II. Background Information about Iran
A. The United States and Iran have developed a tumultuous relationship with each other over the past half-century; the American government helped the Shah overthrow a commonly elected government in order to maintain desirable instability in the region that would enable the United States to exert power and influence over the entire region.
B. The Shah's exile paved the road for religious fundamentalism to take root deeply in Iran. Religious fundamentalism continues to plague the United States and is one of the reasons why terrorism is rampant.
III. Why it would be unwise to invade Iran now.

2. Military spending is currently too high to be warranted and attention must be paid to domestic matters such as health care and education.
3. Enough lives have been lost and money spent in Iraq; another war would be ridiculous foreign policy now.
4. Furthermore, the United States has minimal support from other nations and would do better to improve its reputation as a bastion of freedom and democracy; because of the invasion of Iraq, the United States is viewed by many in the international community as a bully and an imperialist nation.
