What’s amazing is that, in the backdrop of all this, antagonizing Iran is seen as acceptable and a good idea. It’d be like in the US repeatedly tried to invade Europe or a neighbor or something right before the civil war (which they kinda did, I know… but not like that).
That’s a good, concise explanation.

Huh? I assume you’re referring to the Mexican American War, but I don’t understand all the qualifiers you’re using.
Mostly wars against indians, and apparently some small ongoing skirmishes involving Mexico: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wars_involving_the_United_States
Mexican American War is kinda too far ahead? I’m not sure Americans saw a civil war as “imminent” then.
