LMAO You mean the organizations that Israel created? Talk about low information. Keep posting it's good for laughs.
So which is it, countries should fear Iran or Irans army is a joke? Keep talking out of both sides of your mouth.
You mean when Iraq attacked Iran?
Again Iran hasn't attacked any country in over 200 years. Stop with the fear mongering the sky isn't falling chicken little.
"Hezbollah was conceived by Muslim clerics and funded by Iran primarily to harass the Israeli occupation.[4] Its leaders were followers of Ayatollah Khomeini, and its forces were trained and organized by a contingent of 1,500 Revolutionary Guards that arrived from Iran with permission from the Syrian government,[21] which was in occupation of Lebanon at the time."
I see facts are meaningless to the low information crowd. Nothing like a good laugh in the morning to start the day!
Iran couldn't win a war against anyone, but their belligerence towards their neighbors and Israel along with their nuclear ambitions cannot be ignored.
Keep parroting the 200 year argument. This is what people do when they don't have critical thinking skills.
Maybe when Israel chants death to Iran on a weekly basis and pays terrorist elements to attack and wage war on Iran, your argument will actually make sense.
Ok for Israel to defend themselves but not for Iran. The hypocrisy goes right over your head.
Good ole Israel, the peaceful country right? We have no business forcing either country to bow to our will.
Israeli leaders planned to attack military targets in Iran in recent years, but they were held back due to the opinions of other government and military leaders, according to an audio recording leaked to an Israeli television broadcaster.
One planned strike was canned after scheduling conflicts with a joint military exercise with the United States got in the way, according to the audio. The recording with former Defense Minister Ehud Barak was leaked to Israel's Channel 2. It detailed three strikes Barak had allegedly planned with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in 2010, 2011 and 2012 respectively. CNN has translated the audio, which is in Hebrew. Barak, who also previously served as prime minister, acknowledged to CNN on Saturday that the recording is authentic, but declined to comment further.

Iran plans an attack against Israel every day. you were saying?
Just so everyone is clear here... the country where folks gather every Friday to chant 'Death to Israel!' want Israel to give up their nuclear weapons because they feel threatened by them. The country of 80 million people feels threatened by the country of 8 million. So the bigger country, which outwardly works for the destruction of the smaller one through military sponsorship of Israel's enemies on their borders and in the Palestinian territories, wants to see the smaller country they despise have their best defense taken away. Uh... of course they do.
How about this: stop the 35 year rhetoric calling for said country's annihilation. Enter into actual diplomatic relations with said country. Have your country's leader stop posting 14-point Twitter presentations about how to eliminate said country. Then, maybe then, we can talk about said smaller country's dismissal of the nuclear weapons that 'scare' the country 10 times its' size that calls for Israel's destruction on a weekly basis.
If the Iranians were just to leave Israel alone and concentrate on improving the lives of their own people, they would prosper. Iran does not share a common border with Israel and there are no natural resources over which they have a dispute. Some say that they are concerned about the Palestinians, but Iran murders its own people whenever they protest the government, so it seems unlikely that the Iranians care for the plight of anybody. There is no reason for them to be causing trouble.

You haven't presented facts just made up tabloid nonsense which the chicken littles love to use since they can't think for themselves.
Israel’s continuing occupation of the West Bank and Gaza, and parts of Lebanon and Syria, contributed to the formation of nationalist groups willing to sacrifice themselves in the name of Islam.
Israel for years tolerated and, in some cases, encouraged them as a counterweight to the secular nationalists of the Palestine Liberation Organization and its dominant faction, Yasser Arafat's Fatah. Israel cooperated with a crippled, half-blind cleric named Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, even as he was laying the foundations for what would become Hamas. Sheikh Yassin continues to inspire militants today; during the recent war in Gaza, Hamas fighters confronted Israeli troops with "Yassins," primitive rocket-propelled grenades named in honor of the cleric.
And beginning in 1967 through the late 1980s, Israel helped the Muslim Brotherhood establish itself in the occupied territories. It assisted Ahmed Yassin, the leader of the Brotherhood, in creating Hamas, betting that its Islamist character would weaken the PLO.
When you use force and occupy the people who you do it too don't like it. Simple enough for even YOU to understand. At least I hope. Keep posting it's good for laughs.

Agreed. Again which is it, they are a threat or they are not?
It's none of our business and quit ignoring the FACT that Israel has threatened Iran.

Saying you will defend yourself isn't causing trouble. You're seeing way too much into it.
Iran plans an attack against Israel every day. you were saying?
Still waiting for you to show proof of that.

So just to be clear, a country that hasn't attacked another country in over 200 years and has been threatened by the Israelis wants to defend itself and you think they shouldn't?

so if wikipidea is a tabloid, why are you quoting from it and trying to make an argument from its content? it's not a secret that hezballs is an Iranian creation and continues to be, with their one and only goal of crushing Israel. You can take that 200 yr theory and put in a tin foil hat box with the Jews really did 9/11 theory.
Do you know the history of the Lebanon '82 war? or are you just parroting more talking points from a "tabloid"? you can't even come up with a rational argument on your own.
