air strikes only take you so far. You have to flood the area with a shit ton of infantry while the enemy is in shock or you are wasting ordinance.
Iran has a shit ton of irregular troops. I'd say they are already on the ground in Iraq, known to us as "shia militia".
We probably already have a deal with them.
