The United States forces is not spread "thin". We have 130k troops in Iraq. That's less than 1/4 of the US Marine Corps - the smallest unit of our armed forces. Trust me, there is lots more to go around.
Iran isn't about to do anything. Seems to tme that it would be pretty stupid for Iran to attack Iraq when we have such a large concentration of troops there.
The whole thing about nuclear weapons is that they'll never be used. This is what saved us during the cold war. If Iran was to lob a nuclear bomb into Iraq or even Isreal, the return volley from the US would be ten fold - and would turn Iran into a huge glass parking lot for the next thousand years.
