Kaaba was a temple which Muhammad himself "purified" by breaking all the idols. So, Kaaba is not considered an idol by Muslims
It is forbidden in Islam to worship any symbol.
Kaba may not be an idol but it is still a symbol and Muslim do worship it. So maybe radical Sunni want to get rid of it.

No, Kaaba is a place, not a symbol. People don't worship Kaaba but worship in Kaaba. Kaaba is the grandest mosque of Islam. Mosques are not prohibited

That seems plausible.

No, Kaaba had pedestal to keep idols but Muhammad destroyed all idols. Whatever remains is just a marker or design, not idol

If it's a marker or design it's a symbol.
Mosque are empty within aren't they?

Very less still. Trump's own base is dead against a profligate war.
As for drone shooting USA can very well shoot down anything of choice to avenge it.

Pompeo called Jaishankar yesterday.. ostensibly to congratulate him on his appointment as EAM. Later in the day, India sends 2 warships to protect India flagged ships moving through the gulf, in essence becoming the first country to send ships to support US in ensuring freedom of navigation in the gulf . Hmmm ..
US was desperate for some moral support here... Wonder how Uncle Sam would return the favour..

There is already freedom of navigation in Gulf straits. Indian navy was dispatched to protect Indian merchant fleet only, not for freedom of navigation. India could be sending fleet as a deterrent to USA activity too. It is wrong to assume Indian navy na supporting USA against Iran. Indian interests is to ensure Iran situation is maintained stable.
