True.

Iran sponsors global terrorism so it is a threat. But at this point it may be just as effective to contain Iran's ambitions rather than invade.

It's probably worth noting that real power does not reside with the President in Iran, instead it is with the supreme leader Ayatollah Khamenei

Really, Seems to me that majority of Global Terrorists are wahhabist which is a sect of the Sunni branch of Isam.

Why would a Shia nation support sunni's.

You must have learned your middle eastern information from the same guy that taught mcCain.

You know just becuase you call everyone a terrorist doesnt make them a terrorist.

Exactly Bush has to call them a terrorist.

Iran is the most active sponsor of terrorism.

State Sponsors: Iran - Council on Foreign Relations

Hezbollah is directly allied with Iran.

Iran's ties to terroism in Iraq, especially against US troops.

Iran has never attacked american soil.

Do some of them support anti american/isrealli interests? Yes
While I dont agree with what they are doing I also think
People are getting a little to trigger happy when it comes to the term terrorist.

Not everyone that is against american interests is a terrorist.
They think they are stainding up for something but since the middle east doesnt fit into nice boundries like europe its not as easy to say this country is our friend and this one isnt becuase it varies from tribe to tribe and from sect to sect.

We will never solve the problems in the middle east by walking around with a big stick threating everyone. Nor do I really see any reason we should solve thier problems to begin with.

Some people want the USA to police the world.

I just want us to take out the people that attacked us.

I'm curious....do you think we should "save" peoples from genocide like Darfur? or when we could have in Rwanda?

Thats actually debatable...there are many in the Agency (retired of course) that have published opinions stating that Hez had sponsored and trained the attackers of the US embassy in Beirut.

My opinion on that is, if you are going to "save" people from genocide you have to actually do it when it is happening. Unlike how people say well we got rid of Saddam who committed genocide, as if that was the reason for getting rid of him. When in fact we (the US and Britain) armed him and rewarded him when the genocide was going on. They had to actually do it at the time if they are going to do it at all.
