The slogan <em>“no taxation without representation”</em> became widely popular among the American colonists during the 18th century. It reflected the sentiment of the residents of the colonies, which felt that they didn't have the adequate representation in the British Parliament but were at the same time affected by the laws this institution passed. This ideal would eventually pave the way to the US revolutionary war.

Seeing it as a way to spread communism, the Reagan administration<em> backed the Contras</em> ( the opposition to the new government). The Contras rebels received financial and military support from the U.S., the rebels were also trained covertly by the CIA. The money for the Contras came from illegal arms sales to Iran. The funding of the Contras had been prohibited by the Congress.
<em>The official justification for the arms shipment to Iran</em> was to pay for the release of seven American hostages in Lebanon. Iran was the subject of arms embargo and any arms sales were prohibited. It turned out that the sales started even before any hostages were taken. Iran was involved in a war with Iraq and the United States feared that it would fall under the Soviet Union's influence, as the Soviet Union supported Iraq in that war.
