Rightly or wrongly, it does look like the US government is gearing up for an attack on Iran. The British people are worried that they will be dragged into yet another unwanted confilct by Tony Blair following George Bush around again.
Also consider that if that the US does attack then what is that going to do to the stability of the region and the world economy. Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Kuwait, Turkey, Egypt, Israel, Syria and the Palestinians would all be drawn in. Oil prices would double or more and production would be devastated.
The Iranians are still battle hardened after fighting the Iraqis for 10 years and know the terrain inside out. Also, in the wake of a US attack (for once) the Iranian people would unite behind the present government, leaving an American army fighting an entire country with a population of over 70 million with an average age of under 30.
Terrorist attacks in the UK would become as common as during the IRA days and the US would start getting hit again
