>About withdrawing financial support of Iran...
Ahem! How about lifting the sanctions? Let them use SWIFT.
So the USA has never got over the embassy takeover. There is a sequence, one item never mentioned. I can only think of Mossadegh, Shah, embassy, Iranian revolution, Iran-Iraq war, I forget the rest.
The Iran Iraq war is never mentioned. Human wave attacks, kids from school sent to the front and mowed down, the desire of the US administration that they should weaken each other. There was a memorial fountain maybe in Tehran for those kids full of red water. That nice photo of Rumsfeld shaking hands with Saddam. never bloody well mentioned. Maybe a million dead.
