Unfortunately, history is often written as propaganda and the recent war drum beats against Iran is a classic example where our government helped overthrow a democratically elected government in Iran in 1953 and propped up a dictator for oil.

We now have the news reader anchor for NBC news say on air yesterday that Iran is “an enemy of the United States.” Is this editorializing the news?

How can you have peace without recognizing the other country? How can you have peace without diplomatic relations? We build a billion dollar embassy in Iraq and have no embassy in Tehran. Is this U.S. government representing the American people well?
