Indeed, Mousavi, Prime Minister from 1981 to 1989, almost certainly had a hand in the planning of the Iranian-backed truck-bombing attacks on the U.S. embassy in April 1983 and the Marine barracks in October of that same year…It is a promising sign that Mousavi has put his violent past behind him, as has Iran for the most part, but let’s not completely forget his far-from-democratic roots.
