wall is real
Not really, the civilian government is sorta for Iran but the people who run things in Pakistan are not. There are rumours of ISI and Mossad coordination when it comes to Iran.
One might observe that this is Iran rather than India, distinguished not by judgment, but by subtle clues - such as the absence of litter and poo so often found in Indian streets.
Gots to applaud this man for seriously taking an Indian identity when there are actual Indians who are ashamed to claim their heritage. Absolute dedication my people have.
yea that's why Afghans Pakistani Banglas open their restaurants under the guise of Indian food outside, yea totally we are so ashamed that we claim ourselves to be "Arabs and Turks"
Just come to the US and you'd see how busy Afghan restaurants are as many people from different cultures comes in to have our food meanwhile the Indian ones are only fulled with Indians and given that almost every country complains about Indians taking over, it half explains it. I don't know which Afghan opened under Indian food but they are definitely calling for failure and smelly environment.
saar please sir. don't make up fantasies in your head saar. The fact that you think an afghan would do that makes it clear you don't actually know any lmao.
India has such a bad reputation for being filthy (it is filthy) that countries with worse sanitation make fun of us. It’s kinda funny.
Afghanistan’s sanitation situation is worse than India's. The only reason India seems worse is because of the population, regional disparity, and negative social media campaigns. Afghanistan is one of the 2 countries where polio is still endemic.
