THIS IS THE REASON US IS ATTACKING IRAN.
It has very little to do with regime change It has very little to do with nuclear weapons too
The major reason is the natural resources Iran holds
Here's everything Iran currently has
208 billion barrels of Crude Oil worth $13.9 trillion 3rd largest in the world
1200 trillion cubic feet of Natural Gas worth $3.18 trillion 2nd largest in the world
320 metric tons of Gold worth $54 billion
Apart from this Iran also has a substantial amount of Silver Copper Iron ore Lithium Zinc and rare resources
As per current estimates these all have a combined worth of $27.3 trillion
This is more than China's and Germany's GDP and almost 80% of the US GDP
If the US somehow gains control of this, it'll have absolute control over several natural resources.
