I love this title.

Who was the bright spark who came up with it? 

On an ambivalence level what does a nato sanctioned war look like?

Nothing to do with NATO.  The Treaty only comes into force in a member state is attacked. The USA argued that 9/11 was an attack on it by Afghanistan, hence NATO involvement.  Most NATO countries have refused permission for US aircraft to use their bases.

Also, can I ask, how would we all like it if someone destroyed parliament and enforced their own take on our leadership?

I may be cynical but is this about concern for the Iranian people or access to oil?

We probably wouldnt necessarily hate our government being over thrown but they're going to need some staunch leadership to right that ship, and if history is a guide this is just history repeating since the Iraq involvement in the 80's.

Libya, Iraq, Lebanon, Syria?  Using military might to topple a government can work in the long run, but only with something like the Marshall Plan in Germany or SCAP in Japan.  That's not going to happen in Iran and it's going to take a miracle to see Iran functioning as it should.
