The current conflict between Iran and Israel is turning out to be a very dangerous one, completely changing the political landscape of the Middle East. This unstable scenario is a mess made up of political games and some very basic conflicts in ideas.
Iran’s leaders have refused to accept Israel’s right to exist since the Islamic Revolution in 1979 and have backed a number of armed groups. Israel clearly sees Iran as a direct threat to its very survival.
Tensions between the two countries have hit an all-time high in 2024 and 2025. They are very close to going to war, which could be very bad for innocent people.
There has been a long-running shadow war going on behind the scenes, with covert operations and cyberattacks, especially in Syria, where Iran often utilizes proxy forces.
Even if diplomatic discussions aren’t going anywhere right now, some individuals still believe that international pressure can keep these two countries from getting into a full-blown, disastrous war.
