Firstly, at the time the letter was sent there was a very moderate president and a reformist parliament in charge

There was a reformist president, but not in charge. Khatamei could not enact any of his reforms, and the mullahs remained firmly in charge. And that "reformist" parliament consisted of candidates approved by the mullahs - who scrubbed any real reformers from the ballot.

And thirdly, you need to investigate the role of the British in Holocaust better

No, I don't, and you are turning the subject from the causes of the whole war. At one point, FDR asked Churchill what they should call the war, and Churchill growled, "the unnecessary war". It could have been stopped at far lower cost had the democracies mustered the will to stop Hitler in 1934 or 1936 or 1938.

They chose instead to believe that negotiations would save them the trouble. Hitler played them like a violin.
