If the USA invades Iran there is a big possibility of a third world war. Why?
The answer is simple: If the US invades Iran, this country will not export any oil to china witch will most likely react violently aainst the US and all it`s allies. And China as you may know disposes of nuclear arsenals and intercontinental rokets...And China is not the only threat as it will most likely ally with Russia and North Korea, and that`s NOT good.
But this is not unknown by the US gouvernment, instead they know it very well that a wqar with China and russia may be innevitable if they invade iran, even more... they wold like a war with china because if china has less population, they will use less oil so there will be more for the us. Think about it...You need to do something against your gouvernment, Americans!

IMO, the US will not invade Iran. The objective is to tie Tehran into a dialogue, as has been happening with DPRK (North Korea). There will be periods when sabres are rattled (as happens with DPRK) but nothing will happen. If things had gone very differently in Iraq, then who knows - there were people in the Pentagon saying 'ok, we either turn right at Baghdad and head for Tehran or left and go for Damascus' but this simply is not on the agenda now.
However, there is a chance of Israeli strikes on Iranian installations as happened in Iraq in 1981. There'd be a huge row about it but no world war.
