Almost all of the jihad and terrorism in the past 3 decades is Sunnite. Salafist, Whabbist, etc. Shites and Hezbollah have been involved in as much international terrorism in the last 3 decades as Basque separatists, Tamil Tigers, or the IRA. I know the pro-Israel rhetoric would make the average Fox News viewer think they are the worst terrorist group in the world. It’s about as accurate as saying Steve Bannon is as bad as Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. And if your a HuffPo and MSM devotee you’ll accept the latter ludicrous comparison, even if only emotionally. Same with the former if you’re a Fox News/neocon true believer.

So those Israeli incursions into Lebanon to stop Hezbollah fighters crossing into Israel and all the Hezbollah rockets launched on northern Israel are just made up bu Fox news?

All those Al-Quds and IRG units moving toward the Golan are just figments of deranged Israelis planted by Fox News?

You do not seems to me understand the chess mentality of the Mad Persian Mullahs - they will make real terror, more than all the Sunni efforts combined, when the time and place is right - just after they make operational their ICBMs and fit them with nuclear warheads.

“largest state sponsor of terrorism”

Please read every word including State & Sponsor. That description is designated by our U.S. gov’t. It’s not something that Fox or Huffpost made up.
It doesn’t matter which sect or country a terrorist comes from, if their money, training, support, sponsorship is from the very leadership (state) of Iran. The IRI isn’t very discriminating when it comes to terrorism, it has its tentacles all over the globe.

Yes, a lot of terrorists have been Saudi & Jordanian (aided by Iran, btw), but the essential leadership of the country’s gov’t (the state) of Saudi Arabia & Jordan doesn’t train, support, sponsor terrorism worldwide. Yes, some extended members of the royal family have had their fingers in that pie, but that doesn’t make it state sponsored.

You probably aren’t aware, that the gov’t of Iran sponsors/hosts a terrorism conference/festival/seminar where terrorist leadership from all over the world are invited to meet, plan, train, etc. The name of the conference is translated as, “Ten days of dawn”.

This is what is meant by “biggest state sponsor of terrorism”
