Iranian Regime’s War on America: Four Decades of Targeting U.S. Forces and Citizens | AJC

pins on iran map

Since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, Iran has waged a decades-long campaign of violence against the United States, using terror proxies like Hezbollah and the Popular Mobilization Forces to target U.S. troops, diplomats, and civilians across the Middle East and beyond. This ongoing threat includes deadly attacks on U.S. bases in Iraq, Syria, and Jordan, as well as missile strikes like the June 23, 2025, assault on Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, in retaliation for U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites.
