    Back in the 50’s Iran had a puppet govt with the shaw of Iran kept in place because he let the west, BP specifically I think, keep pulling out oil, despite the public’s desire to see profits benefit Iran instead of BP. 1979’s revolution was the pendulum swinging back the other way.

    In the end it all boils down to money and some groups thinking they deserve all the money while the folks who the money rightfully belongs, get none of it.
