Initially I was against the Iran War. I realized it was a knee-jerk reaction to forever wars.

 

Below are the reasons why gradually have come to support it.

1. Trump is different than previous presidents.

2. Iran is the #1 sponsor of terrorism in the world

3. This is about China and oil, not just Iran. China's primary allies for oil was Venezuela and Iran. Wars need oil. This weakens China militarily.

4. Strengthens dollar as world reserve currency and weakens the BRICS currency. Without access to Venezuelan and Iranian oil, China is forced to purchase oil in US dollars.

5. Demonstrates US strength. US military and technology is impressive. This discourages bad actors. “Speak softly and carry a big stick” Teddy Roosevelt.

6. Good for the US. It is America First. This sets up the US for global economic and military dominance.
