No Islamic terrorist attack in the US has come from Iran, they almost all came from Saudi Arabia.

Yes, you are making a point that the other guy isn’t talking about. If you wanna cherry pick and make some niche argument then yes, Iran hasn’t done what you’re saying. But if you want to be reasonable and pragmatic, Iran has caused the deaths of many US service members and acted directly against American interests countless times.

This is like trying to make a point that Ted Bundy never killed anyone in Vermont when the conversation is about serial killers.

I was just pointing out how odd it seems to me that one country has attacked us here at home, multiple times, and we made allies of them.

Another country has never attacked us here at home, and we call them the enemy.

The attacks are more cyber style and are financial and political than any religious motivation. (That is my understanding)
