almost inevitable that terrorist bombings will come to Iran
since khomeini came to power, Iran's government has conducted and financed and blessed terrorist bombings in Lebanon, In South America and elsewhere
Iran is at risk of terrorist attacks regardless of political leadership, due to its geographical location and multiethnic makeup. Every country in the region is at risk.
