Iran Is Plotting to Attack Americans — in America
A common argument in the US — especially among the political left and the isolationist-leaning right — is that Iran doesn’t really threaten America. Sure, the argument goes, Iran’s regime does nasty things to its own people and to others across the Middle East, but it poses no threat to the American homeland. Iran is merely a regional problem and should therefore be ranked much lower on the list of Washington’s strategic priorities.
