  (Japanese Version)   Part I. Israel bombs a nuclear plant in Iran (63)   Chapter 24 US Military embarks on (1) Kill before you are killed (1/2)   The turmoil in the Persian Gulf region was further escalated by the US containment policy of Iran, which was triggered by the alleged nuclear development in Iran. It was the US logic that once Iran took lead in nuclear development in the region, the entire Middle East would become unstable and Iranian nuclear weapons might be smuggled to Islamic terrorist organizations in the future.   But the U.S. vital interest was Israeli security. For the United States, Israel itself was located far from U.S. where was geographically on the opposite side of the world beyond the Atlantic Ocean. And Israel was not so much economic significance for U.S. Nevertheless, the United States supported Israel because politicians were manipulated by the pressure of the Israe...

Israel bombs a nuclear plant in Iran (61)   Chapter 23 US Military embarks on (1) Al Udeid Air Base (2/3)     But today, the United States put more emphasis on Ira than sea lanes in the Persian Gulf. During the Shah regime before 1978, the United States sold large quantities of modern weapons to Iran. Iran acted as a "police in the Persian Gulf" and entrusting security to the region on behalf of the United States. In 1978 the Islamic Revolution was taken place by Ayatollah Khomeini. Since then, Iran has been a mortal enemy for the United States.   Immediately after the revolution, the US embassy in Tehran was occupied by the Khomeini-backed Revolutionary Guard for over a year. This has hurt the prestige of the United States. The U.S. President Jimmy Carter attempted a rescue operation. But the operation had been failed with the poor result as a rescue helico...

Israel bombs a nuclear plant in Iran (62)   Chapter 23 US Military embarks on (1) Al Udeid Air Base (3/3)     Later, the United States used military reconnaissance satellites to search for Iran's movements during the Iran-Iraq War, and transmitted that information to Iraq and supported them to beat Iran. The Hussein dictatorship in Iraq at that time was completely unacceptable to the United States. But it was said that the enemy's enemy was an ally, that was to say Iraq was an U.S. ally. The United States eventually encouraged the Hussein administration and finally resulted in the invasion into Kuwait, the Gulf War and the Iraq War. It was the irony of history.   US diplomacy related to Iran and the Arab countries was random. It caused the confusion in the region. But US diplomacy was otherwise consistent. It was the absolute diplomacy of the United States in the Middle East to support Israel. It undoubtedly ca...
