Do you know why the CIA overthrew the Iranian government and installed a dictator (who became one of the biggest human rights violators in the world)

So I guess you believe the current Iranian government is a pillar of virture compared to the Shah, eh??

Just look at all the progress the Ayatollah have made... Look at their wonderful record of human rights advances.....

Look at how supportive they are toward spreading the values of freedom and democracy throughout the middle east...

Quite a track record they've developed...

Btw, when are you planning your move to Tehran?? I think you'll feel quite at home there...

Obviously, you're feeling out of place in the west..

Congratulations!

You said:

I can't think of any reason, other than oil, why the U.S. would keep troops stationed in Saudi Arabia. And this is what prompted his jihad against America.

Two accurate sentences! In a row! I didn't expect to see this. Way to go, Thomas. I'm sure if you try you can do it again.
