Unfortunately the dumb comment belongs to you.
They already killed 29 Americans. We are already justified in doing whatever we want IMO.
Agree 100%. You really think this shit can White House and State Department have the balls for this? Count me as a solid no.
We won't attack without proof Iran knew of and helped this specific attack. We have funded groups all over the world. Imagine if one of them carried out an atrocity without us specifically knowing. And it has happened, below is one example. Assuming we knew nothing, are we to blame?

As others pointed out, we sold chemical and biological weapons to Iraq who used same on Iran.
We can't set a standard we refuse to live by. We get a smoking gun that Iran knew of, planned, aided, this attack, then we have causus belli against Iran. But we know we do against Hamas. But I suspect we are prioritizing getting our people out. A strike against them could be detrimental to that goal.
Iran is very active in Qatar, which has been a problem for the Saudis for years. IRGC and Hamas operatives run around Qatar with impunity. To think the Qatari’s were more at fault that the IRGC who has military advisors from Yemen to Syria, is not only asinine….but he probably needs professional help.

Anthrax was sold to them. Should not have been done, and Iraq eventually weaponized a strain we sold. It actually wasn’t weaponized until after the war with Iran ended, but they still weaponized it and we had a part in that since we sold it to them. The US had no role in their chemical weapons development program.Iraq purchased 8 strains of anthrax from the United States in 1985, according to British biological weapons expert David Kelly.[47] The Iraqi military settled on the American Type Culture Collection strain 14578 as the exclusive strain for use as a biological weapon, according to Charles Duelfer....The report then detailed 70 shipments (including anthrax) from the United States to Iraqi government agencies over three years, concluding "It was later learned that these microorganisms exported by the United States were identical to those the UN inspectors found and recovered from the Iraqi biological warfare program."[50]

I completely agree with you selling a non-military helicopter isn't selling a weapon. Anthrax though? Other chem and biological? Maybe other things were dual use, but anthrax? We could sell vaccines, selling live anthrax seems far less dual use.
And we gave them military intelligence on using banned weapons:

The U.S. knew Hussein was launching some of the worst chemical attacks in history -- and still gave him a hand.

WTH are you talking about. You’re a lost cause.
Speaking of that. How's the bud stock'ings investment doing. I haven't heard or looked for a bit.
If we have a Palestinian Americans stuck in Gaza, do we want them back assuming they're like the people we've seen protesting the last few days? I would make that last on the priority list.
Then fix it. Put up or shut up. We've heard the same bullshit for 1,000 years. It's time to cut bait. I am terribly sorry for those caught in the chaffe, but this must end NOW.
There's some 500-600 Americans stuck in the Gaza strip. Pretty much all of them of Palestinian descent.
I've read some tough talk recently about how "This 'aint your grandma's, Hezbollah". They're 100K strong, with 100K+ precision guided missiles pointed at Israel, and battle hardened from Syria.
You're either with us (the modern world) or your against us and we ain't putting up with BS terrorist any longer.
Circling back to this. My life is encircled with crazy shit, that is why I drink. Ok not the only reason, I enjoy it. When I pulled to most stupid thing a man could do, which was divorcing my first wife, I was cast into a life of paying for my sin. It's a purgatory on earth, but I admit, I deserve it.
I empathize believe me. I dropped my little guy off this am. Hour later I get a text that he won’t eat. He’s yelling COOKIE. And I just thought mother f*ucker I have 16 more years of this. How is that possible. And she’ll text me all week. Every day. Then go on vacation this weekend with her bf. More and more I think it’s a sims world and some of us are just meant to be F’d with as their entertainment
