but then again they were easier to beat that Iran would be...

Good point. I tend to think that if we went into Iran like we did with Iraq, we would face an "Iranian insurgency" that would make the Iraqi insurgency right now look like toy army men.

Hard to say how tough they'd be, remember Arab soldiers suck complete ass, and have much more bark than bite. I still don't think invading Iran is a smart idea. I favor a heavy bombing campaign, on military targets, and economic targets til they want peace. During the air war, we'd helicopter in troops to the nuclear facilities and then capture and destroy them. They'll eventually face tremendous pressure from their people especially if we say we'll stop bombing the moment you give up. Oh and we won't help them rebuilt, we'll just leave.
