Trying to make them light it up so their radar locations can be flagged for EW and destruction.

They called yesterday and we have not heard anything so we probably said no.

I agree, it's long time that Iran belonged to the Iranians.

A few facts about the lazy opium addict Mohammad Mossadegh to the dumbasses who keep glorifying him:
Mohammad Mossadegh was NOT "democratically elected". He was handpicked by the Parliament, which was in turn selected by the Shah. There was no popular vote. Zero democracy. It would be like King Charles selecting the British Parliament by himself and having them handpick a PM and then calling it democratic.
There were more than 20 PMs selected by the same mechanism before Mossadegh, yet nobody calls them "democratically elected".
The Shah took the throne in 1941 before the CIA existed. He was not an "installed puppet" but a continuation of 2500 years of monarchy. His father took the throne in the 1920s.
The Shah had a constitutional right to remove Mossadegh for aligning with the Soviets, being an opium addicted fool, promising to share Iran's oil with "the islamic nations" and attempting to overthrow the monarchy.
The Shah in 1953 would have removed Mossadegh with or without foreign help. His army was on his side, as were the bazaaris. Hell, even the mullahs were on his side. The CIA was not essential in making this happen. The Shah was in exile for weeks before all of Iranian society brought him back. And that's what you call "being installed"? Operation Ajax was not essential whatsoever, it was only there to speed up the inevitable.
What happened in 1953 is also not why 1979 came about. Mossadegh was barely even mentioned as a real grievance by the communists and islamists who took over. They only decided to make him a glorified hero to score points with inbred third worlders and communists.
Screw Mossadegh. He got everything he deserved.

A half intelligent person that has had any experience shooting can figure out the basics in 30 minutes. Load, eject, reload. The most common jams could be covered by at least one person in their group. Doesn't take much.

Now they have lost their chief port as well as their oil producing province.

I’m sure the CiA has experience here. I’ve been around guns my whole life so it’s impossible for me to think it’s hard to learn, it’s just a tool basically. You would think with movies and video games many people would be able to pick it up quickly. But I could see someone with no experience really having no clue, being scared, and really having a hard time.

If you have a willingness to learn it. 99% of people could function, and shoot just about any rifle or pistol out there.
They wont be shooting dimes at 100 yards or anything like that, but they could load, shoot, and clear it.
Crew served and long distance small arms takes more time.
Drop a bunch of ak47's. You'll have a bunch of rounds flying.

MORE: More Iranian security officers have died during the current protests than in any other protest wave in Iran. IRGC-affiliated media reported on January 11 that at least 114 regime security personnel from the Law Enforcement Command (LEC), Basij, and IRGC have been killed since the start of the protests on December 28.
The LEC is the regime’s main internal security service and is responsible for conducting ordinary policing activities and maintaining social control. The Basij is a paramilitary organization that largely focuses on disseminating regime propaganda, suppressing domestic dissent, and conducting civil defense activities.
The regime has also deployed the IRGC Ground Forces in some areas during the current wave of protests, although it is unclear whether all of the IRGC deaths reported by IRGC-affiliated media are deaths of IRGC Ground Forces members. Iranian media reported that Esfahan Province has the highest number of LEC and IRGC deaths at 30, followed by 9 Basij and IRGC deaths in Ghazvin Province.
Data indicates that the IRGC has mainly been active in western Iran, which is consistent with recent reports of IRGC Ground Forces deployments in Kermanshah and West Azerbaijan provinces. The actual death count for Iranian security personnel is likely higher than the number that IRGC-affiliated media reported, given that CTP-ISW has observed reports of security personnel casualties in areas, such as Tehran Province, that IRGC-affiliated media did not include in its death count. Over 70 regime security personnel died in the 2022-2023 Mahsa Amini movement, which was the deadliest wave of protests until this wave.

AK Opererator Union has a video on this subject and that's why the AK is still relevant after almost 70 years
