'Rational' and 'personal gain' are kind of relative to your worldview. The people running Iran believe that if they launch a missile into Tel Aviv, the worst thing that can happen is they get sent to paradise for eternity and Allah is waiting to give them a high-five for wiping Israel off the map. Is it still 'irrational' for them to do so?

Do you have a cite proving this claim?


I'm not sure what part of what I said is even debatable. Do you not think they believe God supports their mission to destroy Israel?


You are watching Fox too much.


Ahmadinejad (Iranian president): “Is there a craft more beautiful... than the craft of giving yourself to martyrdom and becoming holy?...”

"What is important is that they have shown the way to martyrdom which we must follow."

So what you are saying is that US leaders believe that they are on a holy mission to eradicate Evil from the world?

And that some opposition leaders believe that shooting a selected list of politicians who they disagree with is a good thing for US democracy?

So if western politicians really mean what they say then I believe that same goes for Iranian politicians.

Nigga please!
