  • In July 2015, the US, Iran, and five other world powers came to an agreement concerning

  • Iran’s nuclear proliferation. While President Obama has promised that this deal would cut

  • off Iran’s ability to develop nuclear weapons, Israel’s Prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu,

  • openly disagrees. In fact, Israel and Iran have had a long and tumultuous relationship

  • since the late 1970s, which has only progressively gotten worse. So, why do Israel and Iran hate

  • each other?

  • Well, it all started in 1947, when the United Nations held a vote to split the Palestinian

  • region into Israel and Palestine. At the time, Iran was one of 13 countries to reject the

  • proposal. Once the Israeli state had been established, Iran voted against their admission

  • into the UN. However, Iran soon became one of the first Muslim-majority states to unofficially

  • recognize Israel’s sovereignty in 1950. In fact, the two countries ended up sharing

  • a close relationship due to Iran’s secular leadership from 1925 to 1979. The two countries

  • had thriving trade, and even combined military forces to develop new technologies.

  • But everything fell apart in 1979 when the Shah of Iran was overthrown by religious leader,

  • Ayatollah Khomeini. Iran became an Islamic Republic, ruled by Islamic law. Khomeini quickly

  • severed ties with Israel, as well as the United States, calling themlittleandbig

  • Satan. Still, during the Iran-Iraq war, Israel supplied Iran with military equipment, which

  • has been considered crucial in Iran’s victory. Yet anti-Israeli rhetoric continued and increased

  • within Iran. Notably, in 1985, an Egyptian man murdered 7 Israelis on vacation in Egypt.

  • In response, Iran issued a stamp featuring a picture of the murderer, and named a street

  • in their capital after him, glorifying him as a hero and a martyr.

  • Their relationship continued to deteriorate, with further Iranian leaders calling Israel’s

  • existence illegal and parasitic, and for it to be eliminated. The most significant break-down

  • came as President Ahmadinejad was elected in 2005. He called for the end of the Israeli

  • state, and supported the Iranian-born anti-Israeli terrorist organization, Hezbollah. He is also

  • a known Holocaust denier.

  • In recent years, a number of Iranian nuclear scientists have been assassinated by Israeli

  • intelligence agents in order to stop nuclear development. At the same time, the US and

  • Israel have stopped a number of assassinations of Israeli and Jewish targets by Iranian agents.

  • In 2012, several Iranians were arrested after a plot to bomb diplomatic officials was discovered.

  • Today, tensions have centered on Israel’s fear of Iran obtaining nuclear weapons. Although

  • Iran has repeatedly promised to never develop a nuclear missile, they have also repeatedly

  • been caught attempting to do just that. With Iran having operated as a religious state

  • since 1979, there is little hope of the two making peace anytime soon.

  • Iran’s nuclear proliferation is a hot button issue with a storied history behind it. To
