What a lot of chanting has been for years, is for Reza Pahlavi. And we couldn’t ask for a better replacement.
That’s who I propose, but it’s up to the Iranian people.

“Reza Pahlavi”

From your lips, to God’s ears.

The return of the Shah, not as a dictator, but in a leadership role within a Constitutional Democracy, would restore with it much of the rich Persian heritage.

Liberating Iran from the oppression of these mullahs would be a mighty act of redemption for past infractions, for any group participating (such as MEK). On the other side of regime change, ideally there would be reconciliation. That is an area where the office of the Shah could really serve the people well.

If there is to be real Democracy, people would be free to form political Parties of their choice. Remnants of the old regime might form a religious Party, MEK might establish a Party on their values, Ethnic minorities might have Parties focused on their issues and so on. Some will naturally tend to hate others based on differences in principle, but even simple competition will tend to set folks against each other.

King Bhumibol in Thailand is a great example of how one man, in the office of the Crown, could carry his Nation together through crises, drive a higher standard of prosperity, inspire higher ideals, and resolve internal political conflicts, that would otherwise erupt.

If a royal family adheres to high ideals of nobility, that can be a useful honest broker in a modern political environment, and a check on the worst possible excesses of changes in political wind.
