Iran and Israel don’t have a border dispute, don’t compete over natural resources or trade, and don’t support rival sides in a civil war. It’s not even an “ideological rivalry” as some mistakenly assert.

It’s a conflict resulting from the singular theological belief of Iranian clerics that Israel’s existence is an affront to god and must be destroyed.
