What happened in 1979 is this:

From there, it marked the end of "Imperial State of Iran/Pahlevi's Iran" and marked the beginning of "Islamic Republic of Iran".
The new leader then adopted an f-you stance against western powers and western 'agents' in Middle East.
Particularly; State of Israel, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and (back then) Republic of Iraq (Saddam Hussein).
Yes Saddam Hussein were once loyal puppet of Washington.
It then marked the beginning of Iran receiving it's first 'punishment' (among many), invasion from Iraq.

As for the 'why' the new leader adopted f-you stance, this video might explain the origin.

Thus it's too far and actually irrelevant to tie up today's Iran vs Israel conflict with ancient Roman vs Persian conflict.
For many centuries, the relationship between Jewish and Persian people are warm.
The only people explicitly mentioned with the title of "Yahweh's Mossiach", which then become "Kristos" in greek and become "Christ" in english, inside the Tanakh, is actually a Persian king named Cyrus. (Isaiah 45)
Isaiah 45 also explained why.
Cyrus is actually worth to be discussed here, since he's among the very rare of ancient king who adopted the stance of 'tolerance'.
Yet through many events happened throughout ages, there's always similar pattern that came up.
It always started with "We are superior than them" attitude and as Ra mentioned it's among the 'signature mark' of Service to Self.
The "We are superior than them" then drive the act of intolerance as part of conquering and putting 'others' beneath 'us'.
