- Iran was a very different place before the revolution. Here are some ads that were on TV then, that show how western and modern Iran was becoming.

When Iran was a normal country
You mean liberal
@@abdullayaser700 Well, it wasn't liberal because Iran was a dictatorship during the Shah. He failed to foresee the influence of the Muslim clergies, from my point of view, He should have implemented some pure democratic reforms
How do you determine which country is normal?
I’m not Iranian but I certainly do not think Iran was normal, it was a dictatorship just like now
@@regularman5914 you are right
Wow Iran was truly a modern country, with a glorious past. Power to the people; and hopefully they can take control of their own destiny for once.
What about Islam? 😁
U called it modern🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes indeed iran was a very modern and progress country,with the help pf Great king of iran.

In fact it was all the sexy western ads that were the primary cause of the clerical objection to Western influence in Iran. The Shah was definitely a political exclamation point and foil for their hatred of western cultural decadence. If you could read and hear farsi you could hear Khomeini say in his own words that the decadence of the West is the good cause and reason for revolution. The 1st step being removal of the Shah. Naturally you would assume political freedom. But you are wrong.
I though so. Thanks for the explanation. Iran's ancient and modern history has always fascinated me.

Would you say that the majority of those who supported the overthrow of the Shah were looking for democracy, a more equal society and not a religious state?
Yup. Plus Khomeini, before ruling, was saying that clerics should not rule the country. Also, the islamic republic was officially proclaimed in 1979, but religious government did not start till 1982, when Bazargan resigned.
I live in iran
Things aren't so good for our people here

Well ,any commercials is high class with LED Zeppelin songs )))
The problem with the Iran was that the Iranians had absolutely no political knowledge or opinions. They have been getting better day by day for years. The youth got lost in the yellow press and for generations everyone has been looking for orientation and meaning. The ideal bazaar for pied piper. And with the help of all western and anti-communist secret services, the ignorant Iranians really grabbed the shit. with a special icing on the cake of the british royals, who harbored various complexes and dislikes towards the Iranian royal family, but were also damned angry in their own arrogance over the loss of Iranian oil 20 years earlier.
Bittersweet, lots of rapid industrialization combined with restricted political freedom. The argument was, don't allow them to bicker in politics, just focus on modernization. This backfired and eventually the shunned religious class, took over.
At the time of these ads, 30% of Iran was illiterate, but being educated by an aggressive educational policy the shah put in place. This policy was continued after the rev. Of course this government takes credit for it today
Wow chi boodim va chi shodeem!! (what we were and what we are now!!)
So beautiful but then so sad to see what the leaders of Iran have done to this country. Literally held generations back for 40+ years. Karma will get these leaders. Khameni being first one
Does anyone remember an airline ad with a jingle containing the words “we were Persia long ago, now we’re Tehran don’t you know”? I remember hearing this on the radio in Houston Texas in the 70s.
They had Led Zeppelin. Fuck yes. Iranian till I die!
Too bad Iranian’s can’t see these today

No my friend, it actually took 1400 years back.
@@mridulkanti1995 Ok Mr.Savarkar.
@@greeneast brother we are living in democracy we can comment anything but u cant that is peaceful islam ✌
At the time, the Shah was the most evil entity around. Which is why a weak old preacher saying all the right things and promising everyone everything they ever wanted, managed to convince everyone. And I do mean everyone. Anyone who says they were not for Khomeini at the time, is lying. In 79, no one associated a Mollah as "Radical Islamist". Mollahs were every day priests. The turban equal to a pastor's white collar. K was lying, no one saw it until too late. Egypt is 1979 Iran Deja Vu.
I know. And the clerics did not say they were going to make Iran a theocracy, but rather to bring democracy. And they fooled everyone. My awesome Iranian friend told me nowadays people still support a secular Iran, that people does believe in god but that they are "not very religious".
My parents didn't like him in the first place. I remember when Shah was leaving Iran my parents was so sad.
Of course this was for the privileged middle-upper class. There are no commercials for what the poor were living like. The current stereotype of Iran being willingly moslem is countered by these ads in 1970's era Iran. That's the historical fact. Of course poverty in Iran was high as you correctly suggest, but I will argue possibly no higher than the same shoeless child in Appalachia. Thanks for reminding us of the other backside. TV makes it seem like everyone is equally prosperous.
Even France the Effie tower was beautiful back then
Great
Workers of all lands unite.
I hear differing reports on imperial iran. Some glorify it as a great modernizing era, iran joining the free world, while others talk of the shah's oppression and serious poverty contrasting to a wealthy minority. Judging from these commercials, I can only assume some iranians were living well during that time. But how much of them? 50%? 30%?
Probably 25% I’m not saying Iran is better now but this all looks like it’s to the benefit of the rich.
Definitely higher than that, the thing is that it is true that there were A LOT of poor people, But everything was dirt fucking cheap. Everyone was allowed to buy everything. Not to mention the fact that if you had the simplest of jobs, you could become a house owner in less than 10 years. A lot of this anti shah propoganda is bullshit. Don't believe everything you hear unless you see proof bro.
Ok, I put it this way: back in 1960, 90% of Iranians were very poor. In span of 15 years between 1960-1975 Iran had highest average annual GDP growth in the world(around 13% annualy). That translated in huge improvement in Iranian people's life. My father migrated from their village to Tehran in early 70s. With his primary school education he quickly found a good job, bought a house and fed our family of 8 very well. We weren't rich but livelihood was very easy. With a basic job which one could find easily, he/she could afford to pay rent, feed well and have some entertainment.
Right now this simple and basic life has become a dream for Iranian young generation.
@@masoudj1185 But for most of Iranians, poverty kept constant. Also, the Shah used the oil money to finance a full surveillance state. So, Iranians saw Kuwaitis, Emiratis, Qataris and even Iraqis becoming richer and they being hold down by the Shah.
0:00-1:15 GET THE F*** OUT!!! They had Led Zeppelin!!!!???!!
@Bodah20st you're suggesting these ads are dictatorial propaganda instead of simple commercialism. I'm not sure I'd give the shahs iran that kind of credit. Mostly they wanted iran to become modern and a credible player in the world. Other than that, simple commercial greed was more the norm, rather than ay kind of thought out complicated conspiracy. Kind of exactly like what is happening in iran today.
Yeah it was just everyday life rather than the Pahlavis deliberately doing anything
40 years from now the people living the king's life in Iran today will post videos of the good old days. 😂
Ah iran where did ot go all wrong
This commercial is aired in the time where 80% of Iranian population lived below the poverty line. The revolution happen because of high poverty and unstable economy. Everything you see in the commercial are for rich people, majority of people wouldn't be able to own a tv. The Soviet then try to occupy Iran, and everything become more stable after the kudeta. But then the US come, and everything wrong that happen today is because of the US. You want to know how did everything goes wrong? look at the US and blame them.
tnt ntn "Everything" is not the fault of the U.S. These commercials show that the Shah was trying to rush Iran into Western industrialization without any of the civil and democratic reforms that go with it. The revolution was caused by 2 major issues. Rapid industrialization which educated a lot of people too fast, and then those people wanting Democracy and more freedom that comes with education. Which the Shah was unwilling to give them. Or as his defenders say, he wanted to give them slowly. The revolution was a direct reaction to this, fed and later led by Khomeini. Who started to hijack it by promising everyone all the freedoms they were asking the Shah for. It was only after he took over that he realized he didn't actually have to give anyone shit. Which is precisely what he gave them. Khomeini did not start the revolution, but he finished it. Above all Iranains did not trade int the Shah for religion. That would be stupid. Iranians are many things, but they are not stupid. And they are certainly not religious by nature. Only by force and the current law imposed on them. Persia invented Wine AND beer! Thanks to the "commercials" by this government, the world thinks Iranians are fanatics. Iranians love to love, eat, drink, smoke, party, look and act cool, just like anyone. These old commercials prove that.
@@bozkuhi iraq invented beer...Iran was the first other country to adopt it
It's called extremes islam
Hello from Mexico City, please how is called the instrument that sounds during the tv add from Nescafe is so nice please and the name of the melody that also sounds in this add.
It is a keyboard from the 70's, so you can probably find the similar setting on any standard keyboard, or maybe a cross between a musette and accordion.

The Shah was a dictator, but not a religious fanatic.
The Shah was a great leader for us Iranians. Please do not parrot what you hear online. My family lived under his rule as poor villagers and had nothing but fond and amazing memories of his rule
@@TabbyAngel2 I understand you... he was not nearly as obscurantist as the Ayatollahs. Women could dress how they liked and alcohol wasn't forbidden...but he was a dictator, this nobody can
deny.
@@TabbyAngel2 the only bad thing is that he enpoverished most of iran while he lived perfectly.
@@nicelol5241You are wrong. We had historical poverty, if you look at Iran before 1920's, it looks scary! Shah was a dictator but he did his best for the country while he did not have oil revenues before 1970 ..they were getting loans from IMF....only after 1973 they had lots of oil money!
I wrote it myself in my first post... he was a dictator and had to be overthrown... but he shouldn't have been replaced by someone worse than him.
That would be an awesome play to party. You can take a gun to a bowling alley.
What American Fast Food chains were in Iran at the time before the revolution?
None. Iranians are really good at copying food ideas and then improving on the formula. For example we had burger shops, but the burgers were incredible compared to the US. One place made their own ketchup from scratch. Pizza was better in Tehran too. My favorite place did a mushroom shrimp pizza that to this day I have never seen anywhere. Also the best Mexican food I've ever had was in Tehran.
@Knowledge is for acting upon… What do you think of the Afghan government's resolve to defend their own country from barely 10,000 barefoot crazies, with 180,000 US trained, armed, equipped, dressed soldiers? In my opinion after 20 years and $2 Trillion, I think the US has held Afghanistan's hand long enough. It's time for the people of Afghanistan to decide what they want to be. Slaves to a quaint book of 7th century romantic poetry, or Free in the 21st century world.
@Knowledge is for acting upon… None.
@Knowledge is for acting upon… Not ethnically... There are very few Persians left in Iran.
I know for a fact that McDonalds and KFC had restaurants in Iran before 1979. Possibly I think there might have been Pizza Hut too.

So sad
For everyone watching this, thinking 'wow, look how amazing Iran was before the revolution' you need to remember that the majority of Iranians lived in repressive poverty. Whilst the Shah enacted reforms, and made large improvements, especially in education, most Iranians were still poor, whilst a minority, corrupt beyond belief, lived extravagantly in Tehran (ref Hunger Games). The revolution was overdue, and righteous, the Theocrats who eventually took power, were not however.
The biggest bullshit that has ever been eaten and is still chewed by the left world to this day. from democrats in the USA to the European labor parties and even royal houses to Russia China and the labors in Israel. For 60 years your worldviews and general knowledge have been chewed up piece by piece and presented to you and you all believe you have your own knowledge-based opinion. Your victim.
@@wrathofiran4989 lol k hun.
Yes, it’s true, but Iran was such more better than now, Iran’s needed a good president or Shah that reform every law, not a Khomeini
Give it up, the Ayatollah didn't even have anything to do with the initial spark of revolution
All these people are now dead and under the ground

Quote: "This westerniation trend bothered the religious clerics who felt Iran was drifting away"
Oh yea... that had everything to do with it... it wasn't at all about the Shah being a brutal dictator...
Shah was not a dictator. You are an ignorant fool
@@TabbyAngel2 he kind was
@@TabbyAngel2 he killed everyone who doesn’t shared his opinions. He also made bunga bunga Partys for hundreds of Million $ while Iran was a poor country!
He felt the need to be a "brutal dictator", and sensibly so, in order reform and modernize the backwater country that Iran was at the time. He definitely wasn't perfect, because if he was the revolution wouldn't happen. He obviously made mistakes. But it's not as easy as you lot seem to think. Politics isn't that simple. Don't criticize people for what you don't even remotely understand.
zendebad shapour bakhtiar.
Without Shah, Iran would be a lot more behind from the rest of the world
50 percent of the population was under the poverty line in those days. Iran wasn't a good place but it only improved in the 21st century. Today there are alot worse countries than Iran.

Uh, I was there? The "initial spark" of the revolution came when his cassette tapes started to make the rounds. I got my first one in 1978 and thought they were awesome. Again, I know it's hard for you to process post history facts. It's OK, you're not stupid, you're just ignorant. In that, you don't have the real facts. I'm old. I do. Trust me, Khomeini ran the entire show from start to finish. There were glom ons, the likely info you have, but the real source was Special K.
