I'm not really too sure. You see, their
President preaches messages of hate.
Not the Ayatollah. The President can't launch a military campaign, the Ayatollah can. So although he may talk big, he can't do anything. The Ayatollah, Ali Khamenei, isn't running around preaching messages of hate. He's not a massive religious extremist who stones anyone who does anything vaguely against the Qu'ran and, as I've mentioned before, Iran on the whole is a very progressively minded country.
Not that it's entirely relevant. I hate George Bush but I'm not going to pick up a gun and start taking pot shots at him. And although Nuclear is a very scary word, there is a
massive amount that has to be done to turn a nuclear power station into a nuclear missile. Them building a power station does not make them missile capable.
