Nope. The US started this war in 1953 but Iran finally won it in 1979. Today's situation is proof of that win.

  ...the intentions of Iran to obtain nuclear weapons go back many years. During a January 1987 speech to Iran's nuclear scientific com-munity in Tehran, Iran's then-president Ali Khamenei (who later be-came Iran's Supreme Leader, the Ayatollah Khamenei, after the death of the Ayatollah Khomeini) made a direct link between Iran's nuclear program and Iran's national security and stressed the urgency of going nuclear as rapidly as possible. "Regarding atomic energy, we need it now," Khamenei said. "Our nation has always been threatened from outside. The least we can do to face this danger is let our enemies know that we can defend our-selves. Therefore, every step you take here is in defense of your coun-try and your evolution. With this in mind, you should work hard and at great speed."' In an October 6, 1988, address to the Islamic Revolutionary Guards, Ali Akbar Hashemi-Rafsanjani made the country's nuclear intentions even more clear. 'We should fully equip ourselves both in the offensive and defensive use of chemical, bacteriological, and radiological weap-ons. From now on, you should make use of the opportunity and per-form this task."
  In 1989, Rafsanjani was elected president of Iran, where he served until 1997. Lest there be any doubt, Rafsanjani was even more provocative in the wake of the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington. On December 14, 2001, the Iran Press Service ran a story entitled "Rafsanjani Says Muslims Should Use Nuclear Weapon against Israel."
  
  According to the story, Rafsanjani asserted that a nuclear attack would "annihilate Israel," while costing Iran "damages only."

  An even more ominous threat was uttered on January 31, 2002, by Ahmadinejad's superior, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who called for continued terrorism against the "cancerous tumor of Zionism .. .," a biological metaphor often used by political leaders to express genocidal intent. Khamenei's threat was by far the most serious. He, not Ahmadinejad, has ultimate authority over any Iranian decision to use weapons of mass destruction.

I was passing through Iran at the end of 1979. The US/UK/Shah were indeed the "Big Satan". You are free to call the leaders of the Islamic Revolution fascists if you want but let me tell you that replacing the "Big Satan" was an improvement if for no other reason Iran was finally ruler of its own population. You are also free to criticize the Islamic Revolution for its weak, Democratic principles but they are not responsible for destroying Iran's Democracy ...... the "Big Satan" did in 1953. Consider all of that (plus the illegal invasion of Irak on lies of DMDs) and ask youself why Iran should be willing to trust the West?

 

[GLASNOST]

What was so good about 1979 Jihad revolution

You know nothing about history and why the Islamic Revolution was a good thing?

you cheer on?

"Cheer on"?

 

[Godboy]

Maybe they currently arent, but just because they paused, doesnt mean they wont keep inching towards it. Its simply a matter of time. Is it 1 year? Is it 10 years? Is it 50 years? At some point they WILL pull it off, unless we completely dismantle their program and not allow nuclear reactors in their nation. Thats just a fact.

 

[Ringo]

Maybe they currently arent, but just because they paused, doesnt mean they wont keep inching towards it. Its simply a matter of time.

I've been hearing this talk, “Iran is a few years away from nuclear weapons!” for about 30 years now. But, Iran doesn't need those weapons.
First of all, the fatwa of Iran's supreme leader forbids Iran to have them. For starters.
In the second place, the only enemy Iran has in the Middle East is Israel. Bombing Israel with nuclear weapons is unacceptable for Iran on religious grounds - too many religious places are sacred to Islam.
Besides, there are many Palestinians and other people living in Israel whom Iran does not consider enemies. The enemy for Iran is Zionism, which they consider a terrorist organization. And who, by the way, possessing essentially illegally nuclear weapons, would not hesitate to use them against Iran. Why illegal? Why, unlike other states, is Israel not allowing any commissions to verify its nuclear arsenal?
That's it in a nutshell.

I've been hearing this talk, “Iran is a few years away from nuclear weapons!” for about 30 years now.

My mistake. The news of “crazy ayatollahs ready to get nuclear weapons within days” was first reported 41 years ago, in 1984.
