#1 Why the fuck are we not regime changing Iran? Libya: done. Syria: done. Yemen: done. What was that, after the casus belli of 9/11 the plan was seven countries in seven years? Most of them are done but why is Iran still around?

#4 Why not escalate (again)? Because both Israel and the US burned though their stockpiles of ADA missiles and haven't had time to replace them.
And Iran might not agree to stand down when asked politely next time
