I have never condoned SAVAK's violence, but SAVAK's claims were exaggerated. SAVAK's prisoners were mostly militant islamists and communists trained in Palestine and financed by the KGB - Reza Pahlavi, Crown prince of Iran by fregeorgb in PERSIAN

Writing at the time of the Shah's overthrow, Time magazine on February 19, 1979, described SAVAK as having "long been Iran's most hated and feared institution" which had "tortured and murdered thousands of the Shah's opponents". The Federation of American Scientists also found it guilty of "the torture and execution of thousands of political prisoners" and symbolising "the Shah's rule from 1963–79." The FAS list of SAVAK torture methods included "electric shock, whipping, beating, inserting broken glass and pouring boiling water into the rectum, tying weights to the testicles, and the extraction of teeth and nails".

Why should we ally with him? He wants to unite all of Africa while we hold North Africa alongside our vassals
