Probably worth pointing out that neither Israel nor the US seem interested in occupying Iranian territory.
Press x doubt.
They did it with Iraq, Afghanistan and Vietnam. They will definitely do it again if they see a chance to remove the Iranian regime and replace it with their own.
Do you think removing the Ayatollahs would make things better or worse for the Iranian people?
People thought removing the saddam regime would make things better. Turns out it didn't and it cost the lives of 1 million. This isn't a game you just play.
Of course, take a look at Libya too.
