It is a strategy although I'm not sure it's the best strategy.
Any attack Iran suffers from the usa without retaliating will lead to a bigger attack and more joining in. It starts with an attack on nuclear sites and in a few steps could lead to a "limited nuking" of somewhere or other.
The only thing that I think could be worse for leading to widescale usage of nukes than attacking nuclear facilities is accepting an attack against ones nuclear facilities/structures unpunished.
You may be right. Unfortunately not a lot of options. They should have gotten a nuke long ago
