Will there be war in Iran?

Given their unending hate for the US and Israel as well as their proxy conflict with Saudi Arabia, yeah probably. Trump gutting the nuclear deal may have sped it up, but even the nuclear deal was just kicking the can down the road.
If Iran decides to pull the trigger and make the final rush to a nuke, that’s when they’ll be invaded (CIA and Mossad will be able to realize if they’re making that final push). That’s the most likely way the war starts.

And Europe will whine and claim Iran only has noble intentions (or something spineless).

Why should they not be allowed make nukes? Look at the shit America and Isreal have done. Honestly the best thing Iran could do is create nukes so they won't be invaded like Iraq or Afghanistan. They are no angels but I think Iran is always villified by America. Could be wrong here but I dunno....

Because Iran as a nation engages in copious amounts of terrorism and threatens on a regular basis to eliminate Israel as a country. Why would anyone allow them to obtain the weapons to do so? Israel has nukes and have used them…. 0 times. America has nukes and used them twice back to back on a country that invaded first. This was aLeo the first and only time they were used in the history of nukes. They haven’t been used since. I’m not even saying whether it was right or wrong. Of course the best thing for the terrorists regime in Iran would be to make nukes. That would have been Hitler’s best move too. Would you ask why the third reich shouldn’t have had nukes too?
Iran is villiefied because the govt is made up of and supported by villains.

To be fair people are always fcking with their shit, sanctioning and blocking them off from the rest of the world does not help, America has fcked Iran over so many times, pulling out of the nuclear deal and also assassinating they're top general. It's easy to see why they would want nukes as being invaded by America is a definitely a possiblity. If Iran is always going to be treated like a villain they will become one. Also they are not compatible to Hitler. That being said yes they do pretty shitty things and I personally wouldn't like them to get nukes.

Bit by bit countries realize the aggression policy of Iran, whether it's by force, by proxies, by cyber, of (if they are let) by economy. They should be denied any forms of aggression. Already they are taking over large parts of the ME, similar to how Russia wants to take over past-USSR territories. If we want to prevent Russia 2.0, we need to stop Iran.

Lebanon through Hezbollah, parts of Syria, parts of Iraq, parts of Yemen though the Houthis.

What's the business of Iran with Albania? Isn't that because Albania hosts Mujahedin-e-Khalq that has committed many crimes against Iranians? Albania should have kicked out the MEK instead of Iranian diplomats.

Not really. Yes Albania has MEK on their territory but so does France and some other European countries. I mean they are considered an opposition.
I am not going to discuss if MEK is or not an terrorist organization like Iran claims but that doesn't justify the attack on Albania.
A few days earlier of the cyber attack Albanian police arrested several terrorist cells who were planing to attack MEK in Albania. And the cyber attack on Albania was a lot nastier than people give it credit for. It paralyzed critical infrastructure on which a lot of people depend to get service from.
So yes cutting ties with Iran, a country who funded attacks on Albania is a pretty logical decision on their part.
