Attack comes nearly two weeks after strike in Damascus killed top Iranian commander; Biden arrives at White House to meet with national security team in situation room
There's an argument that the Moscow wing of the Republican Party has emboldened countries like Iran due to its lack of support for Ukraine. Just because the US might not get involved, it doesn't mean its adversaries will also sit this one out.
I think countries like Israel and the US enacting and enabling a genocide and constantly bombing countries in the middle east has "emboldened countries like Iran" (hmm, I wonder what you meant with that phrasing....). Israel just struck an Iranian embassy last week, and this is retaliation.
"There's an argument" you have no idea what you're talking about.
