"Iran literally screams Death to America!"
If they did even a fraction of what we've done to them in the 20th century we would also be saying "Death to Iran"
A history lesson:
1951: Iran democratically elects Mohammad Mosaddegh, who wins overwhelmingly on his promise to nationalize Iranian oil that had been given away to the British before Iran formed as a modern country
1953: CIA and MI6 develop a plan to overthrow Mosaddegh and install a Western friendly puppet. The operation, dubbed Operation Ajax, was the first successful Color Revolution in intelligence history. They installed the Western-friendly Mohammad Reza Pahlavi as Shah (dictator) of Iran
1954: The US drafts a Consortium Agreement guaranteeing 50% of Iran's oil profits to American-friendly corporations, for 25 years
1957: The CIA and Mossad train up a secret police in Iran called the SAVAK, who operated like a KGB who would round up dissidents and torture and kill them. Eventually thousands of Iranians would be killed this way
1960-1978: The Shah, at the US's request, would purchase as many arms as possible from American defense contractors - this is why they even have F-14's today. In the 70's alone they spent $120 billion in today's dollars. Their annual revenues were around $17-25 billion, this represented almost all of their spending causing massive shortages for social services
1979: On the tail of the Shah trying to liberalize Iran socially like what's happened to America, along with 25% inflation the Iranians rise up and overthrow the Shah and install hardliner religious fanatics who oppose America. America immediately placed sanctions on Iran, who was already struggling financially. These sanctions still exist today, nearly all of their revenue is black market oil sales
1980: Sensing weakness in their neighbor, Iraq invades Iran hoping to take them over. This war would last 8 years and would end in a stalemate, despite Iraq committing 1 million soldiers. The US armed Iraq with arms, funding and illegal chemical weapons
1988: The USS Vincennes, operating in Iran territorial waters on behalf of Iraq, shoots down Iran Air Flight 655, a passenger plane with 290 civilians, all killed. The US would later go on to hand out medals to the crew of the Vincennes. This would be one of the major reasons for a UN resolution finally ending the war
1988-present: The CIA and Mossad have attempted many Color Revolutions, at least 4 documented, the most recent being just before the current conflict. Iran quickly crushes these attempts, often leading to the deaths of civilians caught up in them
Yes, they hate us. Yes they kill our troops in the region. Yes they fund proxies that attack Israel
They have good cause to do so
