Cold War II. The Search for the Roots of Democracy.


I watch and listen Senator Ted Cruz’s podcast Verdict. This man is a source of useful information, as take a fact that he is close to President Donald Trump with whom he meets often and they talk about current political affairs. In January, the Senator gave a probability that in the next half a year the regimes in Iran and Cuba could fall.

 

The ongoing in Iran corroborates my initial vision that a goal should be only the overthrow the regime to cease a nuclear program. It is difficult to deal with zealots because they keep to their plans and don’t want to change their ideology, including the termination of Israel.

The times under Mohammad Reza Pahlavi were more liberated if look on photos with Iranians in Western-style clothes, but it was other form of tyranny. I haven’t favor to the exiled Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi and his family who lived in Iran. Neither he, nor his mother Queen Farah were critical to the Shah while they were under him, who suppressed opposition and didn’t permit a free press. The exiled prince prefers to look only on one side, saying his father cared about interests of Iran and that selling the oil allowed the modernization of industry and infrastructure, including buildings and schools. He indirectly approves 1953 coup against Mohammad Mosaddegh by telling that Prime Minister supported commie Tudeh Party, whose influence was spreading. Actual things were that Mosaddegh openly despised communism, and this was shown in acts, which were suppression strikes of Tudeh Party and other commie-affiliate organizations in 1952-1953, and he used security forces to keep the order. From the other hand, Tudeh Party didn’t support Mosaddegh. It was backed by Commie Muscovy, which wanted through it come to taking the power in Iran – that it wanted to seize after the World War II in 1946, but the Allies pressured to step back. Iranian communists weren’t such mighty, and Mohammad Reza Pahlavi could get rid from them alone. Prime Minister’s refusal to share oil with America and Britain via nationalization of it was a breaking point of the coup that gave a total leverage to the Shah.

Reza Pahlavi considers that Carter didn’t support his father, and it strengthened the opposition. He rejects violence and tortures, but political prisoners under the Shah in his words were alike to Khamenei and KGB assets. He claims that over than 40,000 Iranians were under KGB control, which were suited in religious clothes. I’ve never heard about that, and it wouldn’t be a secret now, if it were so. The relationship between Iran and Commie Muscovy speaks against. The second recognized a new ruling, but that didn’t follow into an installation of contact. Both states kept neutrality here. Khomeini didn’t accept communist ideas for logical reason of their atheism. Commie Muscovy supported Saddam Hussein’s launched Iran-Iraq War by giving him weapons, and it warned Iran against their planning attack in 1982. Their relationship were installed after the end of the armed conflict between Iran and Iraq, which improved after that. Reza Pahlavi utters that he can be only as a transitional leader about anything of that I don’t care.

 

President Trump has been making unclear hints toward Cuba, answering to journalists in interviews that he and Secretary of State Marco Rubio are preparing something for this country and that it would be “honor of taking Cuba” for him.

The situation on this island worsens recently. The deprival of supplying of oil from Venezuela after ousting of Maduro isn’t a giant trouble. The country’s ineffective economy caused to living in blackout and shortages of food and water. To that adds few more foreign states who chose embargo: The USA, Israel, Argentine already share it with Paraguay, Macedonia, Hungary and Ukraine. Cutting of diplomatic ties in this March committed Ecuador, and it followed by Costa Rica whose President Rodrigo Chavez called the island a “communist regime”. Inside there, in the city of Moron, a communist party office was set on fire, but it was a minor incident because it didn’t propel to anything to that time.

America is a country is that who capable to make a change, but it will–as in Iran–a fight with a system. If the majority of the people don’t yell about freedom, therefore we shouldn’t be there.
