It's in the article claiming that Iran has been at war with Israel since 1979. It makes the article seem less well researched.

What about the more expensive wars? The War On Poverty; The War On Drugs; The War On Cancer, etc.

Iran and Israel are not allies. It is the nature of these Middle Eastern states to have alliances with nations that are also their bitter enemies. Your point is understandable but flawed.

Its got some errors in it. One is the false belief that Israel is America's puppet, in the arab world, the belief is the other way around. Another thing, is that North Korea does claim to have Nukes, and wants to make more. As for the Kurds and Shia's being pro-american or not hostile. The kurds, he's right on, but the Shia's, alot of, but not most, want America to leave, so they can take over the country and alot of them are itching for a Iranian style government. Not every attacker has been a Sunni.

On the Chechens, he's wrong, yes there are alot of islamic radicals fighting there, but ironically, most Chechens are pretty secular, violent, but secular, but they will take help from whereever they can get it. They're your basic separitist. Even in some muslim country's, you have separatists who want to break away. Its kind of funny, Mohammad always wanted one united islamic empire.
