Proportionality is one of the tenets of just war, and iirc, part of geneva/hague

My take is that the Globalist crowd wanted a war. They set one up. Oops, Trump didn’t take the bait.
In mid-May, Diane Feinstein met with the Iranian Foreign Minister, Zarif. Why? To set up a false flag to oust PDJT?

Kerry went to Iran last September.

The Globalists failed to get the Russian war they wanted so they could impeach Trump. Now they have turned to Iran, hoping for the war they want to take back the reins of power.

Remember, we did not go to war with Russia when they shot down a MANNED U-2. Going to war over the loss of an UNMANNED drone is a very bad idea. Losing a drone means at worst we lose the vehicle, not a pilot, or worse, let them capture a prisoner. Drones can be replaced much more easily than can a pilot.
