The USA Military strategists are/were quite aware that Iran is not an easy target.

They knew already that Iran might not belly up just because their leadership gets killed. And they knew very well how Iran is fighting (in the mountains) and that they will close the strait of hormuz

Trump overruled it. He thought it was as easy as venezuela and he might have assumed that the civil unrest helps.

I suppose you have reliable sources for this?
There were plenty of YT Videos of Military analysis and News Paper articles about why USA suddenly attacked Iran.

Adelson Family as donor to Trump and Bibi.

Other donors might have motivated him too: Bernard Marcus and Paul Singer

I can't collect though a list of sources to read through for my statements. But i don't think my view is very controversal at all.

That's speculation. We were going to attack Iran regardless. My point was, the attack you are talking about was done _by_ Israel and was not part of the plan.
