Who is really out of Touch...Mr, Emil
by Freedom5 on Thu Nov 19, 2009 08:53 AM PSTReza Shah had ambitious plans for modernizing Iran. These plans included developing large-scale industries, implementing major infrastructure projects, building a cross-country railroad system, establishing a national public educationpublic system, reforming the judiciary, and improving health care. He believed a strong, centralized goverment managed by educated personnel could carry out his plans.
Reza Shah tried to avoid involvement with Britain and the Soviet soviet union. Though many of his development projects required foreign technical expertise, he avoided awarding contracts to British and Soviet companies. Although Britain, through its ownership of the Angle - Iranian Oil company, controlled all of Iran's oil resources, Reza Shah preferred to obtain technical assistance from , Germany , France, Italy, and other European countries. This created problems for Iran after 1939, when Germany and Britain became enemies in World War II.Britain insisted that German engineers and technicians in Iran were spies with missions to sabotage British oil facilities in southwestern Iran. Britain demanded that Iran expel all German citizens, but Reza Shah refused, claiming this would adversely impact his development projects.
because Reza Shah refused to expel the German nationals, Britain and the Siviet Union inaved Iran , arrested the Shah and sent him into exile.
After the Wold War II HIM M.R Pahlavi replaced his father on the throne. He wanted to continue the reform policies of his father.Domestically, he advocated reform policies which included land reform, extension of voting rights to women, and the elimination of illiteracy. Major plans to build Iran's infrastructure were undertaken, a new middle class began flourishing and in less than two decades Iran became the undisputable major economic and military power of the Middle East.
The reform in IRAN included land reform, extension of voting rights to women, and the elimination of illiteracy. Major plans to build Iran's infrastructure were undertaken, a new middle class began flourishing and in less than two decades Iran became the undisputable major economic and military power of the Middle East.
The Shah's government suppressed its opponents with the help of Iran's security and intelligence secret police, Savak. Such opponents included members of the Communist Tudeh party, who tried to assassinate the Shah and his son on multiple occasions.
By the mid- 1970s, relying on increased oil revenues, the Shah began a series of even more ambitious and bolder plans for the progress of his country and the march toward the "Great Civilization". But his socioeconomic advances increasingly irritated the clergy which leads to 1979 reveloution.
In conclusion every country has secret intelligence agency including the most democratic countries including the US, Canada.. Even Sweden (called IB ) and if you had done your due diligence and study a little about Iran and world history including the cold war you would know that Iran like the other countries in the word needed a secret service to protect IRAN from its enemies within and outside of its boarder. Now here is a quote from a friend
" for lived in the 70's........ We shouldn't even call those 6 million morons who took part in the 1979 "revolution" Iranians, more like Americanized hippy-wannbe liberal douche-bags, islamist Arab wannabes, and paranoid communists..... And now all these baffons are regretting every second of their ignorant action
Now let me ask you Mr.Emil which one of the above group you belong to ?
Not the flip side of the same coin
by irannostalgia.com on Thu Nov 19, 2009 05:43 AM PSTAs much as I would NOT like any sort of monarchy returning to Iran and as much as I dislike people who took money unsupervised and then call themselves HIM .. I am scandalized that young iranians might compare the ayatollahs with the monarchy. Sincerely the Ayatollahs have brought major shame to iranians, have displaced many of us and have directly or indirectly been responsible for the death of probably several millon people, if you count wars and terrorism.
At least the Pahlavis gave good image of Iran and treated minorities, woman and the arts with respect.
Please we need to know what to appreciate and recognize the differences.

by ramin parsa on Thu Nov 19, 2009 01:49 AM PSTYou're the classic little man with a little brain. Thirty years later and you're still jerking the same old lies and perversions, lies that according to a former revolutionary, Akbar Ganji, were fabricated so as to "win the revolution for us." Step out of the darkness, "Emil," the truth can be so refreshing and healthy.
Aren't you tired of your pathetic lies by now?
Cheers.

dear Emil,
by IIAF on Wed Nov 18, 2009 09:59 PM PSTYou are so short sided and misinformed. How can you generalize about everyone being this or that, grow up, read a little and stop judging what you have no clue about. People like you and ideas like yours is what keeps us in the stone ages. Grow Up a Little.
Out of touch...
by Emil on Wed Nov 18, 2009 08:17 PM PSTShah/monarchy or Akhond/Islam, none of them is in touch with people, again they are two side of the same coin.
Mohammad Reza Pahlavi was a brutal dictator who ruled Iran with his vicious secret police SAVAK. Pahlavies were all corrupted to the bone.
The whole army was bunch of corrupted thieves form the soldiers all the way up to the four star Generals, same with the rest of government etc...
None of these videos could/would change the realities of the past or the history.
