re: #164 quickjustice
You’re repeating Jimmy Carter’s excuse for abandoning the Shah. SAVIK was brutal, no doubt, but the mullahs have been far worse.
As for you, Killgore, have you no decency, sir? I knew one of the CIA operatives, now dead, who pulled off the removal of Tudeh. You think a Soviet puppet regime would have been better for the Iranian people?
Too bad you didn’t ask your dead freind about the decades long relationship between the Old Soviet Union as well as present day Russia and Iran as stated in post #146
