Feynoord is right about Shah being a dictator. Yes, we all say Shah was million times better than garbage khominie and all his SOB supporters. We all wish he was still in power rather then the murderous muslim regime. However, lets put in perspective. The downfall of Shah happend due to very few things going the wrong way. 1) If shah had just given freedom a liitle earlier, or 2) did not leave the country and let bakhtiar run the show 3) if Bakhtiar government could last few more months (could have happend if shah stayed), etc.. However, if it had gone right, Iran could have been a democracy (with very likely Shah as a king overseeing, while elected gov running the country), and we will be looking at a country emerging along with BRICS countries.
So, the path traveled was a tiny way off, but the end result went total Shit that Khominie and all his supporters were and are.

Well you seemed very sure he was a dictotar like you lived through it, since were about the same age my friend. what i find a joke is the fact you weren't even around when the Shah was around but your absolutely certain that he was soooooo evil because you were told he was a dictator and an evil evil man because he protect his regime or you read a few books that were written by people who are and will always be against the guy, well the same people that set u up with that mind set are to be blamed for what Our generation has today.I know a lot of Iranians that went out against the Shah and now are like che ghalati kardim che ghohe khordim.What I find a joke is everyone with your mindset still take enjoyment of blaming the Shah for everything the IR are doing still, As I mentioned before he has been dead for 30+ plus years try to find a another person to blame man, How come you don't bash Khomeini or his policies? Atleast with Khomeini you've lived it and not gone with reading what others want you to believe about him.
