Are the conflicts in Israel-Palestine & Iran related? Or are they two separate things? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

hi I'm kinda ignorant when it comes to current events related to politics, can you please tell me if the Israel Palestine conflict has any relation to the Iran thing or are they two separate things happening right now?

I saw this car with this message on his window and it occurred to me I have no idea what's going on in the world. I just hear things in the news and hardly comprehend them and ignore them. My definition of ignorant is IGNORing things I don't understand.

Except the IAEA has repeatedly said that Iran has no nuclear weapons and doesn't appear to be trying to make them. But Israel and the US obviously don't care. Iran being on the verge of having nuclear weapons has been a recurring boogeyman that they keep pushing as a reason to invade and threaten. There's a lot wrong with Iran and its leadership, but nuclear weapons is unlikely to be a real issue.
