Answer :

Great question. Had they carried it out, it would have been considered an act of war against the USA, the Saudi Arabians and Israel. Since they failed to do it, I don’t think current US isolationism fervor will allow us to retaliate militarily. But it will further isolate Iran as an international pariah and demonstrate that the aging Ayatollahs that actually rule the country are losing their grip on sanity.
