Agreed.... it's not like we're not running around over there making all sorts of deals in back rooms. This has been going on for decades ["Death to Carter, Death to U.S.A."- when I was in school many of the Iranian students on our campus routinely protested against the Shaw and Savak to anyone who would listen. These were highly educated portion of the population- and they hated him... OUR guy, and a bad one.], one should observe what folks think of you and pay attention IMO. We never gave a rat's @$$.

Nearly all the support to all these clowns was done so based on 'one dimensional' thinking.... "he's anti-soviet, forget the rest." There has been little thinking going into these relationships. In Buddism, Islam, Christianity or Spirtuality of all kinds it is the INTENTION of a relationship or (inter)action that judges it... I don't think anyone would deny that almost every decision made with all these despots we got into bed with was made with little regard to good intentions to the party it was made with [and certainly not their populations!] All we cared about was US. If I made all my personal decisions with my associates and friends this way I'd have none.

Don't get me wrong, I'm NOT justifying anything that happened, I'm just stating the obvious... our FP has been a disaster all along, from the Shaw, Pinochet, Saddam.... what a joke.
