Why? Because according to the script t probably spun in his head, we would go in, bomb a few places, the Iranians would gladly surrender, the war would be done in a week and t and the oil conglomerates would have control of the oil and rare earth minerals that is so abundant there, and life would be better for everyone.

Only the Iranians didn't follow the script. They fought back. And what little hope for freeing iran from the oppressive rule of the mullahs is gone, as their people unite to fight the Great Satan.
