No signs of unruly aggression? Support for Hizballah, support for Hamas, support for various anti-Coalition forces in Iraq, including direct action, it's leader has threatened to wipe another sovereign state from the face of the Earth while leading a program pursuing military buildup and nuclear weapons. Yup, I guess besides all that type of stuff, we're pretty juvenile to assume they have anything but peaceful coexistance on their minds.

First and foremost, allow me to make haste reference to your misinterpreted account of Ahmadinejad's saying, "wipe Israel off the map." The quote, for whatever reason, was haphazardly mistranslated. The actual words were more along the lines of, "Israel's regime must be wiped off", so to speak. A detailed analysis of the event (with great translating, mind you) can be found through this link:
The Rumor of the Century: Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Never Said "Israel must be wiped off the map"
Secondly, I find your accusations of Iranian interference with Iraqi activities erroneously presumptuous. The only basis for your claims would be the American military reporting of it, which does little to ease the neutral mind. It is evidently recognizable, the likelihood and availability of major bias in such reports, in hopes of orchestrating an artificial illusion to further a private agenda. Iran has constantly denied such attacks, and there are no other verifiable or viable sources to confirm such accusations or responses on behalf of either entity. To truly expose the situation, one would need an abundance of UN troops to investigate those specific circumstances.
Finally, to conclude my response to this section of your statements, I would like to mention the foreign militants who are fighting and killing American soldiers by the day - Saudi Arabians. However, there is no international condemnation or denouncing imposed on the Saudi government because of Saudi militants in Iraq. Why? Easy: the two nations are "buddies", bond together with the fraudulent connection of oil.

Israel's nuclear weapons have been a given for a long time. What has suddenly made Iran feel so threatened as to motivate them to have nukes? Did Israel threaten Iran... ever? You've obviously got it backwards. If you think Israel is the root of the problem here, as oppossed to Iran's agenda of dominating the region, then you're most blissfully ignorant.

Israel's nuclear weapons, to the contrary, have not been known to be in existence or operational for a significant period of time. Additionally, Israel constantly denies the premise of both having and not having nuclear weapons, and refuses further commentary or entertainment of questions regarding such potentially horrific matters. Israel has much more hostility, oppression, and conflict on their hands, not to mention an illegal settlement, which goes even further to show the colossal difference between both nations' genuineness. Finally, because Israel bars mandatory UN inspections, and refuses to sign the compulsory nuclear non-proliferation treaty, rationale would dictate that the microscope should be analyzing Israel in place of Iran, especially when the latter lacks the possession of nuclear weapons in general.
Oh, and I apologize to my late response. Such may be the case for a certain span of time, considering my busy schedule these days.
