No, I actually mean that building nuclear weapons is a very clear provocation to your enemies. Previous kid was arguing that Israel started bombing Iran for no reason. Building nukes is a pretty compelling reason to bomb a country from a realpolitik standpoint.

My overall point is that both states are awful and deserve each other, and you shouldn't cheer either of them on. There is no "good guy". Anything else unclear?

By your logic you’d support bombing the United States and Israel out of existence, right? Or at least whoever did would be fully justified?

honestly-- does not Iran deserve to develop nuclear defense as russia, pakistan, israel, india, france and britain? MID european nations currently appreciate US defense/bases.

Israel has bombed Iran because MAYBE they COULD develop nukes. And hadn't the orange turd broken the deal with Iran they wouldn't try to build nukes.
