> last major source of instability in the region.

Are you forgetting the bad neighbor that keeps attacking most of its other neighbors, even while under ceasefire agreements? And then moving onto the land and saying "this is ours, time to redraw the border again.".

Because that, to me, screams instability.

You mean the bad neighbor whom Iran has constantly funded attacks on from those other neighbors? The bad neighbor who has IRGC Funded terrorist and militant cells along its very border? You mean the bad neighbor whom comes under rocket fire on a routine basis?

Are we forgetting that Iran is the one who has funded Hamas and Hezbollah and provided them safe haven?

Maybe that bad neighbor wouldn’t be a bad neighbor and be attacking the other neighbors. If the other neighbors did not provide shelter for those who wish to burn down the bad neighbors house?

Point is - Iran plays a SIGNIFICANT role in the destabilization of the region. That bad neighbor might be a good neighbor if Iran wasn’t attacking it via proxies.

But I suspect we’re not ready to have that nuanced conversation yet.

I get it, but no, that's not leading to regional instability that actual hostile nations and leadership have been responsible for creating in the region.
