Re: Al-Qaeda Threatens Los Angeles, Melbourne
Iran is pretty much the most progressive country in the region. The government in Iran has to be concerned with creating too much change in too short of a timespan.
Also, it's not always fair for the United States to sit back and point fingers at countries half way around the world for not taking terrorists out in their home countries. Many Middle Eastern countries do not have the infrastructure or reliable troops to take the terrorists on, and if they did, they would invite terrorist retaliation.
The only effective way at stopping the terrorists is to cripple their recruiting. Unfortunately, there is a lot of resentment towards Western nations, and the US in particular. It's even more difficult to stop the violence over there considering they've been killing each other for thousands of years, and the only time they stop fighting amongst themselves is to fight somebody else.
