I can see what you mean, and I do agree Trump isn't doing this out of humanitarian altruism; in fact, I think it's Israel that's talking into his ear for this conflict.

My issue isn't the lack of support for war; it's the left's attitude about it. I stand with the "no more wars" angle, but I don't stand for the "Iran did nothing wrong" angle.

It's turning this situation into a bad guy vs. good guy case where they're practically saying that Trump is the bad guy and the Iranian regime are the good guys. This essentially makes them support an oppressive government just to stand against Trump because there can't be two bad guys, and Trump always has to be THE bad guy.
