SUPPORT WTFA ON PATREON

Badger: Hello, White House? I just wanted to make sure I had the timeline right. In 1951 Iran had a democracy and chose to nationalize its oil fields, so the CIA helped overthrow that and replace it with the monarchial Shah, who was in turn overthrown by theocrats, who have been understandably warring one way or another with the West since then. Badger: Obama's administration had carefully worked out a deal to keep Iran from building nuclear weapons, but Trump pissed all over that deal for...reasons...and so Iran didn't pursue nuclear weapons anyhow, but Netanyahu has been saying for twenty years they would any day now, so...Trump decided it was time to bomb Iran's nuclear facilities. And missed. Badger: Therefore today Trump says everyone can buy oil from Iran again. Do I have this all correct? Because laying it all out like that it sounds BATSHIT INSANE.
