Iran may not be an Arab country (neither is Libya or Tunisia for that matter) but they are Arabized through Islam and further have had their share of Arab Spring uprisings. Iran isn't the only country I think that Byron was referring too, Israel has a lot of enemies, but the reality is she is stronger then just about all of them put together. ONLY Iran can compete with Israel, and the only reason that neither Iran or Israel have gone to war is their respective international allies and trade networks wouldn't tolerate such. |
Actually geography is a far more important reason. You should try looking at a map sometime, it can be very instructive.
