Lets break this down a bit, first is Iran a threat to anyone or is it the one being under threat?
The last offensive war the Iranians launched was against the Ottomans in the 1800s.
After that they've had
- Democratically elected governments toppled by CIA and British plots
- Attacked by a western sponsored crazy dictator, Saddam Hussein in the longest war of the 20th century
- Been embargoed and isolated by the US and its allies
- Had both neighboring countries invaded by the US
- Now having a terror campaign waged against them by US and Israel and have terrorist groups attacking their cities, murdering public officials and citizens that are funded by them.
- Being threatened with being bombed over a nuclear programme that no-one has proved to even be in pursuit of weapons.
And Iran is the threatening ones?
And who is the one being "threatened by them?"
- Israel who wages a war at least twice a decade?
- Israel who is running the longest occupation in modern history?
- Israel that possesses ICBMs and over 200 nuclear warheads?
- Tyrants that the US sponsors for economic interests and to maintain a military presence at their doorstep ?

Very cute assertions, do you have any evidence to back up your claims?
The last 20 years of world history show the US is one of the biggest threats in the world
Yep, we're a real threat to serbians who want to ethnic cleanse their part of europe. We're a threat to al queda. We were a threat to saddam. We were a threat to the soviet union. We were a threat to kadaffi. Did I forget anyone?
Not going to war against Iran would be a threat against keeping the military industrial complex prosperous.
