“We must remember that we, the American government are the reason why Iran is radical. We did this.

They had a democratically elected leader that we did not like, Mossaddegh. We didn’t like him, because he wanted to nationalize the oil. Specifically, the Brits didn’t like him. He was very popular. Look right there [points to Wikipedia article on Mossaddegh] Even in Wikipedia: ‘1953 Iranian coup d’état aided by the intelligence agencies of the United Kingdom (MI6) and the United States (CIA).’

So then we put the Shah back in who was sick and unpopular, meaning he was actually physically sick. And we paved the way for the most radical elements from Islam, from a country that the Persian people are the most entrepreneurial, they’re some of the smartest people that have really been living under radical Islamic captivity for many decades.

Why am I bringing this up? Sometimes your intervention can make things far, far worse.”
