Countering forces:
Iran: The Iranian military would be defeated within a few days. However, proxy warfare would continue throughout the region, including attacks inside
Iraq, Afghanistan and Israel.
China: China is too closely connected to the US economically to ever damage relations by stepping in to protect Iran. Yes, China has energy contracts
with Iran, but the amount of money lost in a ruined Iran is nothing compared to the economic impact of losing ties to the United States.
Russia: The Russian military is impotent. They are struggling under their own weight to keep their own territories under their control due to their
enormous landmass. At worst, Russia may use the opportunity of an attack on Iran to gain control of some old Soviet-era territories.
Guerilla warfare: War profiteers prefer this type of warfare, since guerillas will never win against the juggernaut that is the US military.
Therefore, perpetual warfare (and perpetual profit) is sustained indefinitely. Dissent by citizens of the US is silenced by the self-righteous
politicians who enjoy the wartime environment, who can use almost any reason to declare dissenters unpatriotic or even traitors for speaking out
against the war, silencing dissent.

In the future, you will either serve in the military, as a military contractor, manufacture military hardware, work for the government or work in the
service industry. Education will be too expensive to do almost anything else. Foreign workers will replace many of our high-tech jobs and a lot of our
positions in the medical field. What's ironic is that, while you are working in the military-industrial complex, a large percentage of your taxes
will go towards paying for the wars. You see, all of what you earn will come to you from the military-industrial complex, and a large percentage of
your income tax will go right back into it before its ever in your hands. Then they will slowly increase the taxes, making you completely dependent on
their war machine. This is a warning. Should this war be allowed to happen, then our fate is sealed.
