Were they supposed to invade America to push back against American aggression in the ME?

What did Argentina do in the ME?

Did Iran invade Argentina when I wasn't looking?

I swear most of you seem 1 step removed from being apologists for Al Qaeda when it comes to defending terrorism.

[Imran Siddiqui]

i dread to think what that makes the US government then

Srsly.

Al Queda are now Iranian? Your version of the world must be an interesting place to live.

The two (very probably) Hezbollah-backed bombings of israeli targets over here killed orders of magnitude less people than the US-backed dictatorships.

A few decades before you'd overthrown their government in a coup and installed a brutal dictator for ****s sake. As one of the hostage takers said at the time "You have no right to complain, because you took our whole country hostage in 1953".

Only in your own head. You're pointing at the hostage crisis as if it's some prove of Iran's aggressive tendencies, while completely ignoring the much more aggressive US behaviour that led to that point. This idea that Iran are going to start throwing nukes around is paranoid bull****. The nuclear material would be traced back to them, and their entire government would be annihilated in response.

Yet apparently because some Iranians held some US diplomats hostage once during a revolution to free them from decades of US supported tyranny we're supposed to believe they are all psychopaths. Because of some inflamatory speech that one of their leaders gave domestically no less. ****, if we took seriously all the speeches that the American right wing gave domestically, the entire world would have allied against you years ago.

The first quote clearly illustrated a hostile attitude. How can not support the position that they are combative? I am reminded of Betty Willims, Nobel Peace Prize winner for Northern Ireland. She says the Irish and British take pieces of histroy and throw them like rocks.

You are saying that Iran is dangerous. Why then ignore the danger?

That means they don't count?

Not.

A hostile attitide? Why wouldn't he have a hostile attitude for crying out loud? Iran combative? Because they're not willing to sit back and let America routinely kick them, without finding ways to snap back you mean?

I'm saying that countries like Iran are only dangerous when you make them your enemies. We don't have any fundamental reason for being enemies with Iran, it's just cherrypicking of history by American conservatives (and sadly far too many 'liberals') who do exactly what you just accused me of doing.

Seriously, how many suicide bombs and IED's need to go off before we learn the childlike lesson that if you treat people like ****, they'll find ways to do the same in return? There are countries that are genuinely dangerous, North Korea being the shining example, but Iran? Seriously?

Seriously, how many suicide bombs need to go off before you understand that they are dangerous. Drawing causality from actions of others belittles them. Adults can choose among their influences. We expect them to do so and they have. If we leave them alone, they have already shown a willingness to harass their neighbors.

Why do think genocide as an official policy is unimportant? Give them some respect. Believe that they mean what they say.

What the **** did Israel ever do to Iran, you ******?

Do you take this attitude with Russia as well? It's clearly Ukraine's fault that Putin wants some of them Donetsks. Some countries are actually full of hostile *******s. Are you really so stupid to think that aggression against us is our fault?

[DaShi]

Some of it certainly is.

Language.

It is a consistent inconsistency. Intolerance matters only if directed at the Muslims. Since they are children, they are not responsible for their own intolerance.
