I honestly do not even understand why "we" even have a dispute with Iran, outside of butthurt over Jimmy Carters cowardice in letting our friend the shah fall.

They do not harm America honestly. Sure they bruise our ego with stupid diplomatic crap, but we are America, and they still stone people to death.
