The history of animosity between the?United States?and Iran is rooted in decades of intervention, revolution, and ideological conflict. While the two nations were once close allies under the Shah, their relationship fractured during the 1979 Islamic Revolution and has been characterized by mutual distrust ever since.?

Historical Foundations of Conflict

  • 1953 CIA-Backed Coup: The?CIA and British MI6?orchestrated a coup to overthrow democratically elected Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadegh after he nationalized Iran's oil industry. This reinstated the Shah, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, fueling long-term Iranian resentment toward Western interference.
  • The 1979 Revolution and Hostage Crisis: Following the Shah's ouster, radical students?seized the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, holding 52 Americans hostage for 444 days. The U.S. severed diplomatic ties in 1980, which have never been restored.
  • Iran-Iraq War (1980–1988): The U.S. supported Iraq during this conflict, even after learning of its chemical weapons use against Iranians. Tensions peaked in 1988 when the U.S. Navy?mistakenly shot down an Iranian passenger jet, killing all 290 people on board.?

Modern Escalations

  • "Axis of Evil": In 2002, President George W. Bush grouped Iran with Iraq and North Korea as an "axis of evil," accusing it of pursuing weapons of mass destruction.
  • Nuclear Tensions Sanctions: The U.S. has used extensive sanctions to curb Iran's nuclear program. While the 2015?Nuclear Deal (JCPOA)?briefly eased tensions, the U.S. unilaterally withdrew in 2018, initiating a "maximum pressure" campaign.
  • Military Strikes (2020–2026):
    • 2020: The U.S.?assassinated General Qassem Soleimani?in a drone strike, leading to direct Iranian missile retaliation against U.S. bases.
    • 2025–2026: Under the second Trump administration, the U.S. conducted?Operation Midnight Hammer, using B-2 bombers to strike Iranian nuclear facilities, marking a major escalation in direct military engagement.
