How long until Iran goes to war with Iraq for the 100th time?
Why would Iran want to go to war with Iraq? Iraq has a moderately pro-Iran Shiite regime in place, which doesn't seem keen on provoking any of its neighbors. Contrast that to Saddam Hussein, who was a Sunni, and was bellicose toward everyone else in the region...including launching an invasion of Iran (with an assist from the United States).
Neither the government of Iran nor the government in Iraq has any reason to go to war with the other, and both seem pretty focused on building a good working relationship with their neighbor.
