US actions in Iraq and Afghanistan cause people to think that the US can resort to military measures
against Iran as well. However the US invasion of Iraq and the uncertainties prevailing because of the
invasion make analysts to question the necessity of military operations, because it might bring further
uncertainties to region and to world politics. In this paper, it is argued that the US priorities in the Middle
East are not well-defined and its policies are contaminated with cultural misperceptions, as seen in the
case of the Iran’s nuclear program. Historical, technical and international law aspects of Iran’s nuclear
program would be surveyed and the US policies regarding Iran’s nuclear program would be analyzed. The
US interests in the region would be discussed and the most known clichés regarding Iran and US relations
would be questioned. It is the argument that US policies in the Middle East are not well-calculated in
terms of the US global realpolitik concerns; and current US policies in the region harm the US interests in
global stage. Thus, the US confrontation with Iran makes the potential cooperation opportunities with the
Middle Eastern countries missed.
