    Until Iranians start showing appreciation for the US and the West they can study in their home country.

    Iranians need to uncuck themselves from the mullahs.

    You have to realize the situation there. Its extremely difficult to obtain jobs and study in Iran. Thats why many of them have applied abroad and move to other countries. My cousin, for example, has an electronic engineering degree and had to apply elsewhere so he can actually work and earn money.

    in the past things like "jazba"/"Jihad"/"bravery" do had some value since technological gap between opponents wasnt too big. In recent Pakistan-India air skirmish people were talking about if Pakistan used F-16 or not. One of Pakistan foremost intellectual Dr pervez Hoodbhoy wrote this artical.

    "That age of grudging admiration for the enemy’s valour ultimately closed as warfare became increasingly depersonalised. Eye-to-eye air combat is unimaginable today! In today’s jargon, fighter aircraft are designed to primarily engage in BVR (Beyond Visual Range) mode. In fact, all reasonably advanced fighters — US, Russian, Chinese, or French — can detect an enemy using BVR Doppler radar and then deploy air-to-air missiles from as far as 50-100 km. This means having the supporting infrastructure of radars, data-links, self-defence jammers, and helmet-mounted sights.

    Once a missile’s radar locks onto its target, the options for that unfortunate pilot are only a few. He could try a fast climb and hope to exhaust the missile’s kinetic energy, or turn tightly and risk high G’s with subsequent blackout. But the more capable a missile, the smaller his chances of survival.

    Fifth generation aircraft — such as the F-35 stealth fighter — have tilted an already tilted playing field much further. In Atlantic war exercises these fighters have been repeatedly tested against the kind of third- and fourth-generation fighters like those currently in the Pakistani and Indian air fleets. While kill ratios are secret, they are sometimes leaked. Assuming the leaks are correct, in some hypothetical war just two squadrons of American F-35s could knock down the combined might of the PAF and IAF fleets fighting together for the loss of just one F-35 — or perhaps none."

    The US has no debt to train and give jobs to Iranians - they're not friends nor allies.
    Change the shitty regime in your country, then complain about other countries.

    Nobody's complaining. In fact, this is pretty recent and has started to take effect just a few days ago.

    Quite a foolish policy to punish young adults for the crimes of their government, which they likely have nothing to do with and probably hate anyway.
