If my body dies, let my body die, but do not let my country die.
Then You should Blog about it ...

He is Prince Ali Patrick Pahlavi the Son of One of the Shah's Brothers:
ROYALTY AND THE PEOPLE: Prince Ali Reza Cheered by Rioters (1953)
His mother is French Polish and he is Better known as Pahlavi Eslami because at the time of the Revolution he went through some kind of Indentity Crisis and Joined the Revolution.
He was considered as a Possible heir to the Peacock Throne when the shah and Soraya were vainly trying to have a child.
You can see him as a child mentioned in the end of this clip from the British Pathe News:
//www.youtube.com/watch?v=90dkvhd-aKQ
But Since the Shah divorced Soraya because she could not have children and Married Farah Diba who gave him a Son, Crown Prince Reza became officially the heir to the Peacock Throne.
That may explain why he became enstranged with his own family and cousin 30 years later ...
But I have heard that he is not a bad fellow and works for Humanitarian causes. I think he lives in Canada or NY ...

by Peykan on Fri Jun 18, 2010 05:10 AM PDTIt had nothing to do with this topic, I just used your last post to make sure you read my comment. I asked this question because you seem to have encyclopedic knowledge on The Pahlavis and this newly surfaced prince could be of interest to you and other readers.
Cheh Rabti Dareh ?
