(Quite apart from the obvious military buildup which would be apparent, together with the inevitability of something leaking to the media.)
I don't doubt that people in the US Government would like to, at the very least, drop a few bombs on Iran's nuclear facilities, but it's hard to imagine them actually being able to force the issue in the present climate; I think that's a one for ten years down the road.
