They are both banking that if the US puts boots on the ground they can push the US closer to civil war and collapse. Civil War breaks out in the US, the military must be then drawn out of the middle east
Israel will then absorb the trillions in US military infrastructure in the ME making them the defacto hegemony. Iran is hoping to buy as much time as possible while preventing their own civil war from breaking out. Then if they can get a workable nuke program, they will at the very least have a standoff with Israel, but ideally will destroy Israel.
