> The US has absolutely no business attacking Iran.

Iran's theocratic regime just murdered tens of thousands of protestors, regularly organizes chants of "Death to America", calls the US "The Great Satan", sponsors terror organizations all around the region, has (through their Houthi proxies) cut off critical sea lanes in one of the most strategic areas, is very close to developing nuclear weapons (with enough HEU already to build maybe a dozen bombs), has extensive ballistic missile magazines and expertise, and is working on ICBMs explicitly to reach the US homeland.

But oh yeah, this is totally unprovoked and the US has no business attacking Iran. Right.

It's amazing to see the justification done by some people to attack other sovereign countries. Did not america learn from the fake WMD fiasco with Iraq?

  The IAEA estimates that Iran had 440.9 kg of uranium enriched to up to
  60% before last year's Israeli-U.S. attacks - enough, if enriched further,
  for 10 nuclear weapons, according to an IAEA yardstick.
  
  The agency and Western powers believe the bulk of that is still intact.
  Washington wants Tehran to give it up.

I seem to have missed the IAEA report on Iraq's 400+ kilos of HEU.

Pathetic.
