      Yeah, the Iranian government will probably just take it as the prank it was meant to be. Just boys being boys! No need to get revenge.

      /S, dummy.

        my point is that the narrative is being used to justify war with Iran: “we need to attack them harder before they get their revenge!”

        by talking about “Iranian terrorists” as if that’s an actual threat, the media is contributing to that justification for war

          Iran has been funding probably most of the terror groups you’ve seen in the news. Not that far fetched
