IMO, ALL of the problems we have with IRAN are directly attributable to Jimmah Carter. He let Shah Pavlavi fall to the radical Islamists.
not all The state department called Iran a terrorist nation the worst in the world. They threatened to wipe Israeli off the map and defat the great satan, us. Bush avowed Iraq.
Obama said he would sit down with them and make nice. He gave them money to continue exporting terrorism and to develop the bomb and ICBM’s i argue these were both far worse than what Carter did.
