IMO Iran is like the Kanye West of international politics. They act really childish just to get their name out because otherwise there isnt anything that makes them stand out from the other nations surrounding them.

This whole event parallels a few years ago when Russia placed a flag underneath the north pole in efforts to claim the land there for oil drilling, despite the fact that it is land claimed by Russia, China, Japan, and Canada IIRC. Big cry for attention, thats all.
I dont believe in World Peace, I honestly dont care what happens overseases aslong as it does not affect the U.S. in a negative way. The West is safer when the Middle east is having internal conflict. Also it would result in opec members competing with each other, which means lower energy and food cost for millons in the world.
