You won't.
I guarantee it.

I did not believe those who said Saddam possessed Weapons of Mass Destruction. Truth be told, it turns out that the entire cause and justification for invading Iraq was based on lies, deceptions, and illusions.
Saddam halted oil exports for 30 days in solidarity with the Palestinian people. 11 months later Bush launched his 'Shock and Awe.'

Today, I do not believe those who say Iran is seeking the construction of nuclear weapons.
I believe Iran is processing nuclear material for their own power needs and for the power needs of the world. I believe Iran intends to enter the legitimate market to provide nuclear fuel for peaceful purposes.
Iran's policies to strengthen itself economically are a huge obstacle and threat to those who are attempting to fully monopolize all of mankind.

To those who will quote proclamations of Iranian hopes for End Times War:
There is no difference between these lines of rhetoric as compared to Christians awaiting the deadly battle of Armageddon. The armies of Jesus battling the armies of the Beast. Actual humans slaughtering actual humans.
No different from the Jews who are anticipating the destruction of Al-Aqsa and the Dome of the Rock in order to build the Third Temple to greet their King. Their Messianic King who will conquer and defeat all in order to secure an eternal Israel through military might. The same principles followed by Patriarch Joshua in his military campaigns against the original inhabitants of Palestine.
We have to stop letting words scare us. Talk is cheap.

False Flag
If any terrorist attack or "magic" missile/bomb triggers an Iranian invasion, I will be HIGHLY suspicious of it being a False Flag.
USS Liberty...
WTC Tower 7...
9/11 Pentagon structural wall damage...

Iran suspends oil exports to France, UK
Iran sets conditions for oil to European nations
Iraq cuts off oil exports
4. When we threaten to cut off Iran's oil, Iran threatens to cut off Iran's oil, which is absolutely intolerable. What would we do without that oil? And what good is buying it if they want to sell it?

I won't be swayed by the profit making tactics of fear or "Market Uncertainty".
Mark up gasoline and we'll conserve better, drive more wisely, and engineer free or cheaper power technology. But I will not be frightened like a cattle cow about gas prices to justify murdering Iranians.
Peace.
I think $20 per gallon is just the kick in the ass the people need to take real steps to energy independence. This slow boil of ever increasing prices isn't getting the fire going hot enough under people's butts, I'm all for flooring the gas pedal into the next paradigm.
Psst....little tidbit of information.....
The US doesn't get oil from Iran. Haven't for a while.
If Iran stopped selling oil completely, who would that hurt? Mainly themselves. It's not like they are exporting anything else of value.

The United States EXPORTED enough oil last year that we shouldn't have had to pay more than $2.00/gallon. I'm so far beyond disgusted with our government. Iran is no threat to the US, I agree OP. S+F.
