Why is Iran meddling in the mideast?

[Parthianshot]

Before you jump at my throat, I know that the saudis and recently the turks also have an expansionist agenda, but in all honesty why is Iran even wasting its time trying to spread its influence in these mideastern countries? Theres literally nothing in it for it. No benefits whatsoever. Iran now is giving billions to hezbollah, to assad, to the houthis etc... while getting zero in return, why?

Why are we even enemies with israel, who puts the sunni arabs in check? Why cant we not have an economic partnership with america, russia and china at the same time?

We havent benefit AT ALL from such policies, instead have had sanctions put on us and limited our economic opportunities.

Only people who would support such an agenda would be shia fanatics who simply dont care about the country.

I suggest we stay out of international politics, mind our own business, tell others to do the same , focus on fixing the screws in our own society and do business with everyone.

We have enough land and resources to live like kings. All we need are better leaders.

Ooooh really? Then why doesnt India combat u.s policy and risk getting sanctioned and its economy isolated? Theresreally no reason to have a grudge against the west, europe, america, or anyone for that matter, even the arabs, russia or china.

If it benefited us economically, produced jobs etc.. then I would agree with you, but guess what? It dont.

We already got sanctioned in 1999 for 10 years because of nuclear weapons buddy...
Our politicians really did a great job at that time and people are motivated even though we faced some harsh reality...

Frankly speaking we have grown better during sanctions...

Highly doubt you were as Isolated or sanctioned as Iran. Now you are doing business with everyone and improving your country. Theres no point in isolating yourself.

Parthian when the name changes to Persia can we be part of it ?

Whats the point of doing bussiness with everyone when the economy is not growing...

Concerning Middle East? Hell even all of the Indian subcontinent?

Too much religion.

Solution: Scientific Temper and Rationality.

They have money and oil...
So they create their own problems

And United states always puts finger in providing solutions...

I think their immense oil wealth just allows them to taper over their social ills. Never developing the Human resource capability with education, technology etc. (don't get me wrong, Iran has produced good scientific talent).

Anyway, I take my leave.
