Iran, unlike America, has a government-supported militia system. Picture the insurgency of Iraq but much more intense and highly organized. Much of the Iraqi insurgency was focused internally; it was a civil war with American troops being attacked by both sides. Iran won't have the civil war distracting the insurgents; all their focus will be on the "infidel" invaders.
My opinion: It is Israel's war, let them fight it. We'll sell Israel the ammo, weapons, and intelligence they need.
