Iran gives the finger to the free world. Obama hides under desk.

  1. No argument, however the regime that took the Shah's place is openly hostile to the US and there are probably a good number of Iranians who would like to be rid of a bunch of theocrats trying to control their lives. Is life better for them?

    What is troubling about this whole matter (and I certainly am not an apologist for Israel) is the fear that Iran is going to keep popping off and get their wish.

  2. This was a consequence of the U.S. CIA overthrowing Iran's democratically elected government to install a dictator Shah in power...

    What's worse?

    a) Overthrowing a democratic government to install a fundamentalist dictator
    b) Kidnapping embassy workers for a year?
