I became educated on this matter by Iranian friends who fled.
Out of respect for these guys, they and most of Iran are not anything comparable to Al qaida, terrorist, desperate angered people. But in the middle East anyone (Typically fanatics (lot's of em) with another agenda) who says "support Palestine, hate America," does draw immediate support from people who don't know any better and anyone who has a heart for the Palestinians. I didn't know much about all this, but these guys love America and all that, so I wouldn't want them to be thrown into the category of "crazy Arabs", but they're from an objective point of view, which reminds me that I'm an admittedly Dumb American.
by the way, Iranians are persian not arab.
