Should the U.S. Use Military Force Against Iran?

Once a distant, mysterious land, the U.S. has become intensely embroiled in Middle Eastern politics. While simultaneously waging campaigns in both Afghanistan and Iraq, America has turned a wary eye to Iran and its alleged nuclear weapons. With the lives of potentially thousands of soldiers and citizens at stake in both countries, should the U.S. take direct military action against Iran?

    The Iranians do not have WMD. There is no argument there. It has signed on to the non proliferation of these weapons. On the other hand the only country that has WMD in the Middle East is Israel. Now the right to bear arms is enshrined in the Consititution. Why is it that Iran cannot have WMD to defend itself against another Country. The fear that they might can be used against any other Country possesing the WMD. India, Pakistan, China etc. Perhaps invade someone with the ability or go broke.
    Is the real reason to invade the WMD? Or is it the fact that the Federal Reserve does not have Iran under debt?
