Why Iran has to be at war with west? or with any one?
Non Mullah People of Iran are very friendly!
I would say Ayatollahs too, otherwise a president of Iran under all the stress caused by the sanctions and military threats woud have most probably ordered the making of atomic weapons, So I would say, "Mullahs" as you call them are very wise people and they have proved it many times, unlike the Shah (whom I appreciated, but couldn't stand his policies of SAVAK, and the huge economical disparities between classes of people in Iran due to the worst forms of corruption, wide spread drug use, sexual perversity and too many other destructive matters to enumerate.).
So these highly educated mullahs Holding mostly PHDs in religion as well as in sciences, made Iran a role model even for the American and European youth and populations in general, so they are more than friendly, they are very influential, and you should be very proud of them and the achievements of Iran under their rule.
another concrete example is Afghanistan; when the Taliban ruled over for a few years the heroin production went down to almost Zero, and when Americans invaded Afghanistan it went up to 90% overnight, that is for drug trafficking to finance military spendings and because they need it for medical reasons to make morphine A much needed mediation in hospital and very expansive to make, So it was not about Al Quaeda and Oussama bin laden, nor the 9/11 affair (which have been proved beyond doubt that it was planned and carried out by The Israelis and insiders from the Us too.) it was mostly about Heroin (Afghanistan is the world biggest producer of heroin) and Morphine, Now the British and the Americans are trying to plant it in their countries to satisfy their craving or medical use, if it works, they will leave Afghanistan , if not they will try to stay as long as they can and make a "friend" of Afghanistan. does this ring a bell or not.
Personally I do not go for extreme Mullahs but for highly educated ones with equilibrium in tolerance according to the religious rules.
