    They WANT another major terrorist event. Hell, they would also rather see see dozens of little terrorist events (mass shootings, bombings, etc) by disgruntled Iranians or other people who are pissed off at the US’s actions. They need this shit to justify their actions and enact more measures that are vague enough to apply to anyone… and then apply it exclusively to their opponents and anyone they don’t like. This is how you get highly oppressive laws that are allegedly supposed to stop criminals and terrorists but don’t seem to be doing much in preventing that, but are doing a damn fine job of making social changes and legislation passing/enforcement of things that protect people a lot more difficult.
