Do you have a count, for the number of dead Muslims, at the hands of the U.S. military, plus our CIA, plus the governments our military and CIA propped up?
We had a long history, of intervention by our military and CIA, which resulted in the deaths of thousands of Iranians, Lebanese, and others, long before 1979. Americans largely belief the Myth that Muslim hatred of America came from nowhere, or came from their inherently violent religion, or something else, and America's hands are clean. We pretend we are the aggrieved party, and we can only maintain that pretense by ignoring the historical facts.
Go count how many Iranians died in the Shah's prisons. |
