    What we are taking about is claiming to have a cross-political revolution combing various religions, ethnicities, and economic outlooks (capitalism, socialism, communism, anarchism, etc) - only to completly fuck them over after the fact.

          This was caused in part by the Iranian Supreme leader calling for the overthrow of the Ba’athist government, not by the betrayal of the revolutionaries. It was not a result of the betrayal. This is… I don’t know what you’re trying to do here, but it doesn’t seem cogent.
