2. Depends on the goal.

We're too stretched to take or hold anything in that country.

But if Bush and Cheney decided we were hitting Iran, we have the firepower to shut the place down, with no threat or ability to retaliate.

I'm just worried that something horrific is going to happen, and be blamed on Iran (rightfully so, or not).

If Iran's name comes up in something awful, then I don't think our decision makers will shy away from obliterating them.
