The dispute between thetwo countries began many years ago where the Iranian government wanted to break away fromthe exploitation of Iran led by Muhammad Musaddeq, until the Iranian revolution in 1979 led byAyatullah Khomaeni to make Iran a state of the Islamic Republic of Iran and an anti-UnitedStates state until it culminated in the assassination of General Qasem Soleimani in 2020,General Qasem Soleimani is the most respected general in Iran and the leader of the Al-Qudsforce which is also the most respected force in Iran, The assassination committed by the UnitedStates against General Qasem Soleimani is related to the interests of the United States, toproduce appropriate answers this research uses two concepts namely foreign policy andoffensive realism, The method used is qualitative explanative by taking data from books,scientific journals, and websites.
