I agree, the Dems have an obsession with trying to 'open up' Iran without removing the Ayatollah or IRGC.
However I doubt invasion is on the table, even for the Dems, if Tehran doesn't play ball.
At worst the Dems will put sanctions back on, but there is no way the Dems authorize even Preying Mantis 2.0, never mind a full invasion of Iran.
Do not underestimate Dems.If there is something stupid which could be done,they probably would do it !
And,they had good tradition.After WW2 they could provoke war with soviets under pretext that they care about enslaved poland,and get entire world.
USA would be only global power now.
Instead,they decide to made deal with soviets,and later partitioned British and french colonial empires between themselves.
JFK was fully aware,that soviets had no more then 30 missiles capable of hitting USA,so he could burn them loosing no more then 20 cities.It would be worst for USA then burning Sralin,but they still would remain only world superpower.
Yet,he made another deal,fully aware,that soviets would break it.
Now,they send only old stuff to Ukraine,when 300 Abrams and 300 F16 send there year ago would arleady end war.
Not that i complain,Ukraine hate us more then Moscov,so they would attack us next.
But - USA could break Moscov,and refused to do so.
