So, if a few Americans decide to go overseas and train to come back and kill fellow Americans, does it mean that Americans want to overthrow their government? Not likely.

Today, Iran's Jewish population is the second largest in the Middle East, after Israel.
The Jewish community of Persia, modern-day Iran, is one of the oldest in the Diaspora, and its historical roots reach back to the 6th century B.C.E., the time of the First Temple. Their history in the pre-Islamic period is intertwined with that of the Jews of neighboring Babylon. Cyrus, the first of the Archemid dynasty, conquered Babylon in 539 B.C.E. and permitted the Jewish exiles to return to the Land of Israel, bringing the First Exile to an end. The Jewish colonies were scattered from centers in Babylon to Persian provinces and cities such as Hamadan and Susa.
Judaism is one of the oldest religions practiced in Iran and dates back to the late biblical times.
