The Pentagon is making "heavy preparations" for deploying American troops on the ground in Iran as President Donald Trump continues to weigh his options.
I also wonder if the Iranian soldiers are willing to die for the regime or not. Like the Iraq invasion was relatively easy because the nation was fragmented and divided under Saddam and many soldiers deserted and surrendered quickly.
Whatever disagreements they have with the regime, they are rallying around the flag. Now they could peel off the kurds, except they already betrayed the kurds multiple times, and this administration explicitly has. Allowing Turkey to target them and such.
This US administration has no credibility, and no trust, and they are too dumb, mean, greedy, and short sighted to do empire successfully.

Of course the occupation was a different matter.
