The Iranian Government's 40 Years of Hatred Towards America
The Gatestone Institute ^ | May 16, 2019 | Majid Rafizadeh

It was Iran, not the US, that breached international law by carrying out the US Embassy takeover in Tehran.... It was also Iran, not the US, that immediately began using its proxies, such as Hezbollah, to commit terrorism and incite antagonism towards America.

Should the mullahs be appeased for killing thousands of Americans? For continually taking Americans as hostages? For being the leading executioner of children in the world? For ranking the first in the world per capita when it comes to executing people? For being the world's top state sponsor of terrorism? For making every possible effort to damage US national security and scuttle US foreign policy objectives?

The Iranian government's hatred towards the US often seems the most important reason for its existence. As long as the ruling mullahs remain in power, the Islamic Republic will continue its acts of terror and deep antagonism against Americans, their Sunni neighbors, the lands they try to control -- such as Iraq, Syria, Yemen, parts of Gaza and Venezuela, Lebanon -- and the West.

The argument that the US must take an (apologetic stance) towards the theocratic establishment of Iran is beinghttp://america.aljazeera.com/opinions/2013/11/us-iran-apology-nuclearnegotiations.html">(repeatedly made) without the evidence of any effectiveness to back it up.

Former President Barack Obama (created) this policy, and insisted that it would be successful. Even as Iran ( flaunted) its disregard for the American government, as well as human life, President Obama would (continually) apologize to the Iranian leaders. He made it sound as if America was to blame for initiating the hatred that the Iranian government projects toward the United States.

Obama has to have been the most incompetent POTUS ever, even more so than Carter.

Jimmy Carter was really upset with the Shah because the Shah wasn’t quite as interested in Human Rights as Jimmy was.

And how did that work out for the world?

Obama was an illegitimate usurper.

He is PRECISELY why the founders put NATURAL born citizen in the Constitution.

One is only NATURALLY an American when one CANNOT be anything else.

Anyone born with more than ONE nationality is not NATURALLY an American.

Obama was born with THREE nationalities, British subject and Kenyan national from his father and US citizen from his mother and he possibly picked up Indonesian citizenship as well.

I believe he hid his college records because he was admitted to Occidental as an Indonesia exchange student.

Anyone whose Iran-USA timeline starts in 1979 is a liar or an idiot.

This story starts with the events that culminated in Operation Ajax.

When the US failed to act as a great power and severely discipline Iran for taking hostages in 1979, it legitimized and solidified the rule of the mullahs. The Mullahs went on to develop a nuclear industry, develop an imperialist military that has established a strategic presence in Iraq and Syria, and actually killed Americans with the IEDs furnished to American opponents in Afghanistan and Iraq. There are many senior military officers who served in Iraq and Afghanistan who would like nothing better than being the soldiers of an America acting like a great power.

Why wouldn’t they hate us? We support their enemies in the Mideast, whatever misdeeds they’re involved with.

Events in 1979 happened 26 years after Operation Ajax. People forget unless they’re haters to begin with. If installing the Shah was wrong then we shouldn’t reinstate his son.

Carter was upset with the Shah because he wouldn’t pay off on the bribes anymore.

Carter was not only an idiot, he was a greedy idiot.

The only long term solution to a society so anti American in nature is to defeat them utterly.

Operation Ajax.

http://www.coldwar.org/articles/50s/OperationAjax.asp

The Ayatollah would have never taken over without us installing an autocratic monarch and training his nut shocking secret police. Nothing we can do about 1953 now.

BUT we should stop and consider the wars we are creating for America in 2085 with the insane Sunni policies we are pushing on the world today. We operate on a 6 month event horizon.

“BUT we should stop and consider the wars we are creating for America in 2085 with the insane Sunni policies we are pushing on the world today. We operate on a 6 month event horizon.”

It’s set up exactly the way the satanic globalists want it to be set up. The revel in chaos and bloodshed.

It goes back well before that...Iran was the route through which we shipped weapons into Russia to fight the Nazis. And after WW2 the Russians didn’t really want to leave Iran and required some nudging.
