Persian, you make some good arguments. Here is where you are wrong. The Iranian army is not battle tested. A Military can aquire all the state of the art weapons it can get. If it doesnt know how to deploy them, use them, take advantage of today's highly manouver warfare, then its useless. A prime example Egypt and Syria in 1967 and 1973 Wars against Israel. Despite being on same qualitiative and having the edge qualititvely, they lost and lost badly. If we look at the Iraq-Iran War, Iran suffered heavy casualites. Also the equipment that Iran is making is not tested against the modern forces around the world. Iran will not have a war wit Pakistan or any of its neighbours. Its only confrontation will come from Nato Forces led by USA if Iran continues on the path of making nuclear weapons. And Iran's army is no match for that. So no matter what weapons you make, what planes, tanks you can make. Your war is gonna be with USA and Nato and no military on earth can defeat them. If I were Khatami or the Ayatollas, I would stop making Nuclear Weapons. Nuclear weapons will get you nothing but sanctions and diplomatic isolation throughout the world. Look at North Korea. Israel possess 300-400 Nuclear Weapons. It also has a very strong Arrow II defense Shield. If you launch a nuclear attack on Israel. Israel and NATO will destroy Iran. Iran should make conventional weapons, give up its nuclear ambitions. Europe will pressure USA to restore diplomatic ties between USA and Iran. Iran's economy will grow. etc etc etc. Dont sacrifice your country for Palestine. Palestine is a mess created by the Arabs when the invaded Israel in 1948. If they have left Israel alone when it was created, 50% of all British Mandate of Palestine would be a Palestinian State, instead of today being only 22% if Israel fully withdraws from West Bank and Gaza Strip.
