I’m very surprised at you getting mass downvoted.

Their current plight goes all the way back to the 70s, where they literally got everything they wanted.

The Shah deposed, check. Carter humiliated and out of office, check. Religious oligarchy / theocracy / Islamic fundamentalism and Khomeini in power, check. Reagan elected, check. The US embarrassed and shamed, check.

Nothing good it seems come out of getting involved in the affairs of the Middle East.
