Our "alliances" haven't been so destroyed that if Iran and/or Syria aggressed against Iraq through invasion where the UN SC wouldn't do anything, hell at the very least the EU would be behind some military involvement, they don't want the Mideast anymore destabilized than it already is.
Saying Iran has allies is weak because they really don't. No regime in their right mind would stand against the US at this point in time, especially if you are siding with an aggressive hard line regime. Any allies Iran has are regional or countries that are 3rd world and couldn't do shit if they wanted too.
Also I think Israel could hold it's own, they have an awfully decorated history when it comes to mopping the floor with the Arabs.
One think you are right about is how there is no easy answer for this.
