I kinda started at 50/50 on this when things popped off but the likelihood is rising in my mind.

That regime is fricking retarded, and will drag the citizens of that country into the pits of hell before they let go of the power that they have.

The regime are bunch of despots and their acting like it. The reason you should not bomb without a clear path forward is you get this crap.

Iran would have to already have tactical nukes from China and Russia and do it to themselves for your scenario to take place.

That has not happened and the US would have detected any well hidden nuclear weapons.

Anyone trying to smuggle in any suitcase nukes would be obliterated by US forces.

Yes.

But not by a Western country.

*ETA: and not in this conflict.

well i'm getting downvoted as if i'm coming here as a proponent of the nuclear option. definitely not, just being realistic.

i personally do not believe that the regime will be overthrown from within, no nation on earth will be willing to kill off a generation of males marching them into that buzzsaw in order to expedite, and long-term supply chain disruptions are simply intolerable.

I believe these are the last remaining pot shots they are taking with the vessels etc. Their leadership and foundation is getting crushed daily and the people are getting antsy (and starting to assemble).

Not unless they do something stupid first like set off a dirty bomb or attach a low yield nuke or highly effective biological/chemical warhead to one of their missiles or drones and hit a US ship, base, or Israel.

A nuclear first strike will make the launcher in that situation a pariah for generations to come. The Abraham Accords would be null and void. All US bases in the region would be lost. We lose most if not all of our oil supply from the region.

If Israel were the one to launch the strike you could see the Arab states join together and declare war on them.

I think it will become very apparent that countless millions there would rather die than see Iran become a secular state working in cooperation with us and Israel.

I think Trump could turn Iran to glass and a lot of you chimps would be cheering it on.

It's a real concern. The longer this war goes on, Israel will get more and more trapped. The Gulf States will get more and more shaky, that is moving away from the U.S. Israel coalition, Hezbollah is fighting Israel to the north, Egypt is militarizing the Sinai Peninsula to the south and Iran continues to lob ballistics at Israel from the east (despite being pounded by coalition forces). With the Straight now closed and news of the Houthis in Yemen shutting in the Suez Canal access via the Red Sea, world markets will be hit bigly. As this escalates Israel could grow very desperate and nuke Iran.
