Pressure Israel, Not Iran
By MARJORIE COHN - January 18, 2012
In 1953, the CIA engineered a coup that replaced a democratic government in Iran with the vicious Shah. He ruled Iran with an iron hand for 25 years, wreaking torture and terror on Iranians while keeping Iran open to Western investment...The Iranian revolution overthrew the Shah, replacing him with a tyrannical theocracy that continues to violate the rights of the Iranian people. But that does not mean that Iran...will attack Israel. The Iranian government knows that Israel and the United States would retaliate with unimaginable military force that would devastate Iran...
