They have not attacked us, their proxies may have attacked us, but the U.S. government has directly attacked Iran, but never before as directly as Trump and his Israeli buddy have done.
Now we have screwed up the oil supply for the entire world, and we partnered with the most unpopular government in the world to do so, and are mired in a mess of our own making.

1) When you hire a contract killer to kill your spouse, you are as guilty of the murder as the person you hired.
Iran and "proxies" are the same thing. When my oldest son was serving with 1st Cav in Baghdad, April 2004 to April 2005, About half those "insurrectionists" they fought, killed, captured spoke Farsi/Iranian/Persian and carried grave markers in that language.
Shia believe in marked grave burial, Sunni do not.
2) We are not at war with "Iran", rather with the theocratic dictatorship/regime running that country. That theocratic regime is the one that has directed Iran military resources to attack the USA, Israel, and the West the past 47 years since they took control of the country. Once they are defeated and replaced by more civil and peaceful form of government this "war" can be over.
3)Iran screwed the world's oil supply. Iran did not have to place mines in the Straight and constrict/attack shipping passing through. That was a CHOICE they made rather than more civil and compliant response. This is Iran's fault.
It is typical of you leftards to absolve the crimes of criminals and blame others, society, the system, etc. for "doing" such~make it happen, rather than apply personal responsibility for one's choices and actions to those who did those actions.
