"I am waiting for Israel to clean Iran's clocks. . . ."
Well I hope it doesn't come to that, but I cannot imagine that the Israelis will take Ahmadinejad's threat to "wipe Israel off the map" lightly. Iran has been supporting Hezbollah and Hamas in their terrorist campaign against Israel, so the Israelis do have precedent they can cite.
There are only three possibilities as I see it. 1) The international community, acting through the auspices of the UN convinces Iran to deal. (None of us are holding are breath for this, but it is at least a logical possibility.) 2) After the international effort fails the U.S. and a "coalition of the willing" strike Iranian nuclear facilities and support infrastructure directly. 3) The Israelis launch their own attack.
It's 1, 2, or 3. Take your pick.

Three.
There will never be a "coalition" of the willing, because of the wimps that are on the international scene. The UN and Iran will never come to a deal because the Iranians will say "No" to any compromise.
A massive preemptive strike on all nuclear and command and control facilities. The IDF will accomplish their objectives because they are the best of military organization in the world. Every war she has encountered, she has done it alone and she was won. And she will win this one hands down.
