It's helpful to remember that Iran has been at war with us and the west for 47 years. To wit:

Car bomb killing 17 Americans at the US Embassy in Beirut in 1983
Truck bomb in Beirut kills 241 Marines and servicemembers in 1983
Attempted embassy bombing in Kuwait in 1983
The 1984 kidnap, torture and murder of CIA station chief William Buckley in Beirut
1984 - Kuwait Airlines flight 221 hijacked, 2 American USAID officials murdered
1985 - TWA Flight 847 hijacked, Navy diver murdered
1989 - Marine Col. William Higgins murdered
1995 - VBED kills an American in Gaza
1996 - Khobar Towers bombing in Saudi Arabia, 19 Americans killed
1998 - Hezbollah helps al Qaeda bomb US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania

2003-2011 Iran supplies AQI with IEDs and training, killing at least 603 Americans and wounding thousands more.
2007 - IRGC disguises themselves as US soldiers, sneak into our compound in Karbala, and kill 5 US soldiers.

The only question at hand here is, "Why have we put up with their sh1t for this long?"

There's none of this "America went to war for Da Jooooos". That's not the right way to look at this.
