Exactly Given time the Iranian threat will increase beyond the ME if it is not stopped.
Cripes. It sounds like you need 300 Spartans.
It would be about the same as the entire Canadian Army.
Shows what you know. The navy and air force blow but our army is quite fine.

international crime syndicate that some investigators believed was collecting $1 billion a year from drug and weapons trafficking, money laundering and other criminal activities.
For some reason that sounds extremely familiar. I can't think where from... F#ck it, let's bomb the crap out of them!
There are far better reasons to bomb Hezbollah than for their drug and criminal enterprises. I'm sure they looked at the CIA's Case history for ideas of how to maintain funding should Iran turn off it's monetary spigots.
Hezbollah is not a player for a future ME where peace is happening. Some current players can only play the conflict game, not the peace game. Those types of players will have to be dealt with somehow.

I did not say anything about laws.
Fair enough
What specifically are "people of Iran" to decide if not laws?

Israel's a great place Economy is booming, great night life, great culture, centre of the Abrahamic faiths. Things get better there year by year while the peripheral states have gone down and that is all because of Iran. Only when Iran is taken out can the region recover, it's a fact that some naïve people just don't see clearly.

Too bad they throw like millions of people out of their ancestral homes (before the Zionists showed up like little Identity Politick Nazi's, of all things).
Too bad after being throw out they were treated like worse than dirt. Apartheid yo.
But hey after defeating their will many years over, not that nice mega wall about complete (apartheid, yo). Serious Iron Curtain BS.
Oh yeah blah blah "God's People" blah blah it was theirs like 3000 years ago... Well I guess we all better start packing our bags and handing every thing over the to Native's. Unlike the Palestiian's, "we" actually were the ones that genocided them.
And then your Iran BS. We over there doing all the same BS you say Iran is, but we're doing it in their little neighborhood half way around there world from here. Israel doesnt even need us anymore for -actual Defense- (opposed to all they Offense], so good luck with that noise. Oh yeah, and we've been over there doing all that 100 times worse international destablization globetrotting BS.
I had to stop looking over your words there, as its all so completely deluded and hypocritical, like surreal, I could whip out ongoing responses like those. And here I havent even gotten into the actual history of the US (er crony Two Party stooges that constantly over many decades as the Ultimate Tyranny of the Era starting snip with them to the tune of their "Great Satan" term is disturbingly accurate and called for.
he Iranian people can't decide nothing, their state has been hijacked by nutjobs. That country needs freeing just like the Germans were when their state was hijacked by nutjobs.

Iran isn't a failed state where the population have been starving to death for 20 years. They'd easilly withstand 50 years of sanctions and would need 10 at most for an ICBM nuke, plus Iran becoming a nuclear state will cause sunni-shia nuclear arms race.

Recent history pains a different narrative. There was a nutjob running Iraq. He is dead now and the country is in a far worse state. The same in Libya. Gaddafi was taken out and the place is a mess.
That is one of the reasons Assad in Syria has so much support.
