Long before there was Afghanistan, there was Iran. And the radicals have managed to be quite successful there for some time. The current Iranian Pres was part of that original radical movement.
Hez is completely their tool, in part to breed more radicalism.
That is all.

Don't agree. Before Afghanistan, Iran was not sufficiently "radical" for the folks we're talking about. Radical Muslims are happy only with a government like that of the Taliban -- enforcing Shia law at the point of the sword on the streets. Iran is still not to that point, today. It's considered 'secularized' by the Jihadists we are concerned about.
While Iran seems "radical" to us, there is a whole other mindsel among true radical Muslims.
And, BTW, the Israeli attacks are helping forge alliances between Sunni and Shia that will spell even more trouble for the region.
