The United States supports Israel as a key ally in the region. The United States support for the State of Israel is the strongest of any of the US relations outside of NATO. It comes from a variety of sources. Israel has cooperated with the United States on diplomatic issues, military and intelligence exchanges, large amounts of trade, and significant technological investment. In addition there a numerous Americans who support the State of Israel because of religious convictions on top of the already-listed reasons.

The United States has strong antagonism towards Iran and does not even maintain diplomatic relations with the country. The tensions between the US and Iran are based on three major issues: (1) Iran's Nuclear Ambitions, (2) Iran's Numerous Human Rights Violations, (3) Particular Political Grievances Between the United States and Iran. The United States and most European states are very distrustful that Iran is engaging in a peaceful nuclear energy production program and believe that Iran intends to create nuclear weapons. The United States also categorically opposes Iran having a nuclear weapon given that Iran has expressed militancy towards and supported/founded militant groups that act throughout the Middle East. Iran is well-known for being a country which violates fundamental human freedoms and is quite proud for doing so. There are several grievances between Iran and Western countries, particularly Iran and the United States. Some of those grievances include:

  1. The Iranian Hostage Crisis in 1979
  2. Iran's financial support of Islamist groups that attacked US and French forces in the 1983 Beirut Barracks Bombing
  3. Iran's continual monetary and political support to the end of eliminating Israel
  4. Iran's antagonism towards the Arab Gulf countries
  5. Iran's support for Hezbollah, Hamas, and Palestinian Jihad -- all recognized terrorist organizations
  6. Iran's use of the al-Quds Expeditionary forces to attack Coalition Troops during the Iraq War.

Has there been a foreign policy since world war 1?

There is no "a" foreign policy. Every national political group - especially but not exclusively states - pursues it's own foreign policy. There has been countless stances of foreign policy before, during, and since World War One. You need to be more specific for a less general answer - say, inquiring about the foreign policy stance of the United States, or Russia, or some other nation.
