Frankly, I trust the Ayatollah with the Bomb a lot more than I do the Israeli Prime Minister or the US President.
Same. Iran is generally very measured in their actions, especially compared to Netanyahu and Trump.
It'd be nice if they reined in the IRGC and Quds Force, but then the US should rein in the CIA and special forces, and Israel should rein in Mossad.
Is supplying drones and ballistic missiles for strikes on residential apartments in Ukraine considered a "measured action" to you?
The US supplies weapons for Israel to strike residential apartments and residents directly in the head before dumping them in unmarked graves in Palestine.
So I would say there's nothing escalating about what they are doing, and being a 3rd party arms dealer is a lot more measured than boots on the ground.
Should is a word that can do a lot of heavy lifting, don't you find?
