- Farah Pahlavi was the last queen and empress of Iran. For 20 years, she was on the throne and bathed in luxury. But in 1979, after the Iranian revolution, she had to flee the country with her husband and children under the threat of a death sentence. Since then, her life has completely changed. Where is she now? And how does she look 44 years later?

Iran was a beautiful country before Islamic revolution.
But the Sha was burning money like there was no tomorrow!
@vortex162 And now Iran has no money (relatively speaking) And Iranians are better with the zealots, than the Shah.
Not from all the protests I've seen in Iran.@@lynnhauenstein4136
Islam, do you now what are you saying
Some things were nice, but the police repression was awful. The nice thing is that iranian girls could use western fashion for dressing.
I was teaching English in Iran back in 1978 and was there when the revolution broke out. I was working teaching the Iranian Navy in Rasht and in a small seaside town called Bandar-e Pahlavi The Shah was trying to give an education to naval recruits when they entered service. Iran was a country of two parts; in some ways quite modern and in others very backward. Women dressed in a very Western style, mini-skirts and all. I was very struck by what a good looking race the Iranians were, the women in particular. But at the same time there was a large contingent of more conservative Iranians (mostly devout Muslims) who strongly opposed the westernization of their country. And although there was a lot of wealth, there was also a lot of poverty. The brutal secret police SAVAK were used to suppress dissent, often torturing and killing those they saw as a threat. I was once called into my employers' office and a private conversation I had had in a restaurant with some friends was relayed back to me, and I was warned about speaking about certain things openly. When I was there there was a massive earthquake in a town called Tabas, hundreds of kms away from Rasht. But we experienced the terrifying effects of the earthquake even that far away from the epicentre. My girlfriend (who was also teaching) and I could see the discontent in the people and knew that something bad was coming down the road. We gave in our notice and began changing our Iranian money for Dollars and Swiss Francs. We were finally able to end our contract just as the revolution broke out. When we got to Tehran to get a train out of the country, all hell broke loose. Buildings were on fire and people were running around the streets with firearms, the airports had closed down as had the trains, and even the main bus station wasn't operating. My girlfriend and I took cover in the main train station and a local taxi-driver, who had seen my girlfriend crying, came over and told us to follow him to his taxi. He drove us about twenty miles outside the city to a small town in the middle of nowhere where a bus was waiting heading for Turkey. I offered to pay him but he refused to take any money. I bless that man to this day.
Shahs' were traitor, nothing but western puppet.
What an experience man. God bless the man who rescued you. God bless you man. How old are you now I wonder?❤
@@wifil532 Old very old.
@@aucourant9998 Am sure you've lived a wonderful life. God bless you ❣️
@@wifil532 Yes, I have, a very interesting and wonderful life. Every day is a joy. May I wish you a wonderful life too. God bless you.
my wife used to work for the family of Mahmoud Diba who was the brother of the king. She first began as a nanny and than was promoted as a cook and close confidant of the wife, Layla Diba. On some occasions the queen would stay with the family and upon doing so she and my wife met through her excellent cooking. Furthermore, the queen offered my wife to come work for her, but my wife declined given her devotion to Mrs Diba. Upon the death of Mr Diba on September 1998, just three months after the purchase of our home, I was invited to attend his wake along with my wife at their home and there I met her majesty the queen. A very gracious lady and I had to bow before her because I wasn’t accustom to being in the presence of royalty like my wife was. A memory I will never forget
I think you got all the names mixed. To those who don't know anything about the Pahlavi dynasty, they will only get confused.
@@zackoneandonly
Mixing different names and people
Mahmud diba??
Who is that guy
Forget the money, jewels, etc. every crowned head of state has them, but this woman was forward thinking and a champion for women everywhere. She is a credit to her country and should be revered as a hero, not a villain. God (Allah) bless her.
this woman has only western values which does not represent the majority if Iran
@@skrmacs4815your comment is not true at all. Please educate yourself on Iranian women and their fight for their rights. Their courage and residency is admired by women all across the globe.
Thank you for your nice comment except Iranians do not use the word Allah in their language. It is Arabic word and not Persian. Persian language is an Indo-European language and Arabic is hiebru based.
100% agree. Her impact on Iran was a positive one. After she fled, women’s rights went down the toilet. Without her on the throne, women were relegated to dark kitchens and domestic drudgery.
@@skrmacs4815the majority of MALE Iran.
Remember hearing her speak years ago, she was so poised and wise. I was a girl then and greatly impressed by her. Glad to know she is well and with family.
Her Majesty is truly radiant, Her family is beautiful. I hope the Iranian women find freedom before Her passing, the world is changing very quickly these days.
There will be no Iran in the next decade....
World is changing very fast today but not the radical mindset of few people.😊
امیدوارم روزی این جهمبوری اسهالی آخوندی سرنگون شود و ما همدیگر را در ایران ببینیم وشاه عزیزمان در ایران دفن شوند ، امیدوارم ولیعهد ما در ایران شاه سوم شوند و ایران را دوباره آباد و بیشرفت و همه ایرانیان ایران دوست ، این روز را با هم جشن بگیریم
Thanks for sharing ♥️ beatuitful let's pray that this country and every country will be FREE , no fighting no wars no dictatorship or opression of people
Thank you dear Farah Pahlavi for all your great love and endurance
I am a Pakistani Canadian. I worked briefly in Iran in 1978 during last days of Shah. It was a wealthy nation. I am sad to see the state of the old queen but I wish her and her family well.
سر آپکی بات دلچسپ ہے۔ آپ کا ایران میں کیا شغل تھا؟ کیسے تھے وہ دن؟

That's what Islamic rule and laws do! From a Muslim here!
@@crioulom120truth Worth Fighting For
She has so much class and has done so much for Iran! I hope she gets to see a free Iran again!
What do you mean by "a free Iran"? The democratic Iran of Mohammed Mosadeqh was overthrown by the US and replaced with the Shah and his US trained brutal SAVAK intelligence service, which turned Iran into a police state.
It wasn't free when she was there.
Her husband was a US puppet.
He ran a brutal regime
The women had freedom as in the west.
She was elegant ,gave bird to nice children.
Sha came down with cancer and past in usa hospital.
This story goes from "an interesting life" to hoping the Iranian Ayatulahs will be overthrown soon.
Free to be a US/Israeli puppet?
Just by seeing this commentary I wish for Iranians to have that life again. They were free people, women with no covering. They lived as true PERSIANS.
Thank you, god bless our king Reza shah II Pahlavi.
Now women die if you show your hair, so sad

In the 80’s we bought the home in Williamstown MA of the home where the former empress of Iran and her family lived while her son
attended Williams College.
She had a wonderful reputation around the town. She was always gracious and kind, and her children as well.
Unfortunately , she lost 2 children to suicide, a son and a daughter. My heart goes out to her. No greater loss than this.
It must haunt their relatives.
I wish her well, and her family.
PS: There was a bumper sticker on the lid of the commode of the master bedroom,
“ Up your assatollah.” garment
How fitting.
There was one interesting episode. About a month after a cousin of Reza Pahlavi’s was murdered on a street in Paris.
A woman with a beautiful flowing garment and very expressive perfume came to
my door. One of my beautiful Afghan Hounds was sitting there . ( The name of her breeder’s kennel where she was born was Pahlavi.)
I told the woman that the family had moved.
I have always worried that she may have been sent to my home to see if the Pahlavi family still lived there.
I had been cleaning so my clothing was not fancy, and there was my Afghan Hound in all of her glory.
The wife of a friend of mine was in the employ of the Empress at the time of the revolution.
She was given a signed blank cheque and told to get out as fast as possible.
His wife did not take advantage of it. Taking only what she as owed.
They stole thousands of millions of dollars from Iranian people when they left the country,100 millions of dollars in his name outside Iran.And Iranian peoples was living in poverty. What a shame!😢
Some people born to be stupid..
11/12/23...I remember the Shaw of Iran as a very handsome + wise leader. And his wife was a beautiful + well educated/well spoken Queen. The Shaw was ill + died as Iran was having political problems.
AND the Queen really was a "close copy" of our First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy....
The citizens sure messed up for the uprising :D
Shah was an extreme womanizer and cheated on his wife two or three times a week!!! Now she is getting even 😅
Her Majesty is a GREAT LADY.
Puppet 😂😂😂
@@abdulgaffarchowdhury5255you're thinking like a buffalo 🐃
Beautiful poised wise Farah Pahlavi has gone through so much, may God bless her with peace, good health and happiness
I was around 11-12 yrs old when my father as diplomat were stationed in Tehran. It was the reign of Shahansah Aryamehr, as I recalled. At young age, me and my family we would tour the city and country and I can visualize that there is NO extreme poverty or sadness or that sort of things. Everybody was happy. I talk to my Iranian friends and they praised highly of the royal family. When we were invited to international football event, where the Shah attended, people all over the stadium cheered him rigorously. That’s when I believed that the people loved the royal family. We went to the holy city of Qom and the Ayatullahs greeted us as royal guests and warm hospitality, even though they knew that we are Sunnis. About the dress code; Iranian women wearing mini skirts walk side by side with one wearing cadar/niqab. I only see harmony. 3 years after we left Iran, revolution erupted. Until today, I don’t understand what is really going on there. I will visit Iran once again, God’s willing, someday to tour this beautiful country.
The Shah only focused on developing the cities but completely ignored the rural areas where the majority of the people lived. You only saw the cities.
@@user-fd6pc8nx9cnow after the ayotollahs took over in1979 in the so called revolution otherwise known as orthodox clergy not even cities are taken care of.
@@user-fd6pc8nx9c Sooooo, the Khomeini's really improved things?
Thank you from IRAN SHIRAZ.❤🤍💚🙏
@@user-fd6pc8nx9c Im from rural area in southern Iran and was 11 years old during that catastrophe in 1979. We were happy and in progress. The great SHAH gave my family land and by sending health and education corps improved our rural area living standards. We were proud to be an IRANIAN. Now what?
So very sad what happened to this country
Watching how happy that country used to be under their rule is so sad knowing how oppressed it is now. 😕
Unfortunately the west wanted a puppet in power for oil and policing that area. The Shah was weak and a coward and his master's did not understand the changes in the country and abandoned him,keeping his family for future use
This is very tragic but yet a beautiful story. I can't imagine having to leave her country that she obviously loved so much. Its clear she loved her husband very much. Losing your country, your husband, and two of your children had to have been so very hard. She's a very strong woman.
I was flying to Paris from Karachi on Nov 4th, 1978. Our flight made an unscheduled stop in Theran and picked up the queen and her staff on our way to Paris.
She is a great Lady with a big heart, God bless her.
.my father in law was a diplomatic envoy to Iran and worked with the Shah. They had wonderful memories of their time there.
A truly kind and gracious lady who has had too much tragedy in life but who continues on to inspire and give hope to people. May Allah Bless and Keep Her Most GRACIOUS Imperial Majesty!
Her jewellery n tiaras are the most beautiful n luxurious that I've ever seen compared to other countries' queens.
I agree..stunningly beautiful jewellery
It is on display in Tehran - it's huge, I visited it a couple of years ago.

@laetitialogan2017 The people of Iran were poor. She wore the most expensive tiara. That's why they are kicked out.
@@alexisgreene8952 Quite right. That kind of wealth is obscene when there's poverty
What an amazing woman. Life as a beautiful Queen married to a handsome Shah...a fairy tale.
Giving birth to their handsome children heirs .... happiness beyond. Alas life was perfect.
However the Gods do not allow such happiness. My dear uncle would say the Gods are jealous. Given the many sorrows incredible has survive ....I adore her beauty and her strength. May God bless and share her strength to other women in the world.
The most amazing Queen of the world based on the work she did for her country..in short 20 yrs.
I’ve been lucky to meet Iranians since 1980 when they fled to America. I guess knowing them for 40 years I may be a rare American. I really don’t think I could say anything negative about any that I have met. It was always so sad to hear them say they could never visit Iran or they would face a quick death. I can’t imagine never seeing my parents or family again. Some parents put their kids on planes after the Shah left.
Yes and look at what is happening in England.
You must be a man?!
@@BruceWayne-zk5jcWhat is happing?
@@BruceWayne-zk5jc Dont confuse iranians with the shit that is drifting into England .Those are mostly North Africans who have travelled to Italy and then to France. Persians who escaped the revolution are different type of people altogether and chances are,if you met one ,you wouldn't know they were Persian or even Middle eastern. I live where there are lots of Persian families who have been here for over 40 years. They are fully integrated and run all sorts of businesses.
@@Mercmad you mean the ones with jewels , collateral and money to offer to another places ..... asking for alms from innocents .. shame!!
I met iranian engineering student at adamson university. Iranians are loving people
Farah Diba,what a magnificent queen,has and will be the most beautiful Empress ever
😅
Wonderful documentary of a very brilliant & amazing woman. Much gratitude for sharing her story. I loved every minute of it.
Me too!
❤️🙏❤️
A tragedy losing two children.
Beautiful story of love and resilience
It may be a story of love, but it's easy to be resilient with lots of money stashed away in the world's banks and she doesn't look as if she is wanting in clothes or jewelry at least. There are stories of life in Iran not being as nice as she wants to remember under the Shah - the celebratory affair held was not the only reason for the uprising - and although I do not condone anything that has happened with Iran since the revolution, I am saying that Iran was not such a great place to be under the Shah either.
Over the years I have met in California many Iranian refugees. Every one was extremely educated, spoke several languages and very cultured. Many educated in France.
A wonderful portrait of the story of Farrah, the Queen of Iran. Calm and eloquently presented. Thank you. I often wondered what happened to her.
She bought amazing pieces to help curate the national museums. Very current and ahead of her time!
Thank you for writing your book and sharing your life with us. Your husband is golden with God.
the oldest son went by "mike" owned a barista long before starbucks came and the young boy loved france, shocked when i found out who his parents were, looked like normal everyday people. the family stayed close. they got out with their lives. that was back long ago, she was beautiful.
He might have been 20 years older, but he was a smart, attractive man. It's so long ago now. Iran seemed to go backwards into the dark ages, especially with their attitudes towards women.
You can thank the West for killing Iran democracy, and ruined countries like Afghanistan, Lybia... West only wants to destabilize countries to their own benefit and exploitation. They dont care if a country is run by Taliban or ISIS extremists just that it has to be a western puppet like the Sha.
Im honored to say I am many times mistaken as this gracious woman, by looks and grace. Bless her.
👍👍👍，🤔️ Iran could have been much different from today if not for the revolution !
i think you will find that from a causality perspective - the Iranians did not want to become westernised.
Truth is the Shah and Empress were wasting money while a lot of Iranians were starving. Greed has consequences.
@@user-nw2po8km5k And Iran under the Ayatollah and Mullahs are a lot more poorer, starving and oppressed with tyranny by these barbarians.
He spent millions on a lavish party in the desert he invited Kings and Queens rock stars movie stars its on RUclips amazing
That was absolutely not a revolution !!!!!!
But a plan that England , Us and European countries had for Iran and the middle east.
This is truth behind that so called ( revolution! ) which was not by iranian people . Western Media’s can not hide the truth forever ..
Long live the queen ❤ She has a special place in our hearts.
Overseas Iranian people must get her back to Iran....and form a democratic country.... with equal rights and freedom to all genders......
@@gautambatwar7231name another one? Equal rights doesn’t mix with conservative religions.

Was it democratic when she was there?@@gautambatwar7231
The Empress Farah will always shine in this world! God bless her and her descendants.❤
The Empress is a full of resilience and determination coupled with grace & dignity.
America a refuge for those in need,let's pray that America continues to be a strong country for all,what a great lady she is.
America is probably the culprit in disorganizing peaceful nations & causing civilian wars, havoc & ruin in many many countries! Meddling, capitalist with 0 natural resources always dibbling in other countries they are sooo far removed & distant from. Just like their cousins the colonisers who cook bland food
America in 1978 was the cause of Shah's Fall
Carter got rid of him
Oh... the old days of Iran, before the 1979 revolution 😢
she has certainly paid her dues bless her heart
What a great review about wonderful ladies life. This is what a queen really is. Concerned for the people that she rules over and loving her husband and children.😊
Oh goodness, my I often wondered what happened to her, she is beautiful..❤
Met many Persian students at university in England. Cultured, generous, wonderful people.
Thank you for information on this Beautiful Lady ! I have wondered over the years whatever happened to this Royal Family ! Glad to know that she has these BEAUTIFUL GRAND CHILDREN. May God Bless This Fam ! Blessings from Michigan USA
Brought tears to my eyes… love and best wishes from India 😢
What a respectful, noble lady..❤
Very sad about her two children...
It’s so sad to see the fall of Iran from a progressive society to a regressive one. It’s a reminder of what religion does to people and nations. The great Persia with its great past reduced to a theocratic state due to an ideology imported from the Arabian peninsula.
Thank you for showing some of the details of her life and the sad outcome of Iran today!
I see in her...the innerstrenght, courage, beauty, intellect from the Irian woman in her country!!! Would be such an Blessing if tgere were no dictators in Irian, just plain Democration! May The Almighty His Holy Blessings 🙏🙌🙌🙏 Shines Upon Queen Farah Diba, her Beloved Kids and their Family and All Irian people included the Nomadic people of Irian❤❤❤❤❤❤
Im honored to say I am many times mistaken as this gracious woman, by looks and grace. God Bless her.
It’s ironic how they got rid of people they believed made their life worse but it was when they were gone that everything went to the trash. The basically left an empty seat for the criminals. This lady doesn't need her country to survive (another thing is if with all her loses is she happy or not) but it seems that having such a progressive empress could have been beneficial for Iran.
I mean English monarchy is the richest one and yet England’s stability can't even be compared with Iran. Same for basically every country that still has a monarchy (constitutional monarchy not absolutism like in Arabia Saudi Arabia, those are just a bunch of rich people who like the title of a title and absolute power).
All those who got ride of theirs in the last 100 years instead of a fair government have dictators and criminals making the decisions just look at Russia and China.
Born in 1980 , one of the reasons for wishing to time travel is to visit Iran in the 70s. All gone by today
Shah of Iran was our friend.

The fact is, this is generally true to any countries, although 90 % of civilians support a 21st century rules or laws and modern society, the other 10 % of dictatorship mindset are capable to ruin the country. What a wonderful 20 years that Iran had to experience. I hope that generations have a balanced mindset, the life between ideology and peaceful religion teachings, not a radical extremism.
It looks like she came from a magnificent time of the history! Her presence , her pictures, her attitudes gives life to a living empress! There are no king and empress in our time compare to this two ! Her activities was 100 years ahead of time! Women in Iran had the right to vote years before Swiss and many other European countries!
They mage history with being the rulers and even when they left! After them the whole Middle East lost its establishment in peace and progress! !
She and her husband tried to modernize Iran
What a beautiful, loving, and forward thinking woman, I have great respect for her and how she has gracefully suffered in her life. I join her in her wish for the freedom of the women in Iran. I wish her happiness and good health all her life.
The most majestic
Empress of Iran 🇮🇷
A marvelous personality ✨️ Brilliant example for her Family and the world 🌎
I am proud to have had the privilege to know the most beautiful person of the world 🌎,
Amazing and interesting person
But what a Life and the Chaos and tragedy of the fear of the loss of life on her Children and on herself?
Thank you for the great video ❤❤
I’m not a monarchist but they were so much more kind and progressive than the Mullahs.
Thank you for sharing.
In 1979 I did my matriculation and we were aware of what happened in Iran but since childhood Shah Iran and Queen Farah Deeba were fascinating personalities in our social discussions like fairy tales... 0:44
בקיצור היא היתה מלכה אמיתית בכל רמ"ח אבריה. כל הכבוד
I had some peripheral contact with her highness related to property in Santa Barbara. The security was mind boggling and I thought personally devoted. Tragic dignity
This was great!! Thank you!
I lived in Iran during 1969/1971. They ruled their country together. Both trying to bring there country into the western style. The country was starting to thrive. It’s a shame things changed. I saw a lot of changes for the good and bad.
That what their mistake, make people of different culture be western style. The soul of people dont forgive.
She is such a great woman with great hope for her people.
wonderful documentary
I was a hairstylist working in Novi Michigan (next to Dearborn) and I worked with and for the Iranian community there. Such beautiful, sweet, kind and funny friends I made. ❤️
I saw a picture of Tehran under the Shah, it looks like Hollywood in the 60's
She reminds me of Bible queen Esther: of persia. May she get to see her country men and women set free from tyrannical rulers at hand
The emperor in the Book of Esther was Xerxes of Persia, but the book has a different name for the emperor.
What a wonderful woman! What class.
What a fantastic story… thanks to the person that produced this historical link🎉🎉🎉
Absolutely rivetting. Thank you so much and also to the comment below for first hand knowledge. So good to learn.
The people of Iran got exactly what they wanted. Back to the dark ages and brutality. Iranian women under the Shaw were totally free to be whatever they chose. try that now? lol.
Shah spent all the oil capital on Iran and its people. And Iran made terrible progress from 1970 to 1979, but it was not pleasant for the West, then 15% of the people were deceived by the leftists and Islamists and brought down the Shah. Also, the leftists and Islamists were armed. And the Shah's supporters did not dare to come to the street and defend the Shah. In short, there was no revolution in Iran, Iran is occupied. And now the people of Iran are shouting the name of his son. They want the return of the Pahlavi kingdom.
The king also asked the army not to confront the deceived people. He said, "I don't want to preserve my monarchy by spilling the blood of the Iranian people." This is why we Iranians love him and want the return of the Pahlavi kingdom
The Shaw was a one of a kind. I was a teen who admired and respected him over any other world leader. @@tmt1gaming946
Long Live The Pahlavi 💙👑
Thank you for telling this story. It was bittersweet. God Bless the Queen.
Thank You!
Such a great story. Feel sad for Iran to have missed such an amazing and brave queen. My best wishes for her and her family
Farah is an inspiration.
Keep it up ,Empress Farah
Allah protect you 🙏 and children, and whole family
Excellent documentary. Thanks.
Thank you ❤❤❤
I was young when I remember she married the Shah ..about 1959….she was beautiful..(.his first two wives were beauties .but could not give him a son ).....I believe Farah had 4 children ..( two boys)
An amazing woman
We call her mother of nation. she is so loved in Iran. As an iranian i say; long live persian monarchy and god bless our king Reza shah II Pahlavi.
Very said on how their own country betrayed them for Islamic law. Now, the one's who were against them regret it. Look at Iran now. Shame on all who didn't help them. Including every country that didn't help them.
What a great woman. I hope Iran will be liberated from those old Moolahs and Queen Farah lives to see it. 🇨🇦
Iran abandoned this for Islamism of the worst variant.
Great lady and beautiful thank you for the information
Thank you for the eye-opening and interesting history of the former empress of Iran, Farrah Pahlavi. We were living in Paris, France, in the fall of 1979 when the Iranian revolution broke out. We would walk past a very large, high fence mansion as our three children did everyday to the American School of Paris bus pickup. There were always guards with rifles all around the high fence. After we left for the U.S., we found out that is where Koemini lived before the revolution which afterwards returned to Iran.
The last I heard was some members of the Shah's family were living in a small gated community in Naperville IL. This was 25 years ago.
1. In 1973 I travelled through Iran and in those days Tehran was a great place, a modern western capital and the people were generally free and happy, some time after that the religious monsters took over the country and gradually destroyed it.
2. In the early eighties I travelled to Los Angeles. I took the basic "Homes of the Hollywood stars" tour. The most impressive home I saw there was the home of the Empress, sadly it had just been looted by a pro Iranian mob. It was a serious palace surrounded by beautiful gardens, so obviously she wasn't too hard up at that stage.
What an incredible, yet very tragic life she has had. I admire her.
Nice mini documentary thanks
I’m 62 and live in Australia. But the love I’ve my life is a real Persian princess. My wife’s grandmother was an illegitimate daughter of the crown Prince of Iran. The Qasars of Isfahan Iran in the late 1800s. Everyone says Australian women are good but nothing matches the beauty, manners, knowledge of her surroundings and universe. They are wonderful people. She is 55 but their soft Ayrian skin makes her look 30. I don’t believe half the stuff Americans say about the Iranian people. They have more grace and etiquette than any type of western woman
“americans say?” What? That is the most ignorant thing I’ve ever heard. So all Americans say negative about the peoples of Iran?
Clearly YOU have never met many Americans. The American People have nothing but respect for the citizens of Iran.
In 1979 when the Shah overthrew the sitting government the Iranian citizens that HAD to flee their home country of Iran for their lives. And where did they go? AMERICA. Oh yes, in 1979 there were more Iranian refugees welcomed in America than ever before.
America has a HUGE Iranian people as citizens than any other western country.
Know your facts before you speak.
Shame about the Iranian govt! As a Persian Princess she would have needed to disappear . Sad.
The American People 'used to have' nothing but respect for the citizens of Iran. No longer...

@@staceytroffer8287 The Shah was placed on the Iranian throne by the USA.The objective being the O I L . when it looked like the Shah was not going to play ball and give his nations oil to the Americans,they turned to the Ayatollah,a truly evil man who was hiding in Paris. They set him up with a revolution,thinking that he would do America's bidding
.It didn't turn out like that as the subsequent events demonstrated,so the C I A turned it's gaze on Iraq,by trying to foment a war (Iran Iraq war 5,000,000 dead) to try and get rid of Khomeini .It didn't work. And despite years of financial blockading,the nation thrives. The C I A needs to be condemned because it's their sleazy activism which has lead to the hamas atrocities. The C I A still strirs the pot with propaganda now saying Iran and China are joining forces which may lead to WW3... Yes Americans have a negative view of Iran,because, if they didn't they would be freeing the nation of the islamic yoke andf not making up stories of nuclear weapons etc etc .
You clearly don’t know Ali Khamenei!! One of the most horrible men on earth along with his male counterparts that control a womans life!
