The SAVAK was much more about Islam than western mores.

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.

To: SolidWood

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.
