They were only off by a cool 100000000%.
Whatever Trump says the war will cost, multiply it by 200x, at least.
Iran will be 30-40 year slog and cost well over $10-20T in a never ending black hole of stupidity.
That would be the end of us.

The premise of the war was based on faulty intelligence that Iraq had WMD's (Yellow cake, chemical weapons etc.), intelligence much of which came from Israel.
Iran is a country of 90 million people, with lots mountainous terrain like Afghanistan that is half the size of Europe. Just do the math.
Russia and China (border countries) are salivating for us to get bogged down in Iran while they supply weapons to the Iranians in a long decades war with the U.S.
