That's kind of what the us wanted though, a bogeyman to justify militarism, to prevent the spread of socialism, and to prevent the region from unifying

    The US actually wants strong enemies opposing it. That’s why is you are anti-US, you should also oppose the American’s enemies. American imperialism will end once it rules the Earth completely unopposed with no strong enemies.

    Can’t wait to hear the next mental gymnastics westerners come up with to avoid their revolutionary defeatist duty

    The US wanted to prevent the spread of socialism because it threatened the interests of the American ruling class. Now, they pushed Iran towards the opposing pole with China at the helm, a socialist country to boot.

    So yeah, it succeeded at justifying militarism and destabilizing the Middle East, but not liquidating Iran as a threat.
