The Islamic revolution in Iran in 1979 was born in blood and terror with the takeover of the US embassy, the bombings of US and french amry in Beirut, and has continued its MO for close to 50 years.
From the 1979 takeover of the US Embassy in Tehran to the bombing of American and French forces in Beirut, the regime announced from its first days that it would not be a normal government. It would be a revolutionary terror machine.
For nearly 50 years, that machine has left a trail of destruction across the Middle East and far beyond it.
Unlike the Cold War with the Soviet Union, which was often fought in the shadows, Iran’s war against the West and its allies has been hot, open, and undeniable. It built proxy armies in Lebanon, Gaza, Yemen, Iraq, and Syria. It armed terrorists, trained militias, funded assassins, attacked ships, destabilized governments, and turned entire countries into battlefields.
