I don’t need to tell myself.

They’ve been screaming it at us for almost 50 years.

Idiot.

It was for more than 50 years, I'm afraid. It way 73 years, to be specific.

They've been screaming at us since our CIA supported the coup that overthrew their elected president in 1953.

They were screaming at us when we supported Iraq during the Iran-Iraq War, when 183,000+ Iranians were killed. (We killed them by "proxy".)

They were screaming at us after we gave Captain Kangaroo of the USS Vincennes a medal after he shot down an Iranian airliner.

They have been screaming at us for a while.

Hi L. Once again, you speak the truth. When i survey my synapses from 1979 to this year, I wonder what some were taught when they sat in an American history class in school if they were not around when the Ayatollah took over from the Shah in 1978-9. Then, I look at their “joining” date of 2019 like Captain Walker, and realize that it is important to know history even if not educated. Personally, I know that those that are ignorant of history are quick to show it, so I usually don’t try to correct them. But I admire those, like you, that do, sand keep the record accurate. Maybe Captain Walker was cutting class the weeks they taught about the Iranian conflict. Thank you.
