Thanks, LB. The reason I asked is that shiites are a small percentage of the worldwide muslim population and while everyone knows of Iran's support of West Bank terrorism, it would still seem a stretch to say Iran is the "largest nation state that supports terrorism abroad".

I noticed in the later post that you changed that to "state sponsored terrorism" which I suppose might be closer to the truth.

I opened your Guardian link and it only indicated how the US government viewed Iran. You haven't lost your skepticism for the government have you?

I'm just checking on accuracy here, LB.

Here's a good read on some more state sponsored terrorism...

BTW, did you happen to edit something from your post? I swear there was another comment there, but I don't see it now.

IIRC, CID has pointed out before that when it comes to foreign policy, everyone is really your enemy. He was less succinct than that but I think it made sense at the time. :nod:
