re: #269 Hecuba’s daughter

And our involvement in the 1953 coup d’etat in Iran preceded Kissinger by a couple of decades. The world is still suffering from that decision. Kissinger was just following the policies of predecessors in the US government.

IIRC, in 1953 the US was supporting Britain’s policy in Iran. Not so much in Egypt after Nasser nationalized the Suez Canal in 1956.
