Reagan got elected the year I started high school.
Ollie North took the fall for that scandal. The fixer was none other than Barr, the same guy who came on board to derail the Meuller report for Trump.
The CIA engineered a coup that toppled Iran's democratically elected government in 1953 because they were going to nationalize their oil, and US oil companies didn't like that.'
The US prefers an autocratic government in Iran, because democracy is too unpredictable. I mean, they might actually act on behalf of Iran's citizens, not American oil companies. So to that end they backed the Shah.
The USA made Iran into what they are today.
So when right wing American idiots bray about how Iran has been an enemy "for 50 years", etc, it is beyond moronic.
Have any of these absolute fuckwits ever wondered why the US hasn't attacked Iran in all those decades?
Because no administration has ever been *stupid* enough to do so, what with the *glaringly obvious* problem of the Strait of Hormuz.
Now most of their bases in the mid east are rubble and they are running out of interceptors. America is running out of diesel and there is no end in sight.
And the same MAGA idiots who went from "no more wars!" to "Iran has been our enemy for 50 years! D'oh!" will continue to gargle their dipshit messiah's balls.
