The US government is going to hell

[Damen]

Blowing up Iran will in turn radiate and our annihilate Oman, Yemen, Iraq, Syria and god knows what else. >_> We won't do that.

This is the USA we're talkin about here. We aren't above nuking several countries so we stay alive a bit longer.

This ends in Armageddon.

[Grand Poobah Marx]

Three things:

1. wethepeople:  We have lost Iraq, but not for the reasons you've stated.  You say we've lost "to a bunch of towel-heads with bombs on their backs."  This is true too, but that's because it's an insurgency.  There are no big battles, only small skirmishes, only small bombimgs.  If we fought Iran, it would be a different war, one we might do ok at.

2. In response to Damen:  Empires fall.

3. In responsed to iron soldier: nuking Iran isn't gonna bring armageddon, who'd nuke back?

dont forget our "friends" in israel, pakistan, india, turkey, the uae, afghanistan, and saudi arabia. and all those "stan" countries (uzbekistan, turkmenistan, kyrgyzstan, etc.) oh, and RUSSIA. if radiation were to spread there, i dont think they'd be too pleased.

assuming we use lots of radiation. after all, chernobyl managed to spread from ukraine to all over western europe, and it got detected by the west when radiation in scotland was 1000x its normal level.

Look at it this way. We're currently involved in Afghanistan and Iraq. Iran would make the third Middle East country, after that, there is no going back. I'm a Christian (just a reason why I think so, no religious debate please) and getting so involved in this Muslim area of the world could very well lead to a universal Jihad and a religious-fueled war. We've all seen how nasty religiously fueled wars can get due to Zeal, and with today's technology, its going to reach a whole new level of nasty.
