I would say about 2 or 3. What Iran did is basically a publicity stunt.
The 'risk' of war is simply being hyped by the media in order to increase ratings.

Oil production is peaking, Iran has 3rd largest amount of oil. Russia and China have strong ties to Iran, thus I think since this is the case, no chance of USA or Britain to attack. Unless Iran was to attack or blockade the straights. Iran doesnt attack 1st, history proves this, not since Alexander the Great. I think there is great publicity and underground work in Iran to discredit the current regime in Iran, and its starting to work. Iran's new younger generation , are eager to become more materialistic, Internet savy , etc...
So my vote is , 2

"12" - Iran is backing everyone into a corner & not leaving many choices. Personally, I think it is part of Iran's plan to argue afterwards that they deserve nuclear weapons for defense. They are crazy zealots. I am trying prayer but willing to use force if neccessary.

I'd say a 5 or 6. That's pretty low. We're positioning in case things escalate, but we're not planning a first strike.

0, who has the troops?, the public support? and a justifiable reason?
Iran wants what other countries want, fair enough!
I don't see any other countries offering to close their power plants, or give up their WMD's as an example.
If its good for the goose...
