    Not F14s then, and not F22s now. Iran was *the only* country besides the US to fly F14s. Today the F22 is *illegal* to sell to any other country. Even our closest allies aren't allowed to buy them. We lease nuclear armed Trident missiles to the UK, but if they wanted F22s the answer would be...

    I have no idea if he's really an asshole, or if that's just how the media portrays him. Lots of evidence that he's a decent guy too. But of course that's not a story they want to tell.

    The Shah was so in our pocket that we were in the middle of selling him our most advanced fighter jets right when he was deposed (F14s).

    I thought the CIA installed the Shah ? And they certainly didn't install the Ayatollah. We (CIA included) *liked* the Shah. We hated the Ayatollah so much that we funded Saddam Heussein to fight him all through the 80s.

    Yes, but they absolutely do not want that to come to trial and have to defend it. The same reason SAFE act charges all got plead down or never filed. They're afraid they would lose and the whole law would be gone. If that never happens they can keep threatening people with it.

    The thing is, almost any missile with a warhead over 200lbs is "nuclear capable", and Iran has had their own ballistic missiles for a long time. Probably 75% of the stuff they lobbed into Isreal is "nuclear capable". So that's not really news. But they'll throw the N word into the headline...
