The topography of Afghanistan is worse; the terrain is more rugged, mountains are higher, valleys are narrower, and the existing infrastructure (in 2001) was severely degraded compared to Iran's. The weather is also harsher in Afghanistan, especially from Autumn to Spring. But US got in anyway and occupied it for 20 years. Although the US did not have a good time, they still wrecked Afghanistan for decades to come. I think it is doable in Iran; not saying it is easy (especially as Iran is more developed as a fighting force, but maybe not as experienced at resistance as the Afghan veterans of the civil war and preceding Soviet War).

The most important area to occupy is this flat land where majority of the oil is.

I suspect US wants to break this piece off just as Kuwait was once splintered from Iraq. The demographics of this area - Arabs and Lurs - have a history of conflict with the state, as well as some active separatist groups (Lurs are often labeled as Kurds),

This map was suggested once by an American decades ago. It probably won't happen but you can guess what the thought process is in Washington,

Do you know that Russia allowed the US to attack Afghanistan?

What do you think are the chances of this being allowed today?

This isn't even going into the actual capabilities of the Taliban vs the state of Iran.

Not to mention that even before US intervention, the Northern Alliance forces were superior on paper, and the Taliban had only de facto control of less than 40% of the country.

Rumor say a carrier was hit??

I saw a Youtube video from one of those ex-US military guys, the older guys who are still nice people, unlike the younger generations of US military who generally just damn punks, that guy who now I forget, said that Iran fired 4 ballistic missiles at the US carrier after their leader was whacked on the first day of the war, mostly as a symbolic hostile gesture, so it was not a real attack, although missiles were fired in that general direction apparently.

also one of the greatest ironies is that you know how China refused to supply Iran with the HQ-9 probably to avoid pissing off the GCC?

at some point we are likely gonna see HQ-9 missiles in Saudi Arabia being used to defend US/Israeli bases against Iranian attacks especially with the depletion in US air defence stocks.

Does US even have enough troops for ground invasion?

Saw a couple of Youtube videos, interviews of serious people with deep ties to the US deep state, and the answer to that is a resounding no, they do not have the capacity to launch another Desert Storm type of operation, that was the one that toppled Saddan Hussein in the second Gulf War.

There are indications and some people in America believe the White House will order special forces such as paratroopers to go in. But that is just speculation at this stage.

This crap is getting interesting, LOL!

:D
