Err, kinda. Iran is still as aligned against America and with its rivals as if it were a socialist nation. But while the US decided at some point that they value Iran more as an MIC-justifying bogeyman than a friend (them ripping up the Iran Deal), it's coming back to bite them in the ass with the rise of the opposing pole.
Then again, maybe we're ascribing too much rational thought to the American ruling class, since it's apparent that even they don't know what the fuck they want.
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.
:very-intelligent:
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.
Would actually hope for that if I didn't know that the Islamists had so effectively liquidated the Communist movement.
Yeah... The Americans got what they wanted.
