Don’t agree at all.

Why would Iran want to draw the US into a fight that is basically between it and Israel? Makes no sense strategically.

More likely they’ll let Hezbollah wage a proxy war in northern Israel, while they stand back and let world opinion damn Israel as an “outlaw state” and a “threat to peace”.

Lot less work that way. I just don’t see the US or NATO countries involved directly in the fighting.

We are not discussing a country of "logical" planners. They consider themselves the true heirs of Mohammad, and intend to launch Holy War. The rest of the islamic world must follow, or become infidel, and be destroyed.

I doubt if the "strategic thinking" extends much farther than that.
