completely wrong..
USA economy depends on military spending -rockets, bombs, assets etc. So, every bomb dropped in Iran means- a few hundred working positions back home. Israel is no different, much of Europe too.
It is always open vacancy for next "enemy"- that has leadership willing to accept bombs over their teritories.
Such leaders/ countries should meet a few preconditions before bombing:
1. Teritory that bas no big impact over sourounding countries
2. Citizens willing to die for Great Leader
3. Some military able to give resistance ( if anyhow possible w/o USA victims)
...
Some of such leaders got a few % remitance from western military sector, but many works pro bono.
So far, Iran has proved to be excellent player in such game. Big country- that could accept a lot bombs
Leadership works pro bono
A very few casualties caused by enemy fire ( most of them locals in Gulf countries)
Iran action keeps price of oil high ( 10% of 100 is more than 10% of 50)
And so on.
But, to be honest, there are also positive sides of these sad stories- electrification in Europe and energy independence got new momentum- that is good..
