Apparently you are Iranian and I am pleased to communicate with you. I read (long before the internet)a book that stated Ford had released billions to the Shah to upgrade a waterfront, deep water port. When Jimmuh came in, he dispatched some businessmen, friends of his, to Iran where they told the government they were here to "consult" and that they wanted 20% of the foriegn aid. The Iranians realized they had no input fot the project and told them to get lost. THIS was the catalyst of the animosity between Carter and the Shah.Any knowledge?

You are totally right!

I heard this from my father and now it seems to be very true

This Bible-Beating Baptist Bunco Artist was a crook in Georgia, and just as much of one in the WH. The fact that he is revered as a saint in certian quarters is a triumph of the PR man's art.

He is a vicious, vindictive, highly partisan, little, micro-managing jackass who couldn't find his arse with both hands and a mirror. The Georgian Mafia he ran probably taught Bill Clinton a thing or two. You want the book on Jimmuh? Find out what Admiral Rickover had to say about him.
