Iran and Iraq played dirty during the Iran-Iraq war (1980-1988) Iran used the kid martyr brigade for human wave invasions against the Iraqi army. Iraq responded by using chemical agents on the Iran military and populace. Both countries were supplied by 1st world powers, and neither country used its military arsenal to its fullest potential. By and large, Iraq was just starting to get a advantage over Iran when peace was declared.
Iran attempted to bomb the Osirak reactor and failed, Israel succeeded where they failed.

Judging by the recent guerrilla type warfare waged on Israel. I suspect the same would happen with Iran, as simulated by Iran's proxies. Israel would dominate the skies, and win a conventional war. Only to get bogged down in a unconventional war of attrition where Iran holds the upper hand. Israel will resort to using "illegal" weapons like Napalm, white phosphorus and be accused of genocide. The whole world will turn against Israel while ignoring the human martyr brigade of Iran. Israel will either have to back down, or it will lose to the combined might of the Islamic world.
Initially Israel would win, but it the long run it will lose. Unless Iran does something stupid like use a Nuclear explosive. Then Israel uses its 100? Jericho Nuclear warheads. And then the whole world loses.
Edit: Typo.

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has never said that Israel should be wiped off the map. What he did say was that the Zionist regime occupying Israel will vanish from the pages of time.

The Iranian President seems a bit weak on history since he has also questioned whether the Holocaust actually ever took place.
The faster this little pig is "wiped off the pages of history," the better the world, and his own people will be.
There is a significant portion of the Iranian population who favor a more western-like society for their country and not the oppressive, anti human rights administration they currently suffer under.
