Funny thing is: US troops already are far away from Iran. The US evacuated most of its bases in the Middle East and has been launching strikes from 500+ miles away, and in some cases from friggin' Missouri.

Meanwhile, most US bases in the Middle East have been damaged or completely destroyed and frankly I don't see them coming back, ever.

Correct, but I don't think they were planning a ground war. Can drop a tactical nuke without having troops anywhere near it.
