The Shah fell because of his own failures and his cancer. Former USSR, Iraq, etc. never wanted the Shah's fall. American press lied against the Shah, until the end of his rule and even later. The Rex cinema massacre, in 1978, with about 400 people killed burned alive was ordered by Khomeini, but American press told that Savak and Shah were responsible. And this until 1980, when the Khomeini thug told what he and his gang did there.
@Cleverman50,As for talking on Jimmy Carter & his Human Rights for Iran!! Where is he now? He still has his Habitat for humanity & his so-called Human rights centre but after he overthrow the Shah NOT EVEN ONCE he spoke about the human rights abuses by his beloved Mullahs however recently he spoke about his pleasure in what he did to Iran by saying "We have given the Iranians a historical lesson that they will never forget". Yet there R still some no-brainers like U repeating the BBC style BSes.
@Cleverman50, 1: U must read some books & take your hateful blinkers off. Read "Hostage to Khomeini" by Robert Dreyfuss. "Jimmy Carter the Liberal Left & the World Chaos" by Dr. Mike Evans. "The last Shah of Iran" by Dr. Houshang Nahavandi. Google check for "Jimmy Carter's Illegal demands on the Shah of Iran" by Professor Hilton. Visit my UTUBE channel too & watch the 10 min clip above.The days of anti-Shah propoganda had its sell by date.
@Cleverman50: 2: America Britain & the EU achieved their objrctives & continue to do so since the Carter & the British revolution of 1`979. Shah is vindicated judging by all the massive comments in the Internet sites by the majority of Iranians so feel free to be amongst the hatefull minority or amongst the well paid Iran-hater stooges of the Mullahs or the Iran's foreign enemies.
@Cleverman50,As for the Shah's cars.The Shah until his famous press meeting in1973was very popular internationaly.When he refused to renew the25Yr old oil contract of1954he was demonised&terrorised by the west.Many world leaders receive gifts.King Hosein of Jorden gave7clasic cars to the Shah.Mercedes Benz used to regularly present their best cars to him.What is important is that my father a greengrocer in south of Tehran also drove Benz.Iranis drove cars took holidays&were not jobless.Shame onU
@Cleverman50,I didnot right the books&like U&Mullahs men including Ahmaghinejad l dont clainm to have PHD.It is easy to throw figurs& just say to go look at some statistics!!!. All because U have no facts.After the Shah was replaced Anthony Parson the last UK ambassador said the truth:"Iran''s position in the world should never be higher than its neighbouring Afghanistan"&that was why Khomeini was imposed on Iran.As for the Empress remember all her orphanages cultural centresmusums in Iran!!!
@Cleverman50, U have blinkers on Yr eyes&frighten of the truth.U forget to remember Iran before the Pahlavis&the countries inline with Iran.In the70's S-Korea longed to be Iran's.We had the5th Army in the world.IranAir was2nd best internationaly.No country achieved what Iran achieved.U talk from Yr sad ass.William Showcross was the Shah's biographer he wrote:"What puzzeled memost was why the Shah's regime was represented to be the worst when it was actualy the best.Name1country that did better.
@Cleverman50,UR evil.I am an Irani&I had free education likes millions in Iran.If Iranis didnt know how to read how niversities art&culture florished during his reign?Artists musicans actors engineers pilots lawyers generals&successful businessmen who7million of them had to leave Iran when the Shah left.People were going to Iran not leaving it.We had shortage of work not workers.Iran currency was the 9th but today110of 119.As for whore wife,speak for yourself. Shame was not in your family gene.
@Cleverman50,Kinzer is a well known Mullahs lobbyist.He is a leftist full of hate for USA&he talks BS in his books&speeches.Read "JIMMY CARTER The Liberal Left&The World Chaos" by Dr Mike Evans,"HOSTAGE TO KHOMEINI" by Robert Dreyfuss,"THE LAST SHAH OF IRAN"by Dr Houshang Nahavandi.Google search"CARTER'S ILLEGAL DEMANDS ON THE SHAH"by Prof Hilton,check my UTUBE channel to see how&why UK&USA overthrow the progressive modernizer Shah in 1979.This might be taboo in the west but not for us Iranians.
Mike Savage said: "Jimmy Carter is single handedly responsible for starting up the worldwide radical Islam. By overthrowing the Shah of Iran by bringing back Ayatollah Khomeini from exile in Paris, Jimmy Carter unleashed the virus of radical Islam on the world for which he should be imprisoned." & Ronald Reagan refering to Carter's treatment of the Shah said: "WHAT WE DID TO THE SHAH IS A BLACK PAGE IN THE HISTORY OF AMERICA". Jimmy Carter is the father of the Islamic revolution of 79 in Iran.

I'm sorry to inform you sir but you are simply stating your opinion. If you objectively view the Shah & his government, as well as the culture & styles of the day, & take into account the geopolitical situation Iran was faced with, you will find that most authorities in the matter feel that he was not only a good & capable leader, but he was loving, caring & was REMOVED from power by the same outside forces (that once toted themselves as his/Iran's friends). They removed their best ally FOR OIL
Notice also I said RADICAL Islam, NOT regular Islam. As an Armenian-Frenchman, my family lived in Iran for over a hundred years in the north which was traditionally ancient Armenia. Armenians and Iranians have had their share of problems through out history, but over all have excellent relations, perhaps the best Islamic-Christian relations of any two nations through out history. Radical ANY religion is bad, & I feel for my Iranian Cousins. God Bless a FREE, DEMOCRATIC and SECULAR IRAN FOREVER!!
This man 30 years ago predicted the present! The world is now plagued with RADICAL Islam, & worldwide glut! The same civil liberties that people used to DIE/BLEED for are now given freely to people who don't appreciate them!! The world is run with this permissive attitude that rewards greed, stupidity, hate, ugliness & conformity, instead of intelligence, love, beauty, humility & truth! I blame the USA & UK's hypocritical & arrogant "World Policeman" attitude! ALL FOR OIL THEY STILL DON'T HAVE!!
روحت شاد. ایران رو ساختی و آباد کردی اما این مردم قدر ناشناس گول حزب توده،مجاهد و فدایی رو خوردن آخوند حرومزاده رو آوردن ایران. آخوند اول خوار این سیاسی هارو گائید بعد هم کون این ملت قدر ناشناس گذاشت. امروز ملت از اون گوه خوردن پشیمون هستن مثل سگ
iran and iranians will one day come back with a vengence. the world will fear the day that we finaly stand up against the fascist americans and european nations.
The Shah was a true "genius". The genius in not only seeing and knowing the past and present but also a true visionary and genius of the future. May Ahura Mazda bless his kind and loving soul.
روانش شاد باد ، تنها آرزویش آزادی سرزمین ایرانی بود که خود و پدرش آبادش کرده بودند و بیخردان و مغرضان زحمات این پدر و پسر را بیش از یکصدسال به عقب کشانده و ایران نوین را تبدیل به قتل گاه فرزندان ایران کردند به امید آزادی ایران
My dear shah since the day you left we have been thinking about it. What happend to our country is just like you predicted.. Saddly i belive iran will become Iranestan soon and our great nation will fall divided.
