Well, a couple of days ago Iran fired 2 missiles at a US base in the Indian Ocean with twice the range of anything they were supposed to be allowed to have.

That was pretty validating for the war effort.

Iran shooting back after being attacked validates the decision to attack them in the first place?

"supposed to be allowed to have."

Ridiculous premise. They armed themselves thusly because American politicians have been singing "Bomb Bomb Bomb, Bomb Bomb Iran!" for generations.

That is not a validation of anything and it is not a US base.
