Others view Carter as not playing any role in 78/79 as the admin expected the Shah to hold onto power. The Shah was hardly a progressive lead, he murdered, jailed the Iranian people, while selling the country’s resources to foreign companies, to the detriment of Iran.
At least Carter has been one of the only US presidents to be honest about Israel deliberately targeting civilian infrastructure, and killing civilians, in Gaza.
