Defining State-Sanctioned Terrorism

The supreme self-confidence of the Islamic Republic of Iran in asserting their divine right to proceed unabated with their nuclear program speaks of an administration secure in the knowledge that Allah has consecrated their nuclear determination. Talks between Iran and officials from Britain, China, France, Germany, Russia and the United States have resumed.

With Iran holding the trump card, playing for time. And, as it crows to the world at large, prepared at this juncture to re-enter talks with world powers "with strength and power". What is there to negotiate, under the circumstances? The circumstances being that the full extent of Iran's program advancement is not yet known, nor if the country can avoid divulging it, will they.

Stalling all the while, for more time. In time that has been, time and again gained through on-again, off-again high-level discussions between the Security Council + one, the country has enabled itself to advantage and forward its nuclear agenda, from uranium enrichment programs accelerating far beyond the most pessimistic hypothesis of the West, to the production of uranium yellowcake, making the country's nuclear production cycle complete.

A country that unequivocally declares that its nuclear plans are non-negotiable, and which has never honoured treaties, nor been open with the International Atomic Energy Agency and the United Nations interlocutors, is coyly agreeing to meet with international representatives of countries concerned about its hidden agenda to produce nuclear-tipped bombs, coupled with new, longer-range missiles.

Some mysterious agent or agencies have been involved in attempts to forestall the inevitable, by unleashing a worm into the computer nuclear programming. The Stuxnet malware has realized some success, but its extent remains hypothetical at best. For no one really knows, since the nuclear program is closed to outside inspection.

Iranian nuclear scientists integrally devoted to the advancement of the country's nuclear project have been the subject of assassination attempts and some have succeeded. A "Middle Age and fascist act", according to the Iranian Supreme National Security Council, which most certainly is capable of identifying what qualifies as 'Medieval' and 'fascist'.

Both of which descriptives exemplify the Islamist Shia fanatics that rule the country.

The country which finances terror and trains and arms proxy militias which themselves pose as government administrations in Lebanon and Gaza. Iran knows of terror and how to employ it, both within its borders levelled against its citizens, and through threats to the outside world, boasting of its plans to destroy another country in the Middle East, and rather concerning other Muslim countries with its attainment of nuclear weaponry.

Does it then constitute an act of counter-terror when Iran's nuclear scientists are targeted for assassination, and a co-ordinated secret effort is made to infiltrate its hidden nuclear installations?
