I could never understand why the Bush administration let Iran get away with so much. They were waging war on us (and have been since 1979), and the administration did essentially nothing. And then Obama came along and bent us over for them and didn’t even ask for lube. Thanks, Valerie!

Because he was too afraid to take on the Democrats and their support for Iran.
The problems in Iran started with the Carter administration…..in 1979.
Note something here. The willingness of US administrations to tolerate Khomeinist Caliphate Revivalism seems to vary in close proportion to how much a US Administration feels it needs approval from the EU’s elites. The corruption of the EU by the Oil-For-Food/Oil-For-Palaces program of the UN was not an exception, but a *norm*. The EU’s corruption there was mostly funneled through Total/Gulf/ElFina oil monopoly in France, but was spread all over the EU. Even Bush 43 felt he needed Tony Blair’s participation in Iraq to legitimize the invasion, and after, until Britain pulled out almost totally in 2009.
The belief, that European elites’ approval is needed to legitimize US foreign policy, has a *strong* hold on the US political community. This is because it has almost complete agreement in academia, where so many of the politicians, journalists, foreign policy officers, and others, get their training in international affairs courses. Does anyone think that the Sunni side of Islam was the *only* place they were accepting oil money bribes from?
“The problems in Iran started with the Carter administration…..in 1979.”
No, 19 August 1953.
Was that when the Soviets interfered in the Iranian election.?
ROFLMAO, you’re funny!
Are you truly so naive as to think Stalin didn’t have his hooks in that in neighboring Iran?
You are dumb.
Sure, but this was about the problems of Iran in Iraq during the war and why Bush didn’t do more to impede their involvement. They didn’t just fight us in Iraq but also Afghanistan and they also helped al qaeda before and after 9/11.
The Islamic Republic nothing. Islam itself has been at war with civilization since the 7th century.
