Actually, I'm using practical matters "what if's" instead of absolutes "facts" in this case because of what history has taught me.
'53 - Iran elects a leaders, Kermit Roosevelt, a CIA agent, uses the media and other agencies to turn it's people against the new leader and stages huge revolts and changes the course of Iran's future.
'09 - Iran elects a new leader, the people stage huge revolts against it's new leader.
The only thing we're missing is what may or may not be there.... an outside force at work behind the scenes right there in Iran.
Is the US or some other nation meddling? Will a classified document be released 40 years from now detail Operation Ajax part 2?
Good intentions or not, Operation Ajax led to some very bad stuff... hostages, revolutions... hate.
I'd hate for history to repeat itself based on practical matters as yet undetermined.
And yes Martin, Iran is filled with mostly young people as Iran staged a huge reward program for people to have children... they gave them tv's, cars... anything and everything to have more kids because the Iran-Iraq war went on for so long, they wanted to ensure they had more soldiers in the future.
They're all becoming "of age" now.
