> USA has hated iran since the revolution.

Since the revolutionaries declared themselves enemies of America, took hostage US embassy workers and tortured them for over a year.*

Agreed that this isn’t about Epstein though. According to the Biden DoJ, Iran attempted to assassinate Trump. He’s rather vindictive.

Yes. I didn't really want to go into causes, because you end up going into x did this but y did that. The important part in context is just that usa has hated iran for a long time. But it is frustrating how people seem to totally ignore the historical context of this conflict. Especially with regards to Israel where they act like they attacked iran out of nowhere instead of recognizing they have been in a cold war with them for like 20 years now.

Like you can't understand current events if you totally ignore the historical events that lead to this moment.
