Israel had bombed Iran's consulate before the assassinations.

He's not going to answer he just said it wouldn't be in their best interest which sounds like a threat to me. As an American veteran, I'm ashamed of the US government for acting as if they are the ones with a right to decide who has a right to defend themselves. Word of warning, if they are willing to tell another government that they don't have the right to defend themselves against the US or it's allies, then they will tell a US civilian the same thing when it comes to defending themselves or their rights. Mark my words. The supreme Court already destroyed the first amendment to clear the path for US authoritarianism.

Only israel has the right to self-defence. They are, after all, God's favorite people. If they strike you, you just take it and thank them for their divine touch. If you fight back, you are antisemitic.

if, while the Israeli PM was recently in the US, addressing both Houses of Congress, Iran had assasinated him while he was a guest of the US, and on US soil, I'm just wondering what the US response would be.

I don't trust Kirby or his boss. They both use double-speak.

Question: "Do Iran have the right to self-defense?" Answer: "That's an unproductive question."
-
YES!!! Absolutely!
-
This is call USA hypocrisy.
-
Saying that Iran has the right to self defense is like saying that Hitler had the right to attack Europe.
