I look at Iran and I don't see a first-strike scenario. I see a beaten-down nation who is trying to stand up and say "Oh yeah? We'll I'm just as good as the rest of you."

The nations I fear are Israel and the United States. These are aggressive, militarized nations who have proven that they're willing to make the first move. Israel is sitting on a hair-trigger. They're just looking for an excuse to attack.

Don't get me wrong; I hold no love for Iran. But I can understand their perspective. This is a culture that used to be known as the Persian Empire. Now they're a 3rd-rate country looking for a way to prove that they're still relevant.

Don't fuck with the little guys; they have nothing to lose, and everything to gain.
