They have attacked other countries. Mostly by proxy. Giving money and arms to the PLO for example which is a terrorist organization. Sad part, the PLO use to not be a terrorists organization.
It was hijacked and is now a business model. Look what happens every time they get close to a peace deal. The PLO walks away from the agreement. Mosque donations and zealot recruits are similar to a US charity organization. Heads of the organization get filthy rich with only a small amount going to actual charity work (terrorists attacks).

Iran has stated very openly and directly that the moment they possess nuclear weapons Israel will cease to exist. Whatever reason they think they need to attack they apparently acquired a long time ago.
I am a firm believer in the idea that to truly communicate with someone you need to speak to them in their own language. Iran uses the language of fierce savagery and violence. Even amongst themselves. Fine with me. I am fluent in that language.

Good to see you again
I don't like it either. Not one bit.
However, I am not surprised that Trump to chose to handle it this way. Trump has made it clear that he's putting America first by any and all means necessary and effective. And this is one of the reasons many of his supporters are his supporters.
I understand why. I just don't think killing folks -- even if they are willing to kill us -- is necessarily the appropriate solution.

We have absorbed YEARS of DIRECT ATTACKS against US Personnel and allies. Most recently a coordinated drone attack on SA, seizing ships in the Strait of Hormuz, seizing a US Navy vessel and detaining her crew, harassing US Navy ships in international waters, and an attack on the US Embassy in Iraq.
When do we get to hit back? The OP would have us believe that because Mossad and Zionism or some stupid # that we are clearly wrong and should keep absorbing attacks.

The "by proxy " is a result of support from regions being attacked. As I stated before they do enguage in support efforts where Shia Muslims are under attack or threat of attack .

If you agree with every decision a president makes then you are nothing more than a sheep.
Not everything is black and white so relax.

The original PLO achieved peace without violence. It was hijacked once they realized how much money they were making. All that would have dried up so they kept it going.
The Muslim faith was essentially hijacked for these business models. Fill the mosques with people, preach about atrocities, take donations and volunteers and wage small proxy skirmishes to create more atrocities. Rinse and repeat.

It's been over a year since I've posted I think . Hope this is in the right area .
As the Title states I can't get behind this Attack on Iran.
I am am a Trump supporter but I think Trump has made a bad decision on this one .
I don't trust Mike Pompeo he is most certainly an agent of Zionist Isereal. ( no I'm not anti semitic) . He's had a hard on for Iran for a long time and I'm sure he's played a key role in this attack on Iran's official's.
Look I have been around ATS a long time and because of this I've developed this "Third eye for bull # "My fellow alumni ATS brethren and Sisteren know exactly what I'm talking about . We have been through most of all the conspricices here and have an understanding of how even the most convincing conspiracy with all the dots connected can be absolutely false .
That said I don't believe Iran is the big bad wolf they have been portrayed to be in the MSM . Do they have bad players in their government? Sure! What government doesn't? Do I believe they wanted to attack and whipe out Israel and the US ? Never thought they had a reason to until now .
Iran hasn't attacked another country (unprovoked) in over 200 years.
I can go on But I'll wait the naysaying to start before I lay down more facts.
Thoughts?
