Similarly, one could claim that Germany had its own “security concerns and narratives” during the 1938 Munich crisis. Is Obama suggesting that the US should have supported Mosaddegh in the midst of the Cold War, or tilted toward Iran during the Iran-Iraq War in the 1980s?
因此，奥巴马认为，伊朗人拥有“自身的安全担忧及表达方式。”这种说法完全不顾史实。同样，人们也可以说德国在1938年慕尼黑危机中有其自身的“安全顾虑及表达方式”。奥巴马是否暗示美国应该在冷战中支持摩萨台，或者在20世纪80年代的两伊战争中对伊朗表示支持？
