      You're like the lefties who say "well, you can understand the rioters and arsonists...."
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

          Look at Iran's recent history prior to 1979. A democratic government overthrown by the British and USA in 1953 and the installation of a dictator.

              You have selected a rather pronounced term "revile - To assail with contemptuous or opprobrious language; address or speak of abusively".

              I would be interested to read any evidence you can produce from among European nations or their governments today that support your contention.
