Why did I write this book? Because we abandoned the people of Iran. Jimmy the C. (former President Jimmy Carter) changed U.S. policy with absolutely no regard for how this would affect the people of Iran. Iranian friends asked me, ‘Why has your country abandoned us? You have signed our death warrants!’ And in truth, many of my dear friends died before firing squads. Americans were no longer trusted; we had betrayed our friends.” Abandoning the Shah and his people altered the course of history in the Middle East, and the world. This book shows the real Iran. Ordinary people were attracted to the freedom and higher standard of living enjoyed by Americans in their country. Unfortunately, these generous, family-oriented people were controlled and deeply influenced by the mullahs who used centuries-old traditions to keep Iranians from gaining control over their own lives. It also shows how drastic changes in America’s foreign policy endangered Americans living in Iran, in the years leading up to the Revolution.
