Is there any chance that the Shah could return? That is the natural state of affairs for Iran. The so-called 'Republic' was an aberration.

History doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes.

Iranian people soooooo regret for what they done in 1979 and the very majority of Iranians want Pahlavi back desperately. Khomeini was not Persian. He was an Indian piece of trash, a primitive uneducated idiot. A bunch of uneducated peasants who didn't know that backsides from their elbows overthrow a progressive government and let primitives like themselves take over and totally destroy Iran. Before the Islamic Revolution, no one in Iran needed a visa to go anywhere. Our passports were gold. Now, Iranians have to wait years just for a 30 day tourist visa or pay smugglers to take them into Turkey. Are you all happy now? I guess not. The mullahs can all go to hell together with that son of a whore Khomeini.

Javid Shah!

Please research Mashhad, a modern city with surprising modern structures. Look at the historic time line. This ilk of intellectual and material accomplishment accounts for the seeds of rebellion.
John is dead on regarding screeds both past and present. Compare the pro-Trump nationalist resurrection of awareness and calls to action this past year to the street corner SJW card table welfare sign ups and Walmart untaxed earnings wire transfers of the barry jihadist socialist years.
The barry illegal Iran deal hand out Iranian internal fund misuse is reminescent of, "The Ugly American". The Iranian population lives through decades of corruption and upheavels. Muslim fanaticism rules. Legal American citizens might note that eventually the worker bees swarm and attack.

Is this accurate? Do Persians really feel this way?

The Shah

Do you know why the Shah, at first, refused to sign illegal documents giving the Americans the right to overthrow a democratically elected Iranian Prime Minister? It was not because he was a coward (which an observer may think due to his subsequent actions, such as fleeing the country for Rome). No! According to his wife, it was because he cares so much about the Iranian constitution which forbade the Shah from appointing and dismissing Prime Ministers without parliamentary approval. Never mind that he had appointed and dismissed EVERY SINGLE Prime Minister before and after Mossadeq without parliamentary approval. Never mind that his secret service (SAVAK) tortured and murdered dissidents without trial (a position he openly supported. Never mind all the facts, he was a constitutionalist!

Do you know why the Shah allowed more freedom for women? It wasn't due to a great women's struggle which confronted him every step of the way when he tried to "put women in their place". No! According to his wife, it was because he was a feminist. Never mind that in interviews in the American press he defined a woman's role as "important in a man's life only if they're beautiful and charming and keep their femininity". Never mind that during interviews with American feminists (ON CAMERA) he said things like "What do these feminists want? What do you want? You say equality. Oh! I don't want to seem rude, but ...you're equal in the eyes of the law but not, excuse my saying so, in ability" and "you're schemers, you're evil. All of you." No! The Shah was a feminist!

The Shah's suppoerters omit details about the tens of thousands of political prisoners who were tortured and killed. I personally witnessed the shah's troops shoot protesting students in the street, and I was nearly shot myself as a result.

The insecure Pahlavi family propped themselves up using Iran's wealth to decorate lavish palaces, to buy flashy foreigh cars cars, to ride around in custom private airplanes, to buy Paris fashions, to have private French hair dressers for the family, and to funnel money to foreign bank accounts for the day they were overthrown (for the second time, third if you count his father, a peasant who gained power through a military coup).

The Shah's supporters love to point out that Iran was better off under the Shah that it is today, but they miss the point: If the West hadn't overthrown the democratically elected Mohammed Mossadegh in the 1950s, if the British--the most poisonous people in the world-- hadn't installed the Shah who was a corrupt and cowardly tyrant, there may never have been a revolution that led to the current horrible Islamic theocracy.

The point isn't that the Shah was a marginally better dictator than the current dictators. The point is that The West never should have overthrown a democratically elected government in the 1950's and maybe Iran would have been much better off today than it was under either of the two previous selfish and tyrannical regimes.

"The Shah's accomplishments"

The Shah bragged that he built libraries for children. What he did not say, but everyone knew, is that the libraries were only for the upper class. Children of the lower classes had to work. There was child labor in Iran. And virtually all of the population was lower class. Laboring children did not go to school and thus never learned to read.

The Shah was a very insightful person.
