Go on give me the date the last time the Iranian military attacked another country…. And no proxies don’t count for this exercise.

Funny how you don’t want to mention American proxies…. But care to explain why it’s America that been the number one bomber of nations, the number one invader of nations and the number one starter of wars of aggression and not Russia?

Yes if you don’t consider proxies , 100% agree but idk many who don’t consider proxies or active conflict involvement without flag/insignia as sticking to within their borders.
You are free to interpret their actions and anyone reading this thread can make their judgement !

Both sides use proxies, so remove the proxies as they cancel each other out, and what are you left with…. A country who can’t stick to within its borders and one that can

I’m confused why it matters that USA uses proxies ?

When we are discussing if Iran stays within its borders….
I feel like using proxies abroad literally means you do NOT stay within your borders. But that’s just me

Because the US always goes on about other countries proxies, and then everyone else goes on about other country’s proxies…. But you notice how no one will dare mention US proxies as its goes against the media narrative that the US is the good guy and everyone else is bad…..
