"Harm and pain"

Iran threatened the United States with "harm and pain" today in Vienna, Austria, for bringing Iran in front of the security council. Harm and pain could mean a lot of things, and they could end up being just as bad for Iran as for us. The United States historically has a large anti-war minority, but the vast majority of the country does not respond well to this type of overt threat. If Iran takes its actions too far with this threat, it is going to find itself with a very unified, angry enemy.
