Diametrically Opposed Doctrines: United States of America against Iran
"The United States and some European countries consider Iran and its foreign policy "the greatest threat to security and stability in the Middle East." On the other hand, the Islamic regime in Tehran regards the West in general and the United States in particular as "the enemies of Islam and Iran.""
But why?
"According to what is spelled out in the constitution, Iranian foreign policy is made according to a number of fundamental principles: First, rejecting all forms of external domination; second, preserving Iran's independence and territorial integrity; third, defending the rights of all Muslims without allying with hegemonic powers; and fourth, maintaining peaceful relations with all non-belligerent states."
I'd say that is a pretty accurate assessment of the overall problem. No explanation needed.
The result?
"In this context, it becomes understandable why Iranians are heading towards the East rather than the West. Such a predisposition can be perceived as a response to: First, the cultural attack on the basic principles of the Islamic Revolution; and second, the notorious history of British and US intervention in Iran in the 20th century, not to mention the US-backed overthrow of Prime Minster Mohammed Mossadaq, who wanted to nationalize Iranian oil production, in 1953."

few European states (e.g., France and Germany for obvious reasons -- A. Merkel and N. Sarkozy) and the US certainly, do not estimate any geopolitical trepidation as a result of machinations of the Islamic Republic.
On the contrary, an ill advised and illegal attack on Iran by Israel and/or her minions/allies would merely exacerbate economic woes around the world. It would seem that the deepening economic quagmire has pulled the Israeli first strike on Iran option off of the table.

Thanks for your post. Too bad it doesn't actually make grammatical sense.
I sincerely believe that you mean well but in the end, it looks like you just hoped to use the word "machinations".
There's more to eloquence than big words.
Iran has always told the truth about the possibility for a strike against them. You most likely do not understand the success of the successful but maybe, who knows...one day in'sha'allah you will.
Peace
