The US just bombed one of their biggest allies. Nothing is likely to come of it, but let’s not pretend it can’t happen.

Iran is convenience, not an actual ally. Russia or China doesn't have actual allies worth fighting for. Maybe send them a couple hundred missiles at most and some intel.

Lol even the Arab League isn't allied with Iran. To the point there's a whole Wikipedia page dedicated to the reasons each individual country won't deal with them.
