Breezes will refuse to fight back when attacked by another entity and can only target another entity if they actively attack on sight. (such as Players and Iron Golems)
Using /damage to pit it against another mob stirs no reaction from the Breeze.
NOTE: Breezes at one point used to retaliate against mobs that attacked them in a previous snapshot, this is currently no longer the case.
Steps to Reproduce:
Summon a Breeze and another mob (blaze and zombie are examples in the attached video)
Use /damage to cause one of the example mobs to damage the Breeze
Expected Result: The Breeze will fight back against the mob that damaged it.
Observed Result: The Breeze doesn't do anything in retaliation.
A video has been attached demonstrating an attempt to anger a Breeze towards both a nearby Zombie and Blaze.
