Iran/Persia was a secular Monarchy for thousands of years just because we assisted the Shah of Iran with his Monarchy doesn’t mean that we forced them to accept a form of government they’ve had for 3,000 years and a Secular one to boot. Isn’t that a tad bit arrogant too when a leader would be close to the United States to bash him? He’s probably more pro-US than most US liberals.
“Hes probably more pro-US than most US liberals.”
That’s not saying much given there is no such thing as a
pro-US liberal. This Reza guy is only pro-US out of convenience. I think he must have gotten some inside
knowledge that the US was going to overthrow the leadership
of Iran and he wants to get his foot in the door on getting
put in as the new boss. He’s just an opportunist.
