On what do you base this on? THe SAVAK was an instrument to curb communist and islamist subversion. They may have been brutal in their choice of methods, but that's probably the way to deal with terrorists and communists. There was nothing particulary Islamic about them.
Carter thought he could do business with Khomeini because they both were religious men.
.
you are 100% correct. The Savak while Muslims tried to subvert the communists, islamic fundamendalists.
Is it not interesting that when Iran & the Shah fought them it was oppression of 'human rights' but now that we do the same it is a 'war on terror'?
Hypocrisy at its best.
Oh, I would be happy if we (USA, Israel) would use more of the SAVAK methods against Islamic Terrorists and communist traitors. The War on Terror is done too nice and political correct.
A lamppost seems too good for Jimmy. At first I thought of substituting a meat hook, but decided that was too good as well. Old Peanut Brain couldn't even get the trains to run on time. Better justice would be to hang him from a fire hydrant, as the only American in history vulnerable to such.
