We are between worse than a rock and a hard place on many issues. If we raise interest rates, the economy craters. If we don't, we have inflation.
If we bomb Iran, we can be secure that we will not see an Iranian nuke, but, if we do, we will see our economy crater from the price of oil going sky-high.
