What was the problem in the Persian War?
The couple of hundred Greek city-states within the Persian Empire became restive, and revolted. Persia put the rebellion down. Athens and Eretria in mainland Greece, outside the Empire, intervened, and the Persians were persuaded that the only way to keep the Greek city-states not inside the Empire from fomenting trouble inside the Empire, was to incorporate them too, and appoint tyrants friendly to Persia to rule and control them. Many of those hitherto independent cities came across to the Persian side. Those in southern Greece resisted and Persia invaded to bring them under control and so restore peace to the eastern Mediterranean. The invasion failed, and intermittent war went on for another thirty yeas until Persia gave up and left the Greek cities to go back to their endless warfare amongst each other.

Persia then tried to bring all the Greeks under its control to prevent their constant wars, but failed and eventually left them alone to go back to fighting each other.

Why would someone want to warn Xerxes not to take revenge on Greece?
When countries pay for waging war, that money is diverted from other interests. In the case of Xerxes, his aim was to seek revenge on Greece for the failings of his father. With the benefit of hindsight we can speculate that someone would warn Xerxes not to go to war with Greece because of the tenacity of the Greeks (Athens, Sparta, and the hundreds of other city-states) but a short answer would be the logistics of going to war is very expensive and risky when the enemy is far away. Before Thermoplye, Xerxes lost a great number of ships and men to a storm that sank the boats. With Persia being so far away, replacing them was a logistical nightmare; hence why Xerxes is purported to have invaded Greece with one million men in his army.
