You have to just know that Iran would love to take the Kuwait and Saudi oil fields. Possibly even the Iraqi oil fields as well. Why not? Syria might even help them, which would open another front on the ground. They could probably take the whole thing within a month, if Iran catches them on their heels with a well executed plan. Russia might even offer some support. THAT would be the opening of WWIII, as shit would hit the fan everywhere once that got going.
