Iran don't forget took over a US drone in the air and landed in Iran. US Command and control and the pilot flying the drone lost it, this showed Iran has high advanced capabilities in cyber warfare. They probably going to try to knock out electronic equipment belonging to US navy and US military.,
Do you have a reputable link to this?

Regardless , body bags will return if it were to happen which is why I don't believe it will , I don't believe Trump wants a war but Bolton and his feathered friends are pushing for it and upping the rhetoric in an attempt to get it.
If Iraq has taught us anything it's don't start something you can't finish.

There won't be full scale war between the US and Iran. Give it a decade and Iran will be crumbling, or will have fallen to pieces. Not because of the CIA, but because the re is a massive demographic time-bomb in Iran. Too many intelligent men and women realising that their lives are being wasted away by a bunch of religious bigots.

And Saddam's Iraq was listed 3rd , once upon a time
That dropped down considerably after the first few hours.
USAF turned Iraq into the world's only million hole golf course.

By proxy yes, they are the most capable, especially when considering how they proved such in Iraq.
As the largest state sponsor of terrorism in the world they have proven they can indirectly.
Now, as for force on force conventional war, never.
Their military isn't advanced enough or large enough to go toe to toe, or tow to tow for that matter.
In fact, not many if any military forces in the conventional sence are capable of defeating our armed forces. Hence why they are the world police as it is.

Your golf course has cost over 4,000 American lives and 32,000 wounded, and they are still dying there (8 so far in 2019.) That is a pretty high greens fee. It has taken 16 years of blood and money (1.7 Trillion so far plus up to 6 Trillion in future veterans payments in the future.)

Obviously, it isn't.
If it were, we would have hit them when they attacked tankers, and shot down our drone.

They can't debate the actual issue, so they have to make stuff up. Typical strategy among that group.
