Experts warn sending U.S. ground troops to Iran would be a disaster

Military analysts and experts are warning that any U.S. ground operation in Iran would be a major strategic mistake. They compare it to past conflicts like Vietnam, suggesting it could become a prolonged and costly quagmire.

Some headlines discuss what a limited mission might look like, such as deploying paratroopers from the 82nd Airborne. However, the overwhelming consensus from the coverage is that such an action would risk guerilla attacks and trap American forces.
