No, it is extremely justified to respond to an attack on an embassy

It's also extremely justified to respond to someone launching missiles at you. Are you really that much of an idiot that you can't see how this ends or are you just arguing in bad faith?

No? If you start the aggression and get a response can you actually fault the other party????

[-] xmunk@sh.itjust.works -4 points 5 months ago

Yea so about half a century ago Iran started some aggression against Isreal, or maybe Isreal's existence was an aggressive move against Iran?

I don't know, which one was at fault originally?

Not sure about Iran but it certainly was aggressive to Palestinians
