America always putting up governments and then biting them in the ass later.



Although life under the Shah's pictures show more westernization -
Life in Iran before 1979:

Actually Iran would be an economic power today if it had behaved throughout modern times in a civilized manner. They are so wacked in the head over there, they kill each other while attending the same funeral.

There's nothing good about that event, and no reason to cheer the deaths of those unfortunate participants. People who do are sick.

Are you pretending that the Persians, Iranians today, have been a saint until the day Trump bombed someone?

The history of atrocities from Persians goes back to the beginning of the time, and America was only born in 1776.

Really. I never see anything stamped "Made In Iran". Surely, devotion to their backward religion keeps them from being much more economically advanced.

If someone wants to kill you, you may be well advised to kill them first.
