THIS! After what happened in Israel/Gaza the gloves are off. Iran wants to be coy about it but their fingerprints are all over more that we can let slide. Ukraine/Gaza/Iraq to varying degrees. I do know rank and file Iranians, especially young ones have no love loss for the regime so judicious targeting is paramount.
However, SH!T needs to blow up in their backyard that's important and in way we can play coy even though everyone knows where it came from.
On another note, I'm sure Israel has a nice Rolodex of important things worth targeting.
Truth in advertising: I admit this fight is personal to me because Quds proxies tried more than once and came a little too close to killing me in Iraq.
