Transiting thru Iran
OK, here is the situation - I have two citizenships, one from US and second - from a country with visa free visit of Iran.
Couple hours ago I was researching options on Skypicker to fly to Turkey from KUL and came some really weird route thru Tehran the price tag of less than $200 one way.
Could anyone tell what are implications if I will transit thru Iran, while taking but not showing my US passport and instead showing my second passport at checkpoint?

Could a trip through Iran later prevent you from getting Global Entry or a job that requires a (USA) security clearance? In fact, what's the current rule on whether USA citizens are permitted (by the USA) to visit Iran?
