“Israel and western officials want an excuse to go to war with Iran”
Fixed the article.
Weird, I distinctly don’t get that impression from the information in the article. Appears that Hezbollah is asking Iran to attack Israel.
I’m not surprised they wanted help defending themselves from the genocidal terrorists in Israel.
Is Hezbollah seeking a wider war?
Israel is actively working towards a wider war.
It failed to goad Iran last time, so it started bombing more of its neighbours to create war.
A direct Iranian attack against Israel would dramatically destabilize the region even further and likely draw the U.S. into more active fighting.
Understood.
Edit: wait that just seems to be the Iranian presidents opinion…
Yeah that’s the biggest problem at the moment.
No one can deal with the Israel problem as long as Biden, Harris, Trump, and co. will protect and fund their crimes.
Also a major underlying problem is the nukes. The only thing worse than genocidal terrorism is nuclear genocidal terrorism.
Ah, apologies if this is prying, if you are eligible, would you not be voting for Harris or Trump?
Iran already directly attacked Israel on April 13th this year. They sent over a hundred drones and missiles.
Source for those interested (it is also sourced in the article to another axios article):

On 13 April 2024, the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), a branch of the Iranian Armed Forces, in collaboration with the Islamic Resistance in Iraq, Lebanese militant group Hezbollah, and the Ansar Allah (Houthis), launched retaliatory attacks against Israel and the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights with loitering munitions, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles. The attack was codenamed by Iran as Operation True Promise (Persian: وعده صادق, romanized: va’de-ye sādeq). Iran said it was retaliation for the Israeli bombing of the Iranian embassy in Damascus on 1 April, which killed two Iranian generals. The strike was seen as a spillover of the Israel–Hamas war and marked Iran’s first direct attack on Israel since the start of their proxy conflict.
…
The attack was the largest attempted drone strike in history, intended to overwhelm anti-aircraft defenses. It was the first time since Iraq’s 1991 missile strikes that Israel was directly attacked by the military of another state. Iran’s attacks drew criticism from the United Nations, several world leaders, and political analysts, who warned that they risk escalating into a full-blown regional war. Israel retaliated by executing limited strikes on Iran on 18 April 2024.
Which was retaliation for Israel carrying out an assassination on Iranian soil. Context always matters.
Which was retaliation for Iran funding and arming terrorists. Context does matter.
Israel and Iran both seem to want a wider war
The article seems to disagree.
Genocide thrives on lazy false equivalences.
I’m not surprised they wanted help defending themselves from the genocidal terrorists in Israel.
Hezbollah/Lebanon should probably stop attacking Israel with rockets if they don’t want Israel to fight back.
Israel should stop being a terrorist colonial state engaged in apartheid and now genocide if they didn’t want to be resisted.
Here’s some data to go along with your BS delusions:
