These were the words uttered by the distraught Shah of Iran when, grieving, he reflected on his downfall just before his demise in exile. The tormented former “King of Kings” ardently nurtured a deep-rooted conviction that the Carter Administration, in cooperation with the British Secret Intelligence, ordered and ensured his fall.

I remember how tragic the Carter actions were at the time. I have since met former Iranians who barely escaped the country with their lives. Carter could care less. He couldn't have a friend of the US and Israel in the middle east.

Of course, this emboldened radical Islam and when our embassy was taken, Jimmah didn't have the balls to do anything but sit in the White House and whine until the day Ronald Wilson Reagan was Inaugurated.

And Jimmah is still a great proponent of sitting down and talking to the Iranians. Did a lot of good when he tried it as President. Well good luck with emulating the great Cartah Presidency, Mr. Obama.

Carter had a very simple-minded approach to foreign policy. If his State Department told him somebody was a human rights violator (maybe waterboarded someone), he turned on them and worked to undermine them, damn the ramifications for American interests.

Oh, by the way, that’s a very good history of what happened in Iran. Thanks for posting it.

Read this carefully and READING BETWEEN THE LINES see how closely the Obama take over and detruction of America along lines adopted and implemented by non-Iranian Khomeini from he Soviet playbook can be seen in progress here in the USA.

Khomeini openly hated Iran (not his real country, nor is America Obama’s) and often stated he would kill as many Persians as there were hairs on the head of his son, killed in an auto accident which he called an “assassination”.

Even in this fairly brief reportage, you can see the similarities between British-Indo Khomeini who invaded Iran, then destroyed it and Marxist-Islamist Oba-Hussein-Khomeini in the USA.

Hard to believe Obama is hell bent on our destruction but watch how much - quite probably IRREVERSIBLE damage he has done and points out proudly, in his first 120-days. Then, when reviewed in this light, the truth hits you. He and his nefarious gang are not making mistakes, they are doing it on purpose.

Thank you, FARS. We see the destruction of our beloved Country, and it's irreversible. There is no un-ringing a bell. We are being swept away like the outgoing tide.

see how closely the Obama take over and destruction of America along lines adopted and implemented by non-Iranian Khomeini from the Soviet playbook can be seen in progress here in the USA.

Ping to article and post #7.

I don't find it "Hard to believe". I saw it long before he he was elected president. I heard others express what my gut was telling me. One lady told me just watching him sent chills up and down her spine.

Other than that minor point I agree with all you said.

Thank for the ping.

Anti-Mullah’s articles on Carter-Iran are infinitely more comprehensive:

Folks should be pinged to go there.

The “hard to believe” points to the millions still in denial. Similarly to you, both I and AntiMullah have been shouting this out since he was a potential candidate for usurper POTUS.

Easy to spot when you’ve seen it before and it becomes a replay with different actors.

I wonder when the rest of America will wake up.

AntiMullah came into being as opposition to the clerics in islamic iran. Recently it has become hard to distinguish between Obama and the Mullahs and just as frustrating to see how they each ruthlessly destroy those they “administer”.

For those who refute all this with the comment that the American Khomeini has not caused the bloodshed of his “iranian” counterpart (they are both islamic), just wait for a few months and see the blood that may well flow in Califoria streets when Welfare payments are stopped.

Numerous street riots will, apart from probable deaths when local law enforcement clashes with perhaps starving rioters, most probably escalating to martial law and the sending of some of the 80,000 troops being trained in Georgia in Martial Law enforcement.

Think carefully when you realize the stopping of welfare checks covers hundreds of thousands and perhaps several million recipients who cannot survive. Only those who have falsified their true needs will stay home.

They will flood into streets not on the basis of any legal rights but on emotional reaction to a need or “want” they have come to expect as a right. Whether legals or illegals.

Remember the fairly recent California marches with all those Mexican Flags? Now add genuine hunger or loss of money with which to buy drugs or alcohol to the mix. Or more genuinely their need for medical care and medication.

Short term result - ayatollah type blood shedding.

Let’s see Obama boast publicly about that, though he may gloat privately at the extent of his anti-American success rate.

As goes California so goes the nation.

And if the going gets too tough, so goes Obama back to his motherland Kenya to live happily ever after with his Cousin Odinga in charge there and perhaps running legitimately for President of Kenya.

On a personal level, under the circumstances and without a financial cushion, I have an almost zero survival prognosis/quotient which makes my frustration even sadder for those who could otherwise live a long and fruitful life without the Obamanation our naive voters have inflicted on us.

Tanking the economy ———intentional.

Seizing private industry ——intentional.

Limiting energy sources——intentional.

Shah Ping.

That's a pretty good article.

BTW speaking of the 1946 Liberation of Azerbaijan from Communist Occupation (the Commies called themselves "Democrats"... there you go), two interesting tidbits:

1) the Shah personally flew with a Hurricane fighter over Enemy Lines, making him the only 20th century head of State personally fighting on the front (is there another one?).

2) it was the first and only time Stalin withdrew from occupied territory after WW2.

Exactly so. People “have eyes and see not, ears and hear not.” They are mesmerized like the mass adulation for a certain paperhanger and failed artist..
