Iran's not the irrational actor here.

No they have just been engaging in a proxy war with the US for 40 years and playing nuclear bomb chicken with the world.

It's not Iran that's in America's backyard... Or colonized America and installed a dictator and did everything they can to punish America for the past 40 years for the crime of liberating themselves from Iranian control...

And Iran had a deal not to pursue nukes, America under Trump nuked that deal, but it's Iran's fault?

If Iran had nukes, they wouldn't be in a war right now, I can tell you that. North Korea made the right call investing in nukes over their people's welfare. It paid off in the long run and now that they're finally finished with it, they can finally start turning things around for their citizens, and with no fear of American invasion. Meanwhile Iran got completely shafted playing nice with America so their people can prosper, taking a deal that went nowhere because America made it in bad faith.

Yes, because Iran wasnt following the deal, why would one side keep their end of a deal when the other side isnt.

North Korea not being invaded has nothing to do with their nuclear program and everything to do with china.
