Remember, this is a war that Israel started. Iran may be run by evil people, but the Israeli government isn't that far behind. Iran killed tens of thousands of their own people, and Israel killed tens of thousands of Palestinians.
There is an evil in the middle east that seems to infect all the governments in the area.

And Trump, most obligingly, gave Israel a helping hand with some bullshit "justification" and a lot of bombs and missiles.
It's going to get a lot worse before it gets better, and we helped get it going.
