Ok, this is just anti-Israelism and pro-Iranian by the Onion. Insinuating that the strikes were unnecessary is completely false. If Israel did not strike Iran would likely get nuclear weapons at some point. Any country that let this happen would be mind-bogglingly irresponsible.

For one thing, you already know Iran would be sharing these nukes with their militia proxies. This would put the most powerful weapons in the world in the hands of unstable actors in even more unstable countries.

It would also enable and entrench the Iranian regime. Which is actually ranked half as free as the Israeli-occupied West Bank and nearly a seventh as free as Israel itself by NGO Freedom House.

Say what you want about Israel’s past actions or tactics, but this needed to happen. The world cannot allow Iran to get nuclear weapons.
