Nope, it's one of the most repressive countries in the world. The government is an "Islamic Republic" - it's controlled by Muslim clerics and elections are rigged so that their supporters always win. In 2009 there were protests against the rigged elections by the "Green Movement" but since then they have been subdued. The Arab Spring has inspired a few more protests, but since Iran is not an Arab country it has been less affected.
The government is very anti-American and anti-Israel. It had a long-time rivalry with Saddam Hussein in next-door Iraq, since he had unsuccessfully tried to invade them in the early 1980s. They opposed the American invasion, believing a US puppet state would be created. There is concern that they are trying to build nuclear weapons, because they have a nuclear power program even though the country has an abundance of oil.
The current regime dates from the 1979 revolution. Prior to that, Iran was controlled by a monarch called the Shah who made the country a US puppet state - although he wasn't nearly as bad.
The regime jails and tortures opponents, supresses much political opposition and media and executes over 250 people a year, often in public, making it second only to China. As for religious freedom - you can forget it. Recently international attention has been drawn to a Christian pastor who is facing execution for converting from Islam. The case has now been passed to the Supreme Leader. Mostly likely they will wait until the international attention has died down before making a final decision.
I'm sorry, but that's a very foolish question to ask. You can't claim that one country is "better" than another. Every nation is full of its own people, history, and culture. They are all on an equal standing and all are full of beauty.
Answer 1
Iran not bad country.
Answer 2
Iran is not a bad country per se, and most people who know about Iran have nothing but love and appreciation for its people. However, the government of Iran is very problematic in terms of its constitution and its political aims.
The government of Iran has a very poor human rights record. Some of the offenses of the government include:
Iran also has numerous foreign policy aims that pose stability problems for other countries, including:
Iran's constituion also prevents the people from effectively choosing the government's policy by giving the unelected Supreme Council of Ayatollahs effective control over which candidates can run for political office as well as an overriding veto over any political policy chosen by the Majlis and President of Iran (the elected branches).

Where Iran and Iraq are concerned, neither is a "good guy". Both are rather problematic countries at this point. The lesser of two evils in Iraq, but that is not saying much.
No. Iraq and Iran currently enjoy good diplomatic relations and their leaders have visited each others' capitals several times.
It's really hard but very good.
The US supported Iran and the Soviets supported Iraq during the Iran-Iraq War 1980-1988.
