OK, wise guy, just how will the US repel a ground attack from 2 million Iranians into Iraq ? The front is 400 miles long. The south is marshy and bad for tanks. The north is mountainous and bad for tanks. There is no surrogate army to fight for us. The Iranians also have modern Chinese air defense weapons and Chinese anti-ship missles. The US would need 4 or 5 carriers groups in the area, at minimum, and they must be there before the attack. Your move. If you have a good plan, please let General Mandible know about it immediately.

P.S. Remember, cripling the Iranian oil production would be worse than shooting yourself in the foot.
