2005 Iran Became Most Dangerous Nation

First, Iran’s continuing pursuit of nuclear weapons despite the warnings of the international community is one factor that has elevated it to the title of “most dangerous.” Iran already has Shahab 5 Missiles that are capable of delivering nuclear warheads to Israel and many places in Europe. Not to mention US troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.

According to a Claremont Institute report, it has a range of 2,500 miles. The missile is believed to be based on the North Korean Taep’o-dong 2. It is an Intermediate Range Ballistic Missile (IRBM) that can carry a large single nuclear or biological warhead.

Most alarming to the US military is that this missile is a stepping-stone to the development of ICBMs capable of hitting the US mainland.

A Middle East Newsline dated May 20, 2004 reported, “U.S. intelligence officials believe that Iran could begin testing components of an intercontinental ballistic missile in 2005, likely from the Shahab missile family.”

This is probably why President George Bush recently announced that “it is completely unacceptable for Iran to develop nuclear weapons.” It also explains the December 31st Jerusalem Post report that the US began coordinating with NATO its plans for a possible military strike against Iran. The report spoke of an air attack on Iranian nuclear facilities.

Second, Iran elected a new president who is fanatically driven by the most extreme teachings of the Shiite Muslim faith that was introduced by the Ayatollah Khomeini. His name is Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. He is an avid Anti-Semite who publicly declared that “the Nazis Holocaust is a myth created by the Jews to get international sympathy for establishing the State of Israel.”

Ahmadinejad announced, “Israel is a cancer that must be wiped off the map.” With the prospect of soon acquiring nuclear-tipped missiles, this elevated him to be a major world threat. You may think that he wouldn’t be insane enough to use nuclear weapons. Don’t count on it.

Some of the Iranian Mullahs recently declared that Muslims would survive and win a nuclear exchange. One of the basic tenets of the Shiite faith is the glorification of martyrdom for Allah. In their thinking, it would be acceptable for several million Iranians to be ‘martyred’ in exchange for ‘cleansing Muslim lands of Jews and infidels.’ Two nuclear warheads hitting Israel would do in a blinding flash what took Hitler six years to accomplish – the elimination of six million Jews. To the Shiite extremist, the consequences that follow would be an acceptable sacrifice. They have actually discussed these things.

If you doubt their intention, just consider the banners draped on the Shahab missiles that are paraded periodically through the streets of Tehran. The crowds shout approval as the banners go by. They read, “We will wipe Israel off the map.” This indicates that the general population agrees with the purpose of the missiles.

Third, President Ahmadinejad is a devout believer in the apocalyptic Muslim prophecies about the soon coming of the ‘Mahdi’ (Muslim Messiah) known as the Twelfth Imam. They believe his coming will be accompanied with a world apocalypse in which Muslim rule and justice will be established on earth.

One of the first acts Ahmadinejad did as President was to donate $17 million of state money for the beautification of the Jamkaran Mosque that is about 80 miles south of Tehran. Devout Shiites believe that the ‘Twelfth Imam’ will first appear at this mosque.

President Ahmadinejad declared last month that “the main mission of the Islamic Revolution is to pave the way for the reappearance of the Twelfth Imam.”

Iranian journalist Hossein Bastani reported “Ahmadinejad saying in official meetings that the ‘hidden Imam’ will reappear in two years.”

Columnist Charles Krauthammer best summarized the significance of all this in his report entitled, In Iran, Arming for Armageddon. He surmised, “So a Holocaust-denying, virulently anti-Semitic, aspiring genocidist, on the verge of acquiring weapons of the apocalypse, believes that the end is not only near but nearer than the next American presidential election … This kind of man would have, to put it gently, less inhibition about starting Armageddon than a normal person. Indeed, with millennial bliss pending, he would have positive incentive to, as they say in Jewish eschatology, hasten the end.”

I am thankful to know from Bible prophecy that this restored State of Israel cannot be destroyed, though it will go through some terrible trials. So it is going to be fascinating to see what God does to stop this clear and immanent threat to Israel’s existence.

The Israeli Air Force has acquired some very specially designed versions of the F-16 fighter known as the F-16i. It has conformal fuel tanks mounted on the sides of the fuselage that extends its range well within Iran’s borders. It also has a large dorsal fin extending from the cockpit to the rudder that houses the most advanced defensive and targeting electronics on any aircraft. It has a more powerful engine and carries a crew of pilot and electronics operator. Israel did not help design and build this plane for normal operation. It is clearly the “Iranian special.” It is believed that Israel has already developed and practiced an attack plan to take out Iran’s scattered nuclear facilities.

And what will be the aftermath of an Israeli attack that kills thousands of Iranians, but also many Russian scientists who live at these nuclear facilities? Well let’s just say we are really getting close to Christ’s return for the Church.

And then what happens next? I am not playing dumb, I really am not well read on politics and current world events. I rely on others to tell me when I'm supposed to get worried.

I didn't realize we were the United States of Israel, kaka100. Whatever the Iranian president thinks of Israel or Sharon shouldn't be used to throw ourselves into another Iraq/Vietnam style predicament. Right now our hands are tied and bombing bases in Iran will only create even more hostility in Iraq and will only hurt things for the United States in the future.

Yes, thanks for letting me know that. The flag on his avator didn't make it obvious. When he said "we" do you really think he meant Israel all by herself?

likely in terms of likelihood as well as necessity. The man is a verifiable psycho.

Yes, but you can't just start bombing things because of what a leader says about your country or president. If it were so Bush would have bombed all of Europe long ago. Besides, if Israel bombed Iran then the United States (and of course Israel) will have to pay for it in the long run.
