The rupture of Iran-US relations is due to US behaviors. The US policy infiltrated our country around 1942 and they replaced the British. They stole resources, strengthened Pahlavis' authoritarian regime, insulted our people, brought about the Capitulation treaty, overthrew national govts and many other crimes that if they are written down they would make a large book. 01/16/1998
The rupture of Iran-US relations is due to US behaviors. My dears! The US policy from around 1942 onwards infiltrated our country. They slowly took the place of the British and during the nearly twenty eight years of US strong presence in this country, they did all kind of insults, evil and cruelties that an arrogant government could have done to an oppressed nation; stole the resources, strengthened Pahlavis' authoritarian regime, insulted our officials and people, brought about the Capitulation treaty, overthrew national governments and many other crimes that if an author decides to write down they would make a large book.
