If you read history, the Shah was pushed out by the Nixonites, that is he was abandoned by them and was being pushed out. Events were already in progress when Carter took over. Carter was a victim of a lot of bad luck. You must also be aware that Reagan's people in the oil-CIA business arranged for the Iranian hostages NOT to be released until after Carter was out of office. That is where the term "October Surprise" came from. We have seen similar abuses with Iran-Contra and the energy crises now with Prince Bandar and the Kuwaitis. Much of it in secret but we know from Iran-Contra what can be done.
