Iran: Satellite launch is 'source of pride'

We call Iranians evil and terrorists and how dare they launch satellites and want Nuclear Energy or progress their Country at all. Even if they do want nuclear weapons its not for us, like some would want you to believe. A lot of people forget about their nuclear armed neighbor who is constantly threatening them with attacks, Israel. These people that try and tell us Iran wants nuclear weapons to use on us are really scared of Israel losing its power in the middle east owning the only nuclear arsenal in the region.

Think about it Israel does what it wants because it has nukes and our backing. If another Country who were not that friendly with us or loved Israel like we do were to get nuclear weapons as well then they lose their power to do what they want. They would have to deal with the issue diplomatically instead of bombing or ignoring the issue as they have been doing. Now for one Iran would not use a nuclear weapon on Israel, as much as some in Iran might not like them they are not going to launch a nuke in their backyard. But with one they think, because of the power and respect we have given other nuclear armed countries, that they will be involved in what goes on in the world. They will get on the counsels, see anyone that follows history knows Iranians or Persians are very proud people.

Their country is the cradle of civilization and has been important in the world for thousands of years. In the last hundred or two hundred years their roles have been minimized in the world and we had them shut out when they overthrew our shah that we uh installed for them. The british and US made the majority of the money off their oil for many years stunting their countries growth throwing them further from influence in the world. Well they overthrew our shah and have taken control of their oil and have started to come back and they want to be relevant in the world again. But we have prevented this because of hard feelings and other things. They see that nuclear armed countries are the ones that have influence in the world and not only that but your neighbor is stealing other countries lands and threatening you and other countries like you. They have nuclear weapons and because of it no will challenge them. So they figure to not let their neighbors get too much control and keep mistreating your friends and to get influence in the world that maybe they need nuclear weapons.

Bottom line they just want to be acknowledged be on a counsel not worry about Israel attacking them or their Arab neighbors. Our role in this is huge and its been despicable. Our policies towards Iran have caused far right wing politicians,like Bush, in their country to win elections. Who then say things that make it worse and help the case of those seeking to keep Israel the sole nuclear power in the middle east. You can't really invade a nuclear armed country to take their oil and you can't bully them for better deals on oil either. Its all about control of resources and power and the Iranians are being made to look evil because of it. Yeah they have people in office right now that say fucked up shit, but we have been acting as bad as they say we do towards them.

If we worked with them and had contact we would show the Iranian people that their right wing people are wrong and they will be voted out for people more open to deal with us. Its that fucking simple. We could so easily make the Iranian president look like a hack just by being humanitarians. Calling them axis of evil and terrorists does get positive attention from the people. Iran does not want to bomb us or bomb Israel. They want to be relevant in the world. Unfortunately we ( the US ) has helped create a world where only the nuclear armed have true influence. If you understand that you might understand why Iran might want one. This will continue to happen with many other countries until all countries sign a moratorium and disarm all nuclear weapons. It HAS to be done or we seal our own fates.

Iran does not want to kill you, they may want to dance with you but they do not want to kill you and the same way Bush did not speak for all of America the Iranian President does not speak for all his people, he actually isn't really in charge of the Country. If we want to stop Iran from wanting nukes, then we need to make Israel disarm and reap the seeds they have sown. Which would be giving up all the land they grabbed from Palestine, Syria, Lebanon and actually working together with its neighbors instead of attacking or ignoring and hiding behind us or their nuclear arsenal. Wow that's a lot of words... I'm sure I got off topic all over the place. I hope you were able to understand my ranting. When it flows it flows....
