A Story About Richard Nixon, Anwar Sadat And The Shah's Funeral

"Courageous, sir? It isn't courageous to stand up for a friend." 🔥🔥

I could listen to Nixon telling stories all night long.

Once you are down, you see who is a class act and who is not.

May our beloved Shah, President Sadat, and President Nixon rest in peace. Their wisdom and elegance are sorely missed in these times. Happy Persian New Year!

I will never forget the interview on 60 Minutes when Anwar Sadat called Ayatollah Khomeini a lunatic. Probably the most honest statement I’ve ever heard from any politician that I know of.

We are sadly lacking in these sort of leaders today.

President Sadat was a great man of honour and vast majority of Iranian people never forget what President Sadat did for HIM The Shah. 🙏🏼 RIP all these 3 great men 🙏🏼

"Courageous, sir? It isn't courageous to stand up for a friend." A friend in need, is a friend indeed. When I hear about Egypt, I see an image of President Sadat. I have become to respect President Nixon the more I hear from him. May all three RIP.

These three powerful men, the Shah of Iran, President Sadaat and President Nixon were great. All of them. I have never been tired to watch their interviews and documentries.

An Iranian here, R.I.P Mr. President

Man, could we use an intelligent man like Nixon as president today. Especially with so many overseas conflicts and problems.

Anwar Sadat was a very principled man. There is a great quote from his autobiography which I will never forget: Tactical deception, yes. Ethical deception, never.

God blessed president NIXON From iran

President Sadat of Egypt is loved by today's Iranian youth for hosting our Shah in his last days. He was a true friend, who ended up paying with his life when he was assassinated by the Muslim brotherhood the following year. Our parents' generation so shamefully exiled the Shah of Iran while he was suffering from terminal cancer and they wanted to execute him if they could get their hands on him and further bring shame and trauma to the Iranian national psyche. The way Carter, Giscard d'Estaing and other western leaders also treated our Shah and replaced him with Khomeini is a blot on the western political history. Not only it was a policy with disastrous consequences for the Iranian people but also the whole world has been dealing with state sponsored terrorism spread by the Islamic Ayatollahs and their proxies.

Wish he was our president now. My dad was military and as I watched what our government did to Nixon my family we were was sickened. My dad put no faith in our country having a chance of being genuine after that. He died shortly after so was spared today's world.

Anwar Sadat died for peace. In any language, blessed are the peacemakers they will be called children of God. ☮️

As a young kid I appreciated Nixon's clarity of thought. Forty five years later, I appreciate him more.

As someone who loves history I love to hear these stories directly from the person who was involved, imagine listening to a Roman emperor talking how he had visited Egypt and and what exactly he talked about to the pharaoh!

Loyalty is in short supply

Its a pleasure and a joy to actually be able to listen to an articulate former president,
