Yea China has other allies and interests in the area and Russia would give weapons. However, any actually invasion of Iranian would probably involve an insane bombing run that the world has not seen if Gaza is any indication.

iran has actual anti-air capabilities so unless the us wants to lose very expensive planes im leaning more towards missiles/rockets and ship bombardment

Yes, there will be zero American boots on Iranian soil no matter what happens. If there's a direct military confrontation it will just be shock n awe poo poo.

Quick question, where does Iraq stand in all of this? I don't have a strong sense at all of Iraq's government, the degree of America's control over it, or its relations to other powers these days.

the only reason why america lasted as long as they did in Iraq was because of Iran, 60% of Iraq didnt rise up against the american occupation because Iran was biding its time to take over that country politically and militarily which they now are in full control of.

There are 87 million people in Iran, they don't need raw numbers, but I don't think China and Russia would respect an arms embargo against them (especially considering the Russians can go through the Caspian and the Chinese can go through Central Asia). I don't think there would be a nuclear war, and also I don't think the Americans could do more than bomb some random targets and declare victory because there isn't an invasion force to send over there.

Speaking to reporters in Egypt, Macron said:

France recognises Israel’s right to defend itself. Regarding a ground intervention, if it is entirely targeted against terrorist groups, that is a choice that it has, but if it is a massive operation that would endanger civilian populations, in that case I think it would be an error for Israel.

The French leader said: “It would also be a mistake for Israel because it would be unlikely to offer long-term protection and because it is incompatible with protecting the civilian population or respecting international humanitarian law and the rules of war.”

Macron said France would be sending a navy ship to support Gaza’s hospitals within the next 48 hours.

Serious question: Why do you think China and Russia would come to the defense of Iran?

I’d think Russia wouldn’t want yet another hostile American client state on their doorstep like what happened with Ukraine, and Iran being part of China’s belt and road thing. I dunno the whole thing seems incredibly volatile.
