"If I'm going to hit Iran, first I have to get mad at them!"

I've never heard that Syria is supported by Iran.
They do have a joint defense pact that was formed after we invaded Iraq. But I don't think Syria would do anything if we bombed Iran. Iran would be more likely to try to honor the pact if we invaded Syria.
I don't see Iran falling automatically toppling Syria. Unless Syria is actually stupid enough to try to honor the defense pact and comes to Iran's aid.
"If I'm going to hit Iran, first I have to get mad at them!"
I've been saying that for about two years. Libs in particular won't entertain that as a rapidly-becoming-obvious fact...
Iraq was a campaign, as was Afghanistan. Now Iraq is a staging base. Why don't people remember Island-hopping, a la WWII? That's what this is.
The Bush Iran Doctrine: If the USA, any USA ally or interest or any USA forces is attacked by any nuclear device the assumption of culpability will fall upon the nation of Iran and the USA will take any appropriate action up to and including nuclear retaliation.
The Jig is Up BUMP!
