If we installed a shah, couldn't we do it again?

Why stop there? Syria, Jordan and Lebanon governments should also be overthrown. Then gas would be cheaper in America.

It's because many Iranian students support the Iranian gov't. But if we can gain their support, we can install a new Shah.

We're in the process of getting involved.
What you're witnessing right now is the attempt at cooperation of the US and the UN in applying pressure. We spent some time on diplomacy, and we toppled the Iraqi government as an object lesson.
Take notes. What you see taking place over these last 2 years or so will eventually be denied by Democrats trying to snow you into voting for them with some line like "Bush's rush to invade Iran".
If you remember, we did the same things with Iraq. Bush spent 18 painfully slow months deliberating with Congress and the UN, offering ultimatums to Saddam, allowing him to disarm on his own, and only after that 18 months did we invade, but Democrats are now calling it "the rush to war".
It's up to you to avoid being suckered by stupidity like that.

From the question, I am assuming you believe they are not encouraging the overthrow of the Iranian government. But if they were, they probably wouldn't tell us about it. Who knows what the government is up to?

Shouldn't Iran help us overthrow our Gov't?

Well dude, this is a different Iran. I wont comment on whether or not that actually happened, but I will say that even if it did todays CIA is not that CIA. Those people were not slouches in any way at all.

College students are the worst possible people to support. They are not very bright.

Unfortunately for you Iranian students don't need you because they are not complaining.

No, we have no right to intervene in the internal affairs of others, we are not the super cop on the block, that's why we have terror attacks, its our foreign policy

I think US should clean first in their own country instead trying to impose their politic (preferably by force) to the rest of the world...
