An interview with David Frost in 1979, 75 days after the Hostage Crisis
How the liberals and Commies helped overthrow one of the greatest allies of the US in the mideast
Forever linked in my mind with Jimmy Carter. Bleccch!
Google "Real Alternative", it's good stuff.
I won't use the Real Player spyware, either.
"That is what the Liberals say! and I believe you are here to repeat them!"
If you are going to label as liberal everyone who has concerns about allies who oppose our ideals then you're gonna have to go after many, many conservatives.
Saudi Arabia and Pakistan come to mind... Now I'm not saying that we turn against either of them but we should at least recognize that we are not really on the same side, we just have a common enemy. It's not the same thing.
We assisted! Huge understatement...we did all the heavy lifting and then stuck girly-man reza in his seat.
"In time and if necessary. Don'tcha think we should give diplomacy a chance? ;-)"
Yes. But the situation is more critical than it was the Shah's day.
Thanks for that link and book. I shall explore them.
I wonder how you, as a pacifist, are on FR
Well, I would certainly prefer Reza to the nutcases who have followed him. Wouldn't you? Or, for that matter, the anti-American Leftist who preceeded him who we ushered into obscurity.
That wtc911 loves Mullahs and Carter!
Don't waste your time with him/her plz
I second the suggestion for Real Alternative
you can download it lots of places but I trust the Videohelp site for safe links

Anyone who doesn't understand the role of the British government and the CIA under the Eisenhower administration in toppling the duly-elected Mossadegh government of Iran in 1953 is totally ignorant of the subject. This country's dealing with Iran over 50+ years is one of the primary reasons why people all over the Middle East regard the U.S. as thoroughly hypocritical and untrustworthy when one jack@ss after another in the White House stands up and offers some kind of silly pontifications about "freedom," "making the world safe for democracy," etc.
And your point is?
excuse me?!
"Duly elected" with huge amounts of Soviet money and support.
My relatives engineered a coup to overthrow the then communist dictator of Iran.
So let's topple the U.S. government while we're at it -- considering how much money from Communist China has infected our own political process.
Jimmuh Cattah is a senile old man, and getting more so by the minute. What a hate-filled idiot.
