Please, explain me how a war in a country wracked by civil war (Syria) would lead to ww III with Russia, but not attacking another Russian ally, who is actually fighting ISIS and who is a much harder target ?
Sounds like more fake news.

Which is not an act of war. Can we have some common sense here? I know that it violates the UN resolution, but that calls for sanctions, not fucking invading an 80 million coutry which is a russian ally (another country with fucking nukes)

That calls for sanctions (economic) not an invasion

Trump's going to be busy if they go about with their China plans too.

I already said I think we should impose sanctions on them. I don't think we should invade them besides possibly bombing or dismantling their "nuclear power plants". All the liberals on here just seem to think that Iran should be able to break the rules with no consequence.
I'd say it's against US interest, but that really isn't a concern these days, is it?
Iran is vast, very geopolitical and has a fairly decent deterrence. It's also a neighbor of Russia. Afghanistan was neighbors with Russian allies an it's still a mess in northern regions.
Also it's the only country in the region with a somehow democratic government and a pro US population. So destabilizing it only means to make a vacuume for ISIS and other jihadists to thrive in Iraq and Afghanistan.
And that all not to mention strait of Hormuz and it's influence on oil market, but again, that's a good thing when you consider who is running the office.
