Not necessary, I think.
For starters, I think we'll want our embassy building back. There will be a post-mullah Iran, and if the students in Iran manage to toss them out, we'll need an embassy as a base. We might want to think about changing the locks, though... (/clancy)
As for the Pueblo - that's what we have SEALs for. And large underwater demolition charges (since there's no chance in hell we could sail her out of the harbor).

3 attackers killed by Syrian security forces .. 4th wounded.
Pulled up in car, shouting religious slogans, perhaps car bomb, gunfight ensues with Syrian sec. guards guarding the compound. Possibly a Syrian sec. guard killed.

I disagree. I think the "post-mullah Iran" will look like Germany and Japan at the end of WW2. And though the SEALs would do a very nice job on the USS Pueblo; sending 150 strategic bombers kinda makes a statement...hmmm? Nothing like some good old fashion carpet bombing to get someones attention.
