17. I agree with you. They'd like to but they can't.
Israel has to be concerned about what kind of reaction Hezbollah and Hamas would have and we just don't have the military resources to attack Iran and hang onto Iraq and it's oil. Iran's allies in Iraq could make our position there untenable. Hell, we are barely holding on in Afghanistan because of the commitment of our resources to Iraq. 4 years ago attacking Iran was the neocon's wet dream. Not possible now.
