Is the Iran regime bad? Yes. Are they colonial outpost that is actively committing genocide? No. Are the Iranian people settlers like the Israelis? No.

Who is dragging the US into war with Iran and potentially WW3? Israel.

Does this help maybe?

But Israel is not expanding into Iran or bombing civilian areas (yet). If we're purely talking about Israel - Iran conflict, you have to do some serious brain gymnastics to wish for IRGC to win. Best outcome here is the fall of Iranian islamic regime and people can take back their freedom

I have no clue how much this will hurt Israel, but I have my doubts the pain will be big.

You have to do at least as much gymnastics to ignore the context surrounding this conflict though.

Israel literally bombed apartment complex with scientists as part of their unprovoked attacks.

A change of regime in Iran is the wet dream of Netanyahu. Just this should tell you how bad of a thing it is.

and people can take back their freedom

You need to read a bit on Libya and Syria, the gracious interventions by the west did NOT result in a blossoming LGTPDASODNA+ democracy haven.

Gonna ask for a more credible source on those numbers. That website is basically yellow press of Iranian state media

We have entered the "Ok so they are bombing civilian areas but its not that bad" stage of denial.
