Iran’s neighbors weren’t victims of collateral damage, that implies they were accidentally hit while Iran was striking back at the US and Israel.
It seems like Iran specifically, deliberately shot missiles at their neighbors, who has absolutely nothing to do with any of this.
This is like a man who gives his wife a black and and then says “see what you made me do?”
Why would Jordan, Kuwait, Iraq, Bahrain, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Oman blame the US for what Iran did?
Please explain it like I’m 5 years old…
