Iranians hate America forever because America CIA toppled Iran's first democratically elected government in the 1950s. Even if America nukes Iran,
Iranians will still forever hate America. If America didn't topple Iran's first democratically elected government in the 1950s, Iran would be very pro
America today.
So, they got back at the US by leaving democracy behind, choosing instead to surrender all their property and liberty to a group of religious
scholars, who were mediocre theologians but had adherence to the party?
That's some revenge, all right.
The CIA sucks for that, and Iran is probably an enemy forever. The CIA has toppled a lot of regimes, including Jack Kennedy's. But Iran isn't
shooting people in downtown Paris because of the CIA. They are doing it because of their civilizational war on the west.
The fact is, the age of liberalism is drawing to a close. It just got a head start in Iran's case. But in South/west Asia, state after state is
rejecting the western ideal of modernity. It is a civilizational conflict for them. And it doesn't matter what the US (or Spain, or France, or the
EU, or Australia) does at this point. It is war.
