Say You Want a Revolution?

By Amir Taheri

For almost a quarter of a century the United States and Iran, under its Khomeinist rulers, have been locked in a mini-version of the Cold War.

During that period Iranian agents seized and held more than 100 Americans as hostages, releasing them only after Teheran extracted concessions from Washington. Several hostages were murdered, including a US Marine colonel, hanged by the Hizbullah in Beirut, and the CIA station chief in Lebanon who was transferred to Teheran and died under torture during interrogation.

In the same period, Teheran organized terrorist attacks in which over 300 Americans, including 241 Marines, were killed in various parts of the Middle East.

Iran's Khomeinist regime has also acted as the principal opponent of all US-backed peace initiatives in the region. In 1982, Iran founded the Lebanese branch of the Hizbullah that, in time, emerged as the most active force against the "peace process" in the region.
