#1 US turning up heat on Iran?

Give back the Brits or we'll tell the world you have nukes and begin the process of pursuing a casus belli against you?

After all you don't need to fight them straight away or even threaten them with war. Just threaten them with moving to stage one of the process towards war should be enough: still plenty of bargaining space.

Not enough troops/homefront will for too many wars

Bush gotta get re-elected: don't bite off too much before 2005, W.

#3 causing even a dem admin to take military action...

Not unless you think "surrender" counts as a military action. We ARE talking about a potential John F. "Negotiated with the Cong" Kerry administration.
