England and the US fucked that place up horribly in 1953, when the CIA and MI6 (British intelligence) orchestrated a coup, and overthrew the existing government, because they were nationalizing Iranian oil production! We installed the Shah who was far more conducive (more easily bribed) to allowing oil companies to produce, and lie about production, to avoid agreed percentage payments to the government! The Shah and his wife lived like royalty, he flew meals in from Paris on the Concord, and she bathed in milk while many of the citizens starved. Their opulencec, decadence, and disregard for Iranian citizens culminated in a coup in 1979 (we remember it as the day our embassy staff in Tehran were kidnapped), where the Shah was overthrown and flew to the U.S. for refuge. It has been reported that the 747 (that we provided) was so heavy from the gold he stole from Iranian coffers, that it barely got off the ground departing Tehran airport.
The preceding is why Iranians consider the U.S. the “great Satan”, a deserved moniker if you know the history!
Trump is acting like a child that has no fucking idea that he has kicked a huge hornets nest down, and the idiot just keeps kicking because he is in over his head, as usual! Only this time, he’s not walkin away without some serious stinging, and we will be paying for this stupid shit for decades, if we are lucky enough to avoid WW3…
