The US wants to control the (oil fields of the) Middle East and the independence of Iran is a constant source of irritation. The Iranian goverment is disgusting but no more disgusting than many governments allied to the US.
Iran is a volatile post-revolutionary society. Given time, the Iranian people will themselves sort out and liberalise their government.
