What Does Iran Want?

Iran is becoming increasingly vocal in both their opposition to the United States and in the defense of their sprint to obtain nuclear weapons technology. In recent days Iran's ally, Russia, accused the United States of trying to "dominate the world". It is actually Islamic Terror that is attempting to dominate the world.

What could Iran possibly gain by facing off against the greatest military and economic power in the world? Practically, they can gain nothing. Their economy is in shambles. Iranian citizens and politicians alike are grumbling about Ahmadinejad's increasing hostility against the Western World. What does Ahmadinejad want?

Iran wants to dominate the Middle East. Their nation is not composed of Arabs primarily. Most of them are actually Persians. They don't even speak Arabic. They speak Farsi. They see themselves as the "Persian Empire" that once dominated the Middle East.

The Iraq War provided Iran with a security vacuum in the heart of the Middle East. If it were not for Iranian meddling, the security situation in Iraq would be much better. Iranian security agents smuggle in weapons. They train Iraqi rebels in bomb making techniques. Iranian-made IED's have been found all over Iraq. We are practically at war with Iran already.

The Iranians are perhaps the most volatile Shi'ite Muslims in the world. They believe that facing off against the "Infidels" (that's you and your family) will bring about an apocalypse that will cause the "12th Imam" of Shi'ite Islam to come out of hiding and take over the world under the Islamic flag. Ahmadinejad has stated recently that he would be willing to sacrifice 50% of his nation's population in order to destroy Israel. That shows the mindset of a typical Islamic Fascist. This man isn't anything unusual in the Middle East. You would find 50 more like him in a simple market in Tehran, all willing to kill themselves and their children in order to kill YOU. If you think you aren't a target, think again. The day you were born an American was the day you were born with a target on your back.

So what is the solution for this Iranian cultural and military menace? War. Taking out Iran would nullify their military action against us in Iraq, thus stabilizing that country. Perhaps then we should think about doing the same thing to Iran that we did to Iraq, and create a government based on Democracy.

Numerous Liberals are now jumping up and screaming in support of Iran. They are accusing the United States of fabricating evidence that Iranian bombs are killing American soldiers. Even in the face of high ranking Iranian security agents being captured in Iraq, they claim Iran is being unfairly targeted. Why is there such heart-felt support of Iran from the American Left? Are they actually openly supporting an outright enemy of the United States that has threatened us and our allies with destruction? Are Liberals actually domestic insurgents-in-waiting? Are they a direct threat to national security? They are obviously enemies of the United States. Whether they are direct, internal threat to our security remains to be seen. They are on Iran's side, after all.
