I'd argue Iran has gone far beyond the "provoking" stage. How many rockets from Hezbollah and Hamas that were supplied by Iran landed on Israel? Hezbollah follows the doctrines (and often direct orders) of the Ayatollah, have been trained by Iran, have been provided with weapons by Iran, receives billions of dollars from Iran, etc.... at what point is an attack from Hezbollah not a direct attack from Iran?

Do you believe speaking events within one nation’s borders are valid provocations of military action from another nation, to the point where they justify those actions?
Yes or no?
