You need to read more. Go get Herbert Hoover's book, "Freedom Betrayed".
Cordell Hull railroaded Konoe's government into collapse, knowing full well he'd get a militarist who would give FDR a pretense to break his campaign pledge and join the shooting war in earnest.
When America and Iran nevitably get in to a war, i bet you are going to blame Iran instead of all the war hawks in America that are clearly itching to go to war with them and who have continuously pushed Iran in to the corner. The American Secretary of War Henry L Stimson outright said word for word that they were trying to provoke Japan and corner them
Kirkpatrick was right that WE pushed the Shah to liberalize, which fueled Khomeini's opposition.
Then, after the revolution and having been told to fuck off, the neocon camp of GHW Bush and the like decided to prop up Hussein as an angry puppet to punish Iran with.
I don't expect there will be a war with Iran. Maybe another sea conflict like what happened with Operation Praying Mantis.
They went to war with every other Middle Eastern country that Israel doesnt like and have been destroying Iran's allies like Assad, but im sure Iran is going to be an exception right?

Iran is an entirely different beast from the other Middle Eastern countries. They can retaliate hard.
