How many nations headed by dictators has it supported and defended in its use of chemical weapons compared to the US?
I put the tally at 0 to maybe a dozen, 0 to five or so, $ to $$$$$$$$$$$$, 0 to 1.
So on the scale of peace loving, Iran is angelic compared to the warmonger Christian-Baptist-Evangelical-Jewish-Mormon USA.

If Iran had the capabilities and the means that the US does, the world would be a far darker place. The fact that the US needs to show it's power now and again in order to keep stoneage cultures filled with radical religious zealots in check is no surprise.
Backing the lesser of evil men vying for power in these backwards countries comes as no surprise either.
Calling Iran peace loving is a joke, but I'm not laughing!
....and if the Shah of Iran wasn't such an asshole, he'd still be in power today.
