   Things went from bad to ridiculous. When the top men of the country only   
   think of themselves and their own individual asses, and not the people,   
   there's something gravely wrong with that regime. It reminds me of   
   Shah's time responses to Americans' crime in Iran.   
      
   One I remember vividly cause it really pissed off people very noticeably   
   to even a 7 year old that I was. A disastrous very strong earthquake had   
   hit Iran centered at a city/village inside Ghazvin Dasht, Southwest of   
   Tehran. Suddenly there were hundreds of thousands of kids left behind   
   with their parents dead.   
      
   The government of Iran, instead of getting into high gear to face the   
   realities of problems created and help these kids, etc, within just   
   weeks of the earthquake, spent 40% of governmen's budget of that year on   
   purchasing military junk from United States..   
      
   People were furious and decided to take care of the kids at least. Many   
   Tehrani families adopted as many of the kids as they could. Some   
   families didn't formally adopt the kids but took care of them inside   
   their own families, like a guest or something. The rest of the kids left   
   behind, hundreds of thousands of them, were turned into streets and   
   became beggars and prostitutes and thieves.   
      
   But the United States had to have its military junk sold to Iran at 100   
   times the price. And Iran's government accepted that!   
      
   It gives me the same feeling that today's Iran, 100s of times in a   
   better condition and situation than Iran was at the beginning of   
   Saddam's military attack on Iran, acted just like those selfish people   
   in charge of the government with regard to that criminal activities of   
   the Americans inside Iran, and only thought of themselves and their own   
   asses in the aftermath of that catastrophic earthquake in 1962.   
      
   Iranians who kicked the Americans out for that and a hord of other   
   reasons all having to do with their criminla activities in Iran, at the   
   weakest point sood after the change in the government could decide to   
   withstand Saddam's attack. But this government, right now in Iran, which   
   still steals credit from those Iranians, in a position at least a   
   hundred times better than those Iranians in 1980, caved in to the   
   Americans and let the opportunity to solve the matter of Israel pass by.   
      
   The act was so ridiculous that even affected Trump's words. His words   
   already funny, turned into kindergarten words about Iran.   
      
   Result: Israel will without a doubt attack Iran much harder very soon.   
      
   Iran avoided that with Saddam (and Turkey ) by punishing Saddam for 8   
   years, showing those people and all the other neighbors of Iran,   
   especially Turkey, what happens to them if they attack Iran.   
      
   But now Israel, Turkey, and Azerbayjan Republic have all obtained free   
   tickets from Iran's government itself to attack Iran with full impunity.   
      
   Iran's government has turned into another Shah's type government.
