While what you say is true, I hope everyone understands that we (the U.S., OPEC, NATO, and Israel), have been the much, much bigger belligerent and aggressor in the area, comparative to Iran, or anyone else. To properly analyze a situation and pass correct judgment, we must be honest with ourselves and not be logically inconsistent.

We've bombed almost every nation and people in the area that are opposed to Israel, or in the way of the Greater Israel project, or oppose central banking, or oppose the use of the petro dollar, or have tried to institute a gold backed currency (circumventing the petro dollar and central bankers). Numerous times, we've armed, trained, funded, manned, and often led "rebel" groups, that have started or become terrorist groups later on. For example, the Taliban, which we initially supported to oppose the Soviets, and who later became our enemies because of 9/11, due to the war propaganda to get us involved in Afghanistan, to protect poppy fields, which resulted in the opioid crises in the U.S., even though the government knew Bin Laden wasn't in Afghanistan, and that the Taliban wasn't guilty of 9/11 (Israel and the CIA were). Another example is the Libyan rebels we armed and supported to oust Gaddafi, because he was instituting a gold backed currency, which would be harmful to the petro dollar and the bankers. Another example is the Syrian civil war, which was entirely caused by the West, as we (the CIA and Mossad) created, manned, led, trained, armed, and funded the rebel factions which turned into ISIS, leading to the deaths of millions. The CIA and Israel also used their control of the media to put out fake stories of Assad using chemical weapons against his own people, and, one of the primary reasons we wanted to oust Assad is that he was in the way of the Greater Israel project.

If we're being honest, if we're being logically consistent, we would understand why Middle Easterners hate Americans, we would understand why Iran calls us "big Satan", and why they've used proxy forces to attack us for decades, because we've been neck deep in bullshit over there (out own doing), for decades.

We don't have to take the false position that Islam is good, or that Muslims are friendly, to know that we (the people in power of the West) are the bad guys, and that what we're doing to Iran is just an extension of a long line of evil we've perpetrated. Remember, that false dichotomies are how the people in power manipulate us. We don't have to accept or fall into their traps.
