If that is the case were fucked. There simply is no will for a ground war in Iran. Not in DC and not with the Public. I think the Compromise is to destroy what we can from the air of their nuke program, and the leadership, and leave it at that.
There are some 30+ sites scattered across iran, many of them flanked by civilian neighborhoods - its like building a nuclear plant in the middle of Times Sq - which would need to be detonated by on-the-ground troops using plastic hand-fed explosives. Airborne munitions satellite-guided would be too large and imprecise to destroy the facilities. Plus, as I said, the fucking regime will simply rebuild them after calling in Reuters to take photos of dead kids from the airstrikes in the neighborhoods, which would further undermine the support for the attacks.
There are two inalienable facts: 1-iran, as the world's #1 terror sponsor will be far more aggressive with a nuclear umbrella, and therefore cannot be allowed to develop nuclear weapons 2-there will never be peace in the middle east as long as the current iranian regime exists.
Those 2 facts lead to an absolute requirement of the commander-in-chief to do what is necessary regardless of public support of the economic conditions of the nation.
WW2 is once again thrust upon us, will our generation have the courage and fortitude to do what is necessary?
