    My dad tells me stories of when he used to go to Iran before the revolution happened. He went with my grandfather by car, which was a 6-8 day drive without proper airconditioning. They also went to Turkey and Egypt to buy carpets cheaply and then sell them back home and by doing so my grandfather could travel whilst making a small profit.
    In Iran my dad met a woman with whom he kept in touch by sending letters. He was 21 when the revolution happened and got to experience it through the letters that woman wrote.
    Let's hope the people of Iran can get the power to free themselves from the vile and oppressive regime that currently rules the country.

Hopefully Indonesia wont be like some countries in the middle east, it will be nearly impossible to make u turn once religious policing is legitimized and institutionalized. Once it does, only conflict through violence is the only way, sadly, for religious rezime to relinquish their hold to absolute power.

Lots of the people who were "shocked" by the CIA coup would have been perfectly OK with a post-Stalinist dictatorship there. Of course, people DO forget that the CIA helped Khomeini round up Iranian communists before it became obvious the Iranian revolution was getting out of their control.

And whether most channels mention it or not, it's almost common knowledge among Iranians that such a convenient coup wouldn't happen all on its own without the help of a certain American intelligent agency, and one of our own at the time, Savak.

      Well the 1979 Revolution is a bit of a misnomer. The Revolution began in February 1978 and ended in January 1979. Revolutions take a long time to build up steam, so this Women’s Revolution might take months, but what is clear is that people have been pushed too far, especially the youth, and they are willing to die for change. That’s a dangerous precedent for any regime, and I imagine as crackdowns ramp up, so will the tactics of protesters.

    A popular restaurant in our town is run by an Iranian family. It's mostly the sons now but it was the parents when it opened and they are from rural Iran and deeply religious. They fled in '79 because they knew exactly what kind of a shit show the country was going to become.... and they were right,
    They are not hopeful at this time. The apparatus of repression runs wide and deep in Iran, the institutions of the state are very powerful and were set up to combat this very scenario. The IRGC, which is NOT part of the country's military and does NOT answer to the government, regularly trains for it.
    Also, there is no obvious successor to the regime because none has ever been given a chance to take root. They fear that this series of protests will just lead to another massacre or if there is some change to the regime, it will be something even worse which takes over.

      Biblical law has actually changed across history. Particularly in Judaism which had a Written and Oral Bible for the very reason of being able to update it over time. Judaism is actually a Matrilineal (the religion and culture is decided by the mother) culture because a High Priest of Judea thought that the former Patrilineal tradition was unfair to rape victims. So he changed it in the 1st century BCE. Judaism is much harder to change today since the Oral Torah was written down in the 2nd century CE, but it still does change which is why you have different denominations today.

      There's a difference between state sponsored terrorism - and stateless, or quasi-state/pariah state terrorism.
      I think the ideal situation, that is one which causes the least amount of instability in Iran, would be for a moderate secular faction to seize power peacefully upon the death of Ali Khamenei without any foreign intervention.

    Iranians are highly cultured people who value education - unlike many of their neighbours. It was unlikely that they would have accepted this kind of rule forever...they're not puppets...they think about their situation and they consider what is wrong in their society. I have every respect for them as people, but the government should not have expected an easy ride, knowing their questioning nature and intellectual outlook on life

    I was doing my MBA in the latter half of the 70s. My South Asian city was a popular destination for middle class Iranian students. (Top end went to US, Western Europe). All subsidized partly or wholly by the Shah. You could see that these students were politically active.
    The revolution benefited the mullahs and ayatollahs but was started by students who had some imaginary grudge against their ruler. (Never bite the hand that feeds you). I hope these former students have regretted rebelling against the Shah and bringing in Khomeini, Khameini, Sulaimani and other henchmen of the Devil.

      Oprn minded pppart of Islamists wanted to achieve goals of Islam while the radicals wanted to enforce rules of Islam. Khomeini was supposed to be leader Islamic scholars after revolution but seized power instead and purged open minded Islamists. Ayatullah Modarres was open minded and didnt agree with foricng people to do something or forbid them from something. He believed that people should be informed of bad things but free to do it.
