He likes to talk tough and push buttons, but in reality what he says doesn't really matter as most countries continue to ignore what he has to say. He likes to talk shit and brag about how mighty his nation is but in reality they have about as much power as Iraq had before we invaded them, military wise.

 

Iran and pre-invasion Iraq are not comparable. I believe a few Cent-Com commanders have said that Iran is the most capable military in the Middle East (Israel is not a part of Cent-Com). Not only is Iran's military large and capable, but the Revolutionary Guard is a formidable force. When you include the paramilitary organizations (Basij Militia), Iran is a force to be reckoned with.
