Some people say that Iran is anti-American and Iraq is being beaten. Why?

1979, with the outbreak of the Islamic revolution in Iran, the United States has also changed from a core ally of Iran to a deadly enemy. Forty years later, American attacks on Iran have increased. Although "the Iranian nuclear deal" picked up a bit a few years ago, with Trump returning to sanctions, the two sides were once opposed. Why did the United States fight Iran for 40 years? "On the surface, the newly established Islamic Republic of Iran is very anti-American and overthrew the pro-American Pahlavi dynasty. But this is just a fuse.

In the final analysis, the struggle between the United States and Iraq was still because Iran was too powerful at that time, and it was worried that American dragons would not crush snakes on the ground. At this time, Saudi Arabia, Iraq and other Arab countries hostile to Iran became rich because of oil, so the United States had close ties with them to fight against the Soviet Union, and at the same time carried out strategic checks and balances on Iran. In this case, Iran had to be suppressed by the Soviet Union and the Arab world at the same time, and the global security situation deteriorated seriously. Therefore, Iran tends to disintegrate the US-Iran alliance, ease relations with the Soviet Union, and focus on dealing with the threat of Sunnis and Arabs. However, due to its highly pro-American nature, Pahlavi dynasty has been replaced by the anti-American Islamic Republic of Iran, because it has not adapted to the needs of the times and geographical changes.

But the disintegration of the US-Iraq alliance means that the United States and Iraq must confront each other. In fact, Iran's slogan at that time was "No East, no West, as long as it is the Soviet Union and the Eastern bloc"-in other words, it was not prepared to overthrow the Soviet Union and the Eastern bloc. After careful analysis, Iran's national strategy is actually to link the whole Islamic world with religion and push the Middle East to get rid of the oppression of the United States and the Soviet Union and become an independent pole, which conflicts with the interests of both the United States and the Soviet Union. Although the United States and the Soviet Union fought fiercely in the Middle East during the Cold War, it does not mean that they are willing to make a wedding dress for Islamic reunification.

Iran's idea seems crazy-it eats between two superpowers. However, after careful analysis, it is found that considering the geographical factors, the direct radiation of the United States and the Soviet Union in the Middle East is actually relatively limited, which not only maintains its own influence, but also highly relies on local allies-local agents. Iran is also the number one geopolitical power in the Middle East, and it can achieve its goal through the contradiction between the United States and the Soviet Union. Even though the United States and the Soviet Union know that Iran is malicious, because of mutual fear, it not only cannot do so, but may return to more detention and even contact.
