They make a world-wide disruption and then end up on their asses and having to pay Iran just to try and patch up what they ruined for everyone.

Why any other country would want to even be 'diplomatic' with this joke of a nation anymore is a surprise to me. It is obvious that we are becoming a real threat to the entire planet.

And, we don't seem too worried about what this nation had wrought. That is just as surprising.
