In closing, daywolf, you provided a very simplistic explanation as to why Iran is the way that it is, but you ignored almost all historical context and the most critical aspect of Persian culture: Pride. Parading on the hallowed ground of Persepolis sealed Pahlavi's fate. But had America and Britain been more responsible, it would've never come to that.

I'm not ignoring history, I'm addressing events that led up to a certain point in context of the response. It didn't just suddenly start there which is my point, just as WWII existed and contributed to the results. Especially by their chosen aliment regardless of reasons, they pay the consequences. Just like Melons had a valid point that this is a result of some 1400 years of history that really they still hold to to this day with disdain. No one is ignoring history, but some are trying to pick and choose.
