The labeling of states as extremist is subjective and driven by perspectives. The United States' designation as a terrorist organization by Iran highlights differing views on extremism. Terrorism labeling can expedite military action and financial measures. The complexity of dealing with countries like Iran, known for funding terrorist groups, raises questions on political strategies like sanctions. Iran's use of proxy wars mirrors historical approaches by global powers like the US, China, Russia, and Saudi Arabia. Proxy conflicts are prevalent globally, as seen in Libya, Syria, Yemen, Ukraine, and the Hamas-Israel conflict.
