Maybe they shouldn't bomb Iran if they don't want them to strike back?

Like I want all of this conflict to end, but Israel just bombed Iran's consulate in Syria, killing 2 generals and 5 officers. What did they think is gonna happen when they do that? Do they expect a country to just say "oh no don't do it again please."?

If it was US generals and officers the US would have went ape shit about it in response

Israel was striking their consulate in response to rockets that were fired at them, but the detail that people miss is that the rockets fired was in response to Israel previously striking them as well.

As another commenter said, Iran has the right to defend itself. If Israel wants Iran to stop attacking them, maybe they should try not attacking Iran?

(If this came off as sarcastic or combative it wasn't intended, just trying to say how I see the situation between Iran and Israel but I suck at formatting)
