US +1: 1953, overthrow Iran's government, install dictator, give him US-trained secret police force, SAVAK, to rule corruptly terrorizing the country for 25 years
US+1: Instigate Saddam attacking Iran for a nearly decade long war, while the US secretly pretended to be on both sides until caught near the end of the war, causing about a million Iranian casualties, including from WMD I suspect the US had a role in supplying
Neutral: Iran and US at odds as Shah overthrown in revolution, embassy taken hostage to prevent sabotage of revolution and new regime, not released to help Reagan win election, then released
US +1: US blocks UN action against rogue state for bombing Iranian consulate
US +1: Assassinated Iran's top general national hero on peace mission to Saudi Arabia
US +1: Supplied weapons for rogue state war on Iran
US +1: Committed diplomatic subterfuge of commitment to diplomacy to help rogue state attack of Iranian leadership
US +1: Bombed Iran's civilian nuclear energy facilities
This is a partial list, but it's awfully one-sided of a 75 year history of devastating US attacks on Iran, initially at the behest of Britain, later the behest of the rogue state. If they chant 'Death to America' - reportedly a cultural phrase used to criticize things - who can blame them? Would the US just chant that if they did that to the US?
