MODERATORS
The radical Islamic revolutionaries were backed heavily by America during the Cold War as a check agaisnt Communism spreading to the Middle East. The current state of the Middle Eastern values is due to American Intervention in the region, because radical regious governments are better than Communist Governments in the eyes of Global Capital.

Counterpoint: the Ba'athists in Iraq were also heavily backed by America, even though they were pan-Arab Socialists.
...that were willing to start a war with leaning-towards-Russia Iran
The fact remains that America was supporting a socialist regime in a war against a theocracy - which really contradicts the claim made above that America was always supporting theocracies against left leaning regimes.
