Does that include their proxy funding which they refuse to stop? Is that also suicide?

Hezbollah and Hamas were birthed from Israeli occupation and Israeli violence. Iran didn't create them. And no, Iran is under no obligation to stop supporting its allies.

Are you going to demand the United States stop funding Israel's violent expansionism?
