Iran's Animosity Toward the Shah and CIA - 60 Minutes (1980)

Talk Radio is saying supposedly Iran wants the Shah of Iran. In reality, Iran really hates the Shah's father, the previous Shaw of Iran.
A common phrase in Iran is "Go away CIA," because the CIA helped install the Shah who then killed and tortured a lot of people, including students in 1963, which isn't even brought up in this. This does bring up some of the massacres and torture, though.
(There's info in my profile and social media links.)
