Israel and Iran

Let them kill each other. I couldn’t care less about either country. I don’t want any US involvement, but that’s a pipe dream.

The problem is America has been involved with both of them from the 1940s and 50s. That horse has long since bolted.

@Richard65 The United States is responsible for creating instability in Iran.

@chrisCA the UK is responsible too. Churchill asked the USA to help overthrow Iranian Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh in the 1953 coup after Mosaddegh decided to nationalise Iranian oil supplies. Mosaddegh was eventually overthrown and the USA installed the Shah in his place. The rest is history.

@Richard65 That's right.
