Best Answer

Iran IS in the Middle East.

It has exerted a strong political pull recently in Iraqi and Afghan Elections, supports guerrilla/terrorist/Islamist organizations like Hezbollah and Hamas, and antagonizes Saudi Arabia and Bahrain due to its support of Shi'a empowerment in those countries.

What is the eisenhower doctrine-?

President Eisenhower gave a special message to the congress on the situation in the Middle East during the Suez War to prevent the Soviet Union's attempt to enter Egypt and become an influence. Egypt's president intended to play the US against the Soviet Union in order to build his military power base and influence the Middle East region. The Doctrine failed in a sense but Nasser's deteriorated relationship with the Soviets led the US to switch to policy of accommodation. Now the US has the military influence in the Middle East. Oil was also an influence for the US and its allies.
