    The US has had air supremacy in every conflict it has been in for a long time and it hasn’t won a single one of them. It would topple the Iranian regime with a ground invasion, but air strikes won’t do that. And the US would certainly lose an insurgent war just like it did everywhere else.

      Judging from all this I think the US will just kill the theocratic dictator Mr whoever and let Israel do what they want to do next, so there’s no winning or losing here to the US at least.

        Given that the regime has been around for fifty years, I really doubt that killing the head of state would destroy the state. They have a much deeper bench than that I would assume
