Sure, but now the U.S. has to live with the consequences. The Iran/Iraq war cost Iran 1,000,000 lives. It makes it hard for Iranians to forgive and forget after that. The Taliban supported a faction that killed a few thousand Americans, and I am sure it will take more than just one generation before Americans will forgive them.

All things considered, it's pretty remarkable that many young Iranians are actually pro-America.
