Another good thing to research is our history with Iran back to the early 1950s.
Back then they had a great fair government with a popular Prime Minister. Then along came Big Oil, BP and Standard Oil. They thru out that government and installed a Repressive Shah and split the oil up between him and the oil companies. No wonder they don’t like us and we have been brainwashed into thinking they are terrible.
I learned early about what really happened in the Gulf of Tonkin and the real reason behind the war in Viet Nam. Some of the bigger players of that lived in my town. I became a big anti-war protester.
Lots of twisted history explains our horrible world today.
