The AIC says in 2000 it helped Madeleine Albright, the then US secretary of state, formulate a landmark expression of regret for mistaken US policies towards Iran, including the 1953 Anglo-American coup against Mohammad Mossadegh, the popular prime minister, which restored to power the autocratic, pro-American shah.

Barf! Speaking of mistaken US policies towards Iran, Maddie Halfbright should have apologized for Carter's betrayal of the Shah 1978/1979, instead of apologizing for Ike's brilliant Coup of the 28th Mordad 1953, which has to be regarded as one the greatest US (and Iranian) foreign policy successes of the Cold War! I guess Albright would have welcomed a Communist Iran under Soviet guidance!

Also what devils are riding this Administration to legitimize the islamic regime by supporting the AIC leashdogs!?

Don’t you think that the coup against Mussadeq is one of the reasons for Iran’s current situation? For example, the 3ulama2 were able to co-opt nationalism & Mussadeq as a martyr after his fall. It also inflamed anti-Western sentiment.

Not arguing, just want your opinion?
