I’m well aware that the British and US lead a coup to reinstall the Shah, which ultimately caused the Iranian Revolution. Islamic fundamentalism was definitely not the answer.
It has been their answer because a ideologically strong and intolerant leadership is what you need when foreign power are invading your politics and coup-ing your governments.
You don't want to end up geopolitically cucked like Ethiopia or India or China. So you install brutal monster who put people repeating foreign power talking points, into an industrial blender.
Anyone who thinks that's not great, great! Stop doing to the coup shit. Find a CIA mind slave and explain why the oxygen they're breathing could feed some african child.
You sure have a lot of fucking attitude for someone criticizing people for not being your slaves. Pretty crazy you have the fucking nerve to criticize in the first place. Almost like you think they should have stayed your slaves and that would have been better.
