    “Israel could invade and conquer Iran tomorrow and they have not.”

    Why haven’t they then? Why hasn’t the US? Ever heard of millenium challenge 2002 for example? Invading Iran is not as easy as you seem to think. Iran has a geography that makes invasion very very difficult, strong natural defences. It would have otherwise been already invaded.
