It's pretty clear that rational thought isn't something guiding US foreign policy at this time. The one factor predicting US military intervention is whether the target is opposing US hegemony. It doesn't matter how corrupt or oppressive a regime is as long as it obeys US doctrine. And Iran is definitely getting out of line so expect a war soon. It needn't make any sense, someone will find a reason and push. Hillary saying any attack by Iran on anyone would warrant retaliation, McCain saying Iran is supporting Al Qaeda, there are just too many powerful influences wanting this war for it not to happen.
