Thank you very much for providing this link.
I don’t consider myself to be as knowledgeable and erudite on this matter as I’d like to be but I’d say you’d find others who might not necessarily agree.
Jimmy and Andrew Young also brought the Zimbabweans Robert Mugabe in much the same fashion.
Well lets see, Harry Truman died on December 26, 1972. Dwight Eisenhower died on March 28, 1969. John Kennedy was assasinated on Novemeber 22, 1963. Lyndon Johnson died January 22, 1973. Richard Nixon resigned the presidency on August 9, 1974. Gerald Ford was too much of a gentleman to second guess the President. Guess it just didn't happen.
Instead peanut boy backed the Ayatollah Khomeini. You remember him; heis the guy who marched little children ahead of histroops to clear the land mines.
I cannot think of Carter without spitting on the ground.
My cousin is married to an Iranian she met in grad school and they were living in Tehran when the Shah was overthrown. They came back to the US ASAP.
I’ve referred to President Peanut Brain as the ‘Godfather os Islamism’ for over a decade now.
Oops. Jimmuh Cahtuh is the ‘godfather of Islamism’.
Worst president ever, bar none. (Not in any particular order):
1) Loss of the Panama Canal,
2) “feckless” boycott of the Olympics,
3) responsible for Khomeini’s rise to power (note that I did not say responsibilty for the revolution itself);
4) Sandinistas,
5) “Arab Cold War” (set the cause of comprehensive middle east peace back 30 years by brokering an ill-conceived separate peace between Israel and Egypt.
6) “National malaise”
7) double digit inflation
8) Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, about which he did nothing other than (see #2, above)
9) “Lusted in my heart many times”
etc., etc....All in four, count ‘em, four years. And there are people out there who would be willing to elect Jimmah disciple Obama just to spite McCain? Are you out of your friggin’ minds?
1. the only people who HATED the late Shah were the Soviet backed Communists he prevented from seizing power and handing the country to the Soviets.
Some of the Iranian Tudeh (Communist Party) leaders have gone on record (Persian language TV) recently saying they never wanted political freedom “for the people” but political freedom for their “imported” ideas (from the USSR) so that they could complete their subversive activities and grab power with the help of the Soviets.
Purely selfish, not altrusitic motives many since claim in revisionist history.
2. Similarly, the supporters of Mossadegh (mostly liberal Socialists in mindset) were also miffed when their falsely lauded “nationlist” leader was prevented by the CIA and the West from handing the oil he nationalized to the Soviets.
Check out the facts at the link below. The coup was not to restore the Shah but to prevent Iran falling into Soviet hands. The Shah was just an available and trustworthy, still very young, ally to achieve this.

3. As to Carter himself, he is not simply an inept, idiotic man. He is an evil and vindictive one.
The British Foreign Ofice sent somewhere between 200 and 400 trained observers to the USA to monitor the election between Carter and Reagan to spot if the Soviets were going to pour in large sums of money to buy the election for Carter.
He was generally considered a Soviet/Communist MOLE and appears to be proving they were right with his penchant for Communist friends like Castro, Chavez, Ortega and others. And with Islamic Jihad a “virtual” Marxist organization using the name of a religion, his meeting with Hamas etc., underlines this.

Then finally, round up your knowledge of Khomeini with this exclusive article:
http://noiri.blogspot.com/2004/03/who-is-ayatollah-khomeini.html
AntiMullah’s Alan and I both went through the Khomeini revolution and had access to top echelons of the Shah’s military, administration and intel agencies, so can speak with some authority.
Any questions for Alan (or me) can be sent to info@antimullah.com
BTW, if you still want more visual input, try looking through the three or four videos at:

What drives Carter in his vileness and lies? /rhetorical
I’m a contrarian on the subject of Jimmy Carter.
For me, the worst thing that happened under his watch, even worse than what happened in Iran, was the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. The Kremlin rightly saw him as fatally weak and went into Afghanistan confident that Carter’s America would do nothing.
The Afghan war created Al Qaeda and Sunni Islamic fundamentalism as a real military force, and we’ll be fighting it for generations. Thanks, Jimmy.
Whadd’ya mean? What about the Olympic boycott?
Well done FARS, well done indeed.
And lest anyone forget, it was Carter and his National Security Advisor Brzezinski who instigated the 8-year Iran/Iraq War which resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people who quite simply didn’t have to die.
Why did they do that?
Because the Buffoon from Plains was trying to put some pressure on Tehran as 1980 was more than half way gone, and the hostages were still being held prisoner by the Iranian terrorist ‘students’.
Before Carter got a footstool to reach the doorknob of the Oval Office, Iran was a steady and dependable ally, had NO hostile intentions towards Israel, and was a force for peace and stability in the Middle East.
After Carter was flushed down the ol’ toilet bowl by 44 States and Ronald Reagan in November 1980, Iran had been converted into an enemy of the U.S., the Soviets were raping and pillaging Afghanistan, and the Middle East was a cauldron, all thanks to that rabid sphincter muscle calling itself ‘Jimmy Carter’.
Thanks FARS.

Thanks for the ping.
I’ve checked your page out and bookmarked it. Very interesting stuff there, though it probably requires some background on Iranian history and culture to understand. My studies concentrated on ancient iran and india so I have a little depth there; what I know of “modern” iran, however, is mostly through that and what several expatriate friends have told me. I’ve always been very interested in knowing more about Khomeini’s history.
Anyway, stuff like this is very important for people to know in the coming years. The dangers of a nuclear Iran under the current leadership are terrifying. But the possibility of rapproachment with the population of Iran holds promise. There was some chance, I thought, under President Rafsanjani, but it never materialized, or maybe it was a pipedream anyway. I have not heard anything about him in a couple years. I remember reading that Carter had the opportunity to work out a deal with Rafsanjani—who I believe at that time was a member of the non-clerical portion of the legislature; that might have prevented Khomeini from taking over. I could be all wrong though.
The material on the death of Mussa Sadr is also interesting and important as it sets out the “secret” history of the Ayatollahs’ ambitions to expand outside of Iran. Keep up the good work.
