A wildly disproportionate nuclear strike on Iran would almost certainly elicit a Russian nuclear response. Moreover, it is questionable (in reality would be impossible) for US forces to engage in a successful ground campaign in Iran- a near peer adversary of the sort the US hasn’t faced since WW2/ Korea. Our military hasn’t been this weak since the 1930’s- USA/ NATO combat tactics and technologies have been disappointing in the conflict in Ukraine- while Iranian ballistic and drone technologies have exceeded all expectations (this has been very surprising TBH). If Israel feels it necessary to attack their arch enemy Iran let them, but we should not get involved- even our involvement in Gaza has been excessive and will cause decades of further ill will after Trump and (I hate to admit it due to his awful domestic influence) Kushner brought the region towards peace. Unfortunately, the Biden regime has had the most wildly aggressive foreign policy in living memory, while our military is at its weakest point.

I wouldn't call them that. The objective would be is to destroy their military capabilities. We can do that in 24 hours. We will destroy their air defense systems so we'll achieve air superiority. Then we can destroy all of the infrastructure that is needed to support their military.
