To be clear, the Iranian program was never completely made totally out of operation. That would require far more than a few strikes. All that the first raid did was, at best, set them back 5 years. What Trump is demanding now is basically the complete end to their entire nuclear development strategy, in addition to reductions on their ballistic missile capabilities. Meaning zero enrichment. That's not typically an item on the table, even for his own previous administration.

To be honest, it would be best for the Iranians to accept the demand. Assad ended his Chemical Weapons program after that... highly debatable... incident with poison gas. He basically abandoned the program, and then had the Russians guarantee the removal of his stockpiles. Frankly the program never helped him in the Syrian Civil War anyways. The Iranians are better off ending their enrichment and just buying nukes from Pakistan (assuming China and Russia will allow it, which is a hard 'maybe').

And by the way Kienan, unlike what I said last time: yes, this time the armada are in position now, including a vast array of missile interceptors. Suggesting not only an attack, but a heavy Iranian counter-attack as well.

Assad complied, and it did nothing to halt the gayops against him. He's fortunate to be alive right now rather than getting Gaddafi'd. There's really no point in co-operating with the US on any of this. For all the talk about the Iranians being fanatical psychos, they're actually restrained and naive to an almost buffoonish degree.

The point wasn't for him to stop being overthrown (that was a goal since at least the mid 90's). The point was that it no longer justified American or Israeli air strikes on his territory. It bought time, and allowed for fixed-wing air support to stop. Hell, he damn well almost won the war for a minute there.

You're assessment of Iran is just wrong, as they've been engaged in an international irregular warfare campaign to spread the "Islamic Revolution" across the entire region. They're not complete fanatical psychos, but they're also not naive (I wouldn't be surprised if this justifies what amounts to a military coup where the ayatollah is 'tragically killed by the American pig-dog bombing campaign').

The region is already Islamic.

Yes but it's the wrong Islamic.

This is a pretty common thread in the history of all Islamic civil wars.
