The US and Israel consider Iran to be hostile, since the Iranian people brought down their tyrant, a willing partner for western oil business.

Saudi Arabia backed US in fighting the Russians in Afghanistan, to have an allied/western base next to Iran. The US wanted to fight back the new communist Afghansitan, supported by the Russians.

Turkey would like to join the attack, but this is not in Saudi Arabia's interest.

So Syria is a piece of the puzzle to hit Iran - following the interests of Saudi Arabia, Israel and the US.

Iran has a God that is the same as the Saudi's it's just a small religious spat they are having about where Mecca should be or more to the point how to worship as a true Muslim should.

Iran by the way is aligned with the Assad and his military defense of Syria.

Israel has a God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

The good ole USA has a God, the son of God most high, Jesus, of which the Jewish nation of Israel denies that he is who he says he is.

Russia and China have, for the most part, no God [...]

Seriously, what is this: history and religion for 1st graders?
I checked my browser's title page twice to see if I really landed at subsim and not at some Pokemon forum. With an argumentation niveau like this, I don't even know where to start with counterarguments.
So I'll just say: no, you both failed in doing your homework.
