The beef that those "individuals" have with regaining their lands is simply that, the dillusional thinking of a few individuals. The most extremeist of individuals who amazingly constitue less than 1% of the Muslim population. In fact here, I am again going to use math to explain Muslim extremeist do not make-up anywhere near the majority of the population of this religion.

Approximatley 1,000,000,000 practicing Muslim on Earth. 10% of one billion = 10,000,000 . Ten million people is a highly liberal estimate of the fanatical extremist portion of Islam. I am sure if ten million people were attacking the western world, it would be quite noticeable.

The whole situation we are in with Iran right now was instigated by America and Israel. Iran was minding its own business. Thats is until Iraq was taken of course.
For many years, the Iranian regime has tried to procure nuclear weapons. It has tried, for example, to buy nuclear warheads from foreign countries. In the early 1990s, it bought four nuclear warheads from Kazakhstan. But, when the Iranian Resistance revealed the efforts, the regime was unable to transfer them to Iran. It has also attempted to use foreign experts, including from the former republics of the Soviet Union, to acquire nuclear weapons.
The secret nuclear project began several years ago in Natanz, Arak and Saghand. The Tehran regime was seeking to acquire a nuclear arsenal by the year 2004 or 2005. This project has three main parts:
- Uranium is extracted in Saghand;
- Uranium is enriched in Natanz;
- Heavy water is produced in Arak.
After the Iranian Resistance revealed the information about Arak and Natanz sites in August 2002, the Iranian regime has tried to evade international accountability through deception and concealment. While such efforts may slow down things a bit, the project is, the nevertheless, continuing.
For the past decade, Iran has been trying to complete a nuclear power reactor at Bushehr, begun with German assistance during the time of the Shah. Germany froze further cooperation after the 1979 Iranian Revolution. After a period of opposing all programs symbolizing modernization, Iran's Islamic revolutionary leaders signed an agreement with Russia to complete the facility. Tehran has never offered a convincing justification for why it needs the facility, given the fact that it could much more quickly and cheaply use its natural gas resources (much of it flared off) to fuel any needed electricity production.

Export controls by industrialized nations were a second arrow in the quiver of nonproliferation tools. As the result of concerted U.S. diplomacy in the 1980s, China had ceased nuclear cooperation with Iran, a nuclear embargo by Western nuclear suppliers was holding firm, and, through constant U.S. intervention, it was hoped that leakage of sensitive nuclear technology from Russia could be halted.
By the end of 2002, this hopeful view of the international nonproliferation regime was dashed by the discovery that in the previous 18-24 months, despite the vigilance of U.S. and other intelligence services, Iran had secretly made considerable progress on two different routes to nuclear weapons.

Lo and behold, they began to accuse Iran of all kinds of things. Iran simply shook it off of course. Until the threat of pre-emptive declaration of war was instigated by Israelamerica. Thats when their leaders became angry (and who would not). Of course I am sure it is ok to just sit by and accept your country being attacked by a foriegn air force.

That is when Iran actually threatened to fight back (woah big shocker there) The only possible scenario to force them to back down would be the destruction of the land of Israel.
..............
Iran's hardline spiritual leaders have issued an unprecedented new fatwa, or holy order, sanctioning the use of atomic weapons against its enemies.
...............
The comments, which are the first public statement by the Yazdi clerical cabal on the nuclear issue, will be seen as an attempt by the country's religious hardliners to begin preparing a theological justification for the ownership - and if necessary the use - of atomic bombs.
They appeared on Rooz, an internet newspaper run by members of Iran's fractured reformist movement, which picked them up from remarks by Mohsen Gharavian reported on the media agency IraNews.
Rooz reported that Mohsen Gharavian, a lecturer based in a religious school in the holy city of Qom, had declared "for the first time that the use of nuclear weapons may not constitute a problem, according to Sharia."
He also said: "When the entire world is armed with nuclear weapons, it is permissible to use these weapons as a counter-measure. According to Sharia too, only the goal is important."

This just takes too much time for me to debate these issues. I'll just admit everything you say is the truth and be done with it. You are right. I am wrong. I will just continue to live my life as I have been hoping the world does not go to war because of it all.
