Well, you see, the Shah was totally evil, using SAVAK to round up people by the dozens, so we had to topple him so the Mullahs can murder people by the thousands. It was totally predictable, but Jimmy knew all the answers from his Annapolis training. Ya gotta break a few ten thousand eggs to make a tasty Islamic omelet. Thanks, Jimmy, you served your Master well!
It took a true Moslem President to ship them cash and gold by the pallet so we could have some real terrorism. Thanks, Obastard!
