They literally sat there while a spider killed the 2 trees and their brother invaded and murdered Feanor's dad. What. The. Fuck. Of course he was pissed!

It's not entirely germane to an evaluation of Feanor and his speech, but it's interesting that the Valar only decided not to let Morgoth destroy Middle Earth after Earendil proved that holding a silmaril lets you reach Aman in spite of the Valar’s defenses, and Morgoth still had two. That's the kind of selfless justice I like in my angelic overlords, for sure!
