WTF is the US doing there???? The real reason??? Because the US govt knows there is no hope in hell of being self-sustaining without stealing other nations assets.
Personally I don't give a shit about either US or Iranian govts - they are both elected, one based on how dumb they can be, the other based on how much they despise the US after a track record of interference.
Strange interest in counties you don't even know while messing in their affairs - that shit comes back to take a lump out of your ass. Clean up New Orleans before even discussing other nations.

Everyone knows why we are there. Oil. The same reason the British controlled parts of Iran as well as the old Soviet Union. Iran has a shitload of oil.
But almost every powerful country in this world takes advantage of other countries. It's just part of how the world works, the US is not exclusive to this tactic. It doesn't mean it's right, but to single out the US as the only country that does it is just wrong.
