Observation of where their arms and a sizable portion of their funding comes from.

By that logic the US is the one preventing peace in the Middle East given how much weapons and political cover they give Israel. The US hasn’t even been holding Israel accountable for the expansion of illegal settlements despite the Oslo Accord and two-state promise since 1993.

Iran is filling a gap that was left when Arab governments stopped caring about the resistance. Otherwise Iran being Shia is unpopular with the Sunni Palestinians.

Oh and most funding actually comes from Qatar and other governments not just Iran. They also receive many donations from concerned people around the world, I am one concerned person.
