It's going to happen because a certain rogue nation at the east end of the Mediterranean (wink, wink) needs Iran taken down, but lacks the muscle to do the job itself.
So...sic their favorite bitch on Iran.

Why should western nations continue to be blackmailed by Iran?
Because Iran is saying, “Do what we say, give us what we want, or we will build nukes.”

Wasn’t there a whole war around ‘WMD’s’ and it turned out there weren’t any?
Can you say ‘going to war under false pretenses’.
Yeah, that never happens.

Another detail that needs to be added. Israel supposedly has several hundred operational nukes and the Samson option. If Israel gets nuked they will nuke as many oil wells, pipelines, and ports as as they can before dying off. The results would make gasoline $100 a gallon or more if available and cause a nuclear autumn or winter. Billions could die.
If Israel gets it everybody gets it. Because they remember WW2.
Why is war with Iran the first and only answer
In August 1960, the Iranian government established the Central Bank of Iran (CBI) and separated all central banking responsibilities from Bank Melli Iran and assigned it to the newly-formed central bank. Scope and responsibilities of the Central Bank of the Islamic Republic of Iran (CBI) have been defined in the Monetary and Banking Law of Iran (1960).
The Central Bank of Iran was renamed to "the Central Bank of the Islamic Republic of Iran", and Iran’s banking system adhered to the new Islamic rules that prohibit earning or paying interest in 1983.

I missed the Iraq war here on ATS, so it'll be interesting to see how many supposedly "anti-war" people fall all over themselves to find reasons to attack Iran because of Donald Trump.
I can't believe the last part of that sentence is actually a thing.

I believe there are "some" factions in Iran who want this, much like in many other nations.
Indeed, there are groups in the United States itself who are "preppers" and/or even Christian fanatics who believe the apocalypse is upon us. However, we don't see Canada or France poised to invade the US because of these fringe "groups"...
