They'll be avenged, the real war hasn't even started yet, it's only been going on for 12 hours and Iran still has plenty of missiles to retaliate with.
I don't want vengence, I want justice.
justice is just vengeance with a different name, its the cloth governments dress their vengeance by violence in.
Bullshit Justice is just Vengence with another name, that is how you differentiate it from Justice.
Justice is a subjective rather than objective concept, unlike vengeance. Although it can safely be said that vengeance, for many people, is a core component of their sense of justice
For others, justice is something rooted in whatever is the most good. Even for those beyond the group or person harmed by something. Like restorative justice vs prison-based punishment. Regardless of which of those two things someone prefers, most of that choice boils down to individual conceptions of justice that are often immutable opinions
After the last war which lasted 12 days, and the damage done in the first strike, I'm skeptical about Iran's capabilities to return fire. They seem to have sold all their weapons to Russia and have nothing left to answer the attack. Totally armchair opinion, of course.
