Well put!
Many factors were involved!
I take the whole blame on Iranians, not on Jews, Muslims or Americans
I believe we, Iranians, have been going through a historical process since the arab invasion of Iran
I believe this process might be helpful for us in the long run
Major reasons are:
The clash between what we call Modernity and Traditions
This clash has been existing since mid 19th century and it is still going on
The Shah's regime was symbol of ultimate Modernity but Marxists, Islamists, Khomeinists and revolutionaries were representatives of Traditions (Islam) and they cheated people and lied to them and since many in the "traditionalists' " front were un-educated and blind to reality, accepted whatever Khomeini said
That simple!
Very well put.
There is one thing worse than Mullahs and it is MKO
, Prince Reza sent a telegram to General Velayatollah Felahie, the Chief Commander of the Iranian armed forces, offering to serve in the Iranian airforce as a fighter pilot to defend his nation.

nonesense as ever!
You shouldn't say that about wtc911...even if it is true. :-)
I knew he was a fighter jock, I just didn't know he volunteered to go fly for the Islamic Republic.
I'm suprised they didn't accept, and when he arrived throw him in prison.
It probably is a good thing that he was not accepted as most if not all of the generals that were loyal to the Shah were executed.
I think you should have known them, given the fact you were there.
Lt. General Jahanbani
Lt. General Rabiee
Major General Khosrowdad
They were with the Imperial Air Force and Air Army
Yes. Good military men one and all. It was a shameful way that they met their demise.
What does any of that have to do with my question to you about who is going to do the heavy lifting while RP is out shaking hands with dignitaries? Prince Charles was your reesearch suggestion... I researched his politics at your request and I found his recent visit to Iran! Your reply doesn't have anything to do with my other oppinion about how Royals may or may not have any political ability either.
Oh wait... Maybe I'm wrong... Check out this report... I hate it when I'm wrong! Royals DO have a natural affinity for leadership! Sorry Khashayar.

Royalty chromosome found by French geneticist - CNN, 03 August 2005
Gaining notoriety among his peers for the first ever successful cloning of an African Dung Beatle, Dr. Smith has stunned the world again by isolating the royalty chromosome. DNA searches for kings, queens, princes and princesses will begin next month. Countries will be conquered and allocated shortly after they have been assigned to kings verified by standard DNA testing. Kofi Annan will manage the state allocations. Remarkably, Annan volunteered as an initial test subject for Dr. Smith's initial research study and was found to have an extra royalty chromosome, proving beyond doubt that he is in fact the “king of kings”...

Just kidding...
1357 to 1979.
He lived one long life. lol
"nonesense as ever" ------- Nonsense? Which parts? The stuff about your hero's "pathological fear" or that the US used his sister to shame him into action or that he fled to Italy at the first sign of trouble? All that was taken straight from the CIA's own documents. Or the stuff about the great reza dynasty consisting of only two usurpers? Might as well say that calling the sky blue is nonsense.
"if you dislike these threads, simply do not participate!"----- Why? What are you afraid of? Shutting up any opposing voices is un-American (wait, you're not American) but is right in line with your hero's SAVAK tactics.
"Believe me... no body likes your comments!" -------- No, you and your fellow shahistas don't like them. That tells me that I'm hitting close to home and that's a good thing.
-----------------------------------------
Posting about another freeper behind his back is like two school-girls giggling at recess, but you do it all the time. Now, tell me what is nonsense about the CIA report I cited.
Take your hate elsewhere, please.
Did you read the post I was responding to? Please refrain from commenting until you have the whole picture.
Yes I read it. Cry me a river...elsewhere.
So "you're an ignorant fool" is not hatred? It's apparent what your position is. I'm sorry to say that you're like a little lost sheep following the shepherd. Try thinking for a change and looking at people's motives. Say hi to the other poor sheep.
