If more people knew what we did to Iran...

Hands on buzzers, for 500 points: this democratic leader was overthrown in 1953 by a US-organized coup in retaliation for nationalizing oil resources previously controlled by the British.

Mad because I was glorifying Amadenijad and the Basij bregade? Get real. You came into that argument guns blazing from the get go. I had never even heard of the basij brigade until you brought them up.
On topic:
This was news to me actually. I had no idea previously that Iran was a democracy. It is kind of interesting though. Just the other day I was reading on Yahoo about Israel's plans of regime change in gaza. I believe one of the Jewish officials hinted that they were going to assassinate Hammas officials to try and give Gaza back to the fatah regime. Which is kind of funny considering Hammas was voted in democratically in a land slide victory by the palestinian people. The thing is that the west thinks w/o their leaders the palestinians will be docile and not stand up for there rights. But its not the leaders that make the palestinians the way they are, its the people. The oppresion they face is why they vote in leaders like that and its why Iran had its revolution. The people choose it and the people want to keep it. What the U.S needs to do is keep our fingers out of there lands and stop spreading fear amongst the people.

Muslims believe that one day all the muslims will be unified under one Caliph like in the Old days. So of course they got each others backs.

I actually thought the beginning of that movie was also very informative. It framed the whole movie.
I think that first bit should be on the youtubes somewhere...

Now that thats out of the way, Iran helping Hezbollah is the same thing as the U.S helping the Jews. I dont get how people denounce Iran for arming Hezbollah and not the U.S for basically giving the Bomb to the jews. Its goddamnridiculous.
Yea Israel just commited another crime and assasinated a hesbollah leader. Though I woudlnt be too sure that hes dead. Aparrently this dude was one of the hardest people in the world to trace. Even for the U.S. But this is some serious bullshit. A good thing Prince. Fuck man. I'm sick of all these damn Machiavellian thinkers.
Zulu: Sad to hear. I can understand though coming from you. Africa has been raped more times than Casca, eveb by arabs/muslims. Pan Islamism will happen one day. The Quran describes it during a time of such great oppression. My people have seen some of this already. When the Soviets came to Afghanistan the one thing that the people would not stand for was the Soviets Godlessnes. Mulsims all over the region stood up together to try and stop them (though it would not have happened w/o the u.s weapons).
