Ah, they didn't sound so similar in pronunciation here. Iran is generally said with the same "I" sound as "if" and a longer "a" like "ahh" or "run" rather than "ran".

This actually reminds me of the plot of Command & Conquer: Red Alert III,
Colonel Anatoly Cherdenko (Tim Curry) about to be overrun by the enemy, uses a time machine to travel to 1927 Brussels to kill Einstein.

Japan isn't necessarily Muslim, but they are a technological powerhouse of their own accord.

It's real but he butchers English so well that you can hear either Japan or Iran.

maybe he played GENERALS instead, where the GLA is muslim(although the games dint say it outright) and they took over many countries.
Generals was one of my favorite games, totally a product of the post 9/11 world stage.

Also ignoring the Islamic Republic of Japan what seems to be the problem with some army shooting missiles
