I was at the university during that period. Our universities were lousy with the scum. NOT ONE of them spoke out against it, here or abroad. Indeed, almost without exception they revelled in it. And I had the misfortune of knowing or meeting hundreds of the bastards.

So, using your logic here, if I visited an American college during the war, and all I saw were anti-war rallies, communist professors, and peacenik students, I could rightly assume that America is 99% pro-appeasement/apologist/liberal. You could meet hundreds of Americans who revelled in socialist dogma walking across campus, that must mean that the entire nation must be Disneyland for Marxists.

Well, you're right, that wouldn't be a valid conclusion. However, I'm not basing my inferences on a brief visit to one college. So the analogy fails. How many instances of dissent during those years amongst Iranians abroad can you come up with? It's been a long time, but I can't think of one.
