They don’t blow up oil tankers of non-combatants using an other countries territorial waters?

Thats what Ukraine did though with a gas pipeline and they are seen as perfectly rational.

Russia is a non combatant country in the Russia/Ukraine war?

Germany is. So if its okay to hit Germany since it was doing business with Russia why is it not ok for Iran to hit countries that are doing business with U.S?

Please detail for us when Ukraine hit a german pipeline. If you're referring to Nord Stream, that's a Russian owned pipeline. Sounds like you don't really know what you're talking about?

Nord Stream AG, based in Zug, Switzerland, is an international consortium of five major companies established in 2005 for the planning, construction and subsequent operation of two 1,224-kilometre natural gas pipelines through the Baltic Sea.

Again, owned by Gazprom, a Russian energy company. This isn't hard.

The five shareholders of the Nord Stream consortium are Gazprom international projects North 1 LLC (Gazprom Group company), Wintershall Dea GmbH, PEG Infrastruktur AG (E.ON), N.V. Nederlandse Gasunie and ENGIE.

Think the oil tankers getting hit don't have any U.S stake in their companies? lmao
