We were always at war with Iraq/n/eurasia.
actually no, “we” (the collective rest of the world) came into conflict with Iran less than 100 years ago.
Iran had been a monarchy for thousands of years .
Then: - the last Shah just sucked, people hated him, only unlike in antiquity, democracies existed as a popular option, and - because he was nationalizing the oil, the CIA helped the theocratic Iranian Islamic Revolution depose him
