    Iran, in general, with the theocracy in power, along with the Supreme Leader and hard-line clerics, considers most Western countries evil. The quote which you stated means, simply, Iran considers Britain evil. It is difficult to know what exactly the global definition of 'evil' is because of its growing usage (Former President Bush's 'Axis of Evil' is one other example). It is probably that the quote means Iran detests the democratic system in Britain, but it could mean more.

    While it is possible that Iran could declare war on the US or a European superpower, it is also highly unlikely. Iran is currently dealing with the amount of protests over the recent elections; since their (Iran's) population is so young, these protests could continue even if the government puts down the majority of them. Grassroots protests have already taken place and the current ones are only fueling the fire against the government. A world war is also highly unlikely, but it has a slight possibility due to the high nuclear tension between Iran and the Western world. There are few countries that would side with Iran as well, but one majour ally they would have would be North Korea. Overall, a war is unlikely.

    Are you paranoid?Is a world war supposed to break on someone's statements?
    .
    Everyone has his her own perceptions and leaders are very good in developing perceptions.It's better not to listen to those and if some how they hit your ear drums,take those as light entertainment.

    They also said the US is the "Great Satan" a few years ago and they never did anything. These people are mostly just talk. All hot air with little substance. That doesn't mean they aren't dangerous though.

    Much of this rhetoric comes from Khomeimi and has for years.It does not mean war on Britain.

    That is because Britain is instigating a civil unrest in Iran.
