The United States of America created Iran. You reap what you sow.



we did? How many other countries did we create? We have only been around just over 200 years. What about the British? Didn't they create the colonies? I guess it's really all the Brits fault. :lol

GScholz, you are too smart to believe that.

However I recant my previous statement. You do not reap what you sow. The Iranians did.


So, since 1953 the US has had an active presence in Iran which has controlled it, resulting in chaos ever since? I don't recall any US troops controlling Iran.

How come Germany and Japan seemed to survive okay? They acually were occupied.

We never had control over Iran. Why are you so dumb? You think we influenced Iran 1953 ?

So, if it's that easy, why can't we do that in Iraq?

The facts are indisputable. You instigated and funded the deliberate overthrow of a democratic government and created a dictatorship in Iran, and a brutal one at that.


The democracy that was overthrown was not any better and close to collapse...given the choice of the shah and the fundamentalists poised to take power , we chose the lesser of two evils.

Hey, doesn't the logic of people like you suggest that dictators are in power simply because the people wont rise against them?

GSholz, the Iranian Shaw has not been in power since the 1970's. How does the US matter now? The people of Iran have spoken....correct? They have what they want now, correct?

You did twice once in '63 and also in '68, which installed the Baath party and ultimately Saddam. At that time they had only a mere 850 members. Not only that but you gave the Baathists a list of some 5000 civillians who were to be tortured and killed right after the coup.

okay I got my history wrong..I must have been thinking of something similar but elsewhere..

US & CIA in Iran 1953

Regardless...The people that have control now are nutjobs and need to be stopped...maybe not by force..Iran is not Iraq and would prove much harder to topple..Iran just needs to realize that they don't need a nuclear weapons program..who is their threat? US?..not really.....US relations with Iran were actually warming quite a bit before 9/11, but have cooled since they are known to harbor and support terrorism...The Navy doesn't even get nervous going through the straits of Hormuz anymore passing under their coastal defenses. Their ships are polite and friendly on the seas also..quite a change from the late 70's and early 80's..and they don't use aircraft in a provoking manner anymore..

I dont get it?

When has the US controled Iran?  The Shaw was taken out in the late seventies by the people of Iran. The people of Iran now have the government they wished for.
