The long-standing conflict between Israel and Palestine has gone far beyond the Middle East region and thus involves both internal and external political actors. Iran and the United States of America stand out among them. These two countries have sharply different positions and interests concerning the mentioned conflict. Both Iran and the US are trying to use the conflict between Israel and Palestine in the Middle East region for their own political interests. In particular, Iran aims to reinforce the position of the leading country in the region. The US is trying to strengthen its positions in the Middle East and therefore supports its strategic partner - Israel in this region. The opposing positions of these two countries towards the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, along with the other reasons, hinders the process of resolving the said conflict in a peaceful way.
