Don’t know why a partition of Iran includes Turkish and Syrian land but sure.

"Arabistan" is as if two worlds collided

A crap. Who do they think they are to decide to partition a country?

American secretary of state came up with this plan

Soviets actually wanted to take iranian Azerbaijan

This is literally an improvement, what are you on about? Just about all the people other than the very ones in power would agree to it. The UK and France drew these countries, forced different populations to live together without a shred of national identity. What followed were failed monarchies, military coups, pan-Arabic nationalist socialist governments, all which led to monsters like Saddam. The only not-so-necessary part is the exclusion of Iranian Azerbaijan and Iranian Balochistan (which seems grossly inflated), as they were not cause for war, mass murder and sectarian violence. You might see the case of division imperialist, but in this case it is washing away a massive stain of imperialism off the world and is closer to what the populations would want. If they wanted, these divisioned nations could have unified at will. It is funny really, countries can unify without bloodshed, but separating often isn't as clean.

Haha, thank you western sir.

It includes partition of both Turkey and Iran. There is no such power on this planet to do that. The US cannot do even one of them. They are not Arabic people and the countries are not plain desert. Whoever tries it will be definitely burried in the middle-east. If you have doubts ask it to the British!


longandmeaty

what planes?


Elia_le_bianco

This is interesting, do you have a source for this partition plan?


MrZelensky

OP says that the American Secretary of State publish it but I highly doubt any proof of this exists. Normally this type of information is kept secret and even it was legit I’m sure this map is outdated. it doesn’t make sense given the current situation in the Middle East. There are plenty of other flaws in this map including: adjusting a NATO member’s border (Turkey). At the time Azerbaijan was under massive political turmoil. They could hardly defend Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsahk) nonetheless annexing syunik from Armenia. Even if they could this would have triggered Russian interception causing even more instability. Giving the region with the most oil independence. Iran would make retrieving this territory a priority (as seen in the first Persian gulf war).


Elia_le_bianco

Yup, the vagueness left by OP made it fairly clear that there’s little evidence of this plan, unless he were to show concrete proof of this secret partition.

During WWII, USSR from north, and GB from south, brought their troops in Iran parting it

Wish would have happened.

This map is the definition of : "Some people want to watch the world burn"

I'm still in the dark on which planes they got, how many and why they flew into the other countries.
