What military action(s) has Iran actually taken that demonstrates their nation is an ongoing threat?

Answer 1

Publicly they have taken none. Their gov. has supported groups on the U.S. terrorist list. But when congress rejects adding their Republican Guard to the list and Bush and Chaney go and do it anyway what dose that say for him? The ppl of Iran don’t really like there President but they hates us more b/c we try to stick our noose where it shouldn’t go. There are places we need to be and places we don’t and Iran is one place we don’t. Israel has had a plan for the last decade to take care of Iran if they need to and are more than capable of doing it and we should support them if they do but not by sending in troops of our own

Answer 2

They've been funding a lot of terrorist groups (some openly) and even control quite a few of them.

They're also believed to be involved in the violence in Iraq (which would be in the self interest of the oppressive government there since US success in Iraq would give the US confidence if the US decided to invade Iran while a US failure would result in the US not invading another country).

The government is also oppressive so that alone is enough reason to get rid of the government but just keeping them from getting nuclear bombs long enough for their oil to run out would probably be the least worst option.

OTOH they're going to have to switch away from oil before it runs out so we'd need to be careful not to interfere with nuclear power programmes.

Answer 3

Most Americans hate and distrust Iranians. Most Iranians hate and distrust Americans. There is a war hawk running the USA. There is a war hawk running Iran.
That is a recipe for conflict.
To get onto the road of trust and peaceful relations, the most powerful of these two countries would have to take the first step. Only the most powerful can afford to do so without worry of security.
You reap what you sow. Hard line foreign policy will be echoed by hard line foreign policy. Does America want a leadership that will allow hatred to fester?
That's the 2008 decision. Don't you think?

Answer 4

Satellite photos show the construction of a huge nuclear facility being constructed, then completely buried and the terrain changed to appear like the surrounding terrain. Also, there are restrictions on inspectors and even the IAEA has complained about it.
Those Iranians are up to no good.

Answer 5

Obama isn't in everywhere to threaten Iran.  If he were, I doubt they could evaluate it a severe danger.  If the man don't have a difficulty sitting in a church, whose chief provides presents to Louis Farrakhan, (Spell it) why might want to they take him heavily? I for one am only a wee bit in contact about this Muslim connection.  remember, his father is/change into Muslim. No, he had no administration over who fathered him--and that i have no longer some thing antagonistic to that. although, i'm in contact that contained in the destiny, could he be contained in the White domicile, his rules may be swayed contained in the incorrect route by ability of his previous.
