> Iran repeatedly calls for death to Israel and the USA. Israel never did that.

Calling for it and being actually able to do it are two very different things.

It is similar to swearing at someone "Fuck you". It doesn't mean you're actually able and willing to.

So based on your logic we should just let them gain that ability and see what happens?

Since they conducted decades of terrorism against Israel the USA and our allies a more apt example would be a person who repeatedly stabbed our friends is trying to get a bomb that could kill us all.

It's amazing to me how people are willing to give the benefit of the doubt to people who literally led terrorist attacks against their country. To people who would stone gay people and punish women for the crime of rape. But won't give a similar benefit of doubt to the people opposing them. Who won't consider that, maybe, just maybe, the stuff you read on the internet isn't the whole truth.

I'm going to play a childish game with you: who started it first?

Are you saying people on the internet lie?

		> I'm going to play a childish game with you: who started it first? You can say that the CIA. Not Israel. But again that's a child's game just like you said. How many Jews conducted suicide bombings in Germany after the holocaust? We moved on, I can't say forgive and forget but we go to Germany and Austria. We talk and we live. > Are you saying people on the internet lie? Yep. And exaggerate and simplify the wrong things.
