Right. Perhaps with some special forces. on the ground, but no full scale invasion. It should be clear that the West - if not the world - has an issue with the Iranian nuclear program as it is executed and not with the Iranian people. Furthermore, I think that destroying only deeply covered or remote facilities would avoid "collateral damage" of innocent civilians and would be clear enough a message of the Wests intentions.
Ideal would be as this resulted in political upheaval and a regime change by the Iranian people itself (perhaps with a little bit of covered help).
It should also send a clear message to the numerous other nations who want to gain a nuclear capacity (and probably have signed the Non-Proliveration Treaty).

How did you come to 66%?...
I think Skybird just took 1% of 100 and multiplied it with 66...
