'''Iran''', officially the '''Islamic Republic of Iran''' (جمهوری اسلامی ايران) is an Islamic theocratic dictatorship in southwest [[Asia]]. Its capital is [[Tehran]] and its official language is Farsi. A historical name for Iran was "'''Persia'''", which is also the name of the dominant ethnic group. Iran is believed by [[Israel]] and her western allies of pursuing nuclear weapons to gain a strategic advantage in a regional cold war against Sunni-majority Saudi Arabia. Israel also accuses Iran of pursuing nuclear weapons for use against Israel, which is officially "denied" by Iran's government propagating, that the program is to be used for "peaceful" purposes, requiring the enrichment of [[uranium]]. Israel's fear is especially in light of Iranian regime, repeatedly threatening to annihilate Israel. <ref>https://www.mfa.gov.il/mfa/pressroom/2005/pages/iran%2520president%2520calls%2520to%2520annihilate%2520israel%252027-oct-2005.aspx</ref><ref>https://www.cnn.com/2014/11/10/world/meast/iran-annihilate-israel/index.html</ref><ref>https://embassies.gov.il/SAN-FRANCISCO/ABOUTISRAEL/Pages/Iranian-Threat.aspx</ref><ref>https://www.timesofisrael.com/top-iranian-general-vows-to-wipe-out-annihilate-israel/amp/</ref><ref>https://iranintl.com/en/world/khamenei-once-again-insists-annihilation-israel</ref><ref>https://www.timesofisrael.com/irans-doomsday-clock-for-israels-end-halts-amid-power-cuts/amp/</ref><ref>https://m.jpost.com/middle-east/iran-news/israel-wont-heed-any-deal-that-doesnt-halt-iranian-threats-erdan-says-666056/amp</ref> Islsmic Republic's "beef" with Israel is more transparent as being nothing more than pure radical Islamic bigotry.
