Thanks for the update. To answer your question, Yes, the Iranian Regime was “installed”. CIA under Carter did the topple. The Shah himself was “installed” to assist British Petroleum. CIA and our “special” relationship with UK - you know?

Well, the lease was up for renewal, Carter had his own ideas about what that renewal should be. Shah did not agree, so elements of our Govt. brought him down-he was warned, but did not roll over.

The news at the time did their part in whipping up a frenzy. The CIA advised the Shah’s military who might have saved him to stand down, and they did.

Carter was warned about the Ayatollah, but he said that as a religious man, he would be better to deal with or words to that effect. If you will study those years, there were a number of countries toppled-almost always started with Carter Admin criticizing their “human rights” record.

With what we now know about N. Korea, this installed regime may have had other similar purposes too. Have a great day. Catch you all later.
