The US attack on Iran was wrong but don't forget that Iran loves to lob ballistic missiles at Israel civilians.

> Iran loves to lob ballistic missiles at Israel civilians

Phew and I wonder why that might be!

Yea, I do wonder, why that might be? Why is a country 1500 miles away, that doesn't even share a common border, preoccupied with the destruction of Israel to the point it invested hundreds of billion of dollars in its offensive capabilities and network of proxies on every side of Israel, had a special paramilitary wing (Quds Force) for operations inside Israel, had a public clock counting down the existence of Israel and called for the destruction of Israel on each and every opportunity?

What's the obsession with the destruction of Israel? Could it be related to the fact that an Islamic Republic of (...) could not accept a Jewish rule right in the middle of the great Muslim Ummah?

So you really can't see what the problem is that the Israelis have caused in this region, can you.

Jews existing is a problem for Iran

Because they have a very deep and irrational hatred of Jews that stems directly from the way the koran talks about them.

Here's a comment to the contrary from another poster which I found illuminating: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47605903

The US and Israel have killed over 3,000 civilians in this war, mostly in Iran and Jordan. Iran has killed like 30. Their attacks are literally a hundredth of what they got and we're still trying to portray them as the bad guys. Don't get me wrong, Iran sucks, but not because of this

The Shia Theocracy controlling Iran has killed thousands of civilians protesting their oppressive regime.

Iran has killed thousands of its civilians. The only reason it has only killed a few Israelis (excluding Oct 7) is because they can't easily get past Israeli defenses.

Not that long ago. Just a reminder.

If the USA and Israel had really wanted to stop evil regimes they could have gone to Sudan maybe?

Wikipedia is not a reliable reference here. It's a propaganda tool.

The Islamic Republic has killed a vast number of people over its reign. The main problem though is their drive for nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles and their exporting of violence beyond the borders of their country.

I'm not sure what sort of military action you're proposing to solve the civil war in Sudan but if there's a solution I'd be interested in hearing it.

What? Iran was attacked by israel numerous times, including today. It has the right to defend itself.

If anything, it's israel here that has attacked almost all countries in the area and annexed land from them ("buffer zones").

How does shooting ballistic missiles with cluster warheads at residential areas help defend Iran?
