Here’s a little help:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran#Late_Modern_Era_.281921.E2.80.93.29
Operation Ajax?
SAVAK?
Supporting the poison gas using dictator who is at war with you?
Bringing back into Iraq the very same oil companies whose ejection prompted operation Ajax?
ML:
Don’t forget that the statement “supporting the poison gas-using dictator who is at war with you” applies to both Iran and Iraq. It is rarely pointed out that we gave military intelligence to Iran as part of the hostage ransoms, and then, in a Rube Goldberg sort of foreign policy, turned around and gave similar intelligence to Iraq. Heh.
Hmmm, yeah, what *does* Iran have to feel defensive about?
