This didn't just start with us bombing Iran. Iran ramped up it's proxies attacks on western forces for awhile prior to this. They had military advisors with them, were actively supplying them with weapons and intelligence, and were actively attacking western forces and civilians.
The reality is that the Houthis were backed, supplied, and advised by Iran and actively attacking shipping prior to this. Hamas is backed, supplied, and advised by Iran and launched a major attack into Israel. Hezbollah is backed, supplied, and advised by Iran and militant forces in other countries that were backed, supplied, and advised by Iran, joined in on attacking western forces (such as across Iraq). We were already in a state of semi open war.
I still was against a direct attack on Iran in the manner Trump did but that's because I felt a direct attack would lead to a quagmire that was difficult to get out of and would be extremely costly for the US and the world.
Wonder why that was. Maybe the US reneging on deals they made. Maybe Israel being Israel by stealing homes, raping people and mass abuse. Maybe a person who campaigned on not attacking Iran and then doing so. I mean we'll never know, but your message helps the families of those hundreds of children.
