I don’t know everything, so I’m asking a rather basic question:
Why is Iran such a big boogeyman in the eyes of the US? They have been spreading the usual narrative of an evil dictatorship or whatever for decades now and even used Iraq as a proxy against Iran in the 80s. Iran has been subjected to so many accusations, which I assume majority of them are wrong or how the US is especially insistent that Iran is developing nuclear weapons, they cry about Iran funding and supplying all these anti-US militias and so on. Are they trying to find a reason to invade?
My question is, why is Iran viewed as such a threat to the US interests in the Middle East?
