Is the Western world at war with the Islamic Republic of Iran?

Radical Islam

The Iranian regime ships deadly weapons to its militia allies in Iraq, funding the escalation in violence against U.S. troops.

Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has ordered the Iranian Quds forces to offer military support to Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi’s army in its war against "the axis of evil": the U.S., France and the UK.

Khamenei recently sent a letter to America officials, threatening Iranian retaliation against U.S. troops in Iraq should Washington continue pressuring the Syrian leadership.

The Islamic Republic of Iran is utilizing the unrest in the Arab world to weaken the West's position in the Middle East, and divert attention away from its nuclear program. The head of the Iranian regime is not the president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, but rather the Supreme Leader, the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
The Iranian regime, according to its 1989 constitution, is dedicated to jihad to spread the Ayatollah Khomeini’s revolution, to re-establish the Caliphate, and impose Islamic law (sharia) globally. These are precisely the same objectives pursued by terrorist groups like al-Qaeda, HAMAS, and Hezbollah—which may explain why they have all been linked together with Iran in operational relationships for so many decades.
The primary mission of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) is to keep the regime in power. In an especially visible way since the popular uprising after the fraudulent 2009 presidential elections, the IRGC and its subordinate Bassij units have used sheer brutality and terror to suppress the democratic aspirations of the Iranian people.
The Ayatollah Khomeini ordered the IRGC to acquire deliverable nuclear weapons in the mid-1980s. Every Iranian president—including those touted as ‘moderate’—has supported the acquisition of nuclear weapons, but the program has accelerated markedly under the last two presidents: Khatami and Ahmadinejad.
By sheer numbers, Iran is the number two state killer of its own citizens in the world, second only to China, a country with 20 times the size of its population. Per capita, Iran may be the biggest killer.
The Iranian regime has supported the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood in a vocal way ever since the uprising began there in early 2011. The Muslim Brotherhood, a worldwide jihadist organization with a pervasive presence in the U.S. government, intelligence community, and society as a whole, has reached out to the Iranian regime in return and openly expressed interest in forging close ties with it. The Obama administration recently announced that it is expanding its long-standing ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.
Current president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad believes that the Shi’a messianic figure (the Mahdi, or Twelfth Imam), who allegedly disappeared down a well 1,000 years ago—is helping guide his government and manage world affairs. He has publicly expressed his belief that apocalyptic violence can hasten the return of this figure.
In spite of sanctions, Iran is far from isolated. It is actively involved with many countries, diplomatically and economically, buying influence at a growing pace. This includes the viscerally anti-American regime of Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez and a growing list of other countries in America’s backyard of South and Central America. Iran also has been developing relations with countries like Eritrea, Sudan, Algeria, Afghanistan, Turkey, Lebanon, Syria, Qatar, and recently Israel’s neighbor Jordan.
“Iran has methodically cultivated a network of sponsored terrorist surrogates capable of conducting effective plausibly deniable attacks against Israel and the United States.” This includes a network of terror proxies, such as Hezbollah, which has an extensive presence across Latin America, especially in Venezuela, and also in Mexico. Hezbollah operates at least a dozen cells within the U.S. as well.
The Havlish case (Havlish et al vs Osama bin Laden, Iran, et al.), filed in New York in May 2011, presented compelling evidence that the Iranian regime provided direct and material assistance to al-Qaeda for the 9/11 attacks.
