Everybody Blames Israel

Outside of the Jewish State, virtually every world power judges Israel to be the culprit in the Middle East. Notwithstanding that since the Shah was overthrown, Iran has made it their goal to destroy the "Zionist Entity" as a start to bringing on End Times and seeing the "Great Satan" (America) fall. Israel did not capture a US Embassy and hold Americans hostage for years. The Islamic Republic did that, just as Tehran has orchestrated a proxy war against Israel and gave blessing and support to the massacre of Jews on October 7, 2023. The true and only bugbear that keeps the region boiling is Iran, and Israel had to respond to restore any deterrence before the mad mullahs started to believe they could nuke Tel Aviv with no consequence.
