1979 Iranian Revolution, Explained | Last Persian Shah 

yes, never spare your core enemy

it wasnt about one person, the big cooperation have already decided, like oil company, its always a bigger power is involved

Actuality I heard a story of prominent general who lobbied Shah against executing Khomeini, but after Khomeini came to power that general was one of the first to be executed.

Sadly wasn’t meant to be.

​@@divinewind6313ouch! Evil on both sides

IKR?

Look at the helicopter the Shah is entering at 37:10

The timing is not crazy, Iran has been a relevant topic to cover since the war in Israël. This video was probably on the backlog to be released but scheduled it forward due to the death of the president.

This account has these videos saved and uploads them when something happens globally

​😊

Oops🤦🏼‍♂️

lol. the indian hindu telling Iran did worst and best . have u done finish your shower with cow dunk? haha

I agree you 🎉🎉🎉

If the Shah actually cared about the common people and wasn't a dictator to the extent he was, none of what proceeded would have happened. He only knew how to make the oligarchs happy. Remember it was the people who revolted, Ayatollah didn't come with a cloak and dagger to slit Shah's throat in the name of religion. He was happily praying and writing books in exile for many years.

The Iranians were literally starving under the Shah

😊

The west never lose an opportunity to degrade a true revolution that fulfilled the public demands in a peaceful manner and glorifying an Ethno theocratic rugged autocratic apartheid occupying colonial state of Israel whose foundations are on blood and eternal conflict.

You can blame Reza Shah for this

@@Hasanaljadid Why?????!!!!

​@@haydehshahram2519because of him Iranian people were starving that's why they elected this government

I agree

Ya it's weird, I don't know why Islam and the clerics still have so much power and influence in Iran. I think it has to do more with hating foreign influence and manipulation rather than actually wanting to live in a theocratic state. People are willing to be subjugated by the clerics instead of the US and their allies I guess.

@@MutedAggression I agree. The United States has brought a lot of good into the world, but it should have enough sense to stop meddling in the politics of other countries.

Did you not watch the doc?! Iran was never free and prosperous under him. the lower and lower middle class people suffered massively. There’s a reason why these Persians wanted him gone. But I agree that they should be free from the horrible Shia regime they are under.

@@footballedits212 The 1953 Iranian coup d'état, known in Iran as the 28 Mordad coup d'état (Persian: کودتای ۲۸ مرداد), was the U.S.- and British-instigated, Iranian army-led overthrow of the elected Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh in favor of strengthening the monarchical rule of the shah, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, on 19 August 1953, ...

Different religion but the same race still Persian to this day unlike Egypt Syria or even Iraq who lost their identity due to majority of arabs breed with them and became arabs

And if Shah was still in power, there would be rainbow flags on every mosque in Iran. Promoting bikini clad women was a bit much at the time. The starving religious poor didn't like that. If the Islamic Republic would ease their religious policing, and let women show they tresses, great things can happen for the entire region.

Few women in Tehran doesn’t represent whole Iran.80% of Iranians lived in villages that time

Most Iranians were illiterate back then.

You definitely don't know any Iranian women 😂 the old government was very corrupted back then and people starved ,while the the shah was living luxurious life ,away from the poor villages

Owww yea... this documentary hss sugarcoated the shah.​@@yasmeenmomani1743

King Reza pahlavi ❤❤❤❤❤

Good, hopefully change for the better happens.

😂😂😂

It's important to note that perceptions of political leaders can vary widely among different groups of people and over time. While many people viewed the Shah of Iran, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, as a bad ruler for the reasons mentioned earlier, there were also those who supported him for various reasons: 1. **Modernization Efforts**: The Shah initiated ambitious modernization programs that aimed to rapidly develop Iran's economy, infrastructure, and education system. 2. **Women's Rights**: The Shah's regime implemented progressive reforms that granted women more rights and opportunities, such as the right to vote and access to education and employment. 3. **Stability and Security**: Some Iranians appreciated the relative stability and security provided by the Shah's authoritarian rule, especially in contrast to the chaos and uncertainty that followed the Iranian Revolution. On the other hand, some people dislike the leaders who came after the Shah for several reasons: 1. **Islamic Rule**: The new government established after the revolution implemented strict Islamic laws and restrictions, which some viewed as oppressive and regressive. 2. **Political Repression**: The post-revolutionary leadership, particularly under Ayatollah Khomeini, was accused of cracking down on dissent and limiting democratic freedoms. 3. **Economic Hardships**: The new government struggled to address economic challenges, leading to inflation, unemployment, and other hardships for many Iranians. These factors have contributed to mixed opinions about both the Shah and the leaders who came after him, with different segments of the population holding divergent views based on their experiences and perspectives.

@@SmilingCricket-uz5ok Laugh at the Iranian protests ... 🙄 *sigh*

Iranians got rid of the puppet dictator

You don’t know about Tamerlane 🤦🏿‍♀️

Iran is worse than in 1979

Not the Mongols? Timur Lang? Qajars?

@@behzadahmad8818 these guys are beating the Qajars by a large margin... closing in on Mongols

@@hosspishyar No I dont think so, these guys have actually expanded iranian influence in the region the most.

It came out in 2019

Yeah... I watched this some years back.

All in the name of fighting back Communism, but this Documentary doesn't go into details. Sad to see this Documentary not be honest and show us the real deal.

augustus.

​@@nAw00bI'm Iranian. It doesn't go to detail but includes most important points.

Yes we need to learn how Iran threw off it's western puppet government to achieve true sovereignty.

This is why we cannot give into Islamic extremism in the west. Because this will eventually happen.

@@muazkhan538 Yea, they have so much freedom that women students flip off pictures of the Iranian leaders on classroom walls. 🙄

​@@muazkhan538 Stop lying, you're being brainwashed by your gouvernement into believing that it's a great one. And no, i'm not from the west.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

You mean like a mindless Christian? 😂 some of the em only read the Bible and just as brainwashed

I watched the revolution in 1979 and hoped the Iranian people would find freedom. It only took a few weeks to realize that they had swapped one dictator for another. I hope they/you find freedom.

Lol it was never called persia

Back to Zoroastrian

It’s still Persian

Thanks a lot showing how racist you are

​@@JitzyJTDon't comment if you Don't know anything about zoroastrianism

Islamic extremism will always rely on the gullible left, and then violently eradicate it when power is achieved. Look at the moronic Green Party in the UK selecting crazed anti-Semitic candidates.

True now they can deal with their students today

We're seeing it again at these elite universities in the U.S.

@@hosspishyar The Western students are no threat, and their cause is right. Israeli genocide has to be stopped.

@@hosspishyar There is nothing wrong with the western students, or the calls to stop Israeli genocide.

Trading down to a theocracy was the worst of all options. Too often in the 20th century, dynasties were overthrown and the common folk suffered the most, whether it be the Qing, Hohenzollerns, Habsburgs or Romanovs. Choose wisely.

🤣🤣🤣😂

@@fritzbasset8645don’t forget the tsars

🤣🤣🤣🤣 i find this funny

You probably live in a country where two man can get married.

Javid Shah!

The western puppet 😂 no more hit and run 😂

No more of the dictator. Iranians got rid of him

@@harlowida nah thank you revolutionaries from Palestinian camps and other Soviet strongholds were imported into Iran to do it

@@RoyalBlue292 Your propaganda’s way too old 😂

and blaming everyone else instead

Iranians got rid of the puppet dictator and the west put sanctions

It’s slowly happening to the US

The sequel 😂

The west never lose an opportunity to degrade a true revolution that fulfilled the public demands in a peaceful manner and glorifying an Ethno theocratic rugged autocratic apartheid occupying colonial state of Israel whose foundations are on blood and eternal conflict.

But the people didn’t love him.

​@@jeffscheiner1553That was the problem. The people were stupid and took the freedoms they had for granted.

you mean a U.S puppet, cause that was what he was. Once he outlived his useful the West abandoned him.

Have you learned nothing of this ? Did you totally miss the part about the visit in Germany and His secret service beating protesters? "The Largest Party in the World" and His people was not invited. He didn't really love His people as much as one should believe. This "Documentary" even skips over a lot of stuff

Not too fast! He loved showing off more than his people

The west never lose an opportunity to degrade a true revolution that fulfilled the public demands in a peaceful manner and glorifying an Ethno theocratic rugged autocratic apartheid occupying colonial state of Israel whose foundations are on blood and eternal conflict.

Timeline doesn't make videos or documentaries. They bulk buy old shows from tv stations who made them long ago, and are now selling rights to show them.

Poor people like you, that they think, are seeing a rell report of history, and what relay happed on (1979) #OccupiedIran . (revelation?!😄) Viva #KingRezaPahlavi 2583y👍

even better

You wouldn’t even be calling it “the gulf” if this whole thing hadn’t gone down

Have you read Arabian and Persian history?

But they refused to bow to American and Israeli hegemony!😒

It couldn’t. The puppet dictator wouldn’t let it

Talk about such open and blatant racism. Disgusting behaviour.

​@@muazkhan538 you seem to be confusing race with religion

​@@muazkhan538 Racism😂😂 victim theory as usual....

Complete racist bigot

Sure racist Karen

Similar to Gaddafi

​@@masudsaleh5155since you are not Iranian,get back to your business, ARAB WORLD!

​@@masudsaleh5155 In fact, Iran is now more similar to Libya that was ruled by Gaddafi - some newly arrived people are calling for a change of government, isn't familiar (with the help of America and the West)?! for what, to be "just" naked🤦🏻‍♂️

The Iranian people have the government they want. If you don't like that too bad.

@@zognaldblormpf5127no we don’t? Who wants to live under jihadi terrorists? Are you sick in the head?

And do not forget the western world supported Saddam against your fore father's who were gased during Iran Iraq war remember that.

It can

@@craigime like it’s working in Iran? Ones you use religious laws to govern a country, where does independence and freedom comes in? You clearly don’t know what you’re talking about.

@@gideonrobinson6613 is Iran an independent country?

​@@craigimeI mean they are no longer a puppet state to the west any longer

some west sucker talking bullshits👍🏼

The west never lose an opportunity to degrade a true revolution that fulfilled the public demands in a peaceful manner and glorifying an Ethno theocratic rugged autocratic apartheid occupying colonial state of Israel whose foundations are on blood and eternal conflict.

you just answered your own question he was handsome, smart, with a modest character who were worried about his country this is all the reason the powerful governments mostly western and soviet union needed to overthrow him by their conspiracies because he could elevate Iran to its deserving place like it has been through out the history.

De shah probeerde het land veel sneller te moderniseren dan mogelijk was. Ook had hij heel weinig contact met zijn volk, waardoor de shah niet inzag welke gevolgen zijn beslissingen hadden voor het dagelijks leven van de mensen in zijn land. De shah hield ook strak vast aan zijn macht en verbood alle politieke stromingen die het niet met hem eens waren, terwijl bij het moderniseren van een land eigenlijk ook een vrij gekozen democratische regering hoort en een vrije pers om die regering te controleren. Hij liet alleen de geestelijken vrij om te doen en laten wat ze wilden, dus kon de revolutie ook alleen maar uit islamistische hoek komen toen de gewone mensen uiteindelijk in opstand kwamen. Ik denk dat de shah iemand was met goede bedoelingen en hoge ambities, maar dat hij zichzelf blind en doof maakte voor de realiteit, door geen kritiek op hemzelf toe te staan en door geen rekening te houden met de bevolking.

Stem nie saam jou nie

I agree you🎉🎉🎉🎉

Fact. Other than the Queen *

Great point, as soon as I saw Milani I knew what would be the whole documentary about!! Those leftists and others were part of that disaster and now selling their own narrative to the world! What a shame!

Go back to rubika cyber-basiji madarjende ​@@DaniyalKhameneh313

Dont doubt...there is a huge chaos inside the country, the doesnt find a way out to the mainstream news.

Yeah the same Bell 212 model, which Ebrahim Raisi died in crash.

@@iamDhilip I also remember the American embassy hostage situation in 1979-81. At one point President Carter authorized a military operation intended to extract them but a helicopter collided with a plane in a sandstorm that killed 8 US servicemen. It’s interesting how the revolution that ousted the Shah came about. Many in Iran supported Khomeni because they thought the clergy could temporarily take over, that more political parties would be formed leading to a secular govt. Of course it hasn’t worked out that way.

@@r.williamcomm7693 yeah people of Iran thought they could throw him off from crown to get real democracy. But actually it ended up differently.

The lesson being an eternal one: Don't trust the clergy lol.

I was thinking the same thing. It's the same kind of chopper that killed the Butcher of Tehran and entorage a few days ago, perhaps the same one.

Most of the population doesn’t even remember life before 1979.

Why would they show anti-Iranian propaganda? How is that tragic that they protect their people from western lies?

@@zognaldblormpf5127 then why you watchin?

Lollllllll

From graveyard 😂

Brace Iranians got rid of the dictator

@@harlowida a dictator is better than a muslim overlord

@@maxmizer002Firstly as a Persian, the current regime is not a Muslim overlord. It’s a man using religion to mislead people. This happened because people the government is bad not the religion. Also, why must I have to pick between two dictatorships? Both regimes were bad.

raise the pride flag in Tehran

maybe that's why he was ousted

@@JitzyJT the west did that because of their interests and corporate interests. They don’t care about democracy, nor they care about iranin people. They want iranian people to suffer.

He was a puppet dictator

Shah Pahlavi was a great leader compared to Ayatolla .

@@luisaavalon4730 thats not a great way to honor Shah. A bag of potatoes is also a great leader compared to the ayatollah. Shah was a high class, educated and intelligent leader. You cant compare him with an illiterate maggot like ayatollah

Iranians got rid of that dictator

You mean the one who stole land from his own people? Thanks but no thanks

​@@harlowidathe woman of Iran free

LONG LIVE SHAH❤👑

Some footage is censored

Yes

You would rather try monarchic system vs chosen Anarchy with city states?

@@damoos3. Personally Yes. But also city states or small semi-autonomous republics or democratic communities have existed within larger monarchies before. So I don’t see why there can’t be a bit of both if people wanted to.

You mean we can only hope for dictatorship? Not at all

Probably not. Actually this is propaganda that fails to omit the meddling that the United States did in Persia. No offense to the United States, it has brought a lot of good into the world, but they should stop being the bully of the world.

​@@Tom-kk4tmBully? The US has to be the world's police because those other countries can't take care of their own people.

Sensationalism always Sells.

its not like it was hidden until now. it has been released before, and yes, now is a good time to post it again.

This doc has always been on RU-vid. They RE-released it probably due to what happened recently.

Javid shah❤

Yeah, I thought I saw it somewhere… I think the added some new content here

Us was not involved in everything, the didnt view iran as threat in middle east back then so they had no interest

They saw the USSR as a threat. It was clear the Shah was living on borrowed time. Controlling the power vacuum after the Shah was in US interest. Another Mossadegh would not have been desirable.

It's a reasonable thing to think given that the U.S. did meddle quite a bit in the region during the cold war. But I don't see how they would benefit from sabotaging the shah's regime, given that the shah was on their side, provided them with oil and was a very good customer to the U.S. defense industry. U.S. did prefer religious fundamentalist groups to communism, yes. But the shah was strongly anti-communist already.

you're trained by your bourgeois media, bark doggy

I feel the same about China. I don’t hate China, but the PRC government is disgusting.

Well the islamic republic is a religious ruling side, means the use religion laws , islamic religion laws dont give women anykind of freedom

Why do you hate islamic republic of Iran? Do you know anything about that? Or you are one of those who does not know his own history and his country's history, but yet allow himself to judge about others. Isn't it called ignorance and arrogant?

Iran is good, usa is not

Why would Iran want to be like the Saudis who are depending on US weapons for security Iran is not a puppet of any state.

It could have been greater

suadi arabia is an absolute monarchy.
