Clueless? The US has been interfering in Iran (stuff like removing democratically elected prime minister) since 1953, at least.

The 1953 coup was ugly realpolitik, but the Islamic Republic's hostility began in 1979 (hostage crisis, embassy takeover, fatwas against the West). Iran has been the initiator of most modern conflict.
