American Bullying of Iran

The United States is antagonizing Iran. I have heard countless "reports" and stories on NPR, CNN, and other news programs. A question to ask is, what is this money that the United States is using to fund a coup of the Iranian government? Should this government be concerned with trying to stage coups at this point in time, or at any time? What this reminds me of, somewhat, is what Antonia Fraser called Henry VIII's "Rough Wooing" of Scotland. Its repeated advances into Scottish territory, trying to stir the Scottish lords against James V and his mother, and pestering the Scots at whatever turn he could get. The United States is on a fatal course.
