One of my classmates in my undergrad years was Iranian. His parent fled in 1979 and came to the US. If you wanted to see him get seriously p*ssed, just say “Ayatollah Khomeni” or “Jimmy Carter.” He’d go ballistic about the Ayatollah “destroying persian pride and culture” and “Jimmy Carter being a liar who betrayed the Shah.” Then, he’d wax poetic about the Shah. He would talk about a sincere hope that the “evil mongrels” who ruled his country would be overthrown and fed to dogs.
Sounds like my kinda guy.
