What are the ramifications of our choices when it comes to Iran

Simple question. We are faced with basically two options at this point (1) war with Iran or (2) continued sanctions on Iran. So, this leads us to a very important question. What are the ramifications of each options? What will result from each?
Also, if anyone has a third option, please share your thoughts. What would that option be? What would be the ramifications of your option?

War with Iran has obvious consequences.
Continued sanctions will just cause them to act out more.
Definitely a fine line to balance

Iran keep looking like idiots on the world stage.
We dont benefit anything from Iran, they are just a fly that keeps annoying us.

I don't want America to start the fight. But I sure as hell want them to end it.
If Iran directly attacks American ships or citizens we retaliate with extreme prejudice. But until they attack us we don't attack them.
Other countries have their own militaries. They can use them.

I don’t know why you people act like we are going to be launching an invasion of Iran.
At most we lob a few missiles.

Option 3
Let the Saudis take the lead

I’m not sure it would take a declared war by Congress to stop these shenanigans.
A few strategically placed strikes oughta do the trick.

Best option is to declare a world wide ban of all trade with Iran.
Have all Western financial systems confiscate their money. Let the Royal Navy with USN and NATO support an embargo from a distance.

Keep sanctions until they fuk up blow something of importance up that belongs to us. Then sit back and watch the fireworks. It will be like firecrackers in an aunt pile.

Continue to sanction Iran, ever more increasingly, until after Trump wins reelection then hammer their arse. Send in the 1st and 4th divisions with elements of the 82nd and 101st along with the 75th Rangers. Also send in a two division Marine Expeditionary Force. Send five carriers with a full strike force contingent, send 100 F22’s, 30 B1’s and kick the door in with a dozen B2’s on day one. Knock their fricking arse off and do it right this time, not under manned like Iraq 2. Go old school Iraq 1 on that arse with half a million men and a thousand planes. Make it such a resounding beating that the Middle East will be completely shell shocked, terrified of what they saw
Or
Stay the frick out. Tell them to kiss our arse and frick off.
If we are going to go to War, go old school battle of Okinawa style of don’t go at all.

Third option:
Amass the largest collection of drones, remote aircraft, and long-range intelligent missile ordinance in the history of warfare. I mean everything we've got, all at once.
Put forth a completely devastating and thorough destruction of any and all facilities that allow Iran to create war and weapons of war without putting a single boot on the ground. Take out everything that gives them the ability to go on any type of offensive, leave them like Japan at the end of WWII.
Then we use our ethical hackers to take down any militarily-based tech systems Iran has left - leave them without a stick to fight back with.
We have the ability and means to do this, we just have to do it 100% and not half-assed. We can totally and thoroughly end this without putting anyone in the line of fire.
