A few things to keep in mind from someone who travels to Iran on a fairly regular basis.

1. The vast majority of the educated population (read: ones with money) are pro-western, don't really give a f*ck about the government and are constantly at odds with the komiteh (moral police).

2. Iran will most likely close the strait of Hormuz using mines, which will blow a hole in the side of a tanker or destroyer about as quickly as easily as you can bite into a Haagen Daaz ice cream bar, and will take months, if not years to properly clear and dispose of.

3. Propaganda machine will be in full force in Iran if Israel attacks, much more so than before, which can create a very dangerous situation, reviving the largely uneducated children of the villagers and countryside population into Bassijis.
