Maybe butterfly labs is leading the invasion.

After the recent false flag gas attack on the population of Syria, it seems the US/Israel/... is preparing an invasion of Syria.

Few weeks after a decade.

Way to edit my quote to serve your purposes.

Hearing lots of rumblings from military personnel that an attack is now imminent within the next few weeks.

Nope, never gonna happen xD

Funny but now Iranian government is able to do whatever they want, they even can continue working on the nuclear research program, then say 'fuck yourself' to Obama personally and nothing will happen.

Consequences of any military operation against Iran would be far worse than results of Vietnam operation. US government know it, and won't do anything like this due to suicidal nature of such activity. The only thing what they're able to do is impose another set of sanctions.

IMO Iran was just a way of putting pressure on Russia since they have defense agreements. Apparently they have found a new host to replace Iran - Ukraine.

So how long until Israel makes a preemptive strike on Iran given the current state of geopolitical events?

No longer than it takes an OPEC member to start trading oil for BTC?

Still circling the region, yet another strategic ally of Iran invaded.

The last thing the Middle East needs now is another war/invasion, Iraq and Afghanistan are shining examples of not how to introduce 'western democracy' into foreign lands.
Sadly there are too many powerful war/oil profiteers around, itching for their next blood money fix.

There will be no invasion as long as Obama is the POTUS. You need some of the "hawks", such as Hillary Clinton or John McCain as the POTUS, inorder to launch an unprovoked attack on Iran.

The us won't attack Iran, I think. They know it can cause too many problems in the middle east, and they could lose control of the region. And there is no public support for another large war.
I don't know much about the attack on yemen, but I heard Iran was arming the rebels there, and the previous government wasn't as friendly to them as the rebels. So maybe this was more Iran trying to gain more influence there?

[Bitware]

Oh, it's coming. The only question is when.

[Snail2]

Attacking and defeating Iran could lead to chaos all across the Middle East. In addition neither the Russians nor the Chinese would watch idle the fall of their last strong ally in the region. With Iran, Syria, Libya out of the game, both Egypt and Turkey are struggling with its own internal religious and/or ethnic issues, Saudi Arabia (and its wahhabies) would be the leading muslim power there. The question is would they be able to deal with sectarian clashes and IS together right on their doorstep?

Don't forget about ISIS, as they surely would engage in establishing new order in such important region.

ISIS will never establish a foothold in Iran. There are very few Sunnis in Iran. Most of the population is composed of Shiites, who are ideologically opposed to ISIS. And the Iranian general population is more secular when compared with the same in the Arab nations.

This guy clearly has several screws loose which is why other nutjobs figured that he´d be just the ticket for the job.


Military.com reports:

The U.S. will reserve the right to use military force to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon even if a deal is reached Iran’s nuclear program, Defense Secretary Ashton Carter said Tuesday.

“The military option certainly will remain on the table,” Carter said as negotiators in Lausanne, Switzerland, struggled to reach an agreement ahead of a March 31 deadline.

“One of my jobs is to make sure all options are on the table,’ Carter said in remarks at Syracuse University and earlier on NBC’s “Today” program.
