Do not count on me (and probably a very large majority of europe) to support your shit country or israel doing war in Iran.
Well, I really didn't expect YOU to go along with this. But I'm pretty sure Europe will get onboard, hopefully sooner rather than later.
Just remember that everyone who stubbornly refuses to see reality now, will have to kiss Trump's ass in the future. ^^

As the former No. 2 at the International Atomic Energy Agency, Olli Heinonen, has doggedly pointed out, the Iranians already may have a substantial secret stockpile of component parts for advanced centrifuges. The Obama administration chose to ignore this real possibility, as it chose to ignore most of the “possible military dimension” concerns that should have been at the heart of a real arms-control agreement.
To Trump’s credit, he has chosen not to ignore the deal’s counterproductive sunset clauses, which make restrictions on Iran temporary. He hasn’t ignored that Revolutionary Guard bases, where we know Iran has engaged in nuclear-weapons research, are now effectively off-limits to inspectors.
He is not ignoring the regime’s development of long-range ballistic missiles that only makes sense if armed with atomic warheads. He is not ignoring the strategic and moral absurdity that monies delivered to Iran under the deal abet Tehran’s imperialism, especially its savage campaign in Syria, which has now claimed hundreds of thousands of lives.
Stunningly, Trump is not doing what democracies almost always do: Punt problems down the road, where they inevitably become far worse.
The number 2 guy at the IAEA has been saying over and over, you guys are missing a lot, that's been going on.
Might want to listen to that guy.
Btw, that guy is Olli Heinonen

Previously, he was the Deputy Director-General for Safeguards at the International Atomic Energy Agency.[1] As such, he helped identify A. Q. Khan.
Heinonen studied radiochemistry at the University of Helsinki where he obtained his Ph.D with a dissertation on nuclear material analysis in 1981.[2] As Senior Research Officer at the Technical Research Centre of Finland Reactor Laboratory, Heinonen was in charge of research and development related to nuclear waste solidification and disposal. Heinonen co-authored several patents on radioactive waste solidification. In 1983 he joined the IAEA. From 1999 to 2002, he was Director of Operations A and from 2002–2005, he was the Director of Operations B in the Department of Safeguards.
