Iran is a big country, everyone in iran is a single folk. Not like iraq, they are not divided to 3 groups.

Iran has some nice russian-made weapons, air force and more. They also have oil and gas reserves, they are not poor such as Iraq.

And, russia won't allow US attack to Iran anyway. I'm sure if bush do, russia will support iran with lots of weapons.
I think the US would win in a war against Iran without using nukes, but it would cost more than the war with Iraq, it would take longer, and more people would probably die.

But defeating the Iranian military is one thing, controlling the country's population and installing a new government without it going to shit or being overthrown the second you leave the country is the hard part.
