"Iran will have to play the first deadly move, only then will we reciprocate." 
I'm not so sure. We've got our troops on the ground to the North, South (on ships), East, and West of Iran right now.
Perhaps we'll just start with a simple blockade. I doubt that we've been filling up our Strategic Petroleum Reserve for nothing, after all.
Lets see if the students can crack the Mullahs once we turn up the heat over there.

It would be a huge blunder if we attacked first. No way will DoD count on a popular revolt to bolster our forces in toppling a regime. Everybody has a stake in Iran and once we are deep in it, North Korea will come front burner.
