I am really saddened that you don't see the light on this. Iran is a financier of Hellbollah, Hamas, al-Qaeda in Mesopotomia that killed US forces with Iranian IEDs and more. I know that extremists are to be frowned upon in Islam but when you can't really excuse an entire country who yells Death to America, Death to Israel every weekend.
What is your point? Some of that is propaganda and some are reports of SF activites in the region. (And no, I will not specify for OPSEC) God forbid we should oversee some retailation on the Revolutionary Guards that kill American soldiers.
So you don't think that is Iran had a nuclear weapon, they would attack Israel with it?
I don't think so but that's just me.
I will let the President of Iran speak for himself.
so what , such things are said all the time???
similar examples:
"We walked outside, Ben-Gurion accompanying us. Allon repeated his question, What is to be done with the Palestinian population?' Ben-Gurion waved his hand in a gesture which said 'Drive them out!" -- Yitzhak Rabin, leaked censored version of Rabin memoirs, published in the New York Times, 23 October 1979.
"[Israel will] create in the course of the next 10 or 20 years conditions which would attract natural and voluntary migration of the refugees from the Gaza Strip and the west Bank to Jordan. To achieve this we have to come to agreement with King Hussein and not with Yasser Arafat." -- Yitzhak Rabin (a "Prince of Peace" by Clinton's standards), explaining his method of ethnically cleansing the occupied land without stirring a world outcry. (Quoted in David Shipler in the New York Times, 04/04/1983 citing Meir Cohen's remarks to the Knesset's foreign affairs and defense committee on March 16.)

I'm not into politics and I don't know alot and I know that I can't argue well because I'm a nooob at these stuff.

That's like saying it's ok because Annie Oakley her gun more times at the target range in a year then that short guy who mumbles to himself about how he's going to make everbody pay.
You can say you aren't condoning it... but really bringing up how many missles the US fired is irrelevent unless you actually want to condone it... or at the very least try to insist the two are similar.

Explain then why Iran has been called out on being the biggest supported of terrorism in the world since before 9/11 and even before Bush was in office.

Japan has got to be crapping themselves right now. sometimes I really wonder what Kim Jong il is smoking. he keeps pissing everyone off, so sanctions are put in place, then his people resort to cannibalism at times. its just messed up.

isn't this a little bit similar to the links above?
Yours... no. You didn't even read yours.
For example your second article is about the FBI trying to stop gun smuggling.
US guns are going to end up in terrorist hands because US guns are one of the two most produced guns in the world.
It's like claiming that Coke supports terrorists beacuse terrorists drink coke.
ok sorry for the second lol
what about mujahdeen khaleq and and taliban?
The Taliban has never been listed as a terrorist group by the US, UK, EU... etc. Basically noone.
As for the Mujahideen... the only proof the article gives is "Hey Bush got some more money for destabalizing Iran."
That money could of just as eaisly gone to bribing high level military and political officials. The whole assertian is made based off a single article of which there is no test of validity.

Probably...
"the more sanctions that get put on us the more i can blame it on outsiders and the more money i can funnel towards weapons technology, awesome stuff for me and my chronies and the more i can consolidate my power base."
Maybe he'll try and pull a hitler too and cause as much damage as possible to other countries and his own once his health starts to fade just so he'll be remembered.
