Ah yes. Reminds me of an Iranian I met at college just after the fall of the Shah. He was a Communist, and couldn't wait to get back to Iran. His "friends" had helped the Mullahs toss the Shah, but he wanted to go home so that he could take part in the REAL revolution which would throw out those Mullahs. No doubt if he went home he's long dead. Guess the Left never learns.

Ah yes, may I remind you that this is decades after the Shah fell and most of the young people in Iran are very pro American.

If you watched any of World Cup last year you saw a huge contingent of young people waving the Iranian flag with the Shah's emblem in the center.

A young Iranian begged my son to exchange his AMERICAN flag for an Iranian flag (without the Shah's emblem) After much pleading from the young man, my son gave him the American flag.

One of his friends might be Ahmadinewhackjob.
