    Uh, no. Wtf. The Shah was an oppressive authoritarian. That’s one of the reasons why Iran is pissed at us. We should have let them nationalize their oil industry and not overthrown their democratically elected leader.

      O rly now? Hmm such a difference from now, lol.

      But fr I meant Mohammad Mosaddeq, not that shah, just forgot about which one we overthrew.
