That it would. It'd be mighty tough to replace equipment and scientists under normal circumstances, but trying to do it with no money would be a nightmare.
But how good is the intelligence on Iran's nuclear program? My limited knowledge is that it is dispersed, underground to a large extent, and close to civilians in many cases. That makes it difficult to:
A. Hit it
B. Determine what each individual base is doing and how important each is to the overall operation.
I'd rather send out only a few air raids to hit more important facilities as opposed to 50 in an attempt to grind the entire program into dust. Both, I would think, would accomplish our goal of stopping Iran from getting a nuclear weapon any time soon.
Too bad my college education is in economics and not nuclear engineering.

We sure need oil, and bombing oil facilities would probably set back worldwide oil production for a LONG time. But Iran will be hurting a lot worse than us.
