I love the way it starts by jumping from 1948 to 1979, completely ignoring the US/UK coup of 1953, the seminal event in the history of modern Iran, on which everting in today's Middel East has pivioted. Jesus ! This passes for journalism ???
To be fair, this video DOES mention the deposition of the Shah. It doesn't explain how the Shah got into place and the resentment that caused, which might have been useful. But every video about history has to start somewhere or else you'd be going back forever. This never claimed to be a comprehensive history of Iran, but you are correct that that is valuable background in terms of Iranian resentment of U.S. interference in the region.
Hi ... totally agree with you....just made a comment about the impact of Western powers and interference in the region....sad to this very important piece of contextual information missing from their analysis......lack of research and attention to detail...... disappointing for a major European news outlet.
u mean that maybe Iran(shia majority) is in conflict with israel because they care about the sunni majority "palestinians" arabs?.....u dont know much if u belive that, because iran didnt care and massacred sunnis in syria and Iraq......
"He wrote several books on a particular topic in two languages. So he really knows what he's talking about..." , This is the most superficial thing I've heard in a while. What an insult to the audience's intelligence.
Incredibly, you did not mention the recent agreement between Iran and Saudi Arabia brokered by China that led even to an exchage of ambassadors and put and end to Iran's isolation, nor did you mention Syria position nor the fact that Israel owns 100-200 nuclear bombs. More, you reported and used the US and EU definitions of IRAN as they were "the truth", while they're obviously negative. So your storytelling is very partial, in my opinion.
Its to divert Iranians attention. To rule iran , unchallenged They want to flex muscles in middle east. Shame. This is also cold war politics. Russia with Iran and Israel with US. This is power struggle. Religious conflict. Palestine fades into background. Even if Palestine disappears, Iran will do same. To show their power. If there was no Israel, they would 100 percent be befighting Saudia..thats next on their target.
"He wrote several books on a particular topic in two languages. So he really knows what he's talking about..." Idk, is that really the way you do your research? Because my prof would have my head for such a statement.
A news channel doesn't operate the same way a as a research institution or a think tank. That's why a German Israeli and Irani news media documentary on this same topic will give you 3 different perspectives.
When I heard it I almost dropped my cup. Overall, this is a poorly prepared video, but that statement sounded like taken from a paper written by a 10 yo.
This video is not good enough to explain how much the issue is complicated. The Israelis-Iranian relationship is far more complex than this document briefly mentioned. For example, the Israeli ambassador to South Korea once said to Koreans "One day, we will have a peaceful relationship with Iran, I am sure. For we have no issue or argument with Iran as a country. Maybe around that time, the Korean peninsula would be united." The Israeli diplomat might have lied to Koreans, but I believe this comment shows that the Israeli foreign policy establishment sees their relationship with Iran in a multi-dimensional way. And Iranians are not as simple and homogeneous as this video describes. They have a sophisticated and institutionalised governance system. Some may be religious and ideological but others must be practical and competitive. That is why the Iranian regime managed to survive even though there was and is a lot of pressure to destroy it. To sum up, my point is this: do not underestimate how far both Israelis and Iranians are capable and how complicated each of their internal societies are. It's not that much simple. If it were, it would have been much easier to deal with this issue.
Iran regime wants destruction of Israel and the west no matter what. Israel will push back and will go as far as they possibly can to make sure Iran know they have right to exist
Iran has a dictatorship. Israel has a democratie. What would i prefer? The people of Iran are as nice as every other culture, but their leadership is not.
You mentioned that Israel and Saudi Arabia were close to start deplomatic relations before October 7th and Iran didn't like it but you forgot to mention that Iran and Saudi Arabia had already normalized their relationship before Oct 7th
That normalization process was nothing more than a superficial appearance, as both states were pressured by China which was planning to invest in the region. Iran and Saudi Arabia are actually still arch enemies and fierce competitors.
And let's not forget that the first democratically elected president (Mossadegh) was removed (according to most history books) by a coup engineered by the CIA in '53, & the new Shah was an Autocrat - even American puppets are autocrats - hopefully you can see why a revolution was needed in '79
This is not the "real reason" behind the conflict. This is just an explanation of how the conflict is progressing. The disabled pipeline is a consequence not an underlying cause.
The reporter says that Iran is avoiding a direct confrontation with Israel because Israel is backed by the US which is the most powerful country in the planet. So, why does Israel not attack Iran since they are not afraid of them and has more sophisticated air force? 😂
@@JenniferTziviaMacLeod video title says “real reason”. And first thing that the video talks about is the pipeline. Technically you are right, practically the video is implicitly deceptive. Making a clear statement without an explicit statement.
Israel and Iran calling the other the bad guys, they both are evils. IDF killing civilians without consequences, especially children or locked boys and girls up and the world did not call them out. Iran oppression women+ other bad actions
Cyrus is remembered in history because of his political philosophy of tolerance and respect toward non-Persians and his demonstration of mercy on his defeated foe. After establishing his empire, Cyrus allowed all subjects to participate in governance.
Does Azerbaijan have an adversarial relationship with Iran? If not, it's hard to imagine it would allow Israel to launch strikes from within its borders, which could result in retaliatory attacks on its own land.
The tensions go at least back to the Treaty of Turkmenchay in 1828, and involves Russian Imperialism into the region (surprise). The Azeris as are one of the largest minority ethnic groups in Iran and has a complicated history stuck between powers trying to rule them, no expert on it myself tho
Azerbaijan, though very predominantly Islam, follows a different type of ideology. In addition, they (Azebaijan and its people) are complete opposites of Iran.
Read Matt 4:8-10 will settle all who are concerned with the political problems in this world. I was so passionate against injustice in my country that I offered myself to be candidate of a political party. Now on reading John 18:36, my regular prayer is “ Even so, come,Lord Jesus. “

The nation of Iran doesn't oppose Israel or America. The demonstrations you showed are filled with the minority of people who support the regime. Less than 10% of the people. The heart of the nation of Iran is with Israel and the US.
I had a respect for DW from my childhood that they will publish news or report based on truth but in this report should be more research based. You just give the responsibility to a specific country on behalf of another. I wish news and media should be free and fare.
I believe it is dangerous to assume that Iran won't get involved directly, it might even come in with Turkey, Russia, China, South Africa, Ethiopia, Brazil, and other countries.
lmao China is about to become the biggest economy they wouldn't wanna be involved in the Middle East and they want Taiwan second turkey is part of NATO so is Israel and the United States Russia is already at war with Ukrain and is having trouble getting Ukraine south Africa don't wanna be involved same with Brazil they had no involvement really at all they are natural.
I feel this is a really important and neglected topic, especially how the two states went from friendly to hostile relations. Which makes it even more sad, that the video doesn’t explain why they are enemies. Instead it just describes the current situation
They are enemies because of the Iranian revolution in 1979, when the former Shah of Iran was forced to flee his country. The government of the Shah of Iran was friendly, and the subsequent governments have all been hostile.
@@72Yonatan so this obviously true, but it doesn’t explain the why part. It’s just stating the facts instead of examining and explaining why Iran is part of a conflict mainly between Israel and pan-arabists/Sunni Arabs, while being neither Arab or Sunni.

It is the equivalent of saying that North Korea became the enemy of the US after it got a communist government instead of explaining that it was initially rooted in the US' containment strategy opposing global communism and currently is based North Korea's aims of achieving nuclear capabilities to secure it's own survival, with a destabilising influence in a geopolitically important region for the US.

@@newmoon1448 and that made iran the only nuclear power with functioning warheads. you have to admit, that was smart and placed the persian empire on top of the world again, lol
But did you forget the 1953 coup d'etat and how USA took out Mohammad Mosaddegh elected by the Iranian people to put the Shah so he depleted Iran and gave it to America?? You always start your stories in the third season, start from season one always from season 1 😅
We are taught to hate thru misinformation. Fact is we destroyed a good government ,and put in charge an evil man that neglected the people. Then when the Iranian people had enough they revolted. Carter gave that man amnesty in America. The Iranians wanted him for war crimes hence 1979 hostage situation.
They skipped the actual reason so it was never meant to be fair. The actual reason for the conflict is that in 1953 the US overthrew the democratically elected government of Iran and installed a brutal dictator who killed 10s of thousands of Iranians. The US kept this brutal dictator in power for 23 years until he was overthrown. This is why Iranians hate Americans. Israel is the US's proxy in the Middle East which is why they are against Israel.
The differences between Sunnis and Shiites arose due to political disagreement, and it was not the differences between Sunnis and Shiites that created the dispute. When politics meets, the differences become minor

Imagine if Iran was still a Zoroastrian country today. We India, Iran, Israel would have been great friends and the oldest civilizations in the world. India and Israel are still there as friends but a certain someone is missing.
BREAKING NEWS 🇮🇷 It is now confirmed that Iran has told the United States that it can avoid a direct strike on Israel by signing a permanent ceasefire deal in Gaza. It should also be noted that Israel has given its negotiating team a stronger mandate and has withdrawn its troops from southern Gaza.
@David-hz2id: Bravo David. Congratulation for your well informed comment!... So far your comment is the only & the first one which makes a sensible, realistic. thoughtful meaning. Thank you very much. 👍👏👍👏
to be honest, Iranian street has been absolutly silent in comparison to EU streets about palestine, which I think is good but the video you assembeled is from couple of years ago not this year
Call me old-fashioned, but the differences are much more historical than geopolitical. They are rooted in biblical (and other ancient) accounts, and the separation of the Hebrew people and Arab tribes starting with Isaac and Ishmael. Biblically it says that there would be emnity between the two people groups. But most of the unbelieving world does not take biblical accounts seriously, so the world will not find a solution or really understand humanities' future path, or the 'why' on its own.
I would addressed why no one seems to like the Palestinians. Yes, many people are protesting the war in Gaza but the response from other Arab countries has been pretty mild given the devastation. Beyond rhetoric, there has been virtually no response from Egypt, Saudi Arabia, the Gulf States. Iran doesn't seem to doing any thing more than sticking a finger in the eye of Israel and the United States. Even Hezbollah who one would think would rise up has only launched a few token missiles. It seems as though most would like the Palestinians to just disappear. It took a non-Arab country, South Africa, to bring forth a charge of genocide to the International Court of Justice.
The video starts wit the iran pipeline but selectively decides not to mention that the shah isntalled by the west for western interests to take oil out of iran.
Israel must be the leader of the Middle East because it is the Holy Land. Israel is the Earth's heart. Is it not about what Iran is thinking of doing? It is about God's most precious Land. Respect God's reservation. .

You need not fight. You only watch. Those nations who are against Israel, will fight each other, while Israel watches. Read> 2 Chronicles 20
[15] He said, “Listen carefully, all [you people of] Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem, and King Jehoshaphat. The Lord says this to you: ‘Be not afraid or dismayed at this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God’s. [16] Go down against them tomorrow. Behold, they will come up by the ascent of Ziz, and you will find them at the end of the river valley, in front of the Wilderness of Jeruel. [17] You need not fight in this battle; take your positions, stand and witness the salvation of the Lord who is with you, O Judah and Jerusalem. Do not fear or be dismayed; tomorrow go out against them, for the Lord is with you.’”

THE REAL REASON FOR THIS CONFLICT ------ “And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.” Genesis 3:15
The coast and hinterland in antiquity was known as Canaan the land where Jesus was born. Attested by Egyptian and Assyrian records but no mention of Palestine. The people called the Country Eretz Israel, the land of Israel, using the names Israel and Judah to designate the two Kingdoms split after the death of King Solomon (Suleiman)…The Judge must be very wise and sober not to give what belongs to one to the other or vice-versa. Israel was gracious enough to offer this land to the “Palestines” as an independent state but they refused. They want everything. Just because a kid throws a tantrum and cries the loudest doesn’t mean they should have another’s Toy that does not belong to them.
Come back to the Lord Jesus Christ. Love and obey Him. Please do not shout free Palestine. It will get worse to you. It will gain free of buildings, food and electricity. More hunger and crying faces. Blessings to those who blesses Israel. And curses to those who cursed Israel.,..,
calling for the destruction of a state is not against the main religion of the state. People really need to understand this before trying to explain a conflict.
Why is Iran an enemy of Israel, America, England, France, Germany, etc.?! Because Iran is the only country that was never colonized. When the colonialists dominated the whole world and it was Iran's turn, they made a revolution. Iranians succeeded in liberating their country and now they are trying to liberate others as well.
this was a good video in terms of accuracy on parts of the conflict, maps, visuals, and current events. more detail is needed to explain animosities as well as how the friendship between the two countries--and two peoples--has changed over the past 50 years.

Why is man destined for self-destruction... is Peace too Expensive and War too cheap
Well said
We stand with Iran
Iranian minds is highly radicalized. The mentality has to be dealt with. This mentality is the problem!!
Wonder why(
its sad tht a civilisational state like iran care so much about religion. islam can act in strange ways.
Zionizm?????
'Any of them'-ism. @@sahinozkan199
Guys this is just a chat why bring religion into it. There may be neither of the two the way they are fighting
How Israel was created , by which country? Why in the middle-east you should explain.
Read the Bible...you might learn something about Israel on your own instead of trusting the "news."
or read the Quran, would work too.
Imagine if Iran was still a Zoroastrian country today.
We India, Iran, Israel would have been great friends and the oldest civilizations in the world.
India and Israel are still there as friends but a certain someone is missing.
religion is not the problem at play here but politics dont mix the two
Israeil was not exist as a country
Delusional
@@personatworkLMAOOO!!! Religion has everything to do with this. 😂
BREAKING NEWS 🇮🇷
It is now confirmed that Iran has told the United States that it can avoid a direct strike on Israel by signing a permanent ceasefire deal in Gaza.
It should also be noted that Israel has given its negotiating team a stronger mandate and has withdrawn its troops from southern Gaza.
West Did mess about Middle East , nobody else to blame it , need to leave this Region alone !!
The title of this video should read:
Why the “Mullas” and Israel are enemies? Because the Iranian people are of different opinion.
@David-hz2id: Bravo David. Congratulation for your well informed comment!... So far your comment is the only & the first one which makes a sensible, realistic. thoughtful meaning. Thank you very much. 👍👏👍👏
@@Savash50 Thank you.
The entire region is just terrible.
I agree I m glad I'm far away from there
to be honest, Iranian street has been absolutly silent in comparison to EU streets about palestine, which I think is good but the video you assembeled is from couple of years ago not this year
The winners in the competition for the biggest brainwashed population supporting Palestinians are Turkey and Jordan, not the US/EU.
because people in EU are protesting against their govt support Israel.
Iran is not
@@AksarallahPeople in Turkey can not safely protest against their dictator, but they are allowed to be antisemites and hate Israel😢
Shame on you that you think silence in the face of genocide is a good thing.
For What its worth. My Dad was in the middle east in ww2. In Syria. Palestine and Egypt. Now. For what? Thankfully. Hes now in heaven.
Thanks for covering the statement in the title.
Weird you mentioned Natanz without mentioning Stuxnet.
Call me old-fashioned, but the differences are much more historical than geopolitical. They are rooted in biblical (and other ancient) accounts, and the separation of the Hebrew people and Arab tribes starting with Isaac and Ishmael. Biblically it says that there would be emnity between the two people groups. But most of the unbelieving world does not take biblical accounts seriously, so the world will not find a solution or really understand humanities' future path, or the 'why' on its own.
True goes deeper than just political and economical
Hmmm something is missing….
Oh THE CONTEXT 😮
Did not explain why?
Proud of our indigenous South African brothers and sisters! Im proud that my children are proudly South African!
I would addressed why no one seems to like the Palestinians. Yes, many people are protesting the war in Gaza but the response from other Arab countries has been pretty mild given the devastation. Beyond rhetoric, there has been virtually no response from Egypt, Saudi Arabia, the Gulf States. Iran doesn't seem to doing any thing more than sticking a finger in the eye of Israel and the United States. Even Hezbollah who one would think would rise up has only launched a few token missiles. It seems as though most would like the Palestinians to just disappear. It took a non-Arab country, South Africa, to bring forth a charge of genocide to the International Court of Justice.
We love iran 🇮🇷♥️🇮🇷 all over the world.
I feel like I learn more with you guys than I did in college lol!! An absolute masterpiece! Thank you for your hard work!
The video starts wit the iran pipeline but selectively decides not to mention that the shah isntalled by the west for western interests to take oil out of iran.
Send all the PALESTINIAN To IRAN TO BE ONE OF THEM AND BE BROTHERS AS ONE.
PALESTINIAN NEW VOUNTRY IS IRAN
Israel isn't that powerful it can't fight iran funny fact whole NATO countries can't fight alone in the battlefield
Fun fact Iran would get annihilated by Israel if every other space in the world was uninhabited but passable
Including that big uncle
It’s not medieval, the war is economic not physical now in 21 centuries
Israel has nuclear weapons
@@colincocks1335 so what??
Soleimani was talking tough I wonder what happened 🤔
He was shown the way to the underworld where he is serving for me now
@@kingofdevils
As Soleimaniac
Israel will never mess with Iran directly.
They know the consequences would not be in their favor.😊
🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Israel must be the leader of the Middle East because it is the Holy Land. Israel is the Earth's heart. Is it not about what Iran is thinking of doing? It is about God's most precious Land. Respect God's reservation. .
Who told you so
Woah don’t even try to hide your supremacist mentality 😂 there’s no such thing as a “holy land”.
And now Iran is already attacked Israel
What is the real reason ?
Before i even watched or attempt to watch. I knew this channel is not going to give a true account of this situation, and i wasnt disappointed. I cant even begin to count how many disinformation they spew .
Who else is here trying to understand why iran attack israel and why iran defend palestine against israel.
Because Israel attacked Iranian embassy in Damascus and killed 7 people. And why wouldn't anyone in their right mind defend Palestine against Israel?
You need not fight. You only watch. Those nations who are against Israel, will fight each other, while Israel watches.

2 Chronicles 20
[15] He said, “Listen carefully, all [you people of] Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem, and King Jehoshaphat. The Lord says this to you: ‘Be not afraid or dismayed at this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God’s.
[16] Go down against them tomorrow. Behold, they will come up by the ascent of Ziz, and you will find them at the end of the river valley, in front of the Wilderness of Jeruel.
[17] You need not fight in this battle; take your positions, stand and witness the salvation of the Lord who is with you, O Judah and Jerusalem. Do not fear or be dismayed; tomorrow go out against them, for the Lord is with you.’”
Amplified Bible (AMP)
#,..,
Well these two guys were wrong. Iran became involved….
Great analysis.
who are all these groupies thanking DW for excellent reporting and objectivity - when it's obviously not true here? Does DW hire bots to improve viewers' response metrics?
Exactly 😂
M0$$@d bots are all over DW, Fox news, and Sky News (especially Sky News Australia). I’m sure they’d be reading this now if it’s not shadow-deleted.
What did they say that wasn't true?
Iran will not directly involve war with Isreal. If so then USA will defend.
Already USA is involved in the war by supplying weapons to Israel
The US that ran away from Afghanistan 😂
@@RoyalBlue292
Everyone rums away from the Afghans.
Afghanistan is not called "graveyard of Empires" for nothing.
The Brits, Sovjets and Americans and who knows who had their beliefs :) changed in Afghanistan.
@@RoyalBlue292 You are right - they start, see and then run away
Coming from April 2024, this video was a total waste of time because Iran is now involved
Why don't Iran leave Israel alone who do you think you are you love Allha I love Jesus
Wow I have to applaud the production value you guys put into this video. Really made Iran look like a boogeyman
Why don't you make a report on the US intransigence support of America to Israel?
Please map out the Eastern Congo (DRC) conflict as well.
America confiscated weapons sent from Iran to Yemen maybe you should state that when saying iran denies sending them weapons
God bless Iran
The experts got it wrong when they predict iran won't directly engage with israel.
Congrats on being mentioned on MSNBC Ari Melber's show. It was quite unexpected! Keep up the good work!
Western sahara and morocco
The problem was the Iranian revolution in the 1970s.
Beautiful work 👏 DW.
THE REAL REASON FOR THIS CONFLICT ------ “And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.” Genesis 3:15
The coast and hinterland in antiquity was known as Canaan the land where Jesus was born. Attested by Egyptian and Assyrian records but no mention of Palestine. The people called the Country Eretz Israel, the land of Israel, using the names Israel and Judah to designate the two Kingdoms split after the death of King Solomon (Suleiman)…The Judge must be very wise and sober not to give what belongs to one to the other or vice-versa. Israel was gracious enough to offer this land to the “Palestines” as an independent state but they refused. They want everything. Just because a kid throws a tantrum and cries the loudest doesn’t mean they should have another’s Toy that does not belong to them.
Liars.
you're commenting on dw comment section
it's already one of your own kind
Khomeini... he became monster😅
The Bias is unreal
And know Israel and Iran have both struck each other in an escalation of the war. Just wild times.
Wow how innocently you ignored the atrocities of Isreal against all neighbors as well as the native of Palestin.
Come back to the Lord Jesus Christ. Love and obey Him.
Please do not shout free Palestine. It will get worse to you. It will gain free of buildings, food and electricity. More hunger and crying faces.
Blessings to those who blesses Israel. And curses to those who cursed Israel.,..,
I guess that argument doesn’t apply anymore because Iran just did ….
Now Iran is involved. 13 April 2024 -
calling for the destruction of a state is not against the main religion of the state. People really need to understand this before trying to explain a conflict.
Thanks for the information,
The Lord says, I will bless those who blessed you (Israel), and I will curse those who cursed you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻.
lol so a book written by je,ws gives them favorable conditions ? what i shock .
Kind of convenient that hamas attacked Israel when Israel and Saudi Arabia were close to working a deal. But Iran wasn't gonna have that.
Iran has a large Azeri population. Not a small point. Internal Iranian issues are a major factor in the mess.
Why is Iran an enemy of Israel, America, England, France, Germany, etc.?!
Because Iran is the only country that was never colonized. When the colonialists dominated the whole world and it was Iran's turn, they made a revolution. Iranians succeeded in liberating their country and now they are trying to liberate others as well.
Looks like someone paid DW for unloading this video
this was a good video in terms of accuracy on parts of the conflict, maps, visuals, and current events. more detail is needed to explain animosities as well as how the friendship between the two countries--and two peoples--has changed over the past 50 years.
No it wasn't. This was one sided Western/Israeli narrative.
