The problem in modern wars is that those who start them claim that they do this for survival, but the claim is not based on any real action of the adversary or on any evidence that the adversary is dangerous, but on beliefs that the adversary might want to endanger the survival of the attacker some time in an indefinite future, and perhaps might even be able to do that.
Nobody who starts a war today acknowledges that they do this for other reasons than "survival", e.g. for stealing various kinds of resources from the attacked.
It has become difficult to distinguish those who truly fight for survival from those who only claim to do this.

No, they do not
Iran launched a 1-ton payload (e.g. nuclear capable) rocket with a 2000 km range two days ago. That rocket can threaten US assets and allies even into Europe. And, of course, and small ship or container ship even could carry a nuclear weapon into an American port.
There is no proof Iran has nuclear weapons.
This has been covered extensively, and this kind of misinformation is exactly the same thing that drove the US and half of NATO into the Iraq war.
Absolutely unbelievable this is happening again!
Iran currently does not currently have nuclear weapons. Iran has a nuclear program to develop nuclear weapons.
Here is an Iranian, Persian language interview with Ali Motahari, deputy speaker of the Iranian parliament:

He says:
In English:There is proof: there is no way the US and/or Israel would have done this if they knew that Iran had nuclear weapons.
