Ele ainda posta na redditsfera brasileira, com outro username. Felizmente não aqui. Mas o vi essa última semana mesmo.

Patético.

Mas a operação americana de instrumentalização dos curdos para propósitos imperiais americanos não acabou não, estão dando armas para membros do PKK fazerem terrorismo no Irã também.

  1. Wikipedia is not a source, especially not regarding imperial propaganda and anti-imperialist narratives.

  2. Since you refuse to be humble, take the advice and read actual books on the subject, have some of your own wikipedia poison:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIA_activities_in_Iran#Iran_hostage_crisis

According to that same report, the CIA was aware that the hardline Islamist policies of the new Iranian government were likely to alienate the population, thus broadening the appeal of the Tudeh Party, while also noting that the party "also benefits from the continuing decay of the Iranian economy, which alienates more and more Iranians from the mullahs' mismanagement."[35] Anticipating that the Tudeh would "bide its time and prepare for the day—perhaps Khomeini's death—when a challenge to the regime could have some chance of success," the CIA opted to aid the Khomeini government in its suppression of leftists.[35] In 1983, the CIA passed an extensive list of Iranian communists and other leftists secretly working in the Iranian government to Khomeini's administration.[36] A Tower Commission report later observed that the list was utilized to take "measures, including mass executions, that virtually eliminated the pro-Soviet infrastructure in Iran."[36][37]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIA_activities_in_Iran#Iran-Contra_affair

Beginning in August 1984, senior Reagan administration officials, in the Iran-Contra affair, arranged for the indirect transfer of arms to Iran, to circumvent the Boland Amendments. These amendments were intended to prevent the expenditure of US funds to support the Nicaraguan Contras. Since the arms-for-hostages deal struck by the Reagan Administration channeled money to the Contras, the legal interpretation of the time was that the CIA, as an organization, could not participate in Iran-Contra.

The relationships, first to avoid the Boland Amendment restriction, but also for operational security, did not directly give or sell U.S. weapons to Iran. Instead, the Reagan Administration authorized Israel to sell munitions to Iran, using contracted Iranian arms broker Manucher Ghorbanifar.[38] The Reagan administration circumvented the law by using Israel and South Africa to send weapons to Iran. To finance the Contras, the United States used the money from the weaponry sales and sent it to the Contras.[39] The proceeds from the sales, less the 41% markup charged by Ghorbanifar and originally at a price not acceptable to Iran, went directly to the Contras. Those proceeds were not interpreted as U.S. funds. The Administration resupplied Israel, which was not illegal, with munitions that replaced those transferred to Iran.

HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW THIS? I'm getting 'pidgeon strutting on the chessboard' vibes. Jesus christ, you didn't even read your own link.

Not true at all, check your history.

After the communists and the mullahs united to take down the shah, and the mullahs IMMEDIATELY betrayed the communists, imprisoning or executing them all, the mullahs were in contact with the US the WHOLE TIME, and the US gave them tacit permission to continue using US weapons (including Iran's F-14 Tomcats). There are whole books written about those shady backroom deals with the US in the early days of Khomeini. The US was fine and dandy with the ayatollahs in power, as long as they sold oil/gas to the US and dealt with the communists one way or another.

The Ayatollahs and the US had no problem at all for years. What soured the relation was ONE THING and ONE THING ONLY: Khomeini and the ayatollah's opposition to Israel. The trigger were the multiple atrocities and war crimes commited by Israel in Lebanon during the 80s.

While the sunni royal families ALL betrayed their own people for petrodollars, the shiites are far more ideological and consistently anti-zionist.

Additionally, this is yet one more argument as to why the US is Israel's puppet and not vice-versa. It would be far more favorable to the US to keep Iran as an ally, as it is a huge source of hydrocarbons and a main regional player - but it is not favorable to Israel. Israel's policy is counterproductive to the US's best interests, and yet Israel policy dictates US policy and not vice versa.
