I personally have a strong sympathy with Iran and its people, owing to a variety of historical reasons. But I believe, that Iran, like some other Muslim countries including KSA, have overstretched themselves, in the geopolitics, beyond their inherent strength. This was, what was the planning of nexus of US, West and Israel, to enhance the cleavage and strife between different relatively strong Muslim countries, in order, ultimately to waste, whatever little strength, they have, and to subdue and subordinate them, as a consequence. Unfortunately, they are succeeding in their plans and, one by one, Muslim countries are being lured into this disastrous net.
