The military sided with the protesters & the Ayatolas to oust the Shah.
America stood by our longtime ally (puppet?) & the winners of that revolution have hated us since.
The Ayatolas are backing Amadinnajacket. The protesters, not. The military?
It would help if they’d go back to calling themselves Persia, I’m not comfortable with the Iran/Aryan connection.

Does anyone get that Afghanistan and Iraq were both military coups with outside support, from us?
