Middle East escalation is being driven by the West & Israel, not Iran.

As Iran prepares to strike back against Israel, why is it that they need to de-escalate, yet Israel have a right to defend themselves?
Right, so Iran are apparently gearing up to hit back at Israel and are apparently planning to strike Israeli military and government targets using missile attacks by Iranian proxies, Iran’s allies in the Middle East to launch from. Now all of this stems from of course that unprovoked attack on the Iranian Embassy in Damascus, the Syrian capital, part of which appears to be an Israeli desire to escalate matters in the Middle East, yet the only political calls from the West are towards Iran to not escalate tensions, to not make matters worse. Well, this has me wondering where are the calls for Iran to be able to defend itself then? Israel has been permitted to flattened Gaza and kill tens of thousands of innocent Gazans as part of it’s right to defend itself, against an occupied territory and occupied people at that, as we keep getting told by numerous pathetic politicians globally, from an incursion into Israel, the fatalities from which are a matter of debate still as to how many died at Hamas’ hands or Israel’s own, yet an historically unprecedented attack on a consulate in another nation entirely, not directly involved at all, and Iran don’t have that same right to defend itself? In what way is that possibly right and if Western leaders really do want to de-escalate tensions, they could look to their own support of an out of control rogue nation, run by an out of his gourd maniac and start there before they lecture others.
Right so Iran are apparently planning on attacking Israel imminently, planning to target military and government assets in payback to the unprovoked, unwarranted strike on what was a diplomatic building, the Iranian embassy in Damascus. But in all the media when it comes to talking about this, all we ever hear is that Iran striking at Israel, will just escalate tensions.
I really am getting fed up with this. If Western leaders really wanted to de escalate tensions, well where do I start!
Genocide Joe can stop sending Iranian weaponry to Ukraine intended for Yemen and stop arming Israel at the same time. The UK can also pay heed to that legal advice it has been given that it won’t publish because we’re all supposed to believe it says Israel aren’t breaking international humanitarian law and keep sending arms to Israel as a consequence. Western powers can enforce the rulings of the International Court of Justice and the UN Security Council and get humanitarian aid through, with military assistance if necessary, to stop the IDF or the settler movements from blocking that. It can draw the bloody line at Israel having a right to defend itself for one night of incursion by Hamas with 6 months of outright slaughter against people it already occupies illegally and has done for decades.
The US and UK could stop taking potshots at the Houthis in Yemen who are blockading the Red Sea in support of Gaza and really have been the only avenue of Iranian involvement having been supplying Yemen with the means to do so.
De-escalate tensions? The West could shut Israel down overnight and end the tensions when it is the source of it all!
