the only way Iran could force US to back down is to attack the regional oil infrastructure, causing a energy crisis thus crashing the US financial market.

Just attack all the oil tankers passing by, Thump only fear a market crash at this point.

Yes an energy crisis can potentially cause a dollar crisis and crash the bond market spiking yields. The AI bubble could burst too. These are all interrelated.

I really don't get where their confidence comes from. Historically the area of Iran has been subjugated many times by outsiders. More than other nations. Yeah maybe you're better off than Syria but thats not a high bar. Sure Persian culture etc won out. But we are talking a pure hard power battle here. You need to be realistic about your own power so you can make the best decisions. This really isn't time to let pride or whatever cloud your judgement.
let me point out the importance of ideology.

Iraq has shit geography: totally flat, porous borders. In 2003, the US occupied Iraq in its entirety with 150k troops and uncontested 24/7 air supremacy all over the country.

It took 8 months (240+ days) to capture Saddam Hussein.

Iran has mountainous geography, 0 foreign troops, and even pulled off a successful counterstrike to force the non-use of Persian Gulf bases, substantially reducing time on station for planes.

It took 1 day to get Khamenei.

Fall for it twice award.
And honestly, ok, you're old and not afraid of being a martyr, but why bring down your own family with you...

He wanted to be a martyr but didn't expected the attack to happen at that moment and family was just there given its their father and grand father trying to spend as much time with him as possible.

US Central Command released footage of strikes on Iranian military equipment and facilities. The strikes on Iran involved American Tomahawk cruise missiles, aircraft, ballistic missiles, and various types of bombs and drones. The video shows US military strikes on Iranian Su-22 aircraft, possibly decommissioned, and Shahed drones. It was also reported that US and Israeli strikes eliminated Iran's top military command.
