Why Doesn't Iran have no major Terrorist threats? (BBC Source)

[Mo12]

I was reading a BBC article, showing all the 11 Terrorists group in Muslims nations.

However I was surprised none are operating in Iran?

How do Iran manage this, dispute the negative criticism they receive from Western media and when countries around them are affected as well?

Here is the picture in the BBC article:

Mainly because they export it all, and end up with nothing to consume at home.

I think its more to the fact Iran having a strong leader.

Just like Saddam Hussein was for Iraq when he was leader, he kept the nation under control from terrorists.

The reason may be is that they are good working democracy which have good justice system.

The population is on average quite young (~25) and well educated, so there's really no ideological foundation for terrorism, although many disagree with the government and its policies.

Here is the picture in the BBC article:

Because militant groups in Iran either a) work for the state to suppress internal dissent, or b) are not international in scope but are focussed entirely on attacking the regime.

The map you posted shows groups that either pose a threat or have threatened cross-border or cross-regional attacks and target foreign (namely Western) interests in those countries aswell as the state itself. No such threat exists from Iran.

Also, militant groups that target Iran are cross-border in nature and do not control territory inside the country, unlike in all those other places. The MEK (MKO) is based mainly in Western Europe and North America with a small refugee camp in Iraq and allegedly infiltrates Iran via Azerbaijan Rp (this has not been proven) PJAK is based in Iraqi Kurdistan and Jeash al-Adl (previously Jondallah) and Ansar al-Furqan (previously Harakat al-Ansar) are based in Pakistan. These are the only major terrorist groups that have successfully penetrated Iran within recent years. The Balouchi groups are the only Islamist ones, the others are secular or ethnic.

Made with Twitter & FB by MOSSAD/CIA terrorists
Neda was shot by a MOSSAD in the heart for more blood for the cameras
