Here is another thought I just had.

Iran can't win against the US and you might think surrender would save them from being destroyed. But what surrender means is that the US will install the monarchy and then control Iran into attacking China... yes it will throw Iran at China, just like it threw Ukraine at Russia. And China will win and Iran will be devastated, but the US will have weakened China prior to any US-China war. So Iran will be devastated either way. Given this, there is no reason for Iran to surrender. From their perspective, they should just fight with all they have.

US can't win against Iran. Much harder nut than Afghanistan and we pounded sand there for 20 freaking years. This is completely insane and 100% needless imperialistic Israeli ass-kissing evil bullshit. I am very ashamed to be a US citizen tonight.

Depends how you define "win". In terms of who could cause more death and devastation to the other, that's the US. But in terms of achieving the objectives the US sets out, probably they will lose.

I do a tiny amount of cursory research into making my predictions. Things like this: https://www.globalfirepower.com/countries-listing.php

Hopefully, this is not about failed neocon-style regime change but about turning a totalitarian theocracy’s nuclear ambitions into powder.
