I will never understand why Americans get themselves so bent out of state over Iran.
It's simple .... a large segment of the populace believe and react just as the talking heads on television instruct them to. Mindless zombie mouth breathers

Mossadegh was never elected, and all the US did was pay iranians to do what they were already going to do, remove a PM who had illegally taken powers from the constitutionally-empowered leader, the shah.

who push for the endangerment of American lives by insisting that we get involved in the affairs of other and the US playing world police that absolutely disgust me. Feel free to go over there your selves with your own money to play world police.....don't you dare ask a penny out of my tax dollars in order to endanger American lives. It seems to me that you hate America by insisting on intervention...........why do you hate America and endanger American lives?
You should talk, why are you and the far left stealing MY tax dollars to buy future and current votes from the illegal alien invasions you are allowing in?
And how is the US facing "blowback" for paying iranians, when russia had troops in 21 countries, all puppets, and never faced any blowback for doing far, far worse? Or is it easier for the lunatic far elft to just blame the US for every problem in the world?

And what source would show he was not democratically elected? And so what if his election was illegal, it was the will of the people. Legal and illegal doesn't matter. For instance......
During the American revolution, Im sure that the British saw our overthrowing of their power as illegal as well. And during the Nazi regime in WW II, the massacre and extermination of the Jews was legal according to German law. You should look past the fact whether something is legal or illegal.

I'm sorry, I looked back at the posts on this thread and I never mentioned any support of allowing illegals in
But its ok, but keep making personal attacks, assuming things and changing the subject. That will show people how great your argument stands
If I had it my way, I would ensure harsh and severe sentences to any corporation or individual who hires an illegal worker, and have e-verify made mandatory for all employment. You would see illegal immigration stop if that happened.

Never said that the US was responsible for all the ills in the world. But hey its kind of hard not to see why some Iranians have a grudge on us......I mean we only helped Iraq gas the Iranians...
You righties are so silly, insiting on limited govt. but yet using the goverments power to interfere in the lives of foreign countries and their citizens.....sure does sound like limited govt. to me
And what source would show he was not democratically elected?
Uh, what source besides every history book and the news media? According to the iranian constitution, the PM is APPOINTED by the shah, but you already knew that, didn't you? I'll bet you also knew that the shah by that same constitution had control over the military, foreign policy, etc., which mossadegh attempted to usurp. So many iranians decided to remove him from power, and would have done so with or without US involvement, which consisted of paying them to do so, and printing posters. Big deal.

Again, go do some research before sounding even more ignorant. Clearly you've read too many dailykos posters with the blathering "US overthrew a democratically-elected government" nonsense without having done any, so today would be a good time to start.

No it wasn't, there was never a law on the books, including the nuremberg laws of 1933, where it was ever legal to murder anyone. Do you make this nonsense up as you go along?

Really? Why is that? The british burned down the white house in 1812, but the US doesn't hold a grudge. Russia had troops and puppet, oppressive/murderous regimes in 21 whole countries from 1945 to 1989, yet we don't see blowback or any of those 21 countries murdering russians. Wonder why that is...

Not exactly true. You might want to read up on the Niagara Campaign of 1814. It did not work out as well as the US had hoped, which is why you will not find any mention of it in your typical US history books.
