Lol.....yeah, why invade when you can just be the worlds largest sponsor of terrorism? Iran is just a peaceful, tolerant country that's been bullied by Israel.
Oh, I almost forgot, Death to America!!!

How do I say this politely...you're a dunce, a mamaluke. The world's largest sponsor of terrorism is the USA and it's not even close. The US and UK overthrew the democratically elected Mossadegh in 1953 and installed the ruthless Shah, who was a pawn to Big Oil. Then Washington banked Iraq as a proxy state and endorsed the invasion of Iran that saw over 1 million Iranians murdered. So, why don't you educate me on who Iran invaded in the past 188 years?
Obama alone has bombed and/or invaded 7 countries. Israel will not even permit inspections of the 200 plus nukes that they possess. They did not sign the Non-Proliferation Treaty. Iran is the most inspected country on earth. But, you keep the foam finger high and proudly chant USA as it bankrupts our country.
The world's largest sponsor of terrorism is the U.S. and it's not even close? I give you today's modern, uber sophisticated liberal, who clearly just loves them some USA! lol
Hey, Nat! You're a LIBERAL! I bet you never knew that! Or, in this case, an uber-sophisticated liberal. Those pesky words never seem to have a consistent meaning, do they?
Nat, I agree with you 100%. But, someone told me something once (that I should adhere to more often myself). Whenever you try to convey the truthful aspects to things like what you posted about above, you have to be very careful to DE-personalize it. Especially when you're presenting it to people who have a much more simplistic perception of the world in a political, historical sense. When most of these people, who tend to instinctively have strong, and very simplistic, nationalistic attitudes, hear (or read) things like "The USA is...", they instinctively take it personal. To them, the USA is THEM, as an individual. They have been conditioned to align themselves with vague references like "country" and "America" and when you say "America is responsible..." you might as well be saying "You are responsible..." Their need, and therefore ability, to detach from the nationalism references is very little. They have the ability, but lack any motivation to differentiate. So, try to be more specific and use terms that are less likely to trigger a personal reaction. Instead of USA, try "The irresponsible people in our leadership" or something that allows them to separate their association. People are inherently tribal.
