Has to do with the Shah, we put these tyrants in charge then watch it blow up in our faces.
I’m not American... I didn’t want to point out the link. ?
I suspect nearly every despot in the last 100 years can be traced back to a western power meddling in places they shouldn’t be.
I think of this every time some asshat says "women in America have it good. There's no sexism here". I know damn well this kind of thing is waiting right under the suface and it wouldn't take much for us to go full "handmaids tale".

Most people today don't know how the middle east looked before the 80s/90s. It's a warning about unchecked religious power in government (aka Cruz or pence if they had their way)

Only problem I see is the captions... one call them "women".... the other are "school girls". So the students are in uniform. A uniform is a Uniform is a UNIFORM. My Thought.
