Regional Superpower? Such term doesnt exist.
it does exist. iran is called a regional superpower by a ex-CIA officer Robert Baer.
If you want to be a regional power you need much more then simply controlling some terrorist organisations
yes. we control your energy. thats why almost 50% of your gas is IRANIAN gas. if stop importing that gas, you country will fall apart.
See the result when you try to gross Turkeys politicial roadmap and its national interest, Entire Syria has become a battle ground with FSA winning.
haha, you want to correlate that civil war with turkey? that war wasnt started by turkey, and you guys are not the main parties. iran, qatar, us, ksa are. and fsa is not winning. its a stalemate, and iran has managed to counter USA, KSA, QATAR, TURKEY and other terrorist supporters.
Your influance is temporarly and almost non-existend, It all about sending some weapons to some terrorist and thats what you call influance.
haha, you know nothing. we control iraq, lebanon, gaza, armenia, northern and western afghanistan, shia population in bahrein, rebels in yemen, etc.
We bound and force them to submit to our will like any other nation trough other means like Economy and trading, Why do you think Iraqi KRG is having Great relations with Turkey, Becuase they are almost totally dependent on us trough playing smart after the invasion of Iraq,
funny. the only reason why maliki didn't attacked KRG is because iran intervened. the kurds, like talabani, are still listening to iran. irans trade with krg is great too.
That will become of Syria, No Turning back now, Even if Assad wins, He will be unable to Trade with the most advanced nation in the region and its neighbour Turkey. Iran cant do crap beside some barking...
who cares? the only thing iran wants is too have a supply line too hezbollah, and keep terrorist out of syria. the last has failed, but at least they are not controlling syria entirely.
Thats the reason why we already won, Even if he wins, he would be economicly doomed, if he loses, Trade will be booming and wealth will come to Syria. Thats what you call a fact, You already lost...
you guys have won? of iran tomorrow decides to stop importing gas to your country, pressure the kurds to withdraw their relations with turkey, or give maliki the go to attack krg, your country would fall apart. that is what we call real POWER.
