The Iran apologists have been around for a long time
Here’s a tremendously informative article in Commentary on the “give Iran a chance” wing of the left, and how long they’ve been trying to influence our foreign policy—essentially, ever since the 1979 Iranian revolution that ushered in the theocracy there. … Continue reading →
Kerry doesn’t want us to screw the Ayatollah
