Why Iran Won’t Bow to Foreign Pressure
Washington Post / Hooman Majd
10-Oct-2010 (8 comments)

Iran is a proud nation with a strong sense of history -- ancient history as well as contemporary from the greatness of the Persian Empire and its resurgence under the 16th Century Safavids to the indignity of a simple CIA- and MI-6-sponsored coup eliminating its one moment of democracy in 1953.

Never increase, beyond what is necessary, the number of entities required to explain anything.

yes, we are to believe that the mullahs represent 'IRAN AND THE PERSIAN CULTURE....!'

 

this crap is not going to fly anymore- it's not 1979!

and as far as 'foreign interference' goes, none other that carter, mi6, and the french stinkies were the true backers and creators or your beloved akhoonds!
