  • Despite its relatively brief duration, the War on Iran has been nearly half a century in the making. That country officially became a theocracy back in 1979, under the rule of the late Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. In the midst of Khomeini’s revolution, Iranians stormed the U.S. embassy and took 66 Americans hostage, including diplomats, triggering a crisis that lasted well over a year and left deep enmity between our two countries in its aftermath. There are active government officials in America who have, quite literally, wanted to destroy Iran my whole life.

    Even an article like this blindly ignores that America was the aggressor and tries to frame Iran as the bad guy, when the current regime is a response to the USA overthrowing a democratically elected government.
