    Well, Iran had a democratic government before the U.S. and U.K. orchestrated the coup in 1953 that installed the Shah. The government was led by Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh, who was democratically elected and nationalized the oil industry.

        I like this extra information. Why do you have a problem with it?

        I like the idea of remembering history and who the real villains are. These scum are just a result of American work.

          Ah, but the Americans are only there because of the British. And the British, only because of the Normans.

          Or were you hoping to stop history wherever supports this conclusion?

            The Normans were long dead and forgotten when the British created the Thirteen Colonies.

            The British were dead and forgotten for America in the Korean War. (Circa 1953)

            The American society is still heavily influenced by these tactics.

              Yep, it’s definitely not in the American national anthem, and they definitely don’t like calling people redcoats still. /s
