The prevelant strategy would be to stand off on Iran, bomb it back to the 10th century, destroy anything taller then a story tall, destroy their water works and electrical grid and force them to rebuild.
Even though I think that the American military could pound out the Iranian Military due to the fact that America could establish control of the air very quickly, the Yanks can afford and don't have the manpower to occupy both countries.

yeah, i know iran would be bombed. i'm just saying i don't think just because troops are in iraq necessarily means they are all actually tied up performing critical missions on a daily basis. my experiences would lead me to believe otherwise, even though i have never been to iraq.
