We don't stand in the streets chanting, "Death to Iran" do we? Why do you think 52% of people find Iran untrustwrthy? Because of their ongoing threats, rhetoric, and covert actions. Iran was supporting our stance against ISIS and turning around and funding g, providing military support for the Houdis in Yemen.
And you wonder why most do not want to have a nuke deal with this country?.
No, we do not want war...on the contrary. We are war weary. We want life. Our own to continue in our country, our FREE country.
Get it?

They attack us by proxy. Is that not an attack? Must they announce "death to America commencing in 3...2...1..." ?
If you mean the deal, I concur. If you mean a better alternative, that would be ideal, of course. I don't think time would permit the latter to be constructed though, sadly. I wish it were otherwise.

The deal with Iran is a flawed, deeply troubling one. Far from perfect, and far from assured to bring about its desired goals. However right now, it is the best alternative available to the world and indeed, to Iran.
Baby steps then.
Better than throwing it out with the bath water.

Yemen had a view of Iranian battleships off their coastline and the crew weren't out fishing. It was a war ship with intent to activate it's arsenal of weapons whenever they decided to.

I want those who are responsible for continued attacks by proxy to be held accountable and the innocent Iranians who struggle to live everyday to not have to.
I'd get behind any path to mutually assured cease fire from all attacks and murder, murder-suicides everywhere worlwide.
They are taught hate from the knee in preparation for their future actions for service to Iran.

I created a detailed thread about this as reported by an NBC news on site correspondent weeks ago. I refer you to that thread as the source.
Attack was immenant but Iran chose to attack by funding the Houthis. That is not Saber rattling.
