Default About the Iranian bomb !

wrote in message


let's take a look at Iran, which the US has called the
"most dangerous country".


3. Iran has not invaded or threatened to invade any
other country. At least not in modern times.


I guess the Iran-Iraq war slipped off your radar.

"By June of 1982, a successful Iranian counter-offensive had recovered the
areas previously lost to Iraq. An especially significant battle of this
counter-offensive in the Khuzestan province was the liberation of
Khorramshahr city from the Iraqis on May 24, 1982.
"Most of the fighting for the rest of the war occurred on Iraqi territory,
although some have interpreted the Iraqi withdrawal as a tactical ploy by
the Iraqi military. By fighting just inside Iraq, Saddam Hussein could rally
popular Iraqi patriotism. The Iraqi army could also fight on its own
territory and in well-established defensive positions. The Iranians
continued to employ unsophisticated human wave attacks, while Iraqi soldiers
remained, for the most part, in a defensive posture.
