You keep changing the claims, you claimed that when people have lost their family under bombardments that they tend to swear vengeance against "the invader", countless people have lost family in the countless wars in the middle east say Iraq war, Afghanistan, etc.

Very few went to american soil to attack americans.

You ignore they didn't like people like Saddam either, Iraq is not currently in some Saddam whorship cult situation. They recognize Saddam was a dictator, and recognize the deaths of many friends and family was not the monocausal result of US bombardments. They recognize that if only they had toppled Saddam as a local population, and halted the programs adversarial to international community, it might have been avoided.

In the absence of the evidence to your claims you changed it to local violence, which certainly exists, but thats much rather local militia's or terror organizations that were sponsored by Iran. Consider how even Hamas has called on Iran to stop bombing neighbor countries indiscriminately.

We all saw how "happy" your Iranian population was during the protests that directly preceded the US/Israel attacks. We saw how the population in Iran was enjoying some good old police brutality. We saw how those protests started with Mahsa Amini's death. Something broke in Iran. People realized a government murdering their daughter with hydrogen cyanide over at the fashion police is not a desirable government. There is nothing irrational or nonsensical about calling such a population unhappy. They risked and many lost their lives to express opinions.
