Would american foreign policy have gone better without an alliance with israel? Many foreign policy analysts say iran tried to ally with the US in the 80s but was spurned because of israel
>>
Iran has repeatedly tried to be friendly with the US. Even in the 2000s when the US launched the War on Terror. Even in the 2010s with negotiations.

Israel and Zionists are the only reason the US continues to have problem with Iran, and was for every other country in the region. They've actively lobbied for the US to sanction, sabotage and topple Iraq, Iran, Libya, Syria, Sudan and Lebanon since the 1990s.

America has never had an alliance with Israel.

P.S. In the first half of the 1980s, Israel was still closer to Iran than the US was actually. They continued to sell IR Iran weapons and maintenance. Israel considered Saddam's Iraq its bigger enemy, whereas the West, the Warsaw Pact and Yugoslavia supported Iraq.

Hezbollah formed in 1984 in response to Israel's ongoing occupation of Southern Lebanon since 1982 during the Lebanese Civil War. The hard break between Iran and Israel transpired between 1985 and 1986. Hezbollah defeated Israel forcing it to retreat in May 2000 from Lebanese territory it occupied three-times the size of the Gaza Strip.

Hafez al-Assad's Syria initially supported Iran against Iraq too, but they became enemies with Hezbollah as part of the Lebanese Civil War (1975–90). Libya sold Iran weapons too. It's where Iran got ballistic missile technology from the mid-80s. Iran ended up being anti-Gaddafi during the 2011 war by the US, France, UK, Zionists and Gulf Arab monarchies.

They are esoterically interconnected since their conception is equally artificial for both countries and they serve the same goddess.

Spellcheck.

Problem is simple, Iran is a Abrahamic theocracy and no theocracy has any right to exist in this world. Whether they’re MAGA Christian nationalists or Islamists, just throw them all into Tartarus.

I like how this 80s newspaper looks like it's from the 30s

Only because we were fighting S*ddam and the s*nnis

The Israel lobby pushed hard for the US to sanction Iran in the 80's. They really should be close friends otherwise they really like American culture even the more religious hard liners, Khamenei used to post on twitter back in the day.
Clinton specifically stopped American companies from investing in Iran on behalf of Israel.

They were doing it long before that they had wanted a democracy/wester style government since the early 20th century, read The Strangling of Persia. Both before the 1953 coup and after in the early 1980's they had tried working with the US for foreign investment, culture and governance.

much better than a secular religio/ethnostate

>>18390953
It’s not. Theocracy is the lowest form of government. Anything is better, even Stalinism is better than an Islamic theocracy

>>18390970
if it worked for thousands of years it can work now

The sub-headline on the bottom left under the big headline says "American souce: Iran has no means to develop a nuclear weapon"
