Next time someone says that Iran is dangerous and they need to be stopped... some history to share:
1901:
A British businessman secures exclusive rights to Iran's oil. Iran gets almost nothing from its own resource.
1908:
Oil is struck. Anglo-Iranian Oil Company is formed.
It later becomes BP. The British Royal Navy converts from coal to oil, making Iranian petroleum a strategic military asset for the British Empire.
For the next 50 years, Iran's oil is extracted by a foreign corporation. Iran receives a fraction of the profits. Saudi Arabia negotiates a 50-50 profit split with ARAMCO.
Iran asks for the same terms. Britain refuses.
1951:
Iran's democratically elected Prime Minister, Mohammad Mossadegh, nationalizes Iran's oil through a unanimous vote in parliament.
Completely legal. Completely constitutional.
His argument was simple:
this is our oil.
Britain responds with an international blockade.
No negotiation. No compromise. They want their oil back.
1953:
The CIA (Operation Ajax) and MI6 (Operation Boot) overthrow Mossadegh.
They bribe politicians, clerics, journalists, and military officers. They fund fake protests. They run disinformation campaigns through newspapers they secretly own.
MI6 operatives kidnap and murder Iran's chief of police and dump his body in public as a warning.
They reinstall the Shah - a monarch who serves Western oil interests.
The CIA officially acknowledged its role in 2013.
After the coup, BP retains a 40% stake. American oil companies including Exxon and Mobil get significant shares.
Iran's democratic government is gone. Its oil is back under foreign control.
1953-1979:
The Shah rules for 26 years as a Western-backed authoritarian.
His secret police, SAVAK, is trained by the CIA and Mossad.
SAVAK tortures and kills political dissidents systematically. Iran becomes one of the largest purchasers of American weapons.
The Shah lives in extraordinary luxury while much of the population remains poor.
During this entire period, Israel and Iran are close allies. SAVAK and Mossad share intelligence. Israel sells weapons to Iran.
Nobody in the West calls Iran a "terrorist state" because the dictator is their dictator...
1979:
The Iranian people overthrow the Shah in a popular revolution.
This is where your list begins - as if the revolution appeared out of nowhere, motivated by nothing but religious fanaticism...
Now let's talk about the US Embassy that was attacked
The US news likes to paint the 1979 hostage crisis as an unprovoked attack on America.
The revolutionaries seized the embassy because the last time there was a democratic movement in Iran, the CIA ran the coup to crush it from that same embassy.
They weren't being paranoid. They were being historically accurate.
Britannica's own assessment:
"It is generally agreed today that the 1953 coup sowed the seeds for the Islamic Revolution of 1979."
That's not a conspiracy theory. That's the encyclopedia...
Now let's ask a couple more Questions
Why are there U.S. military bases in Iraq?
Because the U.S. invaded Iraq in 2003 on claims of 'weapons of mass destruction' that turned out to be false... Over a million Iraqi civilians died.
No American official was ever prosecuted.
Why is there conflict with Hezbollah in Lebanon?
Because Israel invaded Lebanon in 1982 and occupied southern Lebanon for 18 years.
Why are Houthi rebels attacking ships?
Because a U.S.-backed Saudi coalition bombed Yemen for years, creating what the UN called "the world's worst humanitarian crisis."
Over 150,000 dead. Famine. Cholera outbreaks.
Why does Iran pursue nuclear capability?
Possibly because Israel has an undeclared nuclear arsenal estimated at 80-400 warheads, has never signed the Non-Proliferation Treaty, faces zero international inspections, and has never been sanctioned for it.
Iran signed the NPT. Iran agreed to inspections. Iran signed the nuclear deal in 2015. The U.S. pulled out of that deal in 2018.
Every single item on your list is framed as Iranian aggression against "the West."
But none of them exist without the West's 70-year campaign of overthrowing Iran's democracy, installing a dictator, extracting its oil, arming its neighbors, invading the countries on its borders, and maintaining military bases throughout the region.
Now trace who Benefits
The 1953 coup was about oil. BP and American oil companies got the oil.
The Shah's 26-year reign was about strategic positioning. The U.S. and Israel got a compliant ally on the Soviet border and in the Middle East.
The post-1979 framing of Iran as a "terrorist state" serves a specific function: it justifies permanent U.S. military presence in the Middle East, billions in annual arms sales to Saudi Arabia and Gulf states, and unconditional U.S. support for Israel's regional dominance.
Every "Iranian attack" on your list occurred in a country where the U.S. had no legal right to be in the first place:
Iraq, Syria, Jordan.
American troops are stationed across the Middle East not because those countries asked for protection from Iran, but because the U.S. positioned itself there to control the region's resources and protect its strategic architecture.
When someone punches you for 70 years - overthrows your government, installs a dictator, trains his secret police to torture your people, extracts your oil, invades the countries on your borders, surrounds you with military bases, and sanctions your economy into the ground - and then you punch back, the question isn't,
"why are you violent?..."
The question is:
who threw the first punch?
And who's been profiting from the fight ever since?
That's not a defense of the Iranian regime.
The theocracy that replaced the Shah has its own record of brutality against its own people, especially women. But that regime exists because the CIA destroyed Iran's democracy in 1953.
The West created the conditions for the very thing it now claims to oppose.
The history continues...
HAMAS (October 7, 2023)
"Hamas, to my great regret, is Israel's creation," said Avner Cohen, a former Israeli religious affairs official who worked in Gaza for more than two decades, to the Wall Street Journal in 2009.
Brigadier General Yitzhak Segev, who served as Israeli military governor in Gaza in the early 1980s, told the New York Times that he had helped finance the Palestinian Islamist movement as a "counterweight" to the PLO.
"The Israeli government gave me a budget," the retired brigadier general confessed, "and the military government gives to the mosques."
Initially, Hamas was discreetly supported by Israel, as a counter-balance to the secular Palestine Liberation Organization to prevent the creation of an independent Palestinian state.
And it didn't stop in the 1980s.
According to the New York Times, Israeli intelligence agents traveled into Gaza with a Qatari official carrying suitcases filled with cash to disperse money.
In 2015, Bezalel Smotrich, currently the finance minister in Netanyahu's government, summed up the strategy:
"The Palestinian Authority is a burden. Hamas is an asset."
Netanyahu told journalist Dan Margalit that it was important to keep Hamas strong, as a counterweight to the Palestinian Authority.
Having two strong rivals, including Hamas, would lessen pressure on him to negotiate toward a Palestinian state.
Netanyahu penned a letter to Qatar in 2018 asking the Qatari leadership to continue funding Hamas...
HEZBOLLAH (1983 Beirut bombings, kidnappings)
Hezbollah was formed in 1982 - the same year Israel invaded Lebanon.
It didn't exist before the invasion. Israel invaded Lebanon to destroy the PLO headquarters there. The invasion killed approximately 20,000 people, mostly civilians.
Hezbollah was born as a direct resistance movement to that invasion.
The 1983 Marine barracks bombing on the commenter's list killed 241 Americans.
But why were U.S. Marines in Lebanon?
Because the U.S. had intervened in the Lebanese Civil War, positioning itself as a participant in the conflict rather than a neutral peacekeeper.
The Marines were shelling Druze and Shia positions from naval vessels before the bombing.
IRAN'S PROXY NETWORK (Houthis, Kataib Hezbollah, militias in Iraq and Syria)
Every proxy on that list operates in a country where the U.S. or its allies intervened first.
Iraq - the U.S. invaded in 2003 on false WMD claims. Iranian-backed militias formed to resist the occupation.
Syria - the CIA ran Operation Timber Sycamore, spending billions arming Syrian rebels, many of whom were jihadists. Iran backed Assad. Both sides were proxies in someone else's war.
Yemen - the Houthis fight against a Saudi-led coalition that the U.S. armed and supported. The Saudi bombing campaign created what the UN called the world's worst humanitarian crisis.

Don't forget that it's true today...!
The enemy is not the one vilified by billionaire owned media dynasties...

Return to The Actual Iran Case - The Beginning of World War III? - War against Iran 2026
The International Court of Justice says Israel has obligation to ensure and facilitate humanitarian relief to Palestinians.
The International Court of Justice also Rejected EVERY SINGLE LIE Israel Told to Them.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YngxqATAZGE
The world’s top court on Wednesday ruled that Israel‘s ban on the UN’s main humanitarian provider to Palestinians and its restrictions on aid to Gaza and the occupied West Bank violate international law.
The court unanimously found that Israel as an occupying power is required to fulfil its obligations under international humanitarian law, including to ensure that Palestinians have essential supplies of daily life including food, medical supplies and shelter.
It also ruled by 10 votes to 1 that Israel must agree to and facilitate by all means at its disposal relief schemes for the people of Gaza and not impede them.
That includes those provided by the United Nations and its entities, in particular the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, Unrwa.
The court also ruled that Israel must abide by its obligations under international law not to forcibly displace or transfer the population under its occupation, and to respect the prohibition of the use of statvation as a method of war.
The court added that Israel must cooperate in good faith with the United Nations, including Unrwa, and to respect and ensure respect for the privileges and immunites accorded to the UN’s premises and officials.
In its advisory opinion, the court found that Israel has failed to substantiate its claims that a significant number of Unrwa staff are affiliated to Hamas.
It also emphasised its opinion that Unrwa is “impartial” and indispensable for the provision of relief to Palestinians, as mandated by the UN General Assembly.
The court also noted Israel’s total siege on Gaza between 2 March and 18 May, and the attempt to replace the work of the UN with the highly controversial Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF).
The court found that Israel, through the GHF, had not ensured that the population of the Gaza Strip is adequately supplied as required by international humanitarian law.
“The court notes the UN acting through Unrwa had been an indispensable provider of humanitarian relief,” the opinion read.
“The court considers that Israel is under an obligation to agree to and faciliate relief schemes provided by the UN and its entities, including Unrwa.”
The advisory opinion comes six months after hearings by the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague, where more than 40 states and international organisations presented evidence mostly arguing that Israel had breached its international legal obligations to facilitate the entry of aid to the Palestinian population under its occupation.
Only the US and Hungary disputed the majority opinion, arguing for an interpretation of international humanitarian law in favour of limiting such obligation due to military necessity and Israel’s security.
The case was prompted by Israel banning Unrwa, the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, in October 2024, an event that sparked global outrage and calls for Israel to be ejected from the United Nations due to accusations that it violated the founding charter, particularly the privileges and immunities enjoyed by its agencies.
Wednesday’s ruling is the third advisory opinion case since 2004 to be heard before the ICJ in relation to Israel’s violations of international law.
ICJ advisory opinions are highly authoritative among states and the court’s interpretation of a legal question is considered binding as a matter of general international law.
This latest ICJ ruling tightens legal noose around Israeli regime over Gaza genocide.
