      Some. You make me laugh. Huge involvement😂 I like the way Obama says, we helped force out a democratically elected regime. Now democratically elected part seems to fit. How was it a regime. Being so popular, and democratically elected by the people? With no oppression. Can they even appear in the same sentence like that? 😵

      To both of you, how do you explain ISIS, Al Qaeda, the Taliban and the Wahhabi fundamentalists supporting and being involved in terrorism? _ALL_ religions have 'holy' wars where they kill people to 'save' them, what kind of f***d up logic is that except for having people who believe/submit and suspend morality to defend or promote their 'faith'? I know quite a few Muslims and many Christians who suspend their religious beliefs in order to live a moral life because to live by their religions morality would make them immoral by any humanistic understanding of morality.

Especially after watching this clip and seeing evidence of the US governments involvement in causing a civil war in a country that has caused the deaths of millions of people.... Even the term wahabi is a stupid rhetoric that doesn't even exist for a group of people. How about learning Islam? And not concern yourself with the actions and practices of people. And you will come to know that the highest level of ethics and morality is in Islam.

      These so-called "leaders" all have a time span! The Shah was placed in power by the CIA and the hardliner nationalist Mossadegh, whose intention was to nationalize the Iranian oil, was placed in prison!
      So long as the Shah did as he was told, he continued to "rule"!
      Once the Shah started criticizing the West, it was time to bring along another traitor called Khomeini!
      These mullahs are wholly obedient to their CIA bosses! Of course, all obedience takes place behind closed doors!
      In public, the mullahs condemn the West for everything!
      In private, the mullahs do EXACTLY as instructed!!!
      The Shah was against having a war with Iraq!!!
      Khomeini was placed in power, and within a year or two, the 9-year-long war with Iraq began!!!!
      As regarding the Hamas' horrendous attack on Israel last week, you need to ask yourself: How could the Israeli Secret Service not know about it? My gut feeling tells me that Israel itself is heavily involved in the horrendous attack against its own civilians!!! Just like the ploy called "weapons of mass destruction", which was used by the US to attack Iraq. Similarly, the tragedy of the Twin Towers was an inside job!!!!

    @flyer7799 6 лет назад +39

    Only piece missing is how US, Britain, France and Israel overthrew the Shah in 1979 and installed the ayatollahs. It started in 1973 with Shah indicating he would not renew oil contracts after their expiry in 6 years time or 1979. He also wanted to stop being a client state and talked to his neighbors about becoming self sufficient nations. It was then that the colonialists decided that the Shah’s expiration date had arrived and he was no longer serving their interests and thus had to be removed; hence the anti-Islamic revolution; better suited title.
    I mean think about it, how did Khomeini get the platform in France? How was he able to spread his message so freely and with such ease? Where did all of his assistance come from? Who was behind him? Since the fall of the Shah, who benefited from Iran’s destruction? Answer those questions and you will have your culprits who have always been the same people....Colonialist and Zionists.

      exactly...Kissinger planned it over embargo, they KNEW of kheomini thanks to the love letters he send to KENNEDY,...so Nixon who loved shah, and HATED clergy, opposed vehemently and he got FRAMED and IMPEACHED by Kissinger and his illuminati gang in the white house, 100% over this. They then planned to support and fund and empower khomieni which they did and you know the rest as new documents show. Without pivotal role of USA, khomeini and sharia has zero chance in Iran. Zero. After camp khomeini also helped camp Reagan, I mean after khomeini went ROGUE like Bin Laden and backstabbed his master carter, they helped Reagan and he returned the favour through contra which established this hated regime in Iran for good. America's role in tricking army of shah, exile of shah and the rest was PIVOTAL. Without what USA did, by telling Mossad not to touch khomeini based on Shah's PM's last min request and lying to army of shah and telling world leaders to NOT help shah etc , Khomeini had ZERO chance becoming Irans leader. ZERO

    Not a part of British history that I’m particularly proud. At that time, there was a lot of activity to undermine democratic governments (Guatemala, Nicaragua, etc) on the basis of halting communism, which led to highly adverse consequences for those countries.
    It’s almost ironic that Mahmoud Ahmedinajad was the one student leader who opposed the takeover of the US embassy in 1979, and then acted like he engineered the whole thing.

Blowback hasn’t been understood by these clueless policymakers and am sure there is more to come . It’s all a matter of time before they do it all over again . National interests comes first I get it but what if national interests creates more problems just like what we have in Iraq and Libya ? It’s ok taxpayers will take care of these unnecessary expenses. I truly hope that we finally understand what democracy really means !

    CIA did the same to Banisadr democratically elected president of Iran 30 years ago. He escaped to Paris and nobody knows why. Maybe in future CIA will let information out that they did not want intelligent leaders to manage Iran. Ayatollah Beheshti who was educated in Europe, was killed for the same reason. English were the mastermind behind everything in Iran, Iraq and middle east. and now Russians are in Middle East.Finally Tzar Nicholas I of Russia dream came true.

The people are suffering and turn to their saviour, Trump. I've been observing the US for a long long time. I'm just very sad for my fellow global citizens.

  • @jesseyork4024
    @jesseyork4024 6 лет назад

    Let me get this straight. Iran agreed to and signed legal contracts to allow the UK to drill for oil and for 50 years the UK invested millions of pounds building up the infrastructure, paying all of the necessary taxes and fees annually to the Iranian government, while employing more Iranians than British. The UK never cheated on the deal, never shielded profits or skimmed on paying Iranian taxes. Then along comes Mossadegh who, now that the infrastructure was in place, not only broke the legal contracts, literally stole through confiscation millions of pounds in UK property, and expelled the oil company without remuneration. How is that not theft? For kicks and giggles, let's imagine the "blowback" if, say, Donald Trump were to expel the most successful Chinese or Saudi companies in the US, confiscating hundreds of millions of dollars worth of their infrastructure/property, and not pay a single cent in remuneration all in the name of nationalism/populism. The world--most of whom already see him a dictator--would be up in arms. Yet, Mossadegh was just a democratically elected leader, looking out for the interests of his people?? It may be worth noting that while he was arrested by the CIA, he was tried, convicted, and sentenced by independent Iranian courts.

    Let's not forget that the first cia coup in 53, when democracy was thwarted, came right after the start of Israel 1948. One reason they wanted control of the oil, for the upcoming Arab oil embargo. Although the Shah was a monarch with a secret police, it got more brutal after the revolution, in terms of freedom, and the police not even secret. Lots of executions and mandatory headscarf for women. Some say from the frying pan to the fire. Also it was interesting how the television cameras drew in the crowd, and by looking at the cover of Le Monde, it seemed that the revolution had already occurred before it happened. Some say the Shah wanted to go more independent, and perhaps a new enemy was needed besides communism, especially for the benefit of Israel, who invaded southern Lebanon in early 80's. At first the Muslim fighters were being funded, but once the Soviet union fell apart, they became the new enemy. As long as weapons could be sold (weapons sold to both Iran and Iraq during war), perpetual wars, and Israel is safe

  • @Fred-xi4hi

    Don't play with people's minds,both Shah and Mosadegh had a same view about oil and future of Iran and British interfering ,if you watch Shah's speech at UN and OPEK you understand that Shah was like a father for Iran and Iranian ,ones he told British journalists ,our oil treaty with British ending at 1979 and after that we not gonna give you free oil anymore and it seems like that was his biggest mistake because British and France government with the green light of Jimmy Carter (US) orchestrated a revolution exactly at 1979 .
    Don't forget this wasn't the first time that British did something like that ,Shah's father worked so hard and changed the country dramatically but British sent him to exile,because they don't like good king who work for people and country,can you believe it?British sent my country's king to exile and backed his son just because they thought his young and controllable but very soon they find out that Shah and his father are the same and helping him was a mistake,so ,they helped khomaini to overthrow Shah ,now mullah working for British and France if you don't believe it tell me why Europe supports mullahs like this???

      The Shah was overthrown by the Ayatollah (who was resting in Paris)
      The Shah was overthrown by Socialists, Communists, Trades Unionists etc ; the revolution was then hijacked by fanatical Muslims who executed
      those who'd actually brought down the Shah.
      There has never been a vote on supporting the Ayatollahs : Islam is fundamentally opposed to democracy.
