especially panel #5. As I recall, the right wing was trying to paint the 1960's civil rights movement as a tool of the Communists, if the Soviet Union's leadership had made grand statements about the rights of black people every chance they got, it would have demonized the movement (even more than was already happening with Nixon's "Law and Order" campaign theme) and possibly crushed it.
The Iranian people need to have the rest of the world talking as one, and not just the United States being seen as the motive force here, no matter who our president is.
