They should do something about it then. Don’t just sit back and expect the world to fight your wars.

Yes but then they get to sit back and criticize both Israel and the U.S. whether they take out Iran or not.
And Both the U.S. and Israel whould team up and kick hell out of Iran with Saudi Arabia, Egypt and a few others help.
