I think that the current state of affairs over Iran closely resembles the state of Germany at the start of WWII. The Iranian leader is all against Israel and the Jews, and I believe him very capable of committing genocide, if he were able to. He is not stable and he continually holds rallies to gain the support of his people, much like Hitler did and to the same effect.

That brings me to the UN. Look at the League of Nations, before WWII they gave in to Germany to prevent a war and countries took up the policy of appeasement. If I remember correctly, this didn't stop the war, it helped Germany get started and gave them the confidence they needed to continue with their plans. Now the UN doesn't wanted a war in Iran and are letting Iran proceed with their nuclear program, again, the use of appeasement. The League of Nations failed for a reason and it is the same reason the UN has become useless.

I believe if the world lets Iran continue with this, they will gain the confidence to attack and carry out their plans. If the allied nations had stepped in when Hitler started up, I believe that WWII could have been much shorter and not had as many casualties. I believe the same thing when it comes to Iran, they are headed down a dangerous path and I believe that unless someone intervenes, it will escalate out of control.

Iran is also currently supplying weapons to both Afghanistan and Iraq to support the insurgents. The Taliban and Al-Qaeda are never going to be destroyed as long as operations continue only in Iraq and Afghanistan. They have no bases of operation in Iraq and Afghanistan and are always coming and going from within neighbouring countries where they are hidden and safe. They are being supplied with everything they need to continue their war from these countries. As long as these factions have support from their neighbours they will never be exhausted of supplies or men. I don't think it will ever be possible to fully defeat these factions. I'm not sure where I was going with this, so I'll leave it as it is.

I believe that Iran must be stopped, they are a threat.
