That ain't gonna work, the US has depleted themselves thanks to Ukraine and now you want to start shit with Iran where conventional forces will be massacred thanks to fortified positions in mountainous areas.
If anything this might backfire on the Kurds more, they are stuck between Iran, Turkey, Iraq and Syria, a play like this especially when Turkey would love an excuse to glass and Iran has ties to Syria and Iraq seems just as thought out as when the Jews rebelled and pissed of Hadrian, that's how Palestine was created...
I mean in terms of hardware! NATO as a whole has been throwing weapons into Ukraine that several places have been running low on missiles and artillery. I think the US itself has been actually reducing it's stockpiles below what is acceptable and replace rate.
The US has given like 10-15% of some of its stockpiles like artillery ammo, but also got over $10 billion to increase production into overdrive to replace what's being given to Ukraine.
Increasing production will take time though, and the US won't allow its own stocks to go lower than a certain level just for Ukraine. Right now they seem to be getting or maybe paying other countries to send their own stocks while they get production going.
There is no issue with GMLRS rockets for HIMARS because the US hasn't given Ukraine that many of the rockets since they are used for precision strikes not fired in big barrages.
Lockheed Martin COO Frank St John said the company currently produces about 7,500 rockets per year but it can go higher. ‘We have capacity to produce 10,000 rockets a year’ for US and export customers such as Ukraine, St John told CBS News, adding that Lockheed Martin is conducting analysis to ‘potentially take that up to 12,000-14,000 rockets a year’. LaPlante said that an expanded production rate can be sustained ‘as long as the demand is needed… We can keep production lines open for 30 years.’
Ukraine is firing a few hundred rockets per month, tops. It simply doesn't have enough high value targets to justify firing more.
And as for artillery shells, the US has sent about 1 million but has about 10 million, and is ramping up production rapidly:
“We are seeking over a couple of years to nearly triple our production of 155 [mm shells],” Bush said on Wednesday. Congress has been supportive; we have funding; we are executing and making that happen. “Production rates do need to increase and are increasing,” Bush said. “I don’t know how long the conflict is going to last. We are doing things, though, to ensure that if it goes on for a long time, we’re going to be in a place to support it, based on the best information that we have. War is an uncertain enterprise.”
The only real threat to the US right now is China, and the CCP isn't in any position to start a war any time soon, at least for a few years. When that war finally comes, it will be fought almost entirely by aircraft and naval ships, not by ground based artillery.

you underestimate the willingness of the average US center right GOP voter to die for Israel
Israel says jump, we ask how many brown children we can kill.
Depleted? We have spent a total of like $10-20B on Ukraine. Biden spent a total of something like $7-9 TRILLION the last 2 years.
We could have done Ukraine 100x over and it wouldn't even add up to the price of 1 libtard "infrastructure" bill.
I don't mean in terms of 'fun money'

Why do idiots always blame America for everything?
If America cared so much about the Kurds, Trump wouldn't have abandoned them when Erdogan decided to attack them.
We just don't give a shit, dude.
This isn't an American conspiracy, it's just internal dissent in Iran, a country which has been having a LOT of internal dissent lately.
What is this garbage ass formatting? Get the fuck out of here with this trash.
