That is just a minor point in my comment, may be it was just a racist soldier. The OP asked why US is targeting Iran, and the major point of the comment was that Iran is modern colonizer, who has sort of colonized 3 other countries. and waiting to do the same to Israel and Saudi. They are already lobbing rockets into Israel and Saudi. To compare this, the 1991 Iraq war was because Saddam overtly captured Kuwait and look at the flak Russia is getting for taking control of Crimea, and people normally justify the Sanctions on Russia because of its actions. But Iran has covertly taken over 3 other nations, and control most of their oil fields, and still people are wondering why Iran is being treated as such. The point of the video is, for close to a decade Iran has been exporting Shia Jihadis into Syria, and Assad is just a puppet.
