"The Shah was feared because of his secret police, so if I were an Iranian it's just one tyrant versus another.

By the way, do you believe in democracy ? Would democracy be good for Iran ? Did they ever have it ? What happened to it ?"

The Shah did not make statements about his goals to use WMDs to annihilate his neighbors. Even a tyrant is preferable to a crazy.

Democracy? I believe it is a worthy goal and that anything we can to to share share democracy with others can benefit the world. I approach freedom with an abundance mentality. Do you view it with a scarcity mentality?
