00:00:00.000 Credits

00:00:30.000 Thank you.

00:01:00.000 Thank you.

00:01:30.000 Thank you.

00:02:00.000 Let's go.

00:02:30.000 We'll be right back.

00:03:00.000 Thank you.

00:03:30.000 Thank you.

00:04:00.000 Thank you.

00:04:30.000 Good evening everyone and welcome to another live stream where myself along with a number

00:04:55.720 of Iranians in the chat. We watch a documentary about the 1979 Islamic revolution that turned

00:05:04.680 Iran into a seventh century Islamic hellhole. We give our thoughts and criticisms and then at the 1.00

00:05:12.120 end we will provide a rating and the reason that we are doing this is because many of you have

00:05:18.920 taken an interest in Iran and you know what's happening right now and of course you want to know

00:05:24.200 you know how it got to where it is today and i'm really grateful for that and a lot of you have

00:05:29.560 asked me um to recommend documentaries um i personally don't watch documentaries in english

00:05:40.040 most iranians we don't watch documentaries in english because the documentaries are filled

00:05:45.400 with a lot of propaganda false information and they usually promote the islamist jihadi narrative

00:05:54.200 And so this is this is the third one that I'm doing. But if you were here during the first live stream on Monday night, or if you watch it afterwards, you would see that for a 55 minute documentary, it took us about four hours to get through, because that's how much propaganda disinformation there was.

00:06:15.960 so um we ended up giving that one a rating of three out of ten um the one from last night was

00:06:23.320 pure utter ai nonsense that one was a zero out of ten um so we have one tonight uh before i before

00:06:30.760 i continue i just want to say something in farsi if you don't mind um in persian so

00:06:35.000 so

00:07:05.000 um so for our non-ironian friends i just basically said anyone who's watching on youtube

00:07:24.600 if they want to join or sorry anyone who's watching on x if they want to join the conversation

00:07:55.480 we live stream so um if you are a member make sure you go to the membership tab because i put a post

00:08:16.760 tonight if i can depends on how long this one takes so this is a documentary oh i also want

00:08:22.600 to give a huge welcome to everyone who's joining me from tick tock as well i just finished a tick

00:08:29.880 tock live stream where i encouraged uh my 350 000 followers on tick tock to come join me on youtube

00:08:37.000 as well because they were not aware that i do these sorts of live streams so there we go okay

00:08:44.040 So tonight's documentary about the 1979 Islamic revolution is from Al Jazeera.

00:08:51.280 And, you know, I've spoken about Al Jazeera before.

00:08:56.600 Al Jazeera is basically just a jihadi propaganda mouthpiece for Islamic terrorism and radicalism. 0.65

00:09:05.440 So I'm already going into this with a rating of one.

00:09:10.720 like that's my baseline for um al jazeera it's it's it's like a one and let's see what happens

00:09:18.400 i might be pleasantly surprised i might not be i have no idea but given what we know about al jazeera

00:09:24.880 and also given the fact that al jazeera is a mouthpiece for the current islamic regime occupying

00:09:32.000 iran um i don't expect much from al jazeera but i figured you know might as well pull a band-aid off

00:09:40.000 and just get it over with um and then we can go to to some other documentaries afterwards so

00:09:48.000 without further ado let us begin this documentary about the 1979 islamic revolution

00:10:10.000 so

00:10:29.040 so okay already already i don't like the wording here so so they say we interview all of the chief

00:10:37.600 protagonists of the iranian revolution so first of all it wasn't an iranian revolution it was an

00:10:44.720 islamic revolution right like like we already established this um there was nothing iranian

00:10:50.800 about the 1979 islamic coup d'etat the whole reason that it happened is because khomeini the 0.93

00:10:57.840 evil evil you know demonic uh dictator he wanted to turn the country um into a seventh century 0.86

00:11:06.080 islamic hellhole governed by sharia law and he did not like the fact that the shah of iran at 0.56

00:11:12.800 the time was modernized in iran he did not like the fact that the shah of iran was um giving

00:11:19.600 women the right to vote um i i you know what i should have like um i should have saved this but

00:11:27.040 let me go back to um x and let me pull up that video again because that video of khomeini is

00:11:35.040 so critical guys like that that is um all you need to know about the intentions behind the 1979

00:11:44.640 islamic revolution right i need to bookmark this in the bookmark this okay so this is what this is 0.60

00:11:52.240 what that evil khomeini man said when he came to iran after taking over the after being successful 0.66

00:12:04.080 okay so where is let me put this on here and then there's there's something else and so this is a 1.00

00:12:10.880 very good example guys actually this is probably going to be a very good opportunity for me to show

00:12:17.280 you guys exactly how al jazeera uses the narrative to um portray the bad guys as the good guys right

00:12:26.960 i mean al jazeera has successfully convinced um young people in western countries that

00:12:34.160 hamas are um you know resistance and freedom fighters and not the savage islamic terrorists 0.61

00:12:40.960 that they are and they do it very very sneakily and already in um in the captions here i can see 0.98

00:12:48.400 that but i will get to this in a moment but let me let me play uh this video for you from this 0.98

00:12:53.920 evil demonic man okay listen to what he said right so this is the founder of the islamic you know

00:13:02.160 islamic regime and so this is what he says guys this is what he says when he comes to iran okay 0.85

00:13:23.920 The meaning of humanity is that we want the people, we want the humanity, and we don't want Islam. 0.69

00:13:29.760 He said that first I am Iranian, I am a country, two I am Iranian,

00:13:39.200 I am not Islam, you are not Islam. 0.97

00:13:45.840 He sounds like such a Dohati, like he's such a he's like literally an uneducated inbred savage, right? 1.00

00:13:51.680 yes man you're absolutely right i 100 agree with you i would repeat that but my mom is actually 1.00

00:13:57.360 watching the live stream right now so hi moment um so i'm not going to repeat that but i 100

00:14:02.400 agree with you so so this is what i mean when you have documentaries that call it the 1979

00:14:10.000 iranian revolution right there they are missing the actual context right there was nothing iranian

00:14:17.600 about what happened and even this evil demonic man he said that patriotism is the enemy of islam 0.86

00:14:26.320 we don't want patriots we don't want iranians we want muslims right because patriotism is the 0.97

00:14:32.160 enemy of islam so right away calling it the islamic sorry calling it the iranian revolution 1.00

00:14:39.200 you already have it wrong and then and then from that point like you you're not getting

00:14:44.320 the proper context there but there is something much more sinister about this al jazeera um about

00:14:52.720 this al jazeera documentary that i've already noticed and this is you're 100 yeah it was the

00:14:59.120 islamic revolution um so um if you look at what al jazeera is writing here so look at this this is

00:15:11.280 the guys this is important so this is where like my legal training my political training

00:15:14.560 comes in because i'm able to spot out the kind of narrative that they use in order to um in order to

00:15:23.680 radicalize people subconsciously and i'll tell you exactly um how how they do that so if you

00:15:35.120 look at here it says we interview all of the chief protagonists of the Iranian revolution

00:15:43.940 so first of all they call it the Iranian revolution it's not it's the Islamic

00:15:48.860 revolution second of all they literally refer to the Ayatollah and the Islamic jihadi terrorists 0.95

00:15:58.620 who take over our country and turn it into an islamic hellhole they call them protagonists 0.90

00:16:05.620 right so already they are framing the islamic regime which is the most brutal islamic dictatorship 0.99

00:16:13.500 in the world okay or just not even as long it's the most brutal dictatorship in the world

00:16:18.900 already al jazeera is framing them as the good guys right so we already know that this this

00:16:27.560 documentary is pure propaganda. But again, this is the propaganda that we Iranians have had to

00:16:38.080 deal with for 47 years, right? You have jihadi outlets like Al Jazeera who are, the documentary

00:16:49.300 hasn't even started yet. And they're already saying that the Islamic dictatorship are the

00:16:54.580 good guys, right? They refer to them as the protagonists, not the antagonists, right? So

00:17:00.200 like right here, I was at a one. Right now, I'm at like a zero. I'm already at a zero, guys.

00:17:09.660 Because any documentary that calls the Islamic dictatorship the good guys is 100% nonsense and

00:17:19.860 garbage but i hope that this gives you a little bit of insight into how al jazeera has infiltrated 0.98

00:17:27.140 the western narrative with their own jihadi propaganda which favors islamic terrorism right 0.98

00:17:35.060 they want people who know nothing about um who know nothing about the middle east who know

00:17:42.740 nothing about iran who know nothing about islamic terrorism they want non-iranians to think that

00:17:50.340 the people currently in charge are the good guys they're not the good guys they're the bad guys 0.87

00:17:54.660 like khomeini guys he's worse than hitler like he's literally modern day hitler right now um

00:18:01.300 so that right there like red flags um i'm already at a zero um oh unusual ai thank you for becoming 0.68

00:18:09.780 a member unusual i appreciate that so unusual make sure that after this live stream you check

00:18:15.620 out the membership message board and make sure you put your suggestions there and now you actually

00:18:22.260 have access to um our our lion and sun flag emojis so there you go thank you for the support

00:18:28.820 i really appreciate that there you go oh i see them i see them right away all right okay guys

00:18:33.860 let's continue so right away like my rating for this is a zero and it's like do not recommend

00:18:40.340 but we are going to proceed with caution so given that they've already started to try and 0.97

00:18:45.540 indoctrinate non-iranians into thinking that um how many are you know are the good guys

00:18:52.100 this might take a while someone's asking me irani has tibala irani has man is that when

00:18:57.620 this is so bad we quite actually live stream very english all right um so let's continue

00:19:09.140 iran in turmoil

00:19:12.740 after decades of royal rule millions of iranians took to the streets

00:19:17.940 a popular movement against a regime that was seen as brutal corrupt and illegitimate

00:19:23.540 wait who's this guy

00:19:27.620 who's this guy as a student at the time of the revolution there was do we know who that was

00:19:36.560 okay i might have to continue a little bit and see who that was

00:19:39.160 a feeling that we were being humiliated by the shah and his regime domestically the shah's regime

00:19:49.380 was a dictatorship okay so already already that's a lie so so that guy just admitted that he was one

00:19:56.420 of the university students who was either a communist or an islamist and he's complaining

00:20:02.160 about the shah's dictatorship right so this is this is the propaganda they use they just they

00:20:06.760 make all of these bold statements but they actually have nothing to back it up meanwhile

00:20:12.180 Meanwhile, these are the university students that actually turned Iran into a dictatorship.

00:20:18.780 Iran was not a dictatorship prior to that.

00:20:22.000 The Shah was modernizing Iran.

00:20:24.240 But, I mean, again, this is just, this is why I don't watch these things in English. 0.63

00:20:28.840 But, all right, let's just continue.

00:20:30.560 Let's plow through this.

00:20:32.460 There was no freedom.

00:20:36.860 Okay, so the fact that they also say there's no freedom, that's another huge lie.

00:20:41.460 um the shah literally gave women the right to vote in 1963 before women in switzerland and 0.52

00:20:48.540 sweden and portugal so how can how do these like islamists and communists claim there was no

00:20:54.260 freedom when women in iran had the right to vote before you know women in several other countries 0.70

00:21:00.400 but but this is the propaganda that the bad guys have been pushing out there right every accusation

00:21:08.820 against the shah is actually an admission of their own behavior

00:21:16.580 revolutionary forces under the leadership of grand ayatollah khomeini forced the shah of iran

00:21:21.940 into exile his government overthrown and replaced by a new islamic order

00:21:30.980 it was the people all over iran who chose khomeini who wanted him

00:21:35.380 so that's that's not true it wasn't the people all over iran it was a very small small minority i

00:21:43.180 would say somewhere between six percent to ten percent okay six percent to ten percent of the

00:21:48.560 population not even that much because um it was shown in in previous live streams that there was

00:21:56.020 actually a lot of foreign agents right so for example um a lot of like lebanese people who

00:22:02.360 ended up then eventually becoming Hezbollah were there.

00:22:05.420 The KGB, like the Russians sent about 40,000 KGB assets,

00:22:11.860 KGB agents to Iran. 0.58

00:22:15.120 And then you also had Yasser Arafat and the Palestinians.

00:22:17.860 They were also there as well.

00:22:19.240 So the vast majority of the violence

00:22:22.340 was not even done by Iranians. 0.99

00:22:24.820 It was done by these foreign agents

00:22:29.040 that were funded by the Soviets. 0.82

00:22:31.720 Because even Khomeini himself and then the commies, they were all funded by the Soviets, right?

00:22:37.680 But now they're making it seem as if there were millions and millions of people.

00:22:41.100 No, in fact, the vast majority of Iranians, they were the silent majority. 0.90

00:22:48.480 And their biggest mistake is that they did not speak out, right?

00:22:52.860 And the reason they didn't speak out is because they thought that, you know, Iran's never going to be an Islamic dictatorship.

00:23:00.400 These people aren't serious.

00:23:01.340 so so the silent majority did not actually take these activists seriously and then by the time

00:23:07.980 these activists who were funded by the soviets who were supported by astra arafat and the and

00:23:13.820 the you know palestinians um palisites a fake country anyway doesn't exist but you know like

00:23:19.660 like supported by all of these um like jihadi foreign agents it was too late and then and then 0.93

00:23:28.540 again cinema wrecks right so so this narrative is not exactly true it's it's not um it's not

00:23:33.820 accurate it's not like 100 you know millions of iranians were out there was a very very

00:23:37.740 small subset and you know omid you're absolutely right i'm gonna um i'm gonna share your comments

00:23:44.060 uh omid so iranians took too long to start reacting and it was too late 100 that's exactly

00:23:49.420 what happened by the time things got too serious it was already too late and the islamists had 0.62

00:23:55.740 gotten had gotten control so this narrative completely false leader such a revolution by 0.76

00:24:02.460 the people oh my gosh it's fanny stagger again jesus christ okay so yeah like this is a this

00:24:06.940 is a zero so this guy is this is one of the people who actually helped to overthrow the shah

00:24:12.700 and bring in the islamic republic so this guy is like a traitor to iran um and it is it is wild to

00:24:20.300 me that al jazeera is is framing this guy as a protagonist right so they said he is one of the

00:24:27.500 good guys and he's not like he is hated he's hated in um by iranians has never occurred before in

00:24:36.700 history the islamic revolution would take iran along a new path one that brought it to war

00:24:46.620 i mean at least at least in that sentence they called it the islamic revolution which is what

00:24:51.180 it actually was um so there you go with its neighbor

00:24:57.100 and led to ongoing conflict with the west while remolding a staunchly defiant and independence

00:25:04.140 nation oh my god guys that was just the introduction geez all right this is in the

00:25:21.980 heart of one of the most populated and congested cities in the world these pristine grounds i'm

00:25:29.160 walking through these fountains and palace take up more than 160 000 square meters of downtown

00:25:36.500 tehran inside the walls of these buildings evidence of an opulent lifestyle

00:25:44.660 this palace has been converted into a museum reminding the new generation 1.00

00:25:52.180 why their parents had fought the revolution such a stupid reason such a stupid reason 1.00

00:25:59.160 Right. I mean, look at Buckingham Palace. Look at all of these palaces and castles in in Europe. OK. No one's no one's revolting. No one's turning their countries into Islamic hell holes governed by Sharia law. 1.00

00:26:16.560 So for them to just like use a palace as an excuse, right? 0.98

00:26:21.160 Like this is how Islamists operate. 0.97

00:26:24.160 They will try to use anything they can to justify overthrowing the Shah, right? 0.84

00:26:33.200 But the reason that they wanted to take over the country is because they were upset that the Shah was modernizing the nation. 0.50

00:26:39.260 They were upset that the Shah gave women the right to vote.

00:26:42.080 The Shah was actually a progressive.

00:26:44.200 The jihadis didn't like that.

00:26:45.840 So you're going to see that they're going to use every single excuse in the book to try and paint him as a terrible person when it's literally the farthest thing from the truth.

00:26:59.260 And, oh, no, he had a palace.

00:27:02.400 Of course.

00:27:03.880 It's not like he built the palace.

00:27:05.600 The palace was there.

00:27:08.040 Where are kings supposed to live? 0.99

00:27:11.140 And by the way, do you know how hypocritical they are? 0.97

00:27:14.180 they will use this palace as a museum and yet they themselves have stolen hundreds of billions 0.96

00:27:22.160 of dollars worth of um you know Iranian money and they have their own palaces and villas

00:27:29.720 not just in occupied Iran but they have mansions in Canada they have mansions in

00:27:35.480 the United States they have mansions in Europe right so the entire Islamic Republic 0.98

00:27:44.180 they are the ones who are corrupt because they are literally buying villas and mansions with 1.00

00:27:50.380 the stolen money of the Iranian people for their children they are all living like royalty okay 0.98

00:27:56.220 they didn't deserve it they didn't earn it they have done nothing to help Iran they have only 0.71

00:28:01.400 stolen money from the Iranian people they live their lives of luxury but then they think that 0.64

00:28:07.600 they can fool us Iranian people by saying look at this palace the Shah was corrupt no of course like 0.90

00:28:13.120 he should have had a palace.

00:28:14.500 He should have had several palaces, right?

00:28:16.440 It's one set of rules for them, right? 0.99

00:28:19.080 And one set of rules for the jihadis and the Islamists, 0.95

00:28:22.020 but another set of rules for everyone else. 0.99

00:28:24.580 That's how corrupt these jihadis are. 0.93

00:28:27.360 For years, this was the home of Iran's royal family. 0.92

00:28:32.840 It's more than a little ironic that what used to be

00:28:35.240 one of the most exclusive palaces of the Shah and his family

00:28:38.920 is now a park where you can come and stroll

00:28:41.520 with your family and friends, but it's the opulence of the place that really hits you

00:28:45.900 and its sheer scale. It feels like it's a private country residence, but in the heart

00:28:51.200 of a city. And it's little wonder that the Shah who lived here would have felt so isolated

00:28:56.040 and removed from the lives of ordinary Iranians beyond the walls of this palace. 0.88

00:29:02.200 So that's also utter nonsense. The Shah was not isolated and removed. He actually

00:29:07.640 was constantly visiting various parts of the country and being involved the shah literally

00:29:12.980 went to rural villages to help build schools so for him to say that the shah was isolated

00:29:19.780 it makes no sense what like that's a flat out lie guys and there's images and videos 0.84

00:29:24.800 that shows this um there's actually footage of the shah doing all of that

00:29:29.760 in the first documentary that i showed on monday night

00:29:33.120 Mohammed Reza Shah Pahlavi, the self-proclaimed King of Kings, ruled Iran from 1941, replacing

00:29:46.500 his father, who was deposed when Britain and the Soviet Union occupied Iran during the Second

00:29:51.800 World War. 0.97

00:29:55.100 The new Shah, it was believed, would be more malleable to their needs, allowing for more 1.00

00:30:02.760 control of such a strategically placed oil rich country but the shahs yeah you have the self 0.91

00:30:10.260 proclaimed again like they're they're trying to um like they're just trying to attack the shah 0.85

00:30:15.800 right the self-proclaimed king we all call him shah and shah are you america that's that's who 0.93

00:30:20.120 he was but like they're just you know this is how islamists operated and al jazeera is the worst 0.92

00:30:26.240 al jazeera is literally the worst like everything they put out there is propaganda that's meant to 0.93

00:30:32.680 support the islamic republic closeness to foreign powers always made iranians question his legitimacy

00:30:40.600 this was on the achilles heel of the monarchy was that the monarchy was really brought to power

00:30:48.600 by first the british and therefore behoven okay i don't know who's speaking but that's an utter

00:30:56.360 lie he's saying that the monarchy was brought to power by the by the british the monarchy

00:31:01.320 has been in iran since 2500 years ago the monarchy in iran started with cyrus the great so 0.74

00:31:07.880 again you're literally hearing the islamist propaganda right so all of those like brain 0.76

00:31:13.000 dead people in the chat right now who are saying the show is a puppet the show is a puppet right 0.96

00:31:18.040 it's based off of this right this so this is 100 um islamist propaganda meant to demonize the shah 1.00

00:31:25.960 and meant to spread misinformation and disinformation and then idiots who don't know 0.99

00:31:33.080 anything about iran will just believe this at face value and then they'll you know they'll 0.99

00:31:39.400 just repeat it right but this sort of narrative you would never ever um hear this sort of biased

00:31:48.360 narrative in a farsi language documentary like you would never hear this in a persian language

00:31:53.800 documentary because we know as iranians we know that this narrative is nonsense right this is one

00:32:00.840 of the reasons why we don't we iranians don't watch documentaries about the islamic revolution

00:32:06.120 in english because most of it is propaganda islamist marxist jihadi propaganda um yeah so

00:32:14.280 already like for me this this one is a zero out of zero out of ten i can't see this getting any

00:32:20.120 better um i i can't see anything saving this documentary but you know we'll plow through

00:32:27.160 because at the very least i can at least point out to you um the inconsistencies and also how

00:32:33.000 these people lie and this is this is why a lot of people um you know well-meaning well-intentioned

00:32:39.400 people are misinformed about what actually happened in 1979 and what led up to that in 1979

00:32:47.960 right like like they're basically admitting or like they're basically claiming they're making

00:32:53.480 the claim with no basis that the shah was the puppet of the west which is not at all the case

00:32:58.840 whatsoever to uh imperial power and the only way national wait who's this guy okay okay

00:33:08.840 let's find out who this guy is ervan abra ramion he stands like so he's the one who said the shawl

00:33:15.080 was a puppet so this guy is either today or he's an islamist let's find out which one he is

00:33:25.480 let's see which one this guy is 0.67

00:33:29.080 he, he was not brought back, okay, so who's this guy, what's it, Ervand,

00:33:44.200 Abraham, okay,

00:33:47.800 geez, so, okay, so this guy's, so this guy's a two-day, okay, so this guy's a communist,

00:33:54.420 okay so ervant ervant if you look him up right um how to start it

00:34:02.640 how to start it yeah so this this guy's literally a communist so he supports um the two-day party

00:34:14.120 the two-day party if you if you look at the um if you watch the first documentary um monday night

00:34:19.860 Like that was so far the best one. And now that one has a rating of three out of 10. So that one. They actually said correctly that the two day party was funded by the Soviets, right by Soviet Russia. So this guy is a communist. Okay. So listen to the language.

00:34:40.500 The reason that he says the Shah was installed by the West is because he is part of the group of people who were anti-imperialists.

00:34:52.040 And one of the main reasons the Islamic Revolution was successful is because of this unity between the army of the red and the black, right?

00:34:59.280 Red being the Marxist communists, like this guy, and the black being the Islamists. 0.87

00:35:03.740 So these guys have always wanted to destabilize and overthrow Shah, which is why he is now spreading this nonsense jihadi propaganda about the Shah being installed by the West, right? 0.64

00:35:18.440 Like he would never, ever dare say this in Farsi because it's a lie and he would be called out on it right away. 0.96

00:35:28.200 But he's gotten away with it in English because non-Iranians will just assume, oh, he's Iranian, so he must be saying the truth, right? 0.96

00:35:35.920 It's a complete lie. 0.94

00:35:37.320 So we already know this guy, communist, everything that comes out of his mouth is going to be a lie.

00:35:43.060 I could really reassert authority over Iran was to get rid of the Pahlavi monarchy.

00:35:50.380 MILES O' The seeds of discontent were planted early in the Shah's reign. 0.95

00:35:56.580 The most important natural resource, oil, was in British hands, the rights bought at

00:36:02.500 the turn of the 20th century for a mere fraction of their true worth.

00:36:09.220 iranians who worked in the oil fields in abadan lived in squalor while the british lived in

00:36:15.460 privilege i used to go to the city to go to buy something i i used to stop at the bus stop which

00:36:25.220 was run by the who's this guy paris me know like who who are these random people that like they 0.85

00:36:40.000 literally found like the worst people they literally found all the communists and islamists 0.90

00:36:44.360 to just like trash the shah right like all we're hearing from are the communists and by the way 0.95

00:36:50.220 communism is an evil dangerous ideology and communism was basically like the communist 0.67

00:37:00.300 party in uh iran at the time was funded by the soviets because they wanted to overthrow the shah

00:37:07.100 and turn iran into a proxy of the soviets at the time and in fact that's exactly what happened 0.64

00:37:13.580 because khomeini and the islamists ended up being trained by the soviets and that's why

00:37:18.620 as soon as the islamic revolution happened right but the islamists became an ally with the soviets

00:37:27.020 and then they started chanting death to america why do you think that is why do you think that 0.81

00:37:30.380 as soon as the islamic revolution happened they started chanting death to america and then they

00:37:36.140 became allies of russia guys it was it was a soviet funded destabilization project and now 0.96

00:37:43.740 they're bringing all these like communists to just spread lies and and trash the shah 0.57

00:37:51.180 so frustrating in the heat of the summer 50 degrees i used to stand in that bus bus stop 0.79

00:38:00.540 for nearly half an hour and number of buses would come but because they had the red tape

00:38:06.860 meant that only the British staff I could not use the bus I had to wait for

00:38:13.620 the buses which were allowed to take Iran there was a famous club in Abaddon

00:38:20.600 which the British staff use and there was so this guy's complaining so so there

00:38:26.860 were British people there who had their own separate transportation services and

00:38:31.520 all of a sudden he's upset that literally makes no sense to me he's talking about a british company

00:38:39.520 that had private buses for british citizens but he's upset that he couldn't access that

00:38:45.040 private company paid for like he's upset that he didn't have access to

00:38:51.440 buses that were paid for by a company for their employees so does that mean i should

00:38:57.440 be upset that a company transports their employees and i don't have access to that because i'm not 0.55

00:39:02.960 part of the company like this is utter nonsense this is this is utter nonsense 0.68

00:39:09.120 and gosh this is so frustrating sign outside that club which said dogs and iranians are not allowed 0.89

00:39:21.120 so what it's a private club if the british want to have a private club for themselves

00:39:26.400 what is that to you you go and make your own club wow so so this guy's literally complaining that

00:39:31.680 there was a british you know a british club in iran and he couldn't he couldn't attend so what

00:39:37.600 go to an iranian club go somewhere else

00:39:42.400 private private businesses can do whatever they want to do 1.00

00:39:47.440 do you see the kind of nonsense that these like communists and islamists pull like they 0.88

00:39:52.240 are literally trying to use every excuse in the book to try and demonize the shah oh no the british 0.90

00:39:59.360 had a private club that i couldn't attend therefore i'm justified in overthrowing the 0.96

00:40:03.760 shah and turning the country into a seventh century islamic hellhole 0.99

00:40:09.200 the fiercely nationalist democratically elected prime minister muhammad mosaddeg 0.99

00:40:15.360 okay guys there we go there you have it democratically elected prime minister right

00:40:22.240 Now we know where all of the propaganda about Mossadegh comes from.

00:40:28.280 Guys, you need to understand how the parliament of Iran worked at the time.

00:40:35.640 No one was democratically elected to become the prime minister.

00:40:40.240 Based on the constitution, the Shah would appoint someone to be the prime minister.

00:40:47.140 He was not democratically elected.

00:40:48.840 so al jazeera is literally pushing that jihadi propaganda that the islamists and the communists

00:41:02.200 are putting there right well sadiak was not democratically elected it doesn't work that way 0.98

00:41:07.060 okay gosh this is like the most frustrating thing this is why like all these non-iranians 0.99

00:41:13.160 always come into our chats and they're like what about what's that democratically elected right 1.00

00:41:18.360 Guys, he was not democratically elected.

00:41:26.300 Let me pull this up.

00:41:28.440 Jeez.

00:41:32.560 Okay.

00:41:36.940 Okay, I found a link.

00:41:39.880 So, guys.

00:41:46.960 Oh, my God.

00:41:48.360 Guys, guys, someone literally paid me.

00:41:52.140 Someone literally paid me $7 to say something. 1.00

00:41:59.560 You're so stupid. 1.00

00:42:09.120 Oh, my gosh. 1.00

00:42:09.820 That's hilarious.

00:42:10.800 Okay.

00:42:11.400 I'm not going to broadcast that message.

00:42:13.020 Sorry, buddy.

00:42:14.280 But, I mean, waste your money.

00:42:15.980 Go ahead and waste your money.

00:42:17.040 I love it.

00:42:17.560 Bring more.

00:42:18.360 Um, oh my gosh, that's so funny guys. That's so funny. Yeah. Okay. Anyways, here we go. So this

00:42:30.100 is what I wanted to show you guys. Okay. This is about Mossadip. This is, this is what you guys

00:42:35.200 need to understand about how the parliamentary system worked in Iran. Okay. Um, so let me remove

00:42:44.200 this video. Okay. So on April 28, 1951, the Shah confirmed Mossadegh as prime minister

00:42:58.340 of the Majlis. Okay. Wait, where was that? Here, here we go. No, this wasn't it. Where

00:43:11.940 is it? Okay, here we go. So this is what you guys need to understand about Mossadir. Here

00:43:20.480 you go. This is what I wanted. So while often called democratically elected, Mossadir's

00:43:27.800 rise to power was more complex and his actions in office were widely debated as autocratic.

00:43:34.680 Okay, so guys, Mossadir, first of all, was not democratically elected. Second of all,

00:43:41.060 He was a Russian KGB asset, and he was there to destabilize the country. 0.51

00:43:49.440 In fact, Mossadegh actually tried to suspend the constitution of Iran. 0.52

00:43:55.060 Listen to this.

00:43:56.400 Listen to this.

00:43:57.820 He was not chosen by popular vote, okay?

00:44:01.660 He was not chosen by popular vote.

00:44:03.680 He was appointed as prime minister by the Shah following a parliamentary vote in 1951, okay?

00:44:12.140 So, guys, it's not like the people voted for Mossad-Dir to be prime minister, okay?

00:44:19.800 So the way it happens is there are general elections, okay?

00:44:25.720 Everyone runs for office.

00:44:27.240 And then once people were elected, okay, once people were elected, then the Shah would pick from the elected parliamentarians who he wanted to be prime minister.

00:44:41.160 So this narrative of saying Moussadiq was democratically elected to be prime minister is 100% false, and it actually ignores the constitutional conventions of how the parliament worked at the time, okay?

00:44:58.640 And by the way, the reason that they they push this false narrative is because they want people to assume that Iran did not have any prime ministers before or after.

00:45:12.580 One of the reasons that the Shah appointed Mossadir as prime minister, guys, is because Mossadir and the Tudai party were trying to assassinate the Shah.

00:45:22.380 They actually assassinated the previous prime minister. 0.60

00:45:25.180 okay so most people assassinated the previous prime minister of iran and the shah was like you

00:45:32.820 know what there's a lot of tension happening let me try to appease you know let me try to negotiate

00:45:38.320 let me try to work with these people so he appointed most adip and then as soon as most adip

00:45:45.980 became prime minister listen to this as soon as he got into office okay so first of all

00:45:53.140 So the prime minister in Iran's constitutional monarchy was ultimately appointed by the Shah, okay? After that, this is where there's information that they never talk about. So once he was in office, Mossadegh ruled by a decree under emergency powers for an extended period.

00:46:13.020 So as soon as he becomes prime minister in 1951, Mossadegh, for no reason whatsoever, declares an emergency.

00:46:23.780 OK, he declares an emergency and then and then he held a referendum to dissolve parliament and centralize power, a move his opponents viewed as undemocratic and a push towards dictatorship.

00:46:40.700 Do you guys see that?

00:46:42.400 Do you see that?

00:46:43.000 So it was Musaddiq who was not democratically elected. 0.83

00:46:47.080 He was appointed by the Shah.

00:46:48.860 And as soon as he became prime minister, he decided that he was going to suspend the Constitution. 0.51

00:46:57.820 And then he was going to centralize power and basically take over.

00:47:03.160 Okay?

00:47:04.120 So Musaddiq is the one who was unelected.

00:47:08.440 Cyrus, 100%.

00:47:10.380 Guys, I'm putting this up there. 0.86

00:47:11.560 So Cyrus says, very similar to what Hitler did in 1933, 100%.

00:47:18.340 So what Mossaddiq tried to do in 1953, very similar to what Hitler did. 0.94

00:47:27.060 Now, Hitler was successful. 0.74

00:47:29.540 Mossaddiq was not. 0.85

00:47:30.660 And the reason Mossad Diq was not successful in suspending the constitution and becoming a dictator is because the Shah, right, the Shah of the country, stepped in and said, okay, buddy, you're gone, right? 0.55

00:47:50.240 This is one of the reasons why many of us Iranians, we want to go back to that sort of constitutional monarchy, because having a monarch, having a shah, is one of the ways to prevent jihadis and Islamists and communists like Mossadegh from trying to pull this off.

00:48:13.500 right this is one of those very important nuances that you do not hear about in english language

00:48:22.240 documentaries and the fact that this al jazeera documentary already started by saying most

00:48:30.260 was democratically elected this is why we we iranians deal with all of these like people who

00:48:38.500 say what about the cia coup you know they say the shah was installed no the shah was not installed

00:48:44.100 in 1953. go look at the history the shah uh the shah came into power in 1941. so if he was in power

00:48:52.740 in 1941 how does that square with what you're saying about what happened in 1953. what happened

00:49:00.180 in 1953 is most saddeck tried to suspend the constitution and turn iran into um a soviet proxy

00:49:09.060 right that's when the tudy party came in that's when uh you know and the tudy party was funded by 0.62

00:49:14.340 moscow and the shah put a stop to it and yet unfortunately the communists and the islamists 0.72

00:49:23.060 have ever since then been pushing this false narrative false propaganda that 0.89

00:49:31.060 was that dip was democratically elected and it's simply not the case right and i know all of this

00:49:38.260 the only reason i'm just pulling it up here is for you know anyone who's not familiar with this

00:49:43.860 like go go look it up yourself go look it up yourself i actually uh you know one thing that

00:49:48.900 i'm doing in my main live streams is i'm actually doing a whole live stream on this issue about

00:49:56.820 musad because it is it is probably the it is the single most misunderstood historical fact about

00:50:10.340 iran that people always cite right like every single time i bring up the iranian or sorry i

00:50:20.500 bring up the islamic revolution without if without fail without without fail there's at least 10 or

00:50:28.360 20 you know people who have no understanding of iran but they'll just put in the comments well 0.57

00:50:35.260 this wouldn't have happened if the shah wasn't installed in 19 you know democratically elected 1.00

00:50:39.300 Just like the stupid nonsense buzzwords, right? 1.00

00:50:43.580 Just the Russian propaganda buzzwords. 1.00

00:50:46.100 So I'm actually doing a detailed live stream about this very issue

00:50:52.980 because, again, Mossadegh was not democratically elected.

00:50:58.340 He was appointed as prime minister by the Shah

00:51:00.600 based on parliamentary convention.

00:51:03.040 And then when Mossadegh tried to dissolve parliament,

00:51:06.800 the guy literally tried to dissolve parliament and declare himself a dictator 0.91

00:51:11.260 the Shah put a stop to it as he rightfully should right because the guy wanted to turn Iran into 0.90

00:51:20.020 a Soviet asset and the Shah put a stop to it and the Islamists and communists never got over that 0.81

00:51:26.760 which is why you hear this constant propaganda and the other thing I want to mention is all 0.88

00:51:31.320 these people who talk about Mustadik, they never talk about Hoveida, right? All these people who

00:51:37.080 claim that they're experts on the history of Iran, how come they never talk about Hoveida?

00:51:42.520 And if you don't know who Hoveida is, then that should let you know that maybe you do not know

00:51:48.240 as much about the history of Iran as you think you do. So there you go. Okay, the major says,

00:51:56.200 the thing they all forget orwell's 1984 was written as a warning not a training 100 100

00:52:03.080 you're absolutely right major with that um totally agree all right so let's now go back to this 0.61

00:52:13.160 jihadi communist propaganda documentary we already know that they're gonna lie so so everything

00:52:18.520 they're about to say about most you know democratically elected whatever i've already

00:52:22.920 established it's nonsense but at least now now you can understand a little bit why you have all

00:52:30.520 these non-iranians who keep on talking about most that dip right it's because they don't know any 0.95

00:52:35.220 better it's because the communists and the islamists have been feeding this false propaganda 0.93

00:52:41.060 about most idea for the last 47 years and let me tell you something most idea is like what one of 0.87

00:52:47.120 most hated figures in iranian history like we don't like him if someone like if we were having

00:52:53.920 a conversation in in um in persian about the history of iranian politics if someone in um 0.64

00:53:02.080 you know if an iranian and persian ever said like oh was that dick was democratically elected in

00:53:07.440 the shah he would be laughed out of the room like people would just swear at him and be like are you 0.98

00:53:12.080 an idiot right so stuff like this is common knowledge for us but unfortunately for non-iranians 0.99

00:53:21.280 you get the the jihadi propaganda no respectable person in politics would ever dream to to stay this 0.99

00:53:32.320 this nonsense in persian because everyone else would put them in their place but unfortunately 0.99

00:53:39.840 they've managed to do it in english so and you know one of the reasons that i do these live

00:53:44.960 streams is to kind of call this out so i hope that you're at least appreciating this and and

00:53:49.520 learning something um what's the best resource to learn iranian history oh my gosh honestly

00:53:56.960 that is a tough one um because there's so much disinformation out there marcos

00:54:03.200 um i i would say right now the best resources is is me right like i've started this channel

00:54:09.800 and one of my goals with this channel is to review various documentaries about iran um provide my

00:54:18.960 criticism and also you know a lot of iranians join me in the youtube live stream they provide

00:54:23.940 their feedback as well definitely pay attention to to what the mods are saying um and my goal

00:54:30.840 with doing these live streams is to see if we can actually find something that is reliable because

00:54:36.600 um unfortunately the best resources are all in um in persian and they don't usually have

00:54:42.680 subtitles but maybe maybe at some point what i'll do is i will actually take some of those

00:54:48.040 and translate them um but another thing i'm working on is i'm working on compiling a list of books

00:54:55.080 um about the um islamic revolution and about iranian history and i'll probably make a video

00:55:01.400 or something um and share the books that i recommend for non-iranians to read

00:55:06.760 so that you can get like a better perspective um on all that but um yeah right now your best

00:55:12.840 resource is is the iranians in the chat uh you know just have that conversation and ask them

00:55:17.400 questions but thank you for being there here and thank you for for your interest all right let's

00:55:21.960 continue guys um made it his yeah like we're five minutes in okay my gosh you guys so this is not

00:55:29.800 frustrated for those of you who have not been on these live streams before where i talk about the

00:55:35.720 revolution guys we're literally six minutes into like a 35 minute documentary it's one hour

00:55:42.680 one hour and we're only six minutes in that's how much this information al jazeera is giving about

00:55:48.600 about the islamic revolution his mission to nationalize iran's oil threatened british

00:55:54.920 control of the industry 0.56

00:56:03.960 like like someone mentions mosat and we like throw up like like we hate mosat

00:56:11.320 and like we we never bring up his name in farsi because like like we just don't right it's like

00:56:17.240 It's like Musaddiq is like Khomeini, but for some reason, non-Iranians are like, Musaddiq, Musaddiq, and we just have to deal with that nonsense all the time. 0.89

00:56:25.220 The man was evil. 0.99

00:56:26.560 Socialist leanings were also seen as a menace by the U.S., who feared Iran might gravitate towards the Soviet bloc.

00:56:34.800 Okay, so it's not that Musaddiq had socialist leanings.

00:56:38.820 He was literally paid by the KGB.

00:56:41.820 He was funded and trained and paid by the KGB. 0.78

00:56:45.740 he was part of the two-day party the two-day party was funded by moscow he's he's 100% like 0.89

00:56:53.060 voldemort yo 100% he's oh nosferatu yeah we we always compare mosaddegh to nosferatu

00:56:58.780 british and americans agreed mosaddegh had to be removed

00:57:04.080 there are many people who show mosaddegh as a hero wait who's this guy okay so this guy's

00:57:12.520 even iranian okay i love how they always have non-iranian people talking about this um and

00:57:17.720 first of all it's not like the british and americans agreed he had to be removed but even if they did

00:57:23.400 good you know why i'm glad i'm glad that the british and the americans recognized the communist

00:57:30.600 threat that mustad was and got rid of him right because communism is a threat and and you know

00:57:38.680 something communism destabilizes countries everywhere they go so i'm glad i'm glad because

00:57:44.600 look at those countries that are ruled by communism right now look at north korea

00:57:48.440 look at vietnam right so so this documentary is making it seem as if the united states and and

00:57:55.800 the uk did a bad thing no the the united states and the uk were allies of iran at the time

00:58:03.160 and allies help each other out what's wrong with that and yet they are like pushing this

00:58:09.320 narrative as if like something nefarious happened right they they don't actually admit they don't

00:58:14.120 actually admit that um uh was actually connected major uh weather is closing in all my joints up

00:59:14.760 direct input and feedback and uh and yeah there you go all right let's continue and others who

00:59:22.120 were very dubious about him who thought he was more of a demagogue but the way in which of course

00:59:28.600 he was treated by the west and machinations against him reinforced let's put it this way

00:59:35.320 the iranian perception that their country was constantly uh interfered with by foreign powers 0.85

00:59:44.520 the cia engineered coup of 1953 put the shah firmly in power

00:59:49.800 okay again that's complete and utter nonsense there was no cia engineered coup okay in the

00:59:58.940 other documentary that we watched right the documentary from monday night from two days ago

01:00:04.600 that one has a rating of three out of ten in that documentary they actually shared the truth

01:00:11.920 so what they said is the cia gave the shah some money so the shah could take care of what he had

01:00:18.520 do in iran this right here 100 propaganda 100 lie okay so i'll just like this is why i make videos

01:00:30.680 about how dangerous al jazeera is right al jazeera is literally lying this is 100 a lot the cia had

01:00:39.960 nothing to do with what happened in 1953 it was the shah it was the shah himself as well

01:00:48.520 and for those of the comments who say the cia admitted to it look the cia can admit to whatever

01:00:54.120 they want can you show me a single other source that says the cia did it because the cia just

01:01:01.000 padding their own back to take credit for something doesn't actually mean anything the

01:01:05.240 cia was not even five years old at the time they did not have the resources to do this

01:01:10.200 the cia was just trying to make themselves seem relevant okay what happened in 1953 was the shah

01:01:17.240 and it was the strength and power of the shah in in being able to get rid of mustard and the

01:01:24.840 communist threat and that is definitely well more better explained in the other documentary 0.86

01:01:33.400 from monday night this documentary is pure trash and propaganda right now 0.93

01:01:39.720 musad lived out his days in his family home under house arrest

01:01:43.720 Sorry, so Pedram, I normally only show starred messages, but Pedram, this is really important,

01:01:52.260 right? So Pedram's saying all these stories about Mossadegh are one of the oldest lies.

01:01:56.940 They still use 100%, 100%. Again, like this narrative about Mossadegh, you would never

01:02:04.140 hear this narrative in a um in an iranian documentary because if if i was watching

01:02:12.700 something in in farsi and you know in persian and if they said this um we would just turn it off and

01:02:19.900 be like okay this is utter nonsense and then like we would just be done with it right because um 0.61

01:02:26.380 this narrative does not exist in farsi because it's not actual history this is the jihadi

01:02:33.980 islamist communist narrative that they have been pushing for like since the 1950s right

01:02:41.260 this is this is literally russian disinformation and propaganda and it is probably the the this is

01:02:49.660 the most successful example of russian soviet propaganda it started in the 1950s and it stuck 0.98

01:02:57.260 to this day and unfortunately there are a lot of useful idiots who still believe this version of 0.93

01:03:03.180 events which is 100 false iran's modern day political hero was silenced so was any talk 0.98

01:03:13.340 they just called him iran's modern day political hero mosat is one of the most hated people

01:03:20.140 in in polit in the political history of iran and yet al jazeera just referred to

01:03:25.260 him as a modern day hero he is one of the most hated figures in iranian history guys

01:03:33.180 This is utter nonsense. This is pure, like 100% jihadi, Islamist, communist nonsense. 0.96

01:03:42.380 Mostadir is one of the most hated figures in Iranian political history. He was never celebrated. 0.75

01:03:49.320 He was never a modern day hero. And it's wild that they are making these statements,

01:03:54.440 but they have no proof to back it up. You know why? Because this is how these Islamists operate.

01:04:00.960 they lie it's all lies it's all propaganda like right away right away guys um i don't even think 0.96

01:04:08.640 this deserves a zero i actually think this one deserves like a negative and the reason it 0.73

01:04:14.480 deserves a negative is because al jazeera is also a mouthpiece for the islamic republic

01:04:21.120 so what we are actually watching is the islamic republic's version of what happened so of course

01:04:28.240 you're going to get all of the islamic jihadi lies in here so i don't know i think this rating

01:04:34.080 deserves a negative like negative 100 i don't know a negative like this is just this is wild

01:04:41.360 like we're literally so for you non-iranians you are watching um islamic regime propaganda so when

01:04:48.640 we talk about how um how the islamic narrative like the islamist narrative has infiltrated the

01:04:56.320 west and um infiltrated your minds into thinking one thing this is what i'm talking about right

01:05:02.160 here this is 100 pure propaganda of the former leader i think was that was very popular you know

01:05:09.840 to the day he was uh overthrown and therefore once he was overthrown became virtually a non-person in

01:05:16.960 iran the reason he became a non-person when he was overthrown is because no one cared about him 0.69

01:05:24.320 and no one liked him so when the shah got rid of him people were happy when the shah got rid of 0.79

01:05:30.400 Mossadegh because Mossadegh was trying to suspend the constitution people were happy they were like 0.90

01:05:36.880 thank you shah thank you shah for protecting us from this evil demonic man who was trying 0.84

01:05:41.760 to hand over iran to the soviets at the time in 1960 so this is seven years after the overthrow 0.72

01:05:49.360 Mossadegh and you could still not mention it's also wild that they say overthrow there was no

01:05:55.440 overthrow guys there was no overthrow every single prime minister was appointed by the shah so the

01:06:02.960 prime minister before Mossadegh was appointed by the shah the prime minister after Mossadegh was

01:06:08.720 appointed by the shah and according to the part of the constitutional conventions the shah had

01:06:14.160 the authority to appoint and remove prime ministers at his will so when he found out that

01:06:20.080 mosaddik was trying to suspend the constitution of iran and turn iran into a dictatorship the shah 0.88

01:06:27.040 got rid of him as he should have but the wording that they're using right the wording that they're

01:06:32.080 using is making it seem as if um he was overthrown and a new government came in no

01:06:38.560 Mossadegh was overthrown he was tossed into the uh you know the the trash heap of history

01:06:43.680 and life moved on the parliament was still there the match list was still there how

01:06:48.640 could they never talk about the hundreds of other politicians who were still there

01:06:54.400 and they carried on governing the country like why are they pretending as if Mossadegh was the

01:07:00.240 only politician at the time there were hundreds of other politicians and Mossadegh was trying to

01:07:05.840 consolidate power so the other politicians complained went to the shah and said do something

01:07:11.120 this guy is out of control and so the shah got rid of him that's exactly what happened but the

01:07:16.960 see so the language they're using right like this is how they convince um like all these young people 0.80

01:07:23.600 that hamas are freedom fighters right like this is how they uh manipulate the narrative and the 0.94

01:07:29.520 language to make the the bad guys appear as if they're good guys this is not a good guy people 0.95

01:07:36.400 this is one of the bad guys in iranian history like he is hated we hate him there is nothing

01:07:42.560 about him that we like it must add by name in the newspapers or in the press so who is this 0.72

01:07:53.120 shawl is this man even like iranian like what is this guy

01:07:59.520 it's wild how they have like these all these like old random men who are like giving their opinions

01:08:07.880 but it's wild because the government the shah too wanted him forgotten

01:08:15.020 but for the shah's opponents musadik would never be forgotten

01:08:21.280 and as the shah forged closer ties with western governments anti-american sentiments increased

01:08:29.200 the shah's mistake was that he himself didn't make decisions

01:08:35.520 instead they were made by foreign counselors especially the american counselors 1.00

01:08:41.440 this is so stupid what are you even basing this on so again so this like 1.00

01:08:47.040 i don't know if he's a communist like he's either like this guy's a communist and now he's saying 1.00

01:08:52.180 the shah didn't make any decisions the americans made decisions based on what that is pure and

01:08:58.340 utter nonsense that is 100 a lie like how does this guy even know what happened he does not know

01:09:06.020 but these are the lies that the jihadis have been spreading to demonize the shah and to justify 0.81

01:09:12.900 turning iran into a 7th century islamic hellhole that it is today so you know this entire narrative

01:09:20.020 of the shah was the puppet it comes from traitors like this right so when you see people who say 0.88

01:09:26.260 the shah was a puppet that's because they're listening to literal islamic terrorists right 0.83

01:09:32.340 who are pushing that propaganda out there but they don't provide any facts they don't provide 0.85

01:09:38.100 any proof no reference right and non-iranians just buy it up because this is pure 100 utter 1.00

01:09:48.660 crap it's garbage like everything coming out of his mouth is garbage 0.99

01:09:52.580 like like so there's a word for people like this in farsi in persian so we call people like him 1.00

01:10:03.320 means traitor so every single person so far on this you know garbage documentary which

01:10:10.740 doesn't even deserve a hundred zero it deserves like a negative 100 every single person so far 0.96

01:10:17.200 this documentary is a vatan footage like these people are all traitors to iran and these people 0.95

01:10:22.560 have the blood of hundreds of thousands of Iranians on their hands and they still know 0.88

01:10:26.920 they still show no shame, right? Even though Iran is currently under a brutal occupation and 1.00

01:10:34.400 young Iranian people are being murdered every day in the name of Allah and Islam because of people

01:10:39.800 like this, they still demonize the Shah. This is why we hate the left, we hate communists, we hate 0.99

01:10:46.760 Islamists because they show no shame. They turned our country into a seventh century Islamic hell 1.00

01:10:52.000 whole, and then they have the audacity to lie in order to justify murdering Iranian people. 1.00

01:10:58.600 Khaktou said it. 0.89

01:11:00.600 Who had the fundamental role of planning things for the Shah.

01:11:06.560 To critics, it appeared that he was more concerned with cultivating an extravagant lifestyle

01:11:11.620 than with running the country.

01:11:13.960 He and his family were frequently pictured in the company of some of the world's most

01:11:18.120 influential people often hosting parties of spectacular opulence

01:11:25.240 okay how are you supposed to okay so guys i was in politics for 10 years i was an elected official

01:11:31.480 for seven okay so i was a politician for seven years do you know what i did as a politician

01:11:36.280 i would meet with other politicians i would meet with business leaders

01:11:39.960 i would go to galas i would go to you know events you know why because that's how you network

01:11:45.800 that's how you attract investment to you know whatever it is you want to do so this is so 1.00

01:11:52.840 idiotic this is so stupid of course the shah was meeting with people because how do you promote 1.00

01:12:00.040 um your country how do you encourage people to come and invest into your country if you don't 1.00

01:12:06.440 meet with them to speak with them this is such a stupid stupid thing okay they're making it 1.00

01:12:12.120 seem as if the shah was just oh out having parties he was literally holding state galas and banquets 1.00

01:12:17.880 why because that's how you attract investment that's how you um you know like engage in foreign

01:12:26.120 relations and and you know diplomacy right so they're literally containing about the fact

01:12:32.840 they're complaining about the fact that the shah was establishing um relations with diplomats

01:12:42.120 right yeah i was so frustrated my earpiece came out the guy's the shah of iran his part of his

01:12:54.220 job is to meet with foreign dignitaries and to host them and to encourage them to come to the

01:13:00.980 country and invest that that's literally what president trump does all the time he hosts people

01:13:07.800 at the white house and then he also goes and he visits leaders around the world does that mean

01:13:13.520 he's a dictator does that mean he's having a lot no it's it's literally part of the job do you see 0.85

01:13:18.600 how they're smearing the shah for literally doing his job like this is the jihadi communist islamist

01:13:26.680 nonsense that we iranians have been dealing with for 47 years oh no the man held a lavish party 0.96

01:13:32.380 good I'm glad he did because every single lavish party meant an investment into Iran

01:13:37.960 by doing so he showed the world that Iran is modernizing and he encouraged people to come and 0.94

01:13:45.420 visit I'm glad he did that but but this is the garbage narrative that that that the jihadis 0.98

01:13:53.820 pull right like so this is again the whole like false narrative of the Shah was corrupt and wasted 0.94

01:13:59.320 money no he was doing his job he's the shah of iran he's supposed to engage in diplomatic relations

01:14:06.280 literally his job

01:14:12.120 in 1963 the shah announced an ambitious modernization program

01:14:17.960 it seems to me around that period the kind of stranglehold that the events of 1953 the overthrow

01:14:25.960 mustadik had over the regime were like to status why are you lying they they still keep on using

01:14:32.920 this there the overthrow of mustadik right they say the overthrow of mustadik as if somehow that

01:14:39.640 was of any consequence no one cares people are happy that mustadik was overthrown by the way he

01:14:46.600 wasn't overthrown the shot kicked into the curb where he belonged because he was a a traitor that 0.63

01:14:52.520 was funded by the soviets right the shah got rid of him thankfully because most had wanted to 0.83

01:14:59.560 suspend the constitution but they keep on saying the overthrow okay what does that even mean yeah 0.93

01:15:06.360 he got rid of him and he appointed another prime minister that is literally the shah's purpose 0.79

01:15:11.400 that is his role when you have one prime minister who goes mad with power and he wants to suspend 0.97

01:15:18.360 the constitution the shah did the right thing by getting rid of him and appointing another another 0.88

01:15:23.720 prime minister and like that's what's really sneaky about this right this is why people think

01:15:29.000 the shah was authoritarian because they always say mustadik was overthrown but they never mentioned

01:15:35.720 that the shah then appointed another prime minister right guys like this is this is the 0.87

01:15:43.880 this is like this is how islamists operate right look at this 0.66

01:15:54.600 that's what i want to show you guys okay here you go here you go guys so to everyone who thinks 0.65

01:16:00.840 that you know mosad was overthrown and then iran became a dictatorship right like

01:16:08.280 it's all available on google guys right like look at this look at this i literally just um

01:16:13.880 I just put into Google, who was the prime minister after Mossadegh, okay?

01:16:18.920 Like, Google is your best friend, guys.

01:16:21.420 So, Fazlullah Zahidi became prime minister after Muhammad Mossadegh was overthrown in the 1950s.

01:16:29.220 They still call it the coup d'etat.

01:16:30.540 It's nonsense, but whatever.

01:16:32.400 The coup reinstated.

01:16:33.880 See, again, this is like nonsense, too. 1.00

01:16:37.460 Right here, this is like, again, Islamist nonsense, right? 1.00

01:16:43.540 Chelo, you're 100% right. 1.00

01:16:45.020 Musaddiq was part of the Qajar dynasty. 0.97

01:16:47.620 I'm actually going to speak about that.

01:16:49.960 I'm going to speak about that in my full live stream about Musaddiq.

01:16:54.480 But, I mean, for now, guys, like, okay, so even this, even this here is wrong.

01:17:02.180 But the one thing I want to point out to you is that Fazlullah Zaddiq became prime minister after Musaddiq was overthrown, okay?

01:17:12.900 So it's not like Iran was a dictatorship.

01:17:20.400 Basically, Mossadik was trying to suspend the constitution.

01:17:24.960 So the Shah was like, you're not a good person. 0.85

01:17:27.960 You are funded by the Soviets. 0.95

01:17:30.040 I'm going to get rid of you and I'm going to appoint another prime minister. 0.81

01:17:33.700 And that's exactly what he did.

01:17:36.140 But even here, even here, like this is still like this is contradictory.

01:17:40.400 Even what Google is saying is contradictory.

01:17:42.400 And the reason it's contradictory is because, unfortunately, in English, the communists and the Islamists have control of the narrative.

01:17:53.520 But you can't square this.

01:17:55.640 Like, how can you claim that Iran was a dictatorship under the Shah when you literally had another prime minister?

01:18:04.040 And again, all those like armchair experts who want to talk about Mostadir, if you ask them, OK, who was the prime minister who came after Mostadir, they won't know because they never bother to actually think about it or step back or to go and look at actual Iranian history. 0.75

01:18:22.240 They just rely on the English language sound bites that are put out there by the communists, by the Islamists, by these trash documentaries like Al Jazeera, right?

01:18:34.860 it's wild to me it's wild to me that these um these so-called uh you know um academics 0.95

01:18:44.300 can get away with spouting these lies and they've been doing it for 50 years unchecked 0.92

01:18:54.300 meanwhile if you actually act like guys all of you non-iranians like i encourage you if you ever

01:18:59.740 like, if you ever, you know, speak with an Iranian in person, just ask them, what are your thoughts

01:19:06.680 on Mossadegh? And their answer will be everything you need to know, right? I mean, even the Iranians

01:19:14.260 in the chat are saying Mossadegh was a horrible person, right? Because again, he's one of the most 1.00

01:19:21.760 hated figures in Iranian political history. And yet, in this documentary funded by Al Jazeera,

01:19:28.020 again al jazeera is a mouthpiece for the muslim brotherhood and the islamic republic occupying 0.70

01:19:33.460 iran al jazeera is pushing and promoting all of the lies in order to smear the shah and in order 0.87

01:19:41.260 to convince people that the shah was a bad person because they want you to think that the islamic

01:19:47.320 republic is good no what happened in 1979 is the worst thing that ever happened and it was based on

01:19:52.700 fake news and lies okay and the shop felt much freer than to experiment a little bit

01:19:59.820 on his own oh sorry oh sorry um i just see start comments here okay oh marcos um sorry i missed

01:20:09.820 this one so marco says is qatar al jazeera an ally of iran well okay not iran like i'm iranian but i

01:20:17.340 think by iran you mean the islamic republic occupying iran 100 qatar and al jazeera are

01:20:24.540 100 allies of the islamic republic occupying iran they act as a mouthpiece for the islamic republic

01:20:32.300 and this is a documentary produced by al jazeera so we're literally watching like islamic regime

01:20:37.900 propaganda um which is incredibly frustrating but yes they are allies um and they will always spout

01:20:44.700 like they will always say things that support the islamic republic um you have it's like al jazeera

01:20:51.980 in qatar are not actually bourgeois they have oh my gosh yeah so qatar definitely has slave scandals

01:20:59.820 um they don't really talk about it because it's it's illegal and they don't want anyone to know

01:21:04.220 right like al jazeera never talks about what happens in qatar because al jazeera is is the

01:21:10.060 the mouthpiece for qatar right so we only focused on things that happen elsewhere but no one ever

01:21:15.320 talks about what's happening in qatar 100 right the so-called white revolution included plans

01:21:22.020 for land redistribution as well as extensive social reforms and for the first oh okay look

01:21:28.700 at this look at this guy so so this documentary was saying that the shah was the dictator he was

01:21:34.240 corrupt um look at all these school children the shah was building 4 000 schools a year

01:21:41.760 across iran to educate people okay i mean let me go back a little bit here i want to see what they 0.99

01:21:48.640 say about the white revolution um oh jane why do you think he appointed was that dick was he 0.91

01:21:56.560 pressured from outside so it's 100 so the reason the shah appointed most is because there was 0.65

01:22:01.520 actually tension um from the communist two-day party at the time and there was actually um i

01:22:09.040 think it was the previous prime minister had been assassinated by people who supported most

01:22:15.520 so there was a lot of tension and so the shah was like okay well i want peace i don't want violence

01:22:21.600 so maybe i'll just appoint most addict in order to to calm the tension down but all of that tension

01:22:30.000 was actually funded by the soviets it was literally a russian destabilization project

01:22:35.040 and when the shah tried to appease them and work with them what mustadik did is he immediately tried

01:22:41.360 to suspend the constitution so then the shah said okay like i'm not gonna like i'm not gonna play

01:22:46.960 ball anymore i tried working with you guys i tried appeasing you i tried you know doing it peacefully

01:22:53.360 and you have proven and demonstrated that you are basically Soviet assets.

01:23:01.540 So he got rid of Mossadegh because Mossadegh was a traitor.

01:23:05.260 Mossadegh was loyal to Soviet Russia.

01:23:07.840 He was not loyal to Iran.

01:23:10.760 And the Shah got rid of him and appointed someone else.

01:23:14.500 And this documentary didn't actually reference the assassination attempt

01:23:18.900 against the Shah by Mossadegh and his supporters.

01:23:22.460 so this documentary is 100 trash but i will speak more about that i will have a whole episode

01:23:28.840 um on mosad the communist traitor but thank you for the question appreciate that first time 0.78

01:23:35.540 women would be allowed to vote the shah okay here we go here we go so i want to go back a little bit

01:23:42.720 because this is the part that always blows my mind these documentaries say that the shah was

01:23:47.940 authoritarian, he was a dictator, blah, blah, blah, nonsense. And then as soon as it comes to 1963 and

01:23:54.300 the white revolution, they literally, they literally talk about the fact that the Shah was

01:23:58.980 giving women the right to vote. So how the heck could the Shah be an authoritarian dictator when

01:24:07.120 he was giving women the right to vote and giving them the same rights as men? Do you see the

01:24:11.920 contradictions here do you see how hard they're trying to smear the shah but yet the facts 0.54

01:24:18.740 themselves don't square with the narrative they're trying to push okay let me go back let's pay this

01:24:24.880 let's watch this again okay the kind of strangle hold that the events of 1953 the overthrow of

01:24:34.680 Mossadegh had over the regime were broken and the shah felt much freer than to experiment a little

01:24:41.280 bit on his own the so-called white revolution included plans for land redistribution as well 0.78

01:24:50.080 as extensive social reforms and for the first time women would be allowed to vote the shah

01:24:57.600 a lifelong fan of western culture appeared to be imposing western ideals upon iran

01:25:03.280 Oh, no. Do you see that? So they even managed to make the fact that the Shah gave women the right to vote. They even managed to somehow criticize him for that. So apparently, giving women the right to vote is imposing Western ideals.

01:25:24.500 do you see how they operate do you see how these jihadis lie and they smear

01:25:32.680 apparently giving women the right to vote is imposing western ideals 1.00

01:25:39.800 it's utter trash utter trash and nonsense and guys we're only nine minutes in we're only nine 0.99

01:25:48.560 minutes in on this like 30 minute documentary and oh my gosh like this is wild ours is a policy of 0.98

01:25:56.440 participation embracing all men and women which sometimes go further than those of even for

01:26:03.740 instance the scandinavian countries okay so so does that sound like a dictator to you he just

01:26:09.600 said we're like we're we're we're implementing a policy where we can embrace the rights of all men

01:26:17.320 and women does that sound like a dictator does that sound like an authoritarian is that first 0.96

01:26:24.280 of all if if iran was an authoritarian regime under the shah how the hell did women get the 1.00

01:26:30.520 right to vote what would they be voting for if it was a dictatorship and people had no rights 0.96

01:26:36.120 again this is how the jihadis lie the islamists everything that comes out of their mouth is a lie 0.87

01:26:42.600 not just the islamists but also the communists right and omid you're 100 right javid shah 0.74

01:26:52.680 we are not too concerned about what this this is the shah by the way and we love him

01:26:57.080 like this is a pro-pahlavi pro-shah channel we all love the shah we love the pallet dynasty

01:27:03.400 others might think of the system the results speak for themselves

01:27:07.560 there is no doubt that that reform changed the face of iranian society took a feudal economy

01:27:15.080 and turned it into a capitalist modern economy these reforms were not well received by all

01:27:22.760 in iran they eroded the influence of landowners and the clergy and many clerics were outraged

01:27:30.440 so the reason the landowners and the clergy didn't like the fact that the shah was

01:27:34.760 modernizing iran is because there was a feudal system and a lot of these landowners and clergy

01:27:42.200 they actually had serfs right serfdom is modern day slavery so part of the land reform

01:27:49.720 was the shah getting rid of modern day slavery right and he was taking land and he was giving 0.60

01:27:57.240 it to the poor people that pissed off the islamic clergy and that pissed off some of the the tribal 0.90

01:28:03.880 lord the hans right because all of a sudden the hans did not have access to their slaves anymore 0.97

01:28:10.600 because the shah was like we're gonna ban slavery we're gonna ban serfdom iranian people deserve to 0.66

01:28:16.760 be free um the line on universal suffrage being yeah 100 100 right all right let's continue

01:28:33.880 that means land was oh my god is this wait is that is that a mullah 0.59

01:28:41.400 oh my god oh my gosh who is this oh my guys they actually have like an islamic

01:28:52.520 cleric here who's not going to talk about the shah so already you know

01:28:56.120 like this documentary is a hundred percent jihadi islamic nonsense like like this guy 0.98

01:29:02.840 is a this guy has the blood of hundreds of thousands of innocent iranians on his dirty 0.98

01:29:10.520 filthy hands so this doc i can't believe they brought like a mullah to speak about what i like 0.95

01:29:17.720 they've they're literally interviewing the bad guys okay for this documentary they're interviewing 0.78

01:29:23.720 the bad guys this is wild they sold the uncultivated lands to deprived farmers it wasn't given away

01:29:36.600 they had to pay in installments for 15 years the peasants were that's nonsense the shot gave the

01:29:44.040 land away for free that's what the other documentaries say the fact that this listen 0.86

01:29:48.600 guys everything that comes out of these mullah's mouths is a lie like they breathe they're lying 0.86

01:29:53.720 so everything here is is completely false the shah gave away the land in fact in the other 0.83

01:30:00.200 documentary that we watched the one on monday night the one that got a rating of three out of

01:30:05.720 ten that documentary correctly said that the shah gave away his own personal land the size of

01:30:15.240 luxembourg okay so he gave away land that he personally owned which was the size of luxembourg

01:30:22.680 for free to 30 000 poor iranian families so that they could become self-empowered that's what the 0.69

01:30:31.080 other documentary said now this jihadi pedophile mullah who has the blood of hundreds of thousands 0.75

01:30:39.240 of iranians on his hands is saying that the complete opposite right no facts no receipts 0.98

01:30:46.200 nothing to back it up just his taqiyya again these are the sorts of lies that these mullahs

01:30:54.200 used back in the 60s and 70s in order to justify overthrowing the shah it was a hundred percent 0.83

01:31:00.840 fake um fake news and smear campaign and and you're you would never see a mullah in an in a 0.80

01:31:09.080 farsi version documentary about the islamic republic because these are the bad guys right

01:31:14.760 like that would be like interviewing um like nazis right that would be that would be like

01:31:21.320 interviewing nazis about the holocaust and only nazis right like imagine you do a documentary

01:31:28.600 about the holocaust and you don't interview jewish people but you only interview nazis

01:31:34.280 that's what this is that's literally what this is it's all propaganda and fake news and it's just 1.00

01:31:40.200 utter trash left with nothing and abandoned their villages and lost their way of life 0.99

01:31:48.040 did not do anything to benefit the people 0.98

01:31:52.600 one scholar was particularly critical insisting that the white revolution was aimed at bolstering

01:31:58.920 foreign interests in iran and further eroding its sheer traditions

01:32:03.480 So do you see how these jihadis operate? Like, it's just lies. It's just lie after lie after

01:32:11.760 lie and they have nothing to back it up. The jihadis were upset that the Shah gave women 0.96

01:32:18.260 the right to vote. They were upset that the Shah was empowering women and they claimed

01:32:23.880 that that's Western interests, right?

01:32:26.480 Grand Ayatollah Ruhala Mousavi Khomeini said that the only white thing about this revolution

01:32:31.920 was the influence of the White House.

01:32:34.720 It's often said that in 1963 it was the white revolution,

01:32:40.320 land reform, women's rights that triggered off the Khomeini

01:32:45.720 movement.

01:32:48.320 Those are partly true, but I think more important was in 1963

01:32:54.820 the Shah gave extraterritorial rights

01:32:58.820 to american military officials and this so what that makes absolutely no sense

01:33:09.460 i haven't heard this narrative in any other documentaries um this is like pure nonsense

01:33:15.860 right now iran was an ally of the united states they worked together that that's how allies

01:33:24.020 operate the united states has a military base in qatar right now in qatar

01:33:31.460 does that mean qatar is a puppet of the united states like come on guys like 1.00

01:33:34.900 like think with your brain here right but that's how these islamists operate right

01:33:39.300 then fitted into this nationalist perception that the shah was not really a patriot the term

01:33:46.900 Khomeini used that had resonated, that this was a capitulation to Western imperialism.

01:33:55.780 Khomeini's criticism of the reforms and of the Shah was harsh and uncompromising,

01:34:01.620 as was the Shah's response.

01:34:04.500 Do you guys see how evil this man looks? I don't understand how anyone in the West at that time,

01:34:12.820 or even like iranians like and then they thought he would be better than the

01:34:22.580 shot right like look at his evil face he looks this guy could teach satan how to be evil 0.53

01:34:32.580 and all they did was lie khomeini was arrested and imprisoned

01:34:37.780 sparking off protests in the holy city of kum where khomeini was based

01:34:42.820 Okay. They forgot to mention the reason that Khomeini was arrested and imprisoned is because him and his followers attempted an assassination attempt against the Shah.

01:34:56.220 So they tried to assassinate the Shah and they were unsuccessful. So they were arrested. They were sent to court. They were found guilty and then they were jailed.

01:35:08.220 which is how these things work.

01:35:10.480 You try to murder someone, you usually go to jail, right?

01:35:15.440 But this documentary, like, they're making it seem as if the Shah just randomly threw him in jail. 0.80

01:35:19.780 No, that evil demonic cleric tried to murder the Shah,

01:35:23.880 and he was found guilty of the crime, so he went to jail. 0.50

01:35:27.940 That's how the justice system works, guys.

01:35:30.820 But this documentary failed to mention that.

01:35:33.500 These soon spread to cities across Iran,

01:35:35.840 a sure sign of Khomeini's growing popularity.

01:35:40.760 In response, the Shah security forces launched a crackdown, 0.98

01:35:45.300 igniting even more protests throughout the country.

01:35:49.280 It was in part spontaneous, you know, once Khomeini was arrested

01:35:54.420 and in part, of course, instigated by his own clerical followers,

01:35:59.240 people in the bazaar.

01:36:00.320 so okay at least he admitted that the protests were instigated by the jihadis themselves right

01:36:10.220 because that's how they operate like all these protests in the west right now like the pro

01:36:14.260 hamas and the you know the the communist whatever that are being instigated by the bad people that's

01:36:20.820 what was happening in iran in the 1960s and 70s these people were the ones who were starting the 0.78

01:36:27.800 protests and the riots and they were spreading lies about the shah and they were encouraging

01:36:32.260 other people to get involved and because at the time people did not have access to internet

01:36:38.340 um or information or anything like that right and then they trusted these people they thought that 0.95

01:36:44.520 you know because these people were clergies they were supposedly men of god that they wouldn't be 1.00

01:36:50.040 lying to them meanwhile all they do is lie like they breathe they lie and they tricked people 1.00

01:36:55.360 and people just like um went along with it unfortunately and the arrest of this quote holy

01:37:03.400 man touched on a nerve with many see the arrest of the holy man there's nothing holy about this

01:37:10.640 inbred savage demon again he tried to assassinate the shah so that shah took him to court right he 0.76

01:37:19.500 was prosecuted and he went to jail but they're making it seem as if he was arrested they're 0.61

01:37:23.820 making it seem as if the Shah just arrested him for no reason. There has not been a single mention

01:37:29.580 of the assassination attempt against the Shah. It's wild. Khomeini was exiled, his life spared

01:37:38.320 because of his respected religious status. No, his life was spared because when Khomeini tried

01:37:49.000 to assassinate the shah the the um the sentence for that is execution and then some people went 0.52

01:38:01.160 to the shah like khomeini's followers went to the shah and they begged the shah to you know

01:38:08.840 begged him for mercy and the shah being the kind-hearted person that he was said sure no

01:38:17.240 problem. We won't, you know, I'll change the sentence. Even though the court, even though

01:38:22.640 the justice system sentenced Khomeini to death, the Shah showed mercy and said, you know what?

01:38:30.440 I forgive you. Just go into exile. Live your life, you know, live your life however you want. 0.50

01:38:36.300 Just don't try to murder me anymore. They don't mention that. And I'll tell you something.

01:38:42.160 the only criticism I have of the Shah the only mistake he ever made is that he showed too much 0.99

01:38:49.460 kindness to the savage Islamists I kind of wish that he would not have shown mercy I kind of wish 1.00

01:38:56.660 he would have been more ruthless I kind of wish that he would have just allowed the savage jihadis 0.98

01:39:01.520 to have been executed because then maybe we would not have been in the situation we are today that's 0.98

01:39:06.800 only criticism i have of the shah but this story the way they are sharing this like they are

01:39:13.600 literally leaving out all of the critical information that will give you context right 0.95

01:39:20.320 so this is where the the false narrative comes from all of these ignorant people who claim the 0.95

01:39:27.040 shah was a dictator and tried to murder people right because they're they say that the shah 0.96

01:39:33.200 arrested khomeini and then wanted him exiled but because he was so powerful the shah got scared

01:39:40.000 right and then exiled him instead of executing him that's not that's not at all what happened

01:39:45.040 khomeini tried to assassinate the shah an independent judiciary prosecuted khomeini

01:39:54.560 found him guilty of attempted assassination sentenced him to death

01:39:59.040 Khomeini's followers didn't want him to die so Khomeini's followers went directly to the Shah

01:40:05.760 pleaded with him and begged with the Shah to save Khomeini's life the Shah agreed and sent

01:40:12.300 him to exile what kind of dictator does that guys what kind of dictator forgives the man 0.70

01:40:18.960 who tried to assassinate him that's the kind of person that the Shah was the Shah was not

01:40:24.660 vicious authoritarian dictator. The Shah loved his people and the Shah wanted the best for the

01:40:33.400 country. Again, his only mistake, his only mistake was showing too much kindness to these savage

01:40:39.840 jihadis. By the way, these jihadis are not coming into your countries and your politicians are

01:40:45.020 showing them a lot of kindness too. Just saying, just saying, learn. This is why we Iranians,

01:40:50.540 we're ruthless when it comes to these people we do not mince words we will call them out 1.00

01:40:56.140 because they're the ones who turned our country into a seventh century 1.00

01:40:59.740 islamic hellhole and i can tell you something as soon as ivan is free 1.00

01:41:05.660 we will never ever allow them to to gain any sort of control in in our country ever again um 1.00

01:41:14.380 marcos thank you so much i appreciate your support so yeah i mean we're we're only 12

01:41:19.660 minutes in on a 30 minute documentary but i mean uh go to bed thanks for joining us and uh yeah

01:41:26.140 you'll have to watch the rest uh tomorrow because it'll be on my my youtube channel thank you for

01:41:30.940 this um thank you for subscribing and for the support all right guys let's continue i'll try

01:41:37.180 to like interject less but again like just so much like every sentence coming out of here is a lie

01:41:43.340 like this this documentary i'm giving it like a minus 10 at this point with the cleric in iraq

01:41:50.460 the shah pressed ahead with his modernization program the country initially prospered

01:41:58.060 but the over ambitious plans were soon to fragment iranian society

01:42:03.420 and the seeds of discontent started to bloom 0.99

01:42:06.540 oh my gosh like they're literally calling this the best of al jazeera al jazeera is pure trash 0.75

01:42:18.000 the exile of ayatollah khomeini coincided with a period of relative prosperity for iran

01:42:32.880 I think the decade between 1963 and 1973 was

01:42:38.080 I wonder why that is.

01:42:40.300 I wonder why. 1.00

01:42:41.240 Because the savage jihadi clerics were out of the picture 1.00

01:42:44.260 so the Shah could actually focus on modernizing the country. 0.99

01:42:49.460 What you might call a decade of good management.

01:42:52.880 The economy did very well.

01:42:55.540 Inflation was kept very low.

01:42:57.580 Prosperity did filter down to the 0.91

01:43:01.160 But they're literally admitting that when the Islamic cleric, the evil demon man, was exiled, 0.93

01:43:07.480 Iran became a better country. They're literally admitting it. 0.97

01:43:11.720 New middle class, educational opportunities expanded very rapidly for everyone. True,

01:43:17.720 you know, I mean, obviously income distribution was not equal or fair, but everybody did better. 0.77

01:43:24.040 the shah attempted to capitalize on this economic success by cementing his position 0.98

01:43:31.740 as the nation's undisputed leader that's so stupid what do you mean cementing his position 1.00

01:43:38.880 as the nation's undisputed leader okay guys so here's what happened the shah okay the shah of 1.00

01:43:45.260 Iran. He assumed the throne in 1941. However, because the Shah loved Iran, loved his country,

01:43:55.980 loved his people, he made a promise to the Iranian nation. When he assumed the throne in 1941,

01:44:04.340 he said, I will not have a coronation ceremony until I have made sure that Iran is prosperous

01:44:12.400 first. He said, I am going to put my country first. I am going to first focus on building

01:44:19.220 my country, improving the country, improving the lives of Iranians. And then once I have

01:44:25.680 done that, once I have made this country a better place, then I will have an official

01:44:32.960 coronation ceremony. And that's what happened. So he assumed the throne in 1941. This coronation

01:44:40.620 ceremony happened in 1967 okay so that's what 26 years later have any of you ever heard of a monarch

01:44:55.260 who waited 26 years to have a coronation ceremony

01:45:02.220 king charles did it in what one year most monarchs do it in less the shah waited 26

01:45:09.500 years because he wanted to first make sure that he was putting his country first and his people

01:45:14.780 first the shaw gave women the right to vote in 1963 he had not even coordinated himself yet 0.79

01:45:21.340 because he was so focused on putting the people first and yet this garbage documentary

01:45:29.180 fails to mention all of that right fails to mention all that instead they just make it seem 0.77

01:45:34.540 as if he's just having this random party right this random party to cement his power

01:45:41.340 no it's a coronation ceremony except he waited 26 years because he put his country first he put his

01:45:47.660 people he put the welfare of his country first he wanted to make sure that iran was a flourishing

01:45:54.620 developing modernizing country and then he would celebrate with his people and yet this 0.89

01:46:04.060 jihadi garbage documentary just totally totally ignored all of that all of that context right um 0.92

01:46:18.620 was there divisions within the shah's circle on the right similar to what we're seeing 0.96

01:46:23.660 here in the usa no no there were no divisions um in that sense no um

01:46:29.980 um the the inner circle was fine so there there was some so you know once it got closer to um 1979

01:46:41.260 there was a difference of opinion on how the shah should have treated um the the the Islamists and

01:46:49.000 the communists in the streets um some of his advisors wanted him to be more forceful other 0.53

01:46:55.180 You know, did not want him to be. And then ultimately, the Shah chose not to use violence or force against the protesters because he said that he does not want his throne to be covered with the blood of Iranian people.

01:47:09.880 Because, again, he loved his people so much and he always put the Iranian people first and he never wanted to see any bloodshed or anything like that.

01:47:19.820 um all right having marginalized grand ayatollah khomeini at least for the moment the shah turned

01:47:27.360 his attention to iran's left-wing opposition with the cold okay by left-wing opposition

01:47:34.940 they mean the communists right again because there was a party called the tudeh party which was

01:47:41.860 funded by soviet russia and its purpose was to destabilize iran and turn iran into a soviet

01:47:50.800 asset right and the shah was preventing that and he prevented that by banning communism

01:47:56.080 world war at its height and the soviet union iran's most powerful neighbor the shah was 0.68

01:48:02.640 determined to stem the growing popularity of communism and socialism right so they just

01:48:09.820 mentioned the growing popularity of communism and socialism where was that coming from that was

01:48:16.520 being funded by the soviets because at that time the soviet union shared a border with iran the

01:48:24.620 soviet bloc shared a border with iran and the soviets were trying to expand into iran so of

01:48:31.680 course they were sending people and money and funding and they were trying to make communism 0.86

01:48:37.260 um more popular in iran and the shah saw that as a direct threat as he should right communism is a

01:48:45.160 threat to countries everywhere communism is evil look at north korea look at vietnam 0.51

01:48:50.760 toward the country warning of the threat i belong to the generation of the national movement

01:48:59.480 and mossad the east movement like you said oh my gosh they literally have a communist person here

01:49:06.400 they so i can't believe they actually have someone who um is a full-on communist funded by russia

01:49:20.000 right like the mosaddik movement was funded by the soviets and this is who they have here 0.79

01:49:25.280 on this documentary like this documentary is utter trash and the movement for democracy and for

01:49:31.280 movement for democracy guys i just explained to you when musad became the prime minister he tried

01:49:39.040 to suspend the constitution and turn iran into a dictatorship so he could hand it over to russia 0.58

01:49:47.760 and now this traitor this communist traitor is claiming that they wanted to make a turn 0.99

01:49:53.280 iran to a democracy it's utter nonsense guys full-on liar he's a traitor hot to start to catch 0.99

01:49:59.280 other uh independence we were the ones who tried to resist the shah and they had completely 0.97

01:50:06.640 suppressed all political movements or political parties that's an utter nonsense if the shah 1.00

01:50:13.120 suppressed all political movement how why the hell would he give women the right to vote you idiot 0.99

01:50:19.360 and even in the late 50s and early 60s when national front was trying to reorganize 1.00

01:50:26.800 the savag did its best to destroy the national the new national good you know what stavok should 0.78

01:50:31.920 have done more stavok should have worked harder to destroy all of you stavok's only mistake is 0.97

01:50:37.440 that they were too kind on you guys and they showed mercy to you because you are the enemies 0.61

01:50:42.000 of your by the way guys these people these people that are being interviewed they are responsible 0.53

01:50:47.920 for 1979 because they actually worked with the islamists to overthrow the shah and they are

01:50:54.160 responsible for turning iran into the seventh century islamic dictatorship that it is today 0.90

01:50:59.840 governed by sharia law the only person that we iranians hate more than the islamists are 0.62

01:51:06.000 communists like this person here this traitor to iran and i like the this person you would never 0.64

01:51:14.400 see him on iranian media right like you would never see him in a farsi language interview 0.95

01:51:22.160 because he is one of the bad guys right like we hate him we hate people like him

01:51:28.000 he's part of the problem and he's never in in farsi language media he would never he would 0.97

01:51:33.520 never dream of showing his face there because he's a traitor to the entire iranian nation 0.79

01:51:42.000 but but they speak in english right because they promote their jihadi communist propaganda to 0.57

01:51:47.520 non-iranians savak iran's internal security service had been established in 1957 with the

01:51:58.140 savak was basically the iranian version of the fbi and the cia guys right like savak is

01:52:04.280 they try to make it seem as if it was like this big thing it was basically like the cia and the 0.88

01:52:09.760 fbi and the reason that the shah actually made savak is because of all those communist traitors 0.81

01:52:17.160 who were funded by russia trying to destabilize the country every single functioning democracy in 0.53

01:52:23.320 the world has some sort of similar establishment right even canada we have csis we have csis we 0.78

01:52:30.520 have rcmp having police is a normal functioning part of society and yet the communists and

01:52:37.480 islamists constantly demonize savuk why because savuk was holding them at bay and we're probably

01:52:45.080 about to get into the portion of the documentary where they claim that Stavok tortured people,

01:52:50.520 whatever. Guys, I'm telling you right now, it's all utter nonsense and lies. Stavok didn't do 0.87

01:52:55.720 anything like that. And these people have no proof. They have no proof. It was just all lies.

01:53:00.640 Like at one point, at one point, these communists and Islamists were actually spreading propaganda 0.80

01:53:06.280 saying that Stavok had trained bears to rape prisoners. These people were literally claiming

01:53:13.840 me that there were Stavok trained bears who were raping political prisoners like that's how sick

01:53:20.800 these people are they made up all these like crazy lies about Stavok none of them proven by the way

01:53:26.440 they can't prove a single one right and they can never come up with um the name of a single

01:53:33.160 innocent person who was tortured or executed by Stavok they can't right like I'm still waiting

01:53:40.360 them to come up with the name of a person innocent person and the kind of people who were in jail 0.94

01:53:48.920 right by stavok they were the communists and the islamists right like all the terrorists you know 0.86

01:53:54.360 who was in savok jail hominy who's hominy hominy is the current supreme dictator of the islamic 0.85

01:54:01.000 republic right the evil demon man who succeeded khomeini he was in jail and if stavok was so

01:54:09.320 ruthless how the hell did khamenei survive right think about that like when you actually look at

01:54:16.180 the facts here all of their lies just falls apart but yeah let's just embrace ourselves for the 0.99

01:54:22.080 sabak nonsense they're going to push right now help of mossad and the cia its methods of widespread 0.96

01:54:28.840 arrests torture and executions soon created an atmosphere of fear and intimidation what sabak

01:54:36.620 had successfully done is to create an image of itself as far more powerful than it in fact was

01:54:43.100 our working assumption in iraq was that in any group of four or five one person would be a

01:54:49.680 these turn out to be exaggerations but was sabak brutal yes it was did it torture yes it did

01:54:58.340 no it didn't no it didn't sabak wasn't if sabak was brutal khamenei would be dead right now you 0.98

01:55:05.960 idiots according to human rights groups during the shah's um so so this is a documentary by al 1.00

01:55:14.240 jazeera um it's complete and utter nonsense i'm only 15 minutes in and it's it's garbage like 0.99

01:55:22.620 um i'm supposed to give a rating um out of 10 after this is done um right now my rating is 0.87

01:55:31.920 at like a negative 100 okay negative 10 like i'm literally at a negative 10 out of out of 10 like

01:55:38.660 it's not even a zero it's like below zero that's how bad this documentary is around 1000 political

01:55:45.140 opponents were executed with a further 4500 imprisoned so guys political opponents were not

01:55:54.940 executed people who were tried for treason and terrorism were executed okay they're making it

01:56:03.020 seem as if the shawl was just killing anyone who was opposed to him no there was an independent

01:56:08.540 judiciary anyone who was tried of treason and terrorism was executed right that's literally

01:56:18.700 what happened but they're making it seem as if the shawl was arbitrarily murdering people no these 0.56

01:56:24.380 people were murdering iranians they were destabilizing society they had the blood 0.57

01:56:29.660 of innocent iranians on their hands and the punishment for that was the death penalty 0.62

01:56:39.340 i was abducted the car stopped yeah and channel you're 100 right right like like these people

01:56:46.860 complaining about the shah right they're the same ones who are right now currently so ever since 0.90

01:56:53.660 these islamists and terrorists and communists took over iran in 1979 they have been doing 0.88

01:56:59.980 everything to iranian people that they falsely accused the shah of doing and in fact 1.00

01:57:05.500 right they're the ones the the jihadis and the islamists and the islamic regime 0.99

01:57:10.540 are the ones who are currently shooting teenage girls in the face throwing them off buildings 1.00

01:57:17.100 or raping them before they murder them and sell their organs that's what's happening today guys 0.98

01:57:21.580 that's literally what these people are doing right now in occupied iran they murder schoolgirls 1.00

01:57:27.900 but before they murder them they rape them to make sure that their souls don't go into heaven 0.98

01:57:33.660 and these are the people who are complaining about the shah everything coming out of their mouths 0.99

01:57:38.700 is 100 a lie and pulled me in they took me to be brief blindfolded which i later on found that

01:57:48.460 oh no so so this guy this guy's now making it okay so he's gonna now make up some sort of

01:57:53.820 fake story about how sabak treated him like to start at that time who should be shut up

01:58:01.180 the four thousand five hundred imprisoned let's let's listen to his jihadi the car stopped and 0.99

01:58:11.340 remember so so remember he already admitted that he was working with musad dick 0.96

01:58:17.420 so he's already admitted that he was a soviet funded foreign agent who was being funded by 0.75

01:58:26.540 the soviets to destabilize iran so treason right so he's already admitted that he was a treason

01:58:32.220 and he was funded by russia i mean they took me to be brief blindfolded which i later on found

01:58:40.460 that it was evine prison i was whipped then blindfolded again taken out to the hillsides

01:58:48.780 and thrown over a valley down to the bottom

01:58:53.660 oh no sabak's methods further 0.93

01:58:59.020 so he was whipped and then he was thrown down a valley that's the most ridiculous thing i've ever 0.66

01:59:04.380 heard of like who does that so they so they take him to jail they whip him and then they 0.87

01:59:09.580 throw him down a ravine like that's utter nonsense and by the way he already admitted that he was

01:59:18.380 he was a traitor contributed to the opposition to the shah's regime of course he's lying he's 0.88

01:59:25.020 100 he was increasingly seen as a dictator who had no tolerance for dissent 0.72

01:59:31.900 so the only people who saw the shah as a dictator was that you know jihadi communist

01:59:39.340 bald guy right why was the shah seen as a dictator because he banned communism

01:59:45.660 why did he ban communism because the soviets were trying to infiltrate and destabilize iran 0.51

01:59:52.300 and they were paying people like that fat bald guy to destabilize the country and the shah banned it 0.93

01:59:58.780 so now the communists are coming back and complaining oh the shah's a dictator 0.93

02:00:03.980 the shah's a dictator because he won't let the communists overthrow the country

02:00:07.740 The only people who complain about the Shah being a dictator are the communists who were trying to destabilize and the Shah was not letting them. 0.53

02:00:17.580 Yet the Shah believed that his ambitious economic development plans would help quell any hostility to his stifling of political freedom.

02:00:27.300 Oil revenues, he hoped, would lead to greater prosperity.

02:00:30.520 does that sound like a dictator to you guys by the way would a dictator want to industrialize 0.99

02:00:51.560 the country and turn it into a modern day japan would a dictator want to give women the right to

02:00:57.640 vote i mean look at the actual dictatorships today north korea the islamic republic cuba

02:01:07.400 those are what dictatorships are like the shah was not a dictator he was a progressive he wanted to

02:01:14.680 modernize the country even look even his enemies themselves even his enemies themselves are

02:01:20.520 admitting that he wanted to modernize and turn Iran into the next Japan.

02:01:27.080 So how the hell does that make him a dictator?

02:01:31.080 Financial center, the major economy of the of the world.

02:01:39.320 And no expense was to be spared in pursuit of this dream. In one year alone, 1974, the Shah 0.78

02:01:46.600 spent 16 billion dollars on a development plan which aimed to modernize the nation's infrastructure

02:01:53.240 while revamping its military

02:01:59.800 in order to finance his development goals the shah took an active role in opec

02:02:05.000 and insisted on imposing a rise in oil prices

02:02:10.520 his position caused a rift with his former supporters in washington

02:02:14.200 yeah the reason that he wanted a rise in oil prices is because the 1953 deal was incredibly

02:02:22.640 unfair and he had no choice but to sign it but then in the early 1970s he had more sway and he

02:02:31.060 actually did an interview about it he said the cost of living has got up inflation has gone up

02:02:36.020 so of course i'm gonna raise the price of oil but they're making it seem like he just arbitrarily 0.51

02:02:41.860 did that for no reason again like this this documentary is trash they're um they're leaving

02:02:48.420 out so much information and context told him that that in nixon administration there are people

02:02:56.100 who are turning against him he thought i'm exaggerating

02:03:02.580 but the shah was undeterred indeed as the country's coffers swelled he grew still bolder

02:03:11.860 In 1974, he spearheaded a 14% rise in oil prices that crippled Western economies, insisting it was in Iran's national interest.

02:03:23.440 And it appeared that the...

02:03:24.720 Yeah, it was in Iran's national interest because up until that point, the West had been just taking oil, pretty much stealing it. 0.55

02:03:36.000 so again so this flies in the narrative you know like all these like jihadis and communists and 0.56

02:03:42.500 islamists coming to the chat and they're like the shah was just a western puppet if the shah was a 0.73

02:03:47.840 western puppet why did he raise oil prices right they never think about these nuances they never 0.99

02:03:53.860 think about these facts it's just they just constantly spout the islamist communist propaganda 0.71

02:03:59.480 but then you present them with a fact like this and they don't know how to respond

02:04:05.180 because they don't actually know the history of what happens.

02:04:09.300 The Shah was at the height of his powers.

02:04:12.120 He was now, in 1974, the emperor of oil, the man who'd made it. 0.85

02:04:16.560 He was on the scene. Iran was a great power again.

02:04:19.380 And therefore, of course, the nature of the relationship is going to change.

02:04:21.720 People were not going to treat you with the sort of kid gloves, perhaps,

02:04:25.300 that maybe you were used to beforehand.

02:04:27.000 You were no longer emerging. You had emerged.

02:04:29.600 And therefore, if you'd emerged, it was sort of big boys' games,

02:04:32.520 big boys' rules and big boys' games. 0.68

02:04:33.940 And I think the Shah never quite adjusted to this fact.

02:04:38.600 And as a nation, Iran suffered growing pains as it attempted to modernize too quickly.

02:04:45.300 The explosion in oil prices in 1973-74, oddly enough, made Iran wealthier overnight.

02:04:55.420 But the Shah's attempt to inject all that money into the economy.

02:04:59.980 So someone asked, why doesn't Al Jazeera bring someone on to give the opposing perspective? That's because Al Jazeera is a propaganda mouthpiece for Islamic terrorism. So they're only going to promote the jihadi Islamic side. 0.89

02:05:18.100 That's why before starting this documentary, I already gave it a rating of 1 out of 10.

02:05:23.760 I'm already at a negative 10 with Al Jazeera. 0.97

02:05:26.740 So this documentary is pure trash. 0.95

02:05:31.280 The economy at once had an enormously disruptive impact on the economy. 0.97

02:05:37.040 We went almost overnight from a fairly stable economy to very rapid inflation.

02:05:43.760 housing price out of the reach of most people.

02:05:48.220 A flooding of migrants from rural areas into the large cities 0.94

02:05:52.900 and therefore the creation of shanty towns and a worker underclass.

02:05:57.840 The broken promise of prosperity led to increasing resentment against the Shah.

02:06:03.040 People from all walks of life were angered by the new economic hardship

02:06:07.020 and by the corruption seen as endemic in the Shah's inner circle. 0.95

02:06:11.620 So that makes no sense. 0.58

02:06:13.760 And what actually happened is at that time, Khomeini, who was in exile and he was supposed to be just living his life, like doing whatever evil demonic men do at that, like for many years, he had been sending in like radio cassettes and, you know, like audio cassettes into the country with his like Islamic speeches. 0.51

02:06:35.360 right and then he kept on like spouting the propaganda about the shah being a dictator

02:06:41.200 and corrupt and whatever so for them to just blame what's happening right now on the shah

02:06:46.280 makes absolutely no sense um this narrative i have not heard in other documentaries this

02:06:52.180 narrative is a hundred percent false and it's just a hundred percent a lie like again this 0.84

02:06:56.960 entire documentary is is trash but this is this is why non-iranians think the shah was a dictator 0.71

02:07:04.460 Because, you know, organizations like Al Jazeera, which get paid billions of dollars by Qatar and the Islamic Republic to spread jihadi propaganda, make it out there. 0.84

02:07:17.880 And you guys never hear about the actual truth. 0.54

02:07:25.940 Our struggle was mainly aimed at the Shah himself.

02:07:30.100 It wasn't about America or Britain.

02:07:31.500 we're both interfering in our internal affairs like you you have you guys have no idea like

02:07:38.820 when i see these people like i just want to swear so bad and i'm like holding myself back right now

02:07:43.980 because every word coming out of his mouth is a lie that man he's literally admitting that he 0.92

02:07:50.160 helped to overthrow the shah and turn iran into a seventh century islamic hellhole governed by

02:07:55.920 sharia law and he sounds proud about it too and if if he's so proud about what he did to iran 0.88

02:08:04.480 why the hell is he living in a western country that's my question all these people that are 0.77

02:08:08.640 being interviewed every single person being interviewed they were all involved in overthrowing 0.96

02:08:14.720 the shah and turning iran into what it is today so why the hell are they living in western countries 0.91

02:08:19.680 that's what they wanted and yet they have the luxury of living in the west and the rest of us 0.99

02:08:25.920 have to deal with the blood the tears the murders of iranian people which is caused by these these 0.95

02:08:33.600 terrorists here it was all about the shah and especially about the pahlavi family 0.96

02:08:40.400 because the royal court had a great role in plundering our interests and they also had a 0.93

02:08:45.040 in our lack of freedoms but by now the Shah would brook no criticism in 1975

02:08:54.720 Iran became a single-party state with the Shah confirmed as its all-powerful

02:09:00.300 leader when the Shah confirmed as its all-powerful leader guys um monarchies

02:09:11.560 are above politics that makes literally no sense to me like that that is the 0.99

02:09:17.620 most stupid things I've ever heard the all-powerful leader that's literally 0.99

02:09:23.740 what a monarchy is they are it's called being the head of state they make it 0.99

02:09:30.460 seem as if the Shah became the head of state in 1975 the Shah became the head

02:09:35.580 of state in 1941 when he assumed the throne. He has already been the head of state for over 30 years.

02:09:45.640 This narrative is utter nonsense. He became increasingly hubristic towards the politics

02:09:51.500 of the country. He established a one-party state in 1975. He changed the calendar in 1976.

02:09:57.960 Who's this random British to? I mean, he did all these things really without any rhyme or reason, 1.00

02:10:01.820 rather really to support his own political ideas and of course this all offended many many people 0.93

02:10:07.200 it was a it was a confluence of uh of bad decisions oh my gosh okay so the shah did i 0.65

02:10:14.480 did i hear so this guy's saying that you know one of the authoritarian things the shah did

02:10:21.840 was change the calendar and that makes him a dictator unfit to rule like like do you see the

02:10:28.740 level of um insanity that we iranians deal with like the the amount of gaslighting right the 0.63

02:10:36.180 amount of gaslighting and lies and propaganda that's put out there to try and smear the shah 0.82

02:10:43.320 in order to justify turning iran into a seventh century islamic hellhole governed by sharia law 0.99

02:10:51.560 oh no he changed the calendar let's overthrow him and bring sharia law and stone women to death 0.90

02:10:58.660 The Shah remained convinced he had the support of religious clerics who he believed were 0.97

02:11:06.880 united against communist elements.

02:11:09.320 It was to prove a fatal miscalculation.

02:11:13.080 The mistake the US made in Afghanistan in the 80s, thinking that the Ben Ladins of the

02:11:19.620 world are potential allies against the Soviet Union, the Shah made in the 60s and 70s. 0.82

02:11:26.260 They strengthened the clergy thinking that they would fight the Communists.

02:11:34.120 One of the Shah's fiercest critics had a far-reaching influence on all opposition movements.

02:11:40.700 Even from his exile in Iraq, Grand Ayatollah Khomeini's condemnation of the Shah and his

02:11:45.820 foreign allies was resonating through the very heart of Iran, fomenting the protests

02:11:52.260 that would quickly develop into a revolutionary movement.

02:11:56.740 Inside Iran, any voice of opposition was crushed brutally.

02:12:03.100 I think it's going on.

02:12:04.100 He was exiled, and from there he had this freedom to...

02:12:08.420 Yeah, again, they don't mention he was exiled

02:12:12.100 because he tried to assassinate the Shah.

02:12:15.480 The sentence for that was death,

02:12:17.600 but the Shah showed him mercy, forgave him, exiled him. 0.94

02:12:22.260 And then from his exile, this savage Islamic jihadi continued to attack the Shah and eventually was successful. 0.97

02:12:31.700 So, guys, for all of you non-Iranians, let this be a lesson to you. 0.98

02:12:36.740 Do not show these Islamic terrorists any mercy. 1.00

02:12:41.160 Do not negotiate with them. 1.00

02:12:42.880 Do not show mercy to them.

02:12:45.780 Because you give them an inch, they will take a mile.

02:12:48.260 the Shah's biggest mistake was showing mercy to this evil demon because when 0.88

02:12:55.700 he showed this evil demon mercy he said okay that I'm gonna continue what I'm 0.95

02:13:02.780 doing and he continued advocating for Sharia law and and lying about the shah 0.83

02:13:08.360 and indoctrinating people until eventually he was successful you cannot 1.00

02:13:15.860 trust these people and unfortunately your governments are now importing these islamists 1.00

02:13:20.820 into your countries on mass because multiculturalism is diversity 1.00

02:13:28.660 just a warning you know just a warning from iranians not just me but all the iranians in 0.86

02:13:32.580 the chat as well just a little warning right because when you when you try to negotiate 0.69

02:13:38.660 with these people when you legitimize them you know what happens they take over your country 0.85

02:13:45.700 and they send it back to the 7th century that's what happened to iran in 1979 out against the shah 0.98

02:13:54.260 no one inside could dare to do that therefore gradually he became the main speaker

02:14:02.500 of the opposition inside iran and he was continuously attacking the shah's brutality 0.62

02:14:09.380 and the people oh no look at that look look look at the okay guys this is the worst image

02:14:18.720 that al jazeera could come up with when they're talking about the shah's brutality okay let's go

02:14:24.280 back here this is the worst image right so they're basically dragging a violent protester away this

02:14:33.240 is literally what riot police do in western countries we have seen footage after footage

02:14:39.960 after footage of violent savage jihadi protesters who are being arrested and dragged away by police

02:14:49.640 right and yet this is the this is the worst that al jazeera can come up with when they talk about

02:14:57.560 the shah's violent attacks and savage attacks against the people right the the guy's not even

02:15:03.800 injured he's not even injured they're just they're just dragging him away as riot police do right 0.81

02:15:09.880 they were dealing they were dealing with the violent islamists and jihadis but this is the 0.73

02:15:14.680 worst they could come up with keep that in mind guys okay keep that in mind all of the lies about

02:15:21.800 the shah right you would think they would have something to back it up and yet this is the worst

02:15:28.680 they can come up with when it comes to um the shah brutally cracking down on protesters arresting 0.81

02:15:35.160 people and taking them away this is actually very very um nice treatment compared to many of the

02:15:44.280 things i've seen police do when dealing with violent protesters right like this is nothing

02:15:51.800 and the people would soon begin to desert the Shah.

02:16:13.300 By the mid-70s, the Shah's ambitious development programs

02:16:17.360 were costing much more than the country's oil revenues could generate.

02:16:21.800 In 1977, Iran's economy collapsed.

02:16:27.480 With high unemployment and soaring inflation, ordinary Iranians were bearing the brunt of

02:16:32.620 the new financial crisis, and they turned their wrath against their king.

02:16:38.120 The fundamental reason he failed is precisely because of his success, in this sense.

02:16:47.320 And he changed the fabric of it.

02:16:50.500 Oh, thank you so much.

02:16:52.120 I appreciate that, Memento.

02:16:53.400 Thank you for being here. 0.59

02:16:54.920 Thank you for being a part of this as I vent my frustration about all of the fake news and propaganda and jihadi nonsense being put out there. 0.91

02:17:06.020 But I hope that at least you guys can take a lesson from this and at least learn and understand about how the Islamists and the jihadis lie, right? 0.61

02:17:21.900 Because as Iranians, we are starting to see similar patterns in Western countries. 0.59

02:17:28.420 We're starting to see similar behavior with this alliance of, you know, the red and the black. 0.94

02:17:34.560 Red being communists, black being the Islamists. 0.98

02:17:39.440 So take this as a lesson, take this as a warning. 0.95

02:17:44.160 Because what happened in Iran did not happen overnight, right? 0.56

02:17:48.020 What happened in Iran began in 1941.

02:17:51.900 and it took almost 40 years right it culminated in 1979 but 1979 did not happen overnight

02:18:00.860 and what we are now seeing in the west is like the beginning it's like the beginning

02:18:07.660 stages of that and if you guys are not careful if you guys do not start fighting back right now

02:18:15.260 Now, God forbid, God forbid, 10 years, 20 years, 30 years, who knows what's going to happen when these people gain a critical mass and when these people have indoctrinated enough of your people to join their cause, right?

02:18:34.880 I mean, already, already, like with the pro Hamas, pro Palestine movements, you see all of these like young people who actually think Hamas are freedom fighters and it's a resistance. 0.84

02:18:46.580 Meanwhile, those of us from the Middle East literally know that they are savage Islamic terrorists. 0.82

02:18:53.020 And yet. You have to ask yourself, how, why is it that, you know, people in your country do not see that? 0.99

02:19:03.820 there is an indoctrination happening it's been going on for a while and people need to wake up

02:19:10.640 so you know please learn learn from the lessons of of what happened to iran and do not let it

02:19:16.480 happen to to your countries and take the threat very seriously but no thank you for the support

02:19:22.100 thank you for being here and again this so this is a documentary by al jazeera al jazeera is one 0.93

02:19:27.880 the biggest reasons why people in the west um think that hamas are freedom fighters so

02:19:34.600 i knew at the beginning this documentary is 100 garbage um i'm supposed to give it a rating of

02:19:40.600 you know between one or you know zero and ten um this rating right now it's it's at like a minus

02:19:48.440 10 because they have left out so much information um yeah anyways let's continue but but thank you

02:19:58.360 for the support appreciate that running society he created the new middle class he created

02:20:03.960 incredible expectations in the working class he kept telling them that they're going to live lives

02:20:10.200 comparable to germany to japan so you have a middle class you have an educated technocratic 0.56

02:20:17.360 class you have a working class that expects more and more but you can't deliver you can't deliver

02:20:24.080 on the expectations because the expectations are so grandiose again remember every single person 0.84

02:20:32.400 that al jazeera has interviewed in this documentary so far is either an islamist or a communist right

02:20:39.040 so these are the people who actually wanted the 1979 islamic revolution to happen

02:20:47.360 to be almost absurd from his exile khomeini continued his stinging criticism of the okay

02:20:54.480 look look how evil he looks like look how evil this man looks and yet for some reason

02:21:01.200 for some reason people thought that he was like anyways it blows my mind it blows my mind

02:21:07.200 and his message was spreading through the mosques of iran through a vast network of clerics

02:21:12.000 ah guys did you did you catch that part did you catch that part the jihadi islamic propaganda

02:21:20.960 it was spreading through the mosques it was spreading through the imams

02:21:27.840 does that sound familiar to what's happening in your countries

02:21:32.080 what's happening in your mosques what's happening with the imams the the stuff they spout about

02:21:37.200 america about jihad do you see how it happens that's how it happened in iran 1.00

02:21:47.520 but let's let's listen to that part again because they were stupid enough to admit it they were 1.00

02:21:52.320 literally stupid enough to admit that um they were indoctrinating people 1.00

02:21:59.360 through the mosques let's let's let's just listen to that again 1.00

02:22:02.800 it's it's exactly like nyc and dearborn 100 percent anyways let's go back to the part where

02:22:17.000 they say that they were spreading their jihadi narrative through the mosques spreading through

02:22:24.180 the mosques of iran through a vast network of clerics we were transmitting the imam's

02:22:32.360 messages statements and speeches to iran by telephone we had contacts in cities in iran

02:22:39.400 we were calling them at night and sending

02:22:43.640 they're literally admitting that the imams were spreading messages of jihad and sharia law

02:22:51.320 and indoctrinating people through the mosques how many mosques are in your countries guys 0.55

02:22:57.960 how many of them can you trust just saying by the way um so in in my live stream earlier today 0.58

02:23:05.960 because i do like a you know i do a daily live stream like for my actual podcast at 12 noon

02:23:11.400 um i spoke about um the fact that the islamic republic actually has thousands of mosques

02:23:18.600 around the world where they continue to do exactly what they did in iran in your countries

02:23:25.480 And last summer, Germany actually shut down one of these mosques.

02:23:31.700 It was called the Islamic Cultural Center.

02:23:35.160 It was in Hamburg.

02:23:36.940 And the government of Germany found out that the mosque was being used to radicalize people.

02:23:44.100 The mosque was being used to promote jihad.

02:23:47.940 the mosque was being reused to um train people to eventually overthrow the government of germany

02:23:58.500 that was the islamic cultural center in hamburg and um it was shut down

02:24:04.820 german government shut it down because they were like oh 0.98

02:24:07.060 shit there's a bunch of people here who built a mosque and they are trying to radicalize the 0.99

02:24:11.220 population there's thousands of them in your countries guys just saying and you know it's 0.70

02:24:21.220 it's not me they're they're the ones admitting it they're literally admitting that that they 0.95

02:24:24.900 use the mosque system to indoctrinate people let's listen in the tape of the imam's daily

02:24:32.980 speeches by telephone they would record it and the next day they would be distributed in meetings

02:24:39.780 ceremonies universities mosques all over iran and people were made aware of his words

02:24:48.500 the so-called cassettes revolution was underway 0.98

02:24:54.180 promoted by the imams in the castles

02:25:00.660 so this was the start of the revolution at the point i was responsible for the

02:25:06.100 the progressive party of the Rasakhlis party, which was a unique party of Iran.

02:25:13.840 And I was travelling around the country and making speeches, telling people, beware of

02:25:22.820 what is going to happen to you.

02:25:27.220 But the people were not listening.

02:25:33.540 In this newly charged atmosphere it was Khomeini's message that was resonating.

02:25:41.560 Why was the message resonating? 0.94

02:25:43.500 Because they had been quietly indoctrinating people and radicalizing people in the mosques. 0.97

02:25:50.140 Very similar to what's happening in your countries, right?

02:25:53.660 And not just happening in your mosques, guys, but also happening in your academic institutions,

02:25:58.100 right? 1.00

02:25:59.100 People who are, you know, gays for Gaza, queers for Palestine. 0.98

02:26:05.780 It's mind blowing to me that like there's literally a gays for Gaza or queers for Palestine. 0.99

02:26:11.060 That's like the equivalent of saying chickens for KFC or cows for Burger King. 0.94

02:26:15.640 And yet these people in your countries have been so indoctrinated that they can't, like

02:26:20.340 they've lost all their critical thinking skills.

02:26:22.420 They saw Khomeini as the symbol of ultimate opposition to the monarchy.

02:26:34.420 There were plenty of clerics who also opposed the Shah.

02:26:39.420 But they were seen as people who were willing to compromise.

02:26:44.420 And Kwame Nirelli upped all of them by saying, no, we don't want to go back to a constitutional monarchy.

02:26:53.140 We want actually a completely new type of republic, an Islamic republic.

02:27:01.200 What is an Islamic republic, by the way?

02:27:05.820 Do you know what an Islamic republic is?

02:27:07.600 It's literally word salad. 1.00

02:27:08.960 So I'll explain what happens before this guy talks, because it's like jihadi garbage anyway. 1.00

02:27:15.280 So basically what they do is they, so again, they just admitted, they just admitted that Iran was a constitutional monarchy. 1.00

02:27:26.000 Okay, so that's the first point.

02:27:27.720 Did you guys catch that?

02:27:29.000 He said, no, I don't want another constitutional monarchy.

02:27:33.020 so how the hell could the shah have been a dictator if iran was a constitutional monarchy

02:27:39.180 and had a democratically elected parliament right so that's the first point so all you know even 0.94

02:27:45.180 like that whole garbage nonsense that they had about most sad dip and then they claim the shah

02:27:49.660 was a dictator okay if that was the case then how how are they saying that they don't want to go 0.98

02:27:58.140 back to a constitutional do you see how they lie so that's the first thing so they just they just

02:28:02.940 contradicted their own narrative by admitting that Iran was a constitutional monarchy,

02:28:09.540 number one. Now they're saying, okay, we want a new type of government. We want an Islamic

02:28:15.700 republic. There's no such thing as an Islamic republic. So what actually happens is they create 1.00

02:28:21.660 an Islamic dictatorship. They just call it a republic to fool people to think that there's 0.97

02:28:27.940 some sort of freedom or something but basically what it is is now you have an actual authoritarian

02:28:34.420 figure okay that controls everything no one can do anything no one can say anything without approval 0.54

02:28:42.260 from the islamic cleric so they actually took a functioning constitutional monarchy under the shah

02:28:50.820 and turn it into an actual islamic dictatorship iran was not a dictatorship prior to 1979

02:28:57.940 these are the people who turned iran into a dictatorship just listen to like what he says

02:29:05.280 actually spelling out what that meant sensing the growing influence of the outspoken cleric

02:29:11.440 the shah decided to retaliate in january 1978 he commissioned the writing of a stinging article

02:29:18.380 attacking khomeini very personally and had it put on the front page of iran's largest newspaper

02:29:23.640 he grossly miscalculated the so that is the first time that i've heard that the shah did this

02:29:31.280 because in the other documentaries they don't know who wrote the article so i don't know what

02:29:37.760 facts they have if anything if anything guys knowing how the islamic republic operates and

02:29:45.140 how these islamists and jihadis lie i would not be surprised if the article was written by someone 0.98

02:29:51.640 from the islamic republic itself in order to manufacture anger right in order to manufacture

02:30:00.300 anger against the shah i have not heard of any other documentary that has made this claim that

02:30:08.160 it came from the shah i mean for the iranians in the comments if i'm wrong let me know i mean

02:30:12.200 maybe this is maybe this is accurate i don't know but i've never heard of um this version of events

02:30:18.820 consequences this anonymous article went in describing khomeini as among others an indian

02:30:27.120 so you know obviously not native iranian but also saying he was a british

02:30:31.000 khomeini was indian his father's from india we all know this right so again they're like

02:30:37.780 discrediting this fact like to say the guy's not even iranian and he thinks he thinks he knows more

02:30:43.840 about us than do yeah an anonymous article guys i guarantee you like one of khomeini's supporters

02:30:50.440 probably wrote that article and i'm actually quite surprised that they still have not mentioned

02:30:57.280 cinema rex let's see if they mention cinema rex guys because again cinema rex is incredibly

02:31:02.540 important here by and had sort of licentious habits and uh um which weren't fully described

02:31:09.320 but i mean people got the idea and of course this is the thing that sparked off protests

02:31:12.880 particularly in the home the protests quickly spread across Iran

02:31:19.380 throughout the year there was an ever-growing tide of strikes and

02:31:23.400 demonstrations yet many of the protesters had little in common apart

02:31:28.720 from their implacable opposition to the monarch you know people like myself

02:31:34.080 including thousands of government employees and even factory workers who

02:31:40.040 went on strike in iran for about six months and had no demand but liberty and and iranian

02:31:49.080 intellectuals who demanded democracy none of these people went on strike for it

02:31:57.240 they had democracy like what sort of democracy did you want like 1.00

02:32:00.520 idiots islamic revolution or islamic rule or islamic government they wanted a secular government 0.99

02:32:07.960 so this is the interesting part so all of these leftists okay so this is what we talk about 0.99

02:32:14.180 the unholy alliance of the red and the black all of these so-called progressives they joined and

02:32:21.820 supported the islamists right because they both hated the shah and then the leftists thought okay 0.95

02:32:31.460 well once we overthrow the shah we'll get rid of the savage jihadis and we'll take over right 0.98

02:32:37.520 The leftists thought that they could take advantage of the savage Islamic jihadis. 0.99

02:32:43.820 This is why we Iranians, we hate the West as well. 0.81

02:32:47.020 Like, we literally despise them because they helped the jihadis turn Iran into what it is today. 0.96

02:32:57.300 And they still have no shame about it. 0.97

02:33:01.060 In such a volatile atmosphere, a single tragic event proved to be a tipping point.

02:33:07.520 in august 1978 a fire broke out in a cinema in abadan in southwestern iran 400

02:33:15.680 okay this is important let's see how they um talk about cinema wrecks people were burnt to death

02:33:24.720 by now even apparent accidents were being interpreted as having political links

02:33:30.640 the shah had so lost the kind of public relations propaganda war

02:33:37.520 guys did you catch that okay so al jazeera just implied that cinema rex was an accident that was

02:33:51.240 blamed on the shah guys that's not what happened it is literally proven like you can look this up

02:33:59.160 on the internet you can search it up cinema rex okay what actually happened is people that were

02:34:06.220 connected to Khomeini, so the Islamic terrorists, they barricaded the doors of a movie theater,

02:34:15.180 they prevented everyone from, everyone inside from escaping, they poured jet fuel all around

02:34:22.700 the cinema, they lit it on fire, over 400 people were burned alive in the movie theater, and then 0.52

02:34:31.740 they blamed the shah and they blamed sabuk so the islamists murdered iranians

02:34:40.540 in order to create a false flag event to blame the shah of iran yeah so when so when they put

02:34:47.820 out this false narrative that the shah was brutal and sabuk murdered people they're actually uh

02:34:54.380 referring to cinema rex however it was them they are the ones who did it but at the time when it 0.70

02:35:04.300 happened uh they lied about it they said the shah did it and the iranian people believed them

02:35:11.180 because you know these people are supposed to be clergy men of god whatever um and so people like

02:35:19.260 that's what sparked the violent riots because the iranian people thought the shah had murdered 0.73

02:35:25.260 innocent people it was only unfortunately after after the islamists were successful 0.71

02:35:34.220 in taking over the country that the truth came out and then iranians found out oh it wasn't 0.92

02:35:42.060 The Shah never was responsible for cinema wrecks. It was Khomeini and Khomeini supporters, right? Again, guys, this is what jihadis do. This is what Islamists do. They will murder people for the cause of jihad. 0.73

02:36:03.800 they will literally murder anyone and everyone they have to and then they will lie about it 1.00

02:36:09.800 right like takiyah they will lie about it because in their demented demonic evil heads 0.98

02:36:17.720 it is okay to lie if it is for the purposes of implementing sharia law and advocating for jihad 0.84

02:36:25.080 and yet this documentary literally implied that cinema rex was an accident it was not an accident

02:36:36.660 it was the jihadis did it it's common knowledge like this is horrifying al jazeera is literally 0.83

02:36:45.320 lying right now 100% lying because it is a proven fact that it was homie supporters who 0.86

02:36:52.560 who are responsible for cinema wrecks oh my gosh like this is wild to me like i have to like 0.93

02:37:01.120 cinema in abadan in southwestern iran 400 people were burned to death by now even apparent accidents

02:37:10.080 were being interpreted as having political links did you hear that they called it an apparent

02:37:16.160 accident right why are they saying that because they don't like because al jazeera is a mouthpiece

02:37:24.880 for the islamic republic right al jazeera is not going to admit that the islamic republic did it

02:37:33.120 al jazeera is not going to admit that um the islamists were responsible for murdering people

02:37:40.080 because Al Jazeera does not want you guys to know how jihad works.

02:37:46.380 They don't want you to know how Islamists operate.

02:37:49.800 So they are literally lying to you and claiming that this was an accident. 0.99

02:37:54.700 It is wild. It is insane.

02:37:57.240 The Shah had so lost the kind of public relations propaganda war

02:38:01.080 that it was widely believed that the fire was set by agents of the government.

02:38:06.400 it was totally outfounded but nevertheless clearly this was you know that you hear that he had lost

02:38:12.320 the publicity high ground if you want there is now more than i think ample evidence to conclude

02:38:18.860 that the clergy did this and they did it oh my god you know what at least they admitted themselves 0.86

02:38:26.520 so the guy just said you know to his credit he just said the clergy did it right the islamic clergy 0.92

02:38:35.780 were responsible for murdering people he just admitted it to radicalize them but the supporters

02:38:44.000 of the clerics deny this allegation uh nonsense how to start it well all that is certain uh is

02:38:52.980 that a fire broke out in this cinema rex in obadan and the doors were locked and people could not get

02:38:59.200 out but this he is full-on lying it is it is documented like it is 100 documented it's not

02:39:08.620 even like um a debated issue al jazeera is literally bringing on someone who is flat out

02:39:15.540 lying in order to make people think that this issue is at debate this is a non-issue guys like

02:39:22.520 in in um in farsi language documentaries about what happened leading up to the revolution

02:39:30.360 it is an accepted fact historical fact that it was khomeini and his supporters that are

02:39:37.080 responsible for the fire and yet see how easily they lie in english and they try to confuse you

02:39:44.120 into thinking oh we don't know it might it might not have been al jazeera is the worst guys this

02:39:48.840 is why i say you can never trust al jazeera guys there's a reason that al jazeera is banned

02:39:55.160 um in middle eastern countries like saudi arabia uae egypt bahrain jordan this is why

02:40:03.800 because all they do is lie and they promote jihad i suppose that the islamic movement in iran or 0.83

02:40:09.640 any of its personalities had the need of creating an atrocity in order to you know uh vilify the 0.80

02:40:16.440 the shah's regime i mean it's just what should i say infantile whatever the truth the tragedy

02:40:25.020 attracted thousands more protesters to the streets so did you hear that so the documentary says

02:40:32.120 whatever the truth whatever the truth the tragedy attracted people again they are trying to downplay

02:40:38.840 the fact that it was the islamic clergy people right that the men of god right the the people

02:40:48.360 of the imams in the mosques right they're trying to downplay the fact that it was the imams who

02:40:54.540 ordered 400 innocent iranians to be burned alive in a movie theater in order to justify in order

02:41:01.800 to create a false flag narrative to justify overthrowing the shah and al-jazeera is saying 0.51

02:41:08.700 whatever whatever the truth is right because they don't want you to know that this is how jihad 0.81

02:41:13.900 operates this is how the islamists operate this is what they did in iran 0.90

02:41:21.660 it's it's how they operate constantly like this is what they do um like this is what the palestinians 0.99

02:41:26.780 do when they're attacking israel right like they'll literally murder their own people and 0.91

02:41:30.540 blame israel right like it's it's the same mo everywhere and then they try to downplay it and 0.68

02:41:37.820 deny it like it's it's wild to me that this documentary is questioning who is responsible

02:41:47.580 for cinema rex right guys cinema rex is pivotal to the islamic revolution like whenever someone

02:41:56.540 says to me goldie can you explain in like 60 seconds why the islamic regime islamic revolution

02:42:05.500 happened if i only have 60 seconds what i will say is well there was a lot of tension and then

02:42:12.540 in 1978 the imams burned uh people alive in a movie theater they blamed the shah

02:42:19.820 that angered people and they came out because they trusted the islamic clergy

02:42:25.900 they didn't think the islamic clergy would lie to them so they trusted the islamic clergy and

02:42:30.940 thought that the shah murdered people so they came out and they rebelled and eventually 0.67

02:42:34.780 the shah being the kind-hearted person that he was didn't want to cause bloodshed

02:42:41.260 and then the islamic republic took over and then after the islamic republic took over people found 0.89

02:42:45.820 out that it was the islamic republic that had murdered iranians there you go increasingly

02:42:52.700 desperate the shah declared martial law newly emboldened his troops were soon to commit an 0.93

02:43:00.460 atrocity which became known as black friday and which further loosened the ruler's grip on power

02:43:10.620 so again this is another like false narrative propaganda the reason that black friday happened

02:43:17.180 is because at that point you had a lot of kgv assets um in iran the palestinians were there

02:43:24.940 right yasser arafat and the palestinians were there and you had these foreign chaos agents with

02:43:31.180 with arms who had come into the country to support the ayatollahs they started shooting at um

02:43:39.260 the shah's people and so of course they retaliated and so this documentary they're not going to

02:43:45.020 mention that it was the islamists who fired the first shot right they're not going to mention

02:43:50.620 that the same way that they didn't mention that it was the imams who started the fire in cinema

02:43:57.100 rex right this is how they twist the narrative this is how they omit important factual evidence

02:44:05.420 because this is how they can justify turning iran into a brutal islamic dictatorship right

02:44:13.100 they have to lie because when you actually look at the truth when you look at the history you

02:44:17.900 realized the shah was an amazing person who loved his country who wanted to modernize iran 0.69

02:44:24.300 and the jihadis didn't like that so they lied about him they used to kia 0.70

02:44:31.340 and eventually unfortunately they were successful in 1979

02:44:41.340 today shahada square looks like any other busy intersection in the south of the city but it is

02:44:47.100 of huge historical significance because it was here at the end of 1978 that opposition

02:44:53.340 to the shah turned from protest to open revolution in september when martial law was declared in

02:45:03.580 tehran there was a clash between demonstrators and troops a large number of people and i think

02:45:11.820 really after that for the shaft things began to go downhill very rapidly

02:45:20.620 by now protesters of all political persuasions were chanting khomeini so do you notice how like 0.67

02:45:28.140 they're showing images and like video footage of um the islamists who are causing damage and

02:45:36.220 destruction but they're not showing any footage of people injured or bloodied or anything like 0.63

02:45:44.380 that right like this is similar to like the pro-ballastine pro-hamas demonstrations right

02:45:51.260 where like all the jihadis are basically causing fires and damaging property and then it's just

02:45:58.860 like the police are just standing around going what the heck is going on right like if if this

02:46:05.580 This was such a brutal crackdown.

02:46:08.360 Where's the blood? Where's all the injured people?

02:46:10.460 Do you see how they're trying to change the narrative?

02:46:14.080 The Shah's people were standing around trying to maintain order, trying to keep the peace. 0.99

02:46:20.480 And it was the Islamists who were causing problems. 0.95

02:46:23.120 His name as his revolutionary rhetoric began to galvanize the various opposition groups. 0.80

02:46:28.240 in a desperate attempt to silence his most outspoken critic

02:46:36.160 the shah convinced the then vice president of iraq saddam hussein

02:46:40.480 to expel khomeini from the holy city of najaf

02:46:43.620 from where he had continued to agitate against the iranian ruler

02:46:47.640 in october 1978 khomeini and his entourage found refuge

02:46:54.860 in the small town of Neuf-le-Château, just outside Paris.

02:46:59.540 But if the Shah had hoped that the expulsion would silence his nemesis,

02:47:04.360 he was mistaken.

02:47:06.080 All of a sudden we went to Paris and we got a great opportunity

02:47:10.840 to announce what the movement wants.

02:47:14.640 I have to say it. Oh my gosh.

02:47:16.100 Literally every single person they're interviewing

02:47:19.100 is part of the Islamic Republic. 1.00

02:47:24.860 they are literally interviewing the people that are now occupying us oppressing us and murdering 0.93

02:47:31.580 us in the name of allah and islam this is the this is 100 jihadi islamic like islamic regime 0.69

02:47:41.100 propaganda that by itself influenced what is going on inside you by late 1978 it appeared 0.58

02:47:50.860 that revolution was truly in the air so again like all of this damage and destruction you're seeing 0.99

02:47:58.620 this isn't from the shah's people this is the islamists right 0.79

02:48:05.740 this is the like 1978 version of the the pro-balestine pro-hamas crowds 0.75

02:48:12.380 that are causing civil unrest in your countries that's what they were doing in iran in the late

02:48:20.140 1970s. But even at this late stage it was far from clear that the world was

02:48:29.080 about to witness its first Islamic uprising. Certain groups in particular

02:48:36.720 rallied late and opportunistically and marginally to the cause of the revolution.

02:48:42.760 In the assumption that the religious scholars, Imam Khomeini in particular,

02:48:47.320 would not have the ability to govern.

02:48:50.660 That, for example, the leftists made the assumption

02:48:53.060 that we are the certified revolutionaries,

02:48:56.220 we're the people that know about revolution.

02:48:58.860 Let this old man motivate the masses

02:49:01.320 and then we will claim our birthright of ruling the country.

02:49:06.860 And even the clerics themselves,

02:49:08.960 many of whom had been imprisoned with other political opponents,

02:49:11.800 did not seem to believe that they were the powers behind the throne.

02:49:17.320 six so do you guys see so all of these islamic jihadi clerics and marxists and you know communists

02:49:27.480 and whatever who had been imprisoned are the ones that are now running iran and have turned it into 0.96

02:49:35.240 a seventh century islamic hellhole governed by sharia law because these people are all evil 0.98

02:49:41.240 demonic terrorists they're criminals there was a reason that they were in jail because they were 0.99

02:49:47.240 terrorists they were trying to destabilize the country it's not like the shah was just putting 0.97

02:49:52.600 random normal people in jail no he was literally putting threats to iran in jail one of them being

02:50:00.280 khamenei the current supreme dictator of the islamic republic and again i've said this before 0.94

02:50:04.920 i'll say it again the shah's only mistake was that he was not ruthless enough with these savages the 0.95

02:50:11.800 shah's only mistake is that he showed them too much mercy because do you think these savage 0.99

02:50:19.320 jihadis these these imams do you think they are showing iranian people mercy they have been 0.99

02:50:26.520 murdering us for the last 47 years in the name of allah in islam those imams okay those imams 1.00

02:50:35.400 have said that before you execute a woman you must rape her to make sure that she is not a 0.99

02:50:41.160 virgin because we don't want her soul going to heaven so in iran when a woman is before a woman 0.99

02:50:48.040 is executed she is raped to make sure she's not a virgin those are the kinds of people that the 0.95

02:50:53.560 shah had in jail in 1979.

02:51:02.200 most of my prison was spent with the people who became leaders of the islamic republic

02:51:07.080 i was in prison with rafsan joni montaziri oh my god see so so he's so they're literally about to

02:51:14.840 like they're literally now naming all of these like politicians of the islamic so every single

02:51:23.000 person that the Shah had in jail are the same evil corrupt individuals who ended up turning 0.81

02:51:29.720 Iran into a 7th century Islamic hellhole governed by Sharia law. 0.93

02:51:33.720 It's old man, you motivate the masses and then you know we will claim our birthright. 0.99

02:51:38.760 Oh my gosh, okay. This is wild.

02:51:41.480 And even the clerics themselves, many of whom had been imprisoned with other political opponents,

02:51:46.520 did not seem to believe that they were the powers behind the throne.

02:51:49.800 six months of my prison was spent with the people who became leaders of the islamic republic

02:51:56.840 i was in prison with drafts and johnny montaziri almost the whole who's who of the republic i was

02:52:07.640 oh my gosh they're even admitting it so do you see this guy in the middle

02:52:12.120 that's hominy that's literally hominy that is the current supreme dictator of the islamic republic 0.93

02:52:18.360 That's what I would say. This is the person that the Shah had in jail. 0.81

02:52:28.120 He is now responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Iranians. 0.78

02:52:35.100 The Shah was protecting the Iranian people by keeping evil demonic men like Khamenei in jail.

02:52:42.020 and yet people call you know people say oh the shah had political prisoners

02:52:49.460 these were the political prisoners guys these were the political prisoners

02:52:53.820 the shah was doing the world a favor by keeping these people locked up 0.86

02:53:00.580 because he knew how evil they were this man is worse than hitler guys

02:53:12.020 The Shah had him locked up.

02:53:15.920 The Shah was not a dictator, guys.

02:53:17.960 The Shah was a savior. 0.99

02:53:21.180 The Shah was protecting the Iranian nation from these evil demons. 0.99

02:53:25.840 And unfortunately, back in 1979, the Iranian people were not intelligent enough to understand that. 1.00

02:53:33.140 And now we are paying the price for the mistakes of the idiotic jihadis and communists and whoever. 0.99

02:53:42.020 from 1979 who overthrew the shah and we we are now paying for that mistake in blood we've been 1.00

02:53:48.180 paying for that mistake in blood for the last 47 years this this was the political prisoner of the 0.64

02:53:57.780 shah guys khamenei and i'm glad that at least at the very least this garbage documentary is admitting 0.57

02:54:07.140 admitting who was imprisoned.

02:54:13.300 I played volleyball with them on a regular daily basis. And if you had told them

02:54:19.460 or us that exactly a year and a half from us, you guys will be the rulers of Iran, 0.94

02:54:25.460 both of us, them and us, that I told you that you need to see a psychiatrist.

02:54:32.020 But the Shah was unable to lock up all of his opponents.

02:54:35.620 and on the streets of iran the protests grew ever more vociferous

02:54:41.860 no longer were the crowds yelling the shah must go now the screams of death to the shah

02:54:47.940 had become a common refrain from the streets of tehran sorry i just i just have to say something

02:54:54.180 in farsi okay i won't i won't i i will i will hold myself back but i just i really want to say

02:55:04.260 something to you know the nestle penja have to talk to other tools

02:55:14.580 the shah was devastated by the revolution and he was devastated by seeing pictures of himself

02:55:20.580 being burned the pictures of the empress being burned in the streets and when he

02:55:25.460 finally did get to see those when he saw the hatred of the people for the regime he was totally 0.63

02:55:31.380 devastated by now almost every section of society was united in opposition to the shah's reign

02:55:41.060 they were people from all classes of society i remember watching one demonstration in november

02:55:46.580 from a high rise so you could really kind of look down on these crowds and in some ways it was kind

02:55:53.060 of astonishing to see these huge groups of people emerging from the side streets into the main avenue

02:56:00.260 to join you know the the yeah chilo you make a really good point so guys never underestimate 0.98

02:56:08.820 socialists marxists or islamists you are literally seeing the unholy alliance of the red and the 0.84

02:56:14.260 black uniting to overthrow the shah and again remember the the political prisoners that the 0.92

02:56:22.100 shah had are literally terrorists who are now murdering iranians the name of allah and islam 0.98

02:56:27.940 this is why we love the shah because now now we understand 0.97

02:56:34.820 how intelligent he was how much ahead of his time he was and he was so smart and so educated

02:56:45.620 that he saw the threat and he understood the threat before the rest of us you know something

02:56:52.120 guys the shah actually had banned communism communism was banned in iran and the communists

02:57:00.120 accuse him of being a dictator for banning communism but guess what you know what the

02:57:04.920 czech republic just did recently the czech republic just banned communism because they

02:57:11.240 realized the threat that it was 50 years ago 60 years ago our shah already recognized

02:57:17.640 the threat of communism and banned it does anyone call czech republic a dictatorship

02:57:24.840 does anyone accuse the czech republic of being a dictatorship for banning communism

02:57:30.920 and if no then why are they accusing the shah of being a dictator for banning communism

02:57:36.440 just think about that because everything you've been told you know everything that people have

02:57:42.520 told you about the shah is a lie this entire documentary is 100 lies and propaganda 0.91

02:57:51.480 protests and they came in kind of packs so clearly from neighborhoods of the working class 0.53

02:57:57.720 districts of tehran suddenly you'd see this sea of black black charred veiled women or the sea of

02:58:05.560 working class men but also you had you know merchants from the bazaar shopkeepers and then

02:58:11.560 eventually the middle class you know began to join the westernized middle class began to believe the 0.96

02:58:18.040 revolution would be a very good thing time was running out for the shah

02:58:27.080 and as the new year it always gets really hard when i get to this part because it's like

02:58:33.080 you know what's going to happen and it's like watching a nightmare over and over again it's

02:58:38.200 like reliving that nightmare because you know how horrific things are gonna get um and what makes

02:58:46.600 it even more difficult when you're watching it in english is that not only do you have to deal

02:58:51.880 with the fact that it's gonna you know it's a nightmare but to add insult to injury is like

02:58:57.800 all of the lies and the propaganda and the smear campaign it just makes it even more difficult this

02:59:03.560 is why this is why i never watch documentaries in english but again i'm doing it to at least give

02:59:09.160 you guys some context and understanding of of the lies and and the propaganda of the communists

02:59:17.880 and the islamists here dawn is downfall seems inevitable

02:59:33.560 on january the 16th 1979 with the streets ablaze and his rule in tatters the shah fled the country 0.90

02:59:43.840 never to return at a stroke two and a half thousand years of push the day that the shah 0.91

02:59:51.800 left iran is the day that light and hope left the country that's the day that darkness and horror 0.90

02:59:59.620 and evil came that's when the country became occupied and it turned into a horrific nightmare

03:00:08.160 and and it's still going on and like this is why we're fighting like but it's taken us so long and

03:00:14.920 we're almost there but um it's it's been tough it's it's been really really um difficult

03:00:22.180 monarchy came to an end okay so i just was it that's a lie the monarchy did not come to an end

03:00:30.760 guys that is 100 false again this is why it's so frustrating the shah never abdicated guys he

03:00:37.900 never abdicated the monarchy never came to an end yes he left the country but he never abdicated

03:00:45.740 And in fact, when Shah and Shah Aryomir passed away, God bless his soul, his son, the current Shah in exile of Iran, he swore the succession oath in Cairo in 1980.

03:01:01.560 So the monarchy never ended.

03:01:04.260 The Shah never abdicated.

03:01:06.360 We do have a Shah in exile right now as well. 0.60

03:01:09.240 OK, however, this false narrative propaganda about the monarchy ending, the reason that the jihadis and the communists push this propaganda is because it's it's their way of trying to ensure that they will never be overthrown.

03:01:29.520 Right. It's their try. It's their way of trying to make sure that the Shah will never come back to Iran.

03:01:35.300 So, false narrative, fake news. The Shah never abdicated, the monarchy never ended.

03:01:59.300 The stage was set for the return of Grand Ayatollah Khomeini after 16 years in exile.

03:02:05.300 What is that?

03:02:23.300 I wish they had

03:02:31.300 What is that?

03:02:35.300 like to our presence there guys this entire documentary they've literally only interviewed

03:02:41.860 um people who support the islamic republic that's it like they've only supported people

03:02:47.060 who support the islamic republic and remember at the beginning of the interview they used the

03:02:51.540 wording protagonist right so according to this documentary these are all the good guys this is

03:02:59.860 this is how the um islamists twist the narrative right these are not the good guys these are the

03:03:05.700 enemy of the iran these are the people who want me and my people murdered yet al jazeera is calling 0.87

03:03:11.620 them the good guys like this is this is the level of gaslighting that we have to deal with not only

03:03:17.620 do they murder us but then in english language documentaries they pretend they're the good guys

03:03:23.140 it's it's wild it's wild to me

03:03:29.220 but they needn't have worried for khomeini's supporters waiting for him in iran was a day

03:03:35.540 they had long dreamed of but thought they would never see

03:03:44.820 i was one of the first people to go aboard the airplane when they landed

03:03:47.700 the imam was sitting alone there was no fear on his face like what an evil looking man to 1979

03:03:55.620 it was a duration of 18 years of struggle i even went to jail i felt i was died in jail

03:04:03.080 i was so happy to see the struggle had come into fruition

03:04:05.860 they're literally bragging about the fact that they brought this evil demon man to iran 1.00

03:04:15.640 and turned our country into a 7th century Islamic hellhole. 1.00

03:04:30.260 Like, this is why Al Jazeera is...

03:04:32.020 This is why I always warn about Al Jazeera. 1.00

03:04:35.300 Al Jazeera is a propaganda outlet for the Islamic Republic.

03:04:40.780 Al Jazeera is a propaganda outlet for Islamic terrorism. 0.98

03:05:09.140 have to be that after like 16 17 years in exile you come back to your country and they're like

03:05:15.280 what do you feel and he's like nothing i feel nothing literally a sociopath do you know why

03:05:22.300 he felt nothing because iran didn't mean anything to him this is this the guy's hell-bent on sharia

03:05:29.860 law and he basically just wanted to take over iran so that he could then use iran as a base to take 0.63

03:05:36.160 over other countries and he felt nothing coming back to his so-called country after 16 years 0.73

03:05:43.560 these are these are the enemies of the many thousands who have protested against the shah's 0.62

03:05:50.820 regime yeah you're right it wasn't his country it wasn't his country like the guy wasn't even 0.87

03:05:56.640 Iranian he's like his father was indian suddenly the possibilities seemed endless the great thing

03:06:04.340 was revolution it was not only happening in the streets it was also having people's minds let's

03:06:09.700 say between december 78 to december 79 where the shah's regime had fallen i mean there was absolute

03:06:19.060 freedom books were being translated and sold by the kilos people suddenly had access to marks they

03:06:25.140 had access to all these writers they couldn't read before you know because of the censorship

03:06:30.100 Khomeini quickly appointed Mehdi Bazagan, a pro-democracy activist, as interim prime

03:06:39.140 minister, briefly raising hopes that the new governments would reflect the wide range of

03:06:44.660 voices who had united against the Shah.

03:06:49.280 But for the old guard, who are perceived to be enemies of the revolution, retribution

03:06:53.920 was swift and brutal.

03:06:56.220 Many were imprisoned and killed, while others were forced into exile. 0.93

03:07:00.740 so you see what happens guys guys this this is a lesson for you all you non-iranians out there 0.92

03:07:08.260 just see did you see what the islamists did as soon as they got power they started murdering 0.99

03:07:15.300 and executing and jailing and torturing all of the leftists right because they're all evil 0.99

03:07:23.380 this is this is how jihad works pay attention pay attention because right now 0.93

03:07:28.500 in your countries in united states canada uk elsewhere all the woke lefty politicians are

03:07:37.060 welcoming in all the islamists with open arms you know multiculturalism and diversity assimilation 0.83

03:07:45.460 this is what happens when they take over guys pay attention 0.87

03:07:49.060 around 5 30 in the afternoon they entered into the campus and we came out somebody

03:08:00.460 arrested me a day with a machine gun on my my chest said don't move oh i thought okay so so

03:08:09.360 the guy who helped to overthrow the shop had a machine gun pointed at his chest by the islamists 0.96

03:08:17.820 you deserved it you deserved it i wish they'd done more 0.99

03:08:21.900 i i have zero i have zero sympathy for anyone who supported the islamic revolution of 1979 0.98

03:08:30.620 zero sympathy you guys are all traitors your hands are covered with the blood of the iranian people 0.99

03:08:40.940 you guys are responsible for the murder of our children 1.00

03:08:43.820 I said, this is the end of my life. I have one chance to save my skin. At one moment that he was trying to get another one, I fled. But I didn't dare to walk because I was shooting from every side. So somebody pushed me and said, Mr. Majid, this is the moment.

03:09:10.080 yeah the bella ghana 100 so these are the people that took your embassy 100 so they're they are

03:09:18.800 the same jihadis who took the american embassy hostage 100 for me to go out so i went out on the

03:09:28.880 sidewalk of the street a revolutionary group was attacking with machine guns and everything

03:09:36.640 They were shooting for the inside, so they didn't pay attention to me.

03:09:44.220 Within weeks of his return, Khomeini appointed Ayatollah Khal Khali

03:09:48.480 to establish a new revolutionary court to deliver Islamic rulings.

03:09:53.740 Khal Khali would become known as the Hanging Judge.

03:09:57.380 Did you catch that? Did you catch that?

03:10:01.120 So as soon as the Islamists say...

03:10:02.640 So, okay, remember, guys, these are the same people who accused the Shah of being a dictator and murdering thousands of people.

03:10:10.940 No proof, by the way, no proof, no proof of torture or execution or anything like that.

03:10:19.200 But as soon as they come into power, they literally start murdering thousands of Iranian people.

03:10:26.080 And the guy's literally known as the hanging judge.

03:10:29.160 why because he would just sign papers and he just signed thousands and thousands of papers and

03:10:34.440 thousands of iranians were hanged do you see what they do do you see how they lie every single

03:10:41.560 accusation against the shah is an initiative guilt on their parts and i'm not the one that's saying

03:10:50.360 it they are direction hundreds of former government officials and savak agents were executed we had

03:10:58.200 in the first weeks and continuing into the first months of the revolution

03:11:02.200 drumhead trials which lasted a few minutes often held in the middle of the

03:11:06.900 night in which ministers military officers members of the security

03:11:11.760 services of the old regime were tried sentenced to death and executed and we

03:11:16.440 every morning we woke up to see in the newspapers these gory pictures of body

03:11:24.480 So they're admitting that when the jihadis overthrew the Shah and took over the country, they're admitting that they saw gory pictures of murdered people in the paper.

03:11:37.840 and yet just one year before when they claimed the Shah was murdering innocent people or whatever

03:11:47.860 not one single picture not one single video footage evidence nothing do you see how they

03:11:56.480 lie do you see how they literally cannot back up a single claim they made against the Shah of Iran

03:12:03.900 how is it that they have pictures of themselves murdering innocent iranians and yet 0.51

03:12:12.520 um when it comes to the shah they have no proof it's just lies right and people believe them 0.60

03:12:20.900 because they are supposedly men of god right oh these these people are imams they're men of god

03:12:26.740 we should trust them they don't lie you know with bullet holes in them who had been assassinated

03:12:31.960 the previous night as schools were settled with many of the shah's extended circle

03:12:40.040 some felt that the revolution was losing its way the day i sort of changed perspective on

03:12:48.360 the revolution was this day this very instant when i took this photograph

03:12:54.920 these were the first four generals one of them

03:12:57.960 Nasiri, the head of the SAVAQ, Rahimi, in charge of Tehran,

03:13:09.480 Khosradar, Najib. They had been executed the night before, and they were executed after

03:13:18.120 a secret trial.

03:13:19.840 So do you see? Do you see? The only time that they're able to show

03:13:27.160 images of dead bodies is when it's their side that did it and yet they claim that the shah 0.84

03:13:34.200 murdered thousands of people but they can't show a single single image if if the shah and 0.79

03:13:41.160 savuk murdered and tortured and executed thousands of iranians where's the proof can you show me one 0.92

03:13:50.600 image this documentary was not able to show a single shred of evidence of the so-called

03:13:56.920 torture or execution by the shah

03:14:03.800 because the only torture and execution happened when the islamic people the the islamic regime

03:14:08.360 took over again this documentary accused the shah of torturing and murdering people

03:14:17.880 and yet they weren't able to provide a single shred of proof 1.00

03:14:21.640 But when the Muslims do it, right, this is a proof.

03:14:31.280 We are the nationalist element within the revolution. 1.00

03:14:34.500 We wanted open trials because first of all, they had, you know, we wanted them to have

03:14:39.220 a chance to defend themselves.

03:14:45.520 But many of the newly empowered clergy felt that these trials were fully justified.

03:14:50.760 It wasn't just Khal Khali. He was involved in the committees to fight drugs.

03:14:59.760 It was the revolutionary courts and the revolutionary council who wrote up the laws and followed them.

03:15:05.760 I can't believe they're literally interviewing the bad guys and they're claiming that they're the good guys.

03:15:12.760 This is wild. This is 100% propaganda mouthpiece for the Islamic Republic. 0.99

03:15:19.760 like they're not even iranian you're right only like they're not even iranian half of them are

03:15:23.600 from naja like they're they're they're from naja so those people who had killed and tortured people

03:15:31.280 youngsters and murdered on the streets should you keep them and give them breakfast and lunch

03:15:37.440 and then what would they do

03:15:41.760 grand ayatollah montazari was once destined to be ayatollah khomeini's successor as supreme leader

03:15:48.320 until the two fell out he claims that many people aren't iranians were arbitrary

03:15:56.080 anyway most of them were baseless no proper trials they were like puppet courts

03:16:01.680 i protested and i wrote an official okay so so to give non-iranians um a bit of context

03:16:09.040 right um this is like watching a documentary about how the holocaust was not that bad

03:16:17.120 and they're just interviewing a bunch of nazis and the nazis are trying to justify why the holocaust

03:16:22.080 was okay like this is the equivalent just to provide context right like for for me as an

03:16:27.840 iranian and for the you know hundreds of iranians who are watching um on x and on youtube and you

03:16:33.680 know those commenting on youtube chat that's what it feels like right now it feels like we are 0.51

03:16:39.200 literally watching um nazis try and um whitewash the holocaust and explain why it wasn't that bad

03:16:48.800 and why it was justified right so that's why it's very frustrating for us to watch this sort of 0.53

03:16:54.480 nonsense in english because um like these are all war criminals they're war criminals um

03:17:02.640 um yeah chelo 100 stress watching and cursing at our screens yeah that's exactly what it is 0.54

03:17:10.240 it's 100 what this is right now a letter to the imam they'd shut the doors of the prison

03:17:17.360 and they were just executing people

03:17:23.920 with the shah's former supporters out of the way and the military having declared itself neutral

03:17:29.360 the islamic republic of iran was formally founded on april the 1st 1979

03:17:35.340 all the perceived symbols of western decadence were destroyed

03:17:43.540 the reign of the shah was over forever

03:17:46.920 sorry someone said in the chat um yeah you know what if if you support the islamic republic you 0.69

03:17:56.980 are a nazi because the islamic republic is a continuation of modern day nazis so yeah

03:18:01.860 if you support the islamic republic you're a nazi get out of the chat but his ability to provoke 0.91

03:18:08.100 opposition remained undimmed after leaving iran he had sought refuge in several countries

03:18:15.460 and in october 1979 he arrived in the u.s for cancer treatment

03:18:20.420 The visits provoked uproar at home and set in motion a chain of events that continued

03:18:27.660 to reverberate three decades later.

03:18:32.840 On that morning, it started to rain, I clearly remember that.

03:18:38.360 And I looked out my window and there are these young, I would say kids, but you know, college

03:18:47.680 age 17 18 year old is mostly with posters of khomeini and some of the clubs in their hands

03:18:55.680 climbing over the gate okay guys um so i just want to share something from one of our uh iranian

03:19:05.040 viewers um i'm just gonna translate so you know i'm just sharing this for educational purposes

03:19:14.560 okay um because i've i've seen a lot of comments like this in the chat so i think it's only fair

03:19:21.200 that i translate this for non-iranians um so that you guys can get a good understanding of um how

03:19:31.040 iranians feel about khomeini so again this is for educational purposes only so um this account uh

03:19:39.120 called has said um which means i on your spirit

03:19:47.120 homey name that's probably one of the more pg-13

03:19:51.440 um descriptions of how iranians feel about khomeini

03:19:55.840 and um the islamic republic so there you go

03:20:01.280 and uh we also have a oh what's wrong one oh my gosh guys the

03:20:06.560 the chat came up too fast. This is what I want to share. We have a Javid Shah, guys. So for our

03:20:11.480 non-Iranian followers, Javid Shah means long live the king. And that's something that we say a lot

03:20:19.260 because we support the last Shah of Iran, we support the current Shah of Iran, and we will

03:20:26.440 continue to support the Shah of Iran in exile because he is working to free the country. So

03:20:32.940 So 100% Javid Shah, all right.

03:20:37.120 In droves. 0.99

03:20:38.840 And the first thing that I realized

03:20:40.620 is that they started to head toward my office,

03:20:43.080 which is only maybe 50 yards away. 0.99

03:20:50.600 Our first aim was to bring the Shah back from America. 0.93

03:20:55.260 But of course, we knew it was unlikely to happen. 0.95

03:20:59.160 But all protests are like that.

03:21:01.260 we thought it would last three to five days

03:21:04.300 but instead a hostage crisis unfolded that was to endure for 444 days 0.98

03:21:15.820 oh guys by the way look look look what look what the islamists did right so

03:21:20.780 um this documentary also doesn't mention the fact that jimmy carter

03:21:25.420 um betrayed the shah and jimmy carter supported the islamists but um yeah there you go jimmy

03:21:32.860 carter thought that he could control khomeini and so he backed khomeini he backed the islamists

03:21:39.180 and then the islamic terrorists took a whole bunch of americans hostage

03:21:46.140 and now 50 years later your western politicians are trying to appease islamists by going into

03:21:51.580 their mosques you know whatever whatever i don't know you know sometimes um learning about history

03:21:58.220 is important because um a lot of people have forgotten about the american hostage crisis

03:22:06.620 by the time it was over u.s president jimmy carter had been voted out of office

03:22:12.780 oh my gosh guys look i'm like a fortune teller right i i just mentioned carter and then the

03:22:17.740 the documentary mentioned carter interesting oh yeah carter was terrible carter was anti-semitic 0.61

03:22:25.040 carter was just an idiot all around and he messed up a lot of things during um his his time as 0.86

03:22:34.720 president um richard nixon we love right like richard nixon was a great friend of the shah 1.00

03:22:41.420 richard nixon actually went to the shah's funeral um when the shah passed away from leukemia

03:22:47.760 Ruha Shad. We love Richard Dixon. But Jimmy Carter, we hate him. I hope he's rotting in hell.

03:22:55.440 The Islamic Republic of Iran had been firmly established 1.00

03:23:00.160 and the two nations previously so close would become the staunchest of enemies. 0.76

03:23:09.360 Yeah they don't mention why. See they don't mention why they became enemies. They became

03:23:14.400 enemies because the islamic republic is waging a jihad against the west right iran iran which

03:23:23.280 is the flag behind me iran and america were strong allies but it's the islamic republic 0.93

03:23:30.000 you know that islamic jihadi ideology the one that yells death to america calls america the 0.91

03:23:36.240 great satan that's the one that took americans hostage the same way that the islamic republic 0.93

03:23:42.320 took iranians hostage took our country hostage in 1979 they took americans hostage it's what they 0.75

03:23:50.160 do it's how jihad works it's how terrorism works and it's wild that al jazeera just casually puts

03:23:58.240 out there that these two countries became enemies but doesn't doesn't explain why right it's almost

03:24:06.240 as if they're implying that america is the reason that these countries became enemies

03:24:11.600 you see how um islamic propaganda works like do you see how takiyah works do you see how al jazeera

03:24:19.680 has been poisoning the minds of people in western countries with with propaganda like this 0.53

03:24:33.280 wow oh my gosh so that's it so wow finally we're done this nightmare of a documentary

03:24:41.600 And, again, like, they literally end it with Iran and, you know, Iran and America are now enemies.

03:24:50.080 But they don't say why.

03:24:51.500 They don't say that it was the Islamic Republic that waged war against the United States.

03:24:59.260 No mention of that.

03:25:01.080 Okay, this one is a very, very difficult one to watch.

03:25:04.580 So, wow, this was a 43-minute documentary, guys.

03:25:09.360 and it took me three and a half hours to get through it um but i think i provided a lot of

03:25:16.320 context i also appreciate all the iranians in the live chat who provided their input and and context

03:25:23.600 as well um you know huge shout out to uh the members for their feedback and of course to

03:25:30.400 everyone uh you know who supported the channel with a starred message huge shout out to you

03:25:35.360 appreciate that i hope that at the very least um the context that i provided to you in this trash

03:25:46.080 documentary can start can give you a little bit of understanding as to why there is so much

03:25:55.120 um fake news and propaganda about what happened in 1979 i hope it can give you a little bit of

03:26:02.960 context into why you constantly hear the the false narrative of the shah was a dictator or you know

03:26:10.960 most definitely you know all like the sort of the talking points that the islamists the communists

03:26:16.480 just push out there which we just went through and you know decimated um so so for all the

03:26:24.160 iranians in the chat um what would you rate this documentary out of 10. i mean the one from last

03:26:32.000 night we gave a zero um the one from last night we gave a zero i think this one deserves less than

03:26:39.520 zero because this is literally islamic republic propaganda i mean i guess i like i guess i would

03:26:48.000 say minus 10 like a minus 10.

03:26:57.600 i don't know i mean initially initially i would say zero was the lowest but the problem is that

03:27:05.280 the one from last night we rated as a zero right yesterday's documentary which was just like ai

03:27:12.480 generated nonsense okay okay guys guys i think i think chilo came up with the perfect rating okay

03:27:25.040 what do you think of this rating oh wait sorry guys what do you think of this rating

03:27:34.240 iranians what do you think of that rating that chilo put up there i i i played it i i broadcast

03:27:40.080 it up there um i mean i

03:27:49.280 that that's a pretty good rating i think that's i think that's fitting

03:27:58.800 yeah should we should we go with that rating guys because i think that's also like um

03:28:06.800 a good fu to you know al jazeera and the islamic republic i think that also might send a message

03:28:13.680 to them that you know we are well aware of um the fact that this is islamic jihadi propaganda

03:28:21.600 so you know what i what do you guys think should we go should i put that yeah should that be the

03:28:28.960 rating an fu out of 10. okay um oh i have a comment from rod so rod al gore started a cable channel

03:28:41.840 after losing the 2000 presidential election they sold to 400 million yep 100 right um you

03:28:48.160 know the reality is that um al jazeera is funded by qatar right and qataris have endless amount of

03:28:55.520 money um and so they are willing to buy out anyone uh you know they've also managed to buy out

03:29:04.960 tucker carlson and candace owens to a degree like i don't want to get into too much that stuff but um

03:29:11.600 but yeah so okay so guys i think i think we're gonna go with with cello's rating here

03:29:17.680 so i i think that's it like we're gonna have to go with this because zero should be the lowest

03:29:24.000 but but this documentary was even worse than zero so guys um this is where we are at right now okay

03:29:30.880 so this is the third documentary we've watched about the 1979 islamic revolution

03:29:36.720 the highest rating so far is a three out of ten um so we're gonna watch another one tomorrow night

03:29:46.000 um i am taking suggestions from members so for um the members in the chat or you know to the

03:29:54.820 members who watch this afterwards please make sure that you go to the membership tab on my
