Iran has not attacked the United States, with two exceptions. It stormed the US embassy in 1979 and took the US delegation hostage for 444 days. Iran also attacked the US covert operatives sent into Iranian airspace to retrieve the hostages since the US craft were in violation of Iranian airspace regulations.

Does Iran want a nuclear war?
It is unknown at this point whether Iran does or doesn't have nuclear weapons at its disposal. Iran is a big issue for watchdogs these days. It is a topic of extreme caution. If they ever do get to posses them, the weapons have to be transported in order to launch them and it is a process. The location of Iran makes this process a very complicated one to attack on the main us but certain American targets in other places of the world could be threaten. Right now the swine flu should be more worry some that Iran launchiung a nuclear attack on the US but is something to keep an eye for. -It is more likely that Iran will sell supplies for making nuclear weapons than that they will use them any time soon.

How can Iran and the US develop a cordial relationship of cultural exchange and mutual understanding?
For Iran to remove the cloud of suspected terrorism would be a first step. For Iran to offer and pay reparations for the attack on our Embassy and the taking of hostages would be a second step. For Iran to step away from oppressive Islamic beliefs and actually support some realistic freedoms and human rights would be a third step. IRAN RULES! LOL
