It is amazing to me how much we have taught them both deliberately and unintentionally.

Relationships often change over time (hopefully/eventually for the better).

This is why Iran's Special Forces still wear US green berets
Iranian Special Forces operators have a lot of seemingly-coincidental uniform items... probably from the military tradition of being trained by US Green Berets.

Now a little more than a decade old, The Devil We Know by Robert Bair, a former CIA operative who spent time in the Middle East, it is still one of the best sources for first hand information about Iran. I wish I could find something more current and its equal. This article on Iran's Military Doctrine is the antithesis of Baer's work. It could have been written by a high school student from material gleaned from Internet searches. Personally, if I wanted to speculate on Iran's strategy, I would worry more about them sneaking nuclear devices into selected targets in Saudi Arabia and Israel and, if I were really paranoid, the United States. Although it is likely they will have primitive devices in the very new future if not already, but won't have ballistic missiles capable of delivering them reliably for several decades to come. They might even provide anonymous tips allowing one to be discovered to add an element of terror to their strategy.
