The US is tough and well-armed.
I wouldn't say that they're unbeatable, though. Iran was test firing torpedoes last week that can reach speeds of 225 MPH. They super heat the water infront of them, essentially turning it into vapour, so that they can travel through a next-to-nothing environment with very little friction. Combined with North Korea's super advanced Submarines, they could really play havoc on the US's Naval fleet which plays a big part in the US's ability to mobilize. Let's not rule out that China has something like one billion troops if they call in a conscription. They'd outnumber American forces 4:1 alone.
Also, Iran has already threatened to nuke Israel if they're to be attacked...which would be bad. Imagine that religious outcry? Abomination of Desolation, anybody?
Tread lightly, Dubya.

From what I understand and I could be wrong the NK super advanced submarines are designed around shore infilitration to insert special forces and not to go head to head with U.S. carrier groups.
