Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1247098 Listen to this fine icelandic man right there. Iran would be nowhere near Iraq or Afghanistan, it would be on a whole new level. Iraq would be like a jumping castle in comparison. Also don't forget that Iran is being backed DIRECTLY by China and Russia. Why do you think the Israelis are all about talk and no action year after year? That's right, because they're pissing themselves in face of the consequences and won't gamble this high - Save for a few of their crazy power-hungry zionist leaders of course.
