I don't discount that possibility but, imo, it would be small.

Do you think the Iranian Revolutionary guard would dare roll their tanks across the borders into Jordan and Iraq? With thousands of laser guided missles poised overhead and from GPS coordinates supplied to the Naval Strike Force...I think not...they'd be "fighting" on our terms.

Do you think the Iranian Regular Armed Forces would attempt the same? Here, I think of coup. remote but possible. You see and you know that the regular Iranian dudes on the street are not enamoured by the ruling fascist elite.

and let me ask, who would come to the defense of Iran?

Syria? nah....
