Report: U.S. Missteps Led To Shah's Overthrow All Things Considered, October 18, 2008 · Scholars who study the Iranian Revolution of 1979 have paid a lot of attention to the internal factors that precipitated revolt. Now, a new study argues that the United States secretly helped create the conditions that led to the overthrow of its ally, the Shah. Andrew Scott Cooper, who wrote the report using previously classified information, talks about the mistakes that led to the demise of the Shah.

EVEryone who can read knows this to be true. You mean to tell me, these scholars just figured it out? Jimmy Carter is the source of the current anti Americanism in the world and the architect for our energy dependence and 911.

The audio is limited to events during the Ford administration, and blames a downturn in the Iranian economy on the Saudis flooding the oil market. I do not remember oil prices going down back then.

No mistakes, Carter knew precisely what he was doing.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Bingo. Just imagine how much fun the False Messiah is going to have f’ing everything up deliberately. He’ll make Carter look like George Washington.

[quickquiver]

Also out of the country presently. Huh?

[quickquiver]

Probably Libya.

This is what the McCain folks need to mention with regard to Joe Biden’s “tested” outburst. They need to portray Obama as the second coming of Jimmy Carter. From 10% unemployment, to inflation, to gas lines. Plus another, more critical screw-up with Iran. The parallels should frighten every American.

Barack 0bama is four more years of Jimmy Carter.

Maybe, after 11/4/08 the fabulous investigators @ NPR will discover that fatazz Teddy Kennedy and Jimmah Carter reached out to their friends in the USSR to help in defeating Ron Reagan? NPR, Democrats and ACORN all taxpayer funded enemies of the USA!

That was my thought when I read the headline. Didn't we know this when it happened?

[nikos1121]

Yes, and the media has convinced a fair number of Americans that a one term senator who achieved nothing substantial in the senate who is running on his smooth looks, satin voice and his race. Colin Powell and everyone else knows this.

McCain is the most qualified of the candidates for the job...

I just can't believe that Americans will in the end fall for this ruse.

Barak would be Jimmy Carter on steroids.

[Thane_Banquo]

Taking steroids would hurt 0bama with his limp-wristed constituency.

Obama & carter cartoons together says this, too
