One possible scenario that comes to mind:

We attack Iran
Iran attacks Isreal
Isreal retaliates

If Isreal decides to attack ANY country in the middle east....it will escalate.
We do not have the needed forces to have a ground war in Iran.
Iraq would seem like childs play in comparison to an Iranian War.
We are far from "Winning" in Iraq at this time.(see tonights headlines)

If we cannot maintain control over Iraq, What makes one think we could attack, and control an area three times that size....with three times the population?

Seriously Ustwo....do you honestly think a War in Iran is a good Idea?
