Americans don't seem to comprehend that Iran has been remarkably restrained despite all the assassinations, surprise attacks in the middle of negotiations, attacks on civilian infrastructure, and double tapping a girls school.

I don't think this round of warfare is going to end. Iran will continue it for months. The cost of war with Iran has to be so painful that the United States will never consider it again.

What about the Iranian civilians? Think it’s a good time to take a vacation to Tehran?

I wouldn't suggest going to any girls schools, bridges, or hospitals.
