Yes, that's my point, all countries at times do ####ty things, it doesn't make them totally evil, by painting Iran as an evil regime it makes any stupid thing done against them ok.
By painting Iran as evil it excuses all kinds of dumb arse actions which will make things worse, in just the same way as if you just assume the US is always good it also excuses all kinds of bad things, in truth like everything else in the world there are shades of grey.
To be clear I am not a fan of the Iranian regime, but I find our ally Saudi Arabia even worse
