Orchestrate terrorist attacks in the Middle East and the West.

Terrorist attacks orchestrated by Iran could wreak havoc throughout the Middle East and extend to the West.

The London-based thinktank the Legatum Institute, in a report published on Jan 16, 2011, warns that a military strike against Iran could result in retaliation. "In any strike, Iran would likely retaliate against US soldiers and assets in Afghanistan and Iraq, and might activate sleeper cells to launch al-Qaida-like attacks against the US homeland and in Europe."
