I understand all that and I did not take it as a “flame” ;0)

It is what I was asking for...

But, are we (the U.S.) allowing the Kurds to attack them, and at least not trying to stop them??? Of course Iran is going to fight back and this gives them ammunition/propaganda to attack in Iraq....

I am not defending them, just trying to understand. Are the Iranians supposed to just let the Kurds attack?

I'm just trying to understand also.

1) Kurds have been attacking in Iran and fleeing into Iraq for a number of years.

2) At same time, terrorist in Iraq have been attacking US & Iraqi targets and fleeing in Iran & its proxy Syria. (These terrorists have also been supplied by Iran & Syria.)

3) The US did not launch air strikes on Iranian & Syrian soil AND the Iranians did not launch air strikes on Iraqi soil. An unspoken mutual restrain.

Why does Iran think it can NOW unilaterally exercise the right of air strikes across the border into Iraq without the US exercising the same right into Iran & Syria?

The only answer I can come up with is "Obama."
