    ABC had a better late night Iran Crisis update in November 1979 until Spring 1980 when it evolved into ABC's Nightline program.

    Does it make me a bad person when the creepy Ayatollah died and I cheered? Yeah I did that and may he rot in hell.

    Actually, I know all about the story of Iran. I'm not a fan of the Shah, but the Ayatollah, like all fundamentalist Muslims, was dangerous. He was a woman hater and any women haters are evil. For anyone who thinks fundamentalists are fine, I have one word: 9/11. Btw, I did NOT approve of the war in Iraq (I did in Afghanistan because I hate the Taliban and wish they'd ALL die), nor did I even vote for Bush. No, I don't hate all Muslims, but the radical ones? You bet I do and so should anyone who believes in women's rights and democracy.
