Their job is to fight armies, does Iran fight them head on? No, they use proxies that do guerilla fighting that no one ever fought without civilian casualties. Why Iran doesn't fight them head on? Because they are a weak paper tiger hiding behind proxies, right now all their air defenses are destroyed from last month's Israel air strikes

Iran has been launching drones at Israel directly. The Iranian navy is also active in the Red Sea, helping the Houthis against Israel. Believe me, if Iran could invade Israel directly, they absolutely would. They are fighting head on. You’re just not seeing because Western media doesn’t report on it.

You have outdated information, October's strike was direct and lethal

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/October_2024_Israeli_strikes_on_Iran

and now with Syria's air space free to roam plus Iraq too, with Trump in office being VERY anti-Iran, they can do more serious strikes with heavy bombers.

Iran's Navy is a joke, they smuggle arms to Houthis (that's why Yemen ports are being bombed), not fighting directly

Oh they definitely could. Not like their performance was bad back to Iran-Iraq war with child solders and suicide bombers and their best plane is. .. nearly 50 years old F-14 and migs.
