So, given the fact that Iran is weak, there's really no need to attack them, right?  We don't even need to worry about the nukes thing either.
Why does everyone seem to think that it's a foregone conclusion that Iran will be attacked?

IT'S NOT.
True, I'm not saying it is.  I just think it's dumb for us to badger them over their nukes.  They're only doing the nuclear research because of Israel's nukes.  They don't want to admit it, but they're scared of Israel about as much as they're scared of us.

We have them in a corner, so what we really should be getting on them for is their contributions to the insurgency.  I don't think we should invade them over it, but we should smack them around with sanctions and such.
