00:00:00.000 This is coordination through the

00:00:15.640 Thank you.

00:00:45.640 Thank you.

00:01:15.640 Thank you.

00:01:45.640 We'll be right back.

00:02:15.640 We'll be right back.

00:02:45.640 Thank you.

00:03:15.640 Thank you.

00:03:45.640 Thank you.

00:04:15.640 We'll be right back.

00:04:46.040 well hi everyone um that was that was weird that was bizarre um

00:04:54.120 very interesting to see my live stream be mass recorded um especially since this video is

00:05:03.720 publicly available on youtube let me just show you guys i mean i showed this at the beginning

00:05:09.320 of my live stream right um so here we go remove uh so the the documentary that we are watching

00:05:22.360 right now um it's called decadence and downfall it is literally available on youtube like you can

00:05:29.720 watch it for free right so um i don't understand where this copyright issue comes in from that's

00:05:36.440 obviously the bots trying to um trying to mass report the channel because there is something

00:05:44.920 called fair use and commentary and the whole purpose of this live stream is not to just

00:05:51.880 broadcast the documentary and that's it the purpose of the live stream is to comment on

00:05:59.400 the documentary in order to provide um you especially non-iranians with um the iranian

00:06:06.840 perspective and to provide additional context so um i mean if i was just live streaming this

00:06:14.840 on its own that's one thing but um very very sneaky use uh the last time that that these people

00:06:21.880 took down my live stream was a couple of weeks ago and they actually mass reported me for streaming

00:06:29.000 as a minor under 13 um so yeah i was actually i was speaking about um like i was i was showing

00:06:36.840 um videos of hamas murdering palestinians and then my live stream was taken down because apparently

00:06:44.680 i was live streaming as a minor under 13. so these these bots um are definitely working hard i guess

00:06:51.720 i mean i i'm not saying anything controversial the the documentary is available itself for free

00:06:57.480 on youtube you can go watch it this is the the youtube link right here um so there you go i

00:07:04.600 don't know why these people feel so threatened by the fact that i'm just sharing truth about iran

00:07:11.880 and sharing the iranian perspective on what happened leading up to 1979 but uh thank you

00:07:19.880 you everyone for joining welcome back uh we are going to continue we'll continue on and let's see

00:07:27.820 what happens uh so so that live stream was taken down um i've i've appealed it so i'm gonna have

00:07:35.620 to wait and see what the what the youtube appeal says but i'm definitely gonna fight that uh because

00:07:41.380 i think it's really important for iranians to have an opportunity to comment and criticize

00:07:49.080 documentaries and videos about iran right it's important for us to get our voice out there and

00:07:56.200 again like we were it was about it was over an hour's worth of live stream and yet it was only

00:08:03.560 16 minutes we were only about 16 minutes into the video so it's it's not like a copyright thing

00:08:09.240 right there you go so so we're going to continue on um thank you everyone for joining please you

00:08:15.000 know like and they reported me for third-party audio tools what does that even mean like that

00:08:23.240 that that that means nothing right so again like so it's totally a bogus claim right it's a

00:08:28.680 completely bogus claim um but they're just trying everything i guess is they're just trying

00:08:35.160 everything they can to to take down um my live stream strange i mean i i'm just i'm just a small

00:08:43.880 channel i only have like what 15 000 subscribers and and yet this is how much of a threat i am

00:08:49.880 where i'm just trying to share information about the history of my own country i hope i hope this

00:08:56.280 um at least gives uh you um you know gives non-iranians a better understanding of how much

00:09:02.680 they have tried to gaslight us and silence our voices these last 47 years right where even the

00:09:08.920 fact that i am talking about a publicly available documentary about uh iran um that in and of itself

00:09:17.800 is threatening enough to them that they try to shut down the channel and the live stream they

00:09:23.080 don't like that they don't like that so but we will we will keep we will keep going we will

00:09:28.040 continue on all right so let's see where we were and we're going to continue with this publicly

00:09:35.400 publicly available documentary which is available on youtube to watch for free

00:09:50.920 so i think you know what what's interesting is at the at the moment where my live stream went down

00:09:55.880 it was shahad shah ariyomer who was speaking so his voice is not considered third party

00:10:01.400 copyright content so again it's just it's utter nonsense right what they're trying to do here

00:10:19.640 attention is focused once again on the middle east where events in iran have taken a dramatic

00:10:24.040 double twist forced to free his palace in tehran the shah and his queen arrive in rome after an

00:10:29.720 an alleged attempt by the imperial guard to arrest Dr. Mossadegh and a refusal by the

00:10:34.480 shah to dissolve parliament at Mossadegh's request.

00:10:42.240 I had not abandoned hope.

00:10:45.560 My heart was light.

00:10:49.480 We took only two days before the people called me back.

00:10:55.880 But finally, Musadik is the coup d'etat in the English American language,

00:10:59.280 and I don't know if you can see it.

00:11:02.160 Okay, so that makes no sense.

00:11:05.280 So this is the coup d'etat, right?

00:11:07.460 So it's literally the communists and the propagandists who pushed this coup d'etat narrative,

00:11:14.860 but it was not a coup d'etat.

00:11:19.400 Musadik tried to suspend the parliament and suspend the constitution.

00:11:24.560 uh the americans and the british um they provided the shah with finances because he had been pretty

00:11:31.680 much shut out shut out of everything so they provided him with the finances he needed to go

00:11:35.840 in and do what needed to be done but but it's not like there were any american i mean not to my

00:11:41.600 knowledge maybe maybe i'm wrong but i i don't think there was any american boots on the ground

00:11:46.480 it's not like the u.s army invaded right this was all done uh it was all done by iranian people

00:11:54.080 for iranian people because even the iranian people didn't want most they wanted the shah back

00:12:01.040 so to claim that this was some sort of american coup d'etat and now they have like images of

00:12:06.320 tanks here as if you know they're trying to assume or they're trying to imply that like

00:12:11.120 these were americans again that's false right but but that coup d'etat narrative comes from

00:12:17.120 the communists who are trying to smear the shah um amir like subscribe uh and job each

00:12:24.400 thank you amir yes all right let's continue

00:12:36.160 i also find it i'll guys i also find it really interesting that the shah left the country for

00:12:41.040 for two days right he left the country for two days because he was advised to leave due to

00:12:46.280 multiple assassination attempts okay so he left so that he wouldn't be assassinated by the

00:12:52.660 communists and yet all of a sudden when he returned that was a coup d'etat right like

00:12:59.000 like they're trying to claim that because Mossadegh um was there for two days and he was trying to

00:13:05.740 shut down the parliament all of a sudden he had legitimacy right so he was never um he was never

00:13:12.660 democratically elected Mossad was appointed by the Shah just like every single prime minister

00:13:19.480 before Mossad just like every single prime minister after Mossad right so again Iran was

00:13:26.840 constitutional monarchy Mossad was not the first and only prime minister there were prime ministers

00:13:31.920 before him and after him um but the shah had to leave because his life was in legitimate danger

00:13:39.360 because mossad kept on trying to assassinate him right because in order for mossad to be able to

00:13:45.440 consolidate power suspend the parliament and uh take control of the iranian army he had to have

00:13:53.680 the shah deposed right so he was trying to assassinate the shah so that he could replace

00:13:57.920 the Shah become the you know the ruler I guess the new Shah and then he wanted to hand the country

00:14:04.560 over to the Soviets because he was funded by the Soviets that's what's missing from from this

00:14:10.160 narrative about Mossaddiq right now they're not mentioning the Soviet money and the Soviet funding

00:14:16.880 that enabled Mossaddiq to be able to do what he did until 53 my life was a succession of

00:14:26.320 of pain and suffering and humiliation.

00:14:45.080 So he comes back in 1953 knowing very well

00:14:48.520 that this was a foreign engineered coup d'etat.

00:14:54.560 Wow.

00:14:56.320 so this person is definitely pushing the islamist communist propaganda right like he's

00:15:06.640 he's calling it a coup like like this narrative if someone tried to say this today like in farsi

00:15:14.300 um we would not take him seriously but this is how this is how they get away with it in english

00:15:20.960 right um these people just promote this false narrative about this coup d'etat so so they're

00:15:26.880 just going to continue talking about coup d'etat but they're never going to actually have anything

00:15:31.680 to to back it up here the shah was gone for two days basically in order to protect his life

00:15:37.840 because most that was trying to assassinate him and then when it was safe he returned

00:15:42.320 which makes sense to me but yet somehow somehow the shah returning is the coup d'etat however

00:15:51.360 for mustadik to try and suspend parliament and create a constitutional crisis that's not the

00:15:58.560 coup d'etat right mustadik trying to take over the government's not the coup d'etat

00:16:03.280 it's the shah protecting iran right do you see how like so so the people that are talking about

00:16:10.240 what happened in 1953 are the ones who lost and they're bitter about it so they are smearing the

00:16:15.840 shah right because the vast majority of iranians are thankful that the shah protected the country

00:16:21.920 and did not allow most to suspend parliament and the constitution in his name um knowing very well

00:16:30.800 that you know he is coming into a country that essentially does not want him so again that's

00:16:37.680 literally another lie the country wanted him that's why he came back the country did not want

00:16:42.560 mustatik wow this guy is like pure pure propaganda like pure communist propaganda here

00:16:52.240 so everything that guy is saying is a hundred percent hundred percent lies what does he have

00:16:57.520 to do as a politician there are two ways one way would be trying again to be the people's monarch

00:17:03.840 within, again, a context that was still in flux.

00:17:06.720 It was a lot of radicalism, a lot of disenchantment, right?

00:17:10.240 Or ruling with a strong hand.

00:17:13.540 And the Shah, with increasing funds through the oil revenues,

00:17:17.520 with increasing confidence in his alliance with the United States,

00:17:21.520 he established a militarized security state,

00:17:25.140 trying to find out how I can keep myself in office as a monarch.

00:17:28.620 i don't know what um elende is i don't know what that means major sorry

00:17:58.620 I chair the world, and then I take it to my body.

00:18:02.900 And then I say

00:18:05.360 oh,

00:18:05.460 and I bring,

00:18:07.620 this one.

00:18:10.140 We relate

00:18:13.880 we spoke with a bunch of men and brought some Vatican

00:18:19.460 and said that,

00:18:21.260 thekuners arrested a complimentary

00:18:22.720 friend of the l parcel

00:18:24.420 and appointed them

00:18:25.700 that we build houses in front of us.

00:18:28.700 We can use a plastic piece in the shape of 4.

00:18:33.700 Mr. Alam was very efficient.

00:18:35.700 I think it was his character to get it done.

00:18:39.700 He found Salvador Allende.

00:18:42.700 Okay, the Marxist in Chile.

00:18:43.700 Yeah, okay.

00:18:44.700 Yeah, there you go.

00:18:46.700 Okay, now I get it.

00:18:47.700 Now that makes sense.

00:18:48.700 Okay.

00:18:49.700 The simplest way to do it, to go to a professional, to do the tents, to do the food, to do the catering, the servants.

00:19:10.140 Maxime, at this time, was considered in one of the best tables.

00:19:14.400 The director, Mr. Vaudable, gave him to know Maxime in the whole world.

00:19:21.200 We were in Boston, because Maxime had made an opera gala in Boston.

00:19:28.200 We dining with Mr. Vaudable, and he said,

00:19:31.600 I don't say anything yet, but you are going to live a great moment.

00:19:35.200 My first reaction was a great inquietude and enthusiasm

00:19:40.200 to bring a small pier to this world event.

00:20:06.200 So he's saying basically like when the Shah signed that deal

00:20:09.480 with Maxim and then the other one, like these foreign restaurants, that's when people around

00:20:14.440 the world started to pay attention and started to notice about the 2,500 year anniversary

00:20:21.980 celebration that the Shah was going to hold. And then I guess that's where the hype about it

00:20:26.560 happened. So again, the Shah was very forward thinking. He knew exactly what he was doing

00:20:30.900 with the 1971 celebration. He was basically putting Iran on the map, right? So he did that

00:20:37.740 to showcase iran um to to show iran to the world and every single penny that he invested in that

00:20:46.640 2500 year celebration was returned uh in dividends like like exponentially right because that's what

00:20:55.200 encouraged non-iranians to visit iran to go to iran businesses to invest right like it was

00:21:00.820 It was the place to be. Again, there's a reason it's called the biggest and best party in history, because it's literally the biggest and best party that was ever held. And I'm kind of glad that he did that. I'm actually very glad he did that, because he not only put Iran on the map, he was also celebrating and honoring 2500 years of Persian heritage and history, right?

00:21:29.540 Most countries are not even 1,000 years old, right?

00:21:35.080 So imagine celebrating the anniversary of a country that's 2,500 years old.

00:21:40.220 Of course, it's going to be a huge, big gala.

00:21:42.300 Why not?

00:21:59.540 These tents are destined to camp, which will be dressed in Persepolis for the celebration

00:22:13.500 of the 2500th anniversary of the founding of the Perse Empire by Cyrus le Grand.

00:22:20.540 Cyrus the Great has this sort of religion.

00:22:24.540 That's Cyrus the Great, right? The founder of the Persian Empire.

00:22:28.960 It was actually Cyrus the Great Day two days ago.

00:22:32.460 Just political value. He's ostensibly in the Koran. He's definitely in the Bible.

00:22:37.100 The Greeks love him. The Persians clearly value...

00:22:40.840 Wait, wait. Let me go back.

00:22:42.160 So now this guy's talking about the importance of Cyrus the Great,

00:22:46.660 not just to Iranians, but to many other people.

00:22:49.020 For the celebration of the 2,500th anniversary of the founding of the Perse Empire by Cyrus

00:22:56.140 the Grand.

00:22:58.140 Cyrus the Great has this sort of religious political value.

00:23:03.980 He's ostensibly in the Koran, he's definitely in the Bible, the Greeks love him, the Persians

00:23:09.300 clearly valued him a lot, I mean he's one of the few that has a tomb, it's the one tomb

00:23:13.580 that nobody's demolished at any time.

00:23:15.860 a figure that all political factions in a way also can buy into. He's a humanist, he's an

00:23:21.700 enlightenment leader, he emancipated, he liberated the Jews, he likes minorities, he treated people

00:23:27.780 with dignity and Cyrus becomes this blank slate onto which the Shah projects his own image so that

00:23:34.500 he may be reflected in his glory. He was the first to introduce justice, he was the first man who

00:23:41.380 who introduced the Bill of Rights.

00:23:44.220 We have the scroll.

00:23:46.380 Well, you have the real scroll in your museum.

00:23:48.820 You take it from us.

00:24:05.180 So this guy is like just one of those.

00:24:07.180 Like, so this guy is one of those university students

00:24:10.860 helped to overthrow the shah and turn iran into a 1979 islamic hellhole governed by sharia law

00:24:17.900 um so i mean he wanted that and yet he's living in the comfort of a western country right so 0.96

00:24:23.980 that's how hypocritical um these people are they have no shame um he's still slandering the shah 0.74

00:24:31.580 and the reason he's doing so is because he still needs to justify what he did right because there 0.95

00:24:37.900 There is no excuse for what happened in 1979.

00:24:40.620 It was all based on lies and slander.

00:24:43.120 And everything coming out of this guy's mouth is a lie.

00:24:45.840 Remember, he said that there were no elections in Iran prior to 1979.

00:24:53.480 And yet we've already established that there were numerous prime ministers in the country, right?

00:24:59.880 And that there were parliamentarians and politicians.

00:25:03.240 And how did they get there?

00:25:04.620 Through elections. 0.95

00:25:05.740 So this guy is a walking lie. Don't trust anything he says about the Shah or Sabak or anything like that. 0.87

00:25:12.760 And you won't have any proof to back it up. They never do.

00:25:35.740 oh no so you're basically an islamist who was plotting to overthrow the shah so

00:25:47.980 the stabak guys by the way stabak is basically um like cia and fbi right like every country

00:25:54.780 has police that is tasked with um safeguarding the national security interests of the country

00:26:02.380 stavok is no different from that stavok was actually inspired by the cia okay but um these

00:26:07.900 people who were literally working to destabilize the country they're complaining about stavok why

00:26:13.260 because stavok was on to them stavok was on to them but the worst story you can come up with

00:26:18.940 is savok raided my house and they found nothing so they left me right so again like these people

00:26:24.380 will trash the shaw they will trash stavok did i get another notification here what's going on

00:26:32.380 okay what's going on here

00:26:41.900 oh my gosh guys okay okay so look at this look at this so i so my previous live stream was removed

00:26:51.440 right um for like copyright infringement or whatever i appealed it and i just got a notification

00:26:59.740 um saying that claim resolved your dispute was successful so my previous live stream is back up

00:27:08.040 so great success guys um they mass reported my live stream to try and remove it and maybe to

00:27:15.960 remove my channel but thankfully i appealed it so again that just goes to show how much they're

00:27:21.100 trying to silence my voice and also prevent you guys from learning the truth right because um

00:27:27.180 there's nothing wrong with showing publicly available documentaries on youtube and commenting

00:27:33.580 on it so yeah i just um i just got the notification your dispute was successful

00:27:41.460 so there you go all right so now we can carry on but anyway so this guy's lying right like he's

00:27:47.860 just gonna lie about stabak he's not gonna have anything to to back it up

00:27:57.180 CRC, I mean, what kind of system is it?

00:28:02.940 Well, yeah, if you're going to be a communist who's plotting to overthrow the Shah 0.87

00:28:07.340 and turn the country into, like, an Islamic hellhole,

00:28:12.520 of course it's the Shah's responsibility to try and stop you from doing that, right?

00:28:17.500 That's the thing, like, these people never actually admit that they're communists,

00:28:21.600 but the way they talk, you can tell, like, these were the communists.

00:28:27.180 Okay, so it's interesting that they don't actually like talk about this part, but let me read it for you.

00:28:49.620 okay so these are the sweeping reforms that the shah did in 1963 as part of the white revolution

00:29:04.500 to modernize iran okay so the sweeping reforms include the rights for women like you know if

00:29:11.780 he basically gave women the right to vote women in iran had the right to vote in 1963 before

00:29:16.900 women in switzerland sweden portugal and other places and also the redistribution of land to

00:29:23.620 peasant farmers so he he took land that belonged to um rich feudal lords and clergy and he gave it

00:29:33.460 to the peasants and the farmers and so the rich feudal lords and the clergy did not like that

00:29:41.540 so these are the sweeping reforms look up white revolution of iran um you'll find it all there

00:29:48.500 so raptor thank you thank you for the support and i hope you're uh enjoying tonight's live

00:29:55.460 stream this is part two of the live stream because part one was taken down by bots they

00:30:00.260 mass reported me for a so-called copyright violation which i then appealed it was resolved

00:30:06.260 but this is part two of the live stream so welcome and thank you for the support raptor

00:30:12.420 okay so so this is this is like um these these wide sweeping reforms were literally meant to

00:30:18.340 help iranian people and modernize iran and this is what was upsetting the communists and the clergy

00:30:25.700 right they didn't like this they didn't like the fact that iran was modernizing

00:30:29.540 they were they were losing their grip over the country

00:30:36.260 I think the problem of the white revolution was in many ways a top-down process that was

00:30:54.740 primarily, I think, geared towards positioning the Shah as that benevolent monarch who gives

00:31:02.180 out charity almost to irani so the fact that the shah gave women the right to vote without women

00:31:11.860 having to fight for it and complain about it that was a problem do you see do you see like how they

00:31:18.740 try to spin the narrative here the shah knew what was good for the country okay and people loved him

00:31:24.900 for it they loved him for it and yet these people are trying to spin it as if um him

00:31:32.260 modernizing iran and him uh you know improving human rights in iran was was like a bad thing

00:31:40.340 right like they're trying to smear everything that he did like what did this guy want did

00:31:46.740 did he want iranian women to go out in the streets and protest before they got the right to vote

00:31:52.100 the shah was intelligent enough and smart enough to recognize that you know if we want to have a

00:31:56.820 modern functioning society men and women must be equal so i'm going to give them the right to vote

00:32:02.660 because that's that's what modern secular normal countries do and yet that's apparently a problem

00:32:09.220 for for this guy so it was in many ways an act of propaganda more than anything else

00:32:14.980 so this guy just called the white revolution of iran an act of propaganda which is complete

00:32:24.200 and utter nonsense right like this is just they're just like bashing the shah right now here for for

00:32:30.340 no reason whatsoever for no reason whatsoever the shah gave women the right to vote apparently

00:32:34.940 that's an act of propaganda right the shah took land away from from feudal lords the shah got

00:32:41.040 rid of serpdom, the Shah gave land to poor people, that was an act of propaganda, according

00:32:47.780 to these people.

00:32:51.380 If you're unhappy that your country is saying goodbye to a feudalistic system, if you're

00:33:01.000 unhappy that half of the population of your country, the women, are emancipated, well,

00:33:06.840 this I cannot help.

00:33:09.840 yeah like he so even even back then right like the people were complaining about the white

00:33:17.120 revolution and the shah like god bless his soul he answered perfectly he said if you're upset by the

00:33:23.360 fact that um half of the population now you know if you're upset the fact by women are no longer

00:33:32.320 second-class citizens that's your problem right listen to what he said so like these complaints

00:33:38.080 you're hearing now they started back then and they've just evolved over time so it was

00:33:43.920 in many ways an act of propaganda more than anything else

00:33:56.480 if you're unhappy that your country is saying goodbye to a feudalistic system if you're unhappy

00:34:02.880 that half of the population of your country the women are emancipated well this i cannot help

00:34:10.080 right so so he's saying if you're if you're pissed off by the fact that women are now

00:34:15.200 emancipated women have the right to vote i can't help you with that right so he's literally

00:34:20.880 calling out the people who were complaining

00:34:31.880 These were the people who were upset.

00:34:38.880 Khomeini was a pure cleric.

00:34:40.880 His grandfather, his father, all of them were esteemed in Islamic theology.

00:34:44.880 And this whole idea that Iran was not primarily an Islamic country was for him utterly unacceptable.

00:34:52.880 right so so the islamic shia clerics did not like the fact that the shah was giving women

00:35:00.860 the right to vote and that women were treated equally to men in iran and women um could dress

00:35:08.440 however they wanted to dress right like again so these are images and videos of iran prior to the

00:35:13.360 1979 islamic revolution part of the reason that the islamic revolution happened is because of the

00:35:19.200 white revolution it's because the shah gave women the right to vote and the

00:35:23.360 islamic clergy did not like that

00:35:33.520 right so so khomeini sends a letter to the first of all i don't even know who he thinks he is like

00:35:38.080 the audacity the audacity for um an islamic shia cleric to just assume that he can tell people

00:35:46.800 how to live their lives right just the audacity first of all but second of all he writes a letter

00:35:51.760 to the shah and he says don't give women the right to vote that's against islam so this gives you a

00:35:57.200 sense of of the ideology of these savages who unfortunately ended up taking over iran um and

00:36:05.520 turning it into a seventh century islamic hellhole governed by sharia law right like they're not

00:36:10.080 mincing words they're showing you exactly who they are and what they believe and according to them

00:36:16.800 um women having the right to vote is against islam so so this is the propaganda okay so

00:36:35.360 instead of instead of responding to um the the the letter from khomeini where khomeini is basically

00:36:43.280 uh demanding that the shah um remove women's rights because because you know it's against islam

00:36:51.200 um the shah instead sends his you know commandos whatever to uh where khomeini was in in the

00:36:58.080 seminary in home and then they break all the windows and whatever um and then this guy says

00:37:04.080 maybe one or two people were murdered we don't know well if someone if someone was actually

00:37:08.560 murdered wouldn't you have uh documentation wouldn't you have evidence wouldn't you have a

00:37:13.200 name wouldn't you have some sort of death certificate right do you see how they um create

00:37:18.480 propaganda they kind of like just throw it out there casually without no evidence to back it up

00:37:26.480 okay i guarantee you if someone had actually been murdered in that you know whatever that happened

00:37:32.960 there would be a name but the fact that he's casually slipping it in there again this is

00:37:36.800 This is the propaganda that they've been pushing for a very long time.

00:38:06.800 I had to send one of those stubborn, obscurantists, clergymen, abroad.

00:38:19.040 He had to travel.

00:38:20.080 i don't know anyone i don't know how anyone can look at this guy's face and think he's a good guy

00:38:38.820 or that what he did was good in any way like this man uh not even a man like like this this thing

00:38:46.960 is is more evil than satan um yeah like the the shah was literally protecting iran from demons

00:38:57.060 unfortunately the iranian people the silent majority did not wake up until it was too late

00:39:03.900 and the demons had already taken control of iran in 1979

00:39:16.960 So that's complete and utter nonsense.

00:39:36.940 The Shah was actually building 4,000 schools a year.

00:39:40.560 And he actually had employed, he had created and employed something called like the Peace

00:39:44.520 army um and the peace army was tasked with going into all these rural villages to not just build

00:39:49.800 schools but to educate people um and to you know take doctors and nurses there as well so again

00:39:56.120 like these are all lies being spouted by by khomeini again like an islamic shia cleric who is 0.96

00:40:04.440 one of the most evil people in the history of humanity and all he does is lie so you can see 0.96

00:40:11.080 here what he's trying to put out there is he's trying to um tell people that everything is

00:40:17.160 really bad i'm not saying iran was 100 modern at the time absolutely not um the panady dynasty

00:40:23.320 inherited um an underdeveloped third world country from the previous dynasty and so of course it's

00:40:29.800 going to take time to build iran up right it's not something that happens overnight it's like

00:40:35.560 a decades-long project the shah was working towards that however because the shah was

00:40:42.760 modernizing iran khomeini didn't like that he didn't like the fact that women were being given

00:40:48.120 the right to vote so he started this campaign of lies right so the things he's talking about

00:40:54.200 now have actually nothing to do with why he wanted to take over iran he wanted to take over iran to

00:41:00.840 use it as like a base for his islamic caliphate but he knew that if he wanted to do that he would

00:41:06.200 have to fool the people into thinking that the shah was bad and he was good so he started sending

00:41:11.800 out all of these you know letters and cassette tapes and whatever all of it filled with lies

00:41:17.560 and nonsense and of course back then people did not have internet uh they don't they did not have

00:41:22.520 access to computers or cell phones so they could not independently fact check they just assumed

00:41:28.840 that everything that this you know quote-unquote man of god was saying

00:41:32.760 would be the truth they never thought in a million years that he would actually be a liar

00:41:46.680 that again a full-on lie the shah actually instituted um a national uh a national food

00:41:53.000 program where basically uh in the in all of the public schools um students would also be fed

00:42:01.480 so again this is just like utter propaganda

00:42:03.960 so again he's he's painting this false picture right so he's saying that everyone was poor

00:42:24.500 not the case right not the case whatsoever and then he's complaining about the 2500 year old

00:42:30.320 Party, which put Iran on the map and actually boosted investment, boosted tourism. It was good

00:42:36.740 for the economy. But again, this is an evil man, right? He doesn't care about Iran. And I showed

00:42:43.860 you his video at the beginning of my other live stream, right, where he says, we don't want 0.92

00:42:48.840 patriots, we want Muslims. Patriotism is the enemy of Islam. If you're a patriot, that means you're 0.98

00:42:54.880 putting your country first you're not putting islam first so he had um a big problem with that

00:43:01.460 celebration that the shah had because that celebration predates islam that celebration

00:43:08.020 um was about the 2500 year history of iran going back to cyrus the great right because iran's

00:43:14.620 existed thousands of years before islam was invented the shah didn't like that so he sorry

00:43:20.040 the um the joveni didn't like that so he started creating these lies right and you can see he's

00:43:27.800 still putting in that um the 2000 year celebration and he's um spinning it to make it seem like it

00:43:37.160 was just like some some random festival or whatever but again like it's it's normal in

00:43:43.880 fact it's um highly encouraged for governments to spend money on traditional um celebrations that

00:43:53.160 you know promote heritage and culture right every single country does it um germany does

00:43:58.600 oktoberfest canada does canada day united states this fourth of july right all of these things

00:44:05.720 happen they are a part of the country's um heritage part of the culture it attracts tourism

00:44:13.880 again but this guy right this this islamic shia cleric first of all he was completely uneducated

00:44:18.920 right so he never acted he didn't know anything about the economy or finance or nothing so

00:44:22.860 he wouldn't even have the mental capacity to understand that when you invest in tourism in

00:44:30.560 your own country that actually brings more tourists in and you uh benefit from what you

00:44:38.700 invested by you know 10 times 20 times 30 times right this guy has no concept of basic economy

00:44:45.500 and again for him the only thing that matters is turning iran into an islamic sharia country

00:44:51.580 so of course he's going to complain about the celebration because the celebration

00:44:55.420 is something that predates islam and he viewed that as a threat so that's why he's you know

00:45:01.740 all of these lies and slander is going out there right it it wasn't just the the celebration of

00:45:16.880 the founding of the monarchy it was a celebration of the founding of the persian empire with cyrus

00:45:22.180 the great cyrus the great is the most well-known most decorated most respected um historical figure

00:45:29.540 and king in the history of human civilization but this islamic shia cleric didn't like that

00:45:36.660 didn't like the fact that iranian culture and heritage was being celebrated you heard you

00:45:41.500 heard it himself you heard it himself

00:45:43.280 so see see how he's saying like holding these celebrations is against islam and then he just

00:46:03.940 like lumps the iranian people in which makes no sense because the celebration is literally about

00:46:09.520 Iranian identity and heritage, right? Cyrus the Great, the founder of the Persian Empire,

00:46:14.020 whereas Islam is something that was invented in Saudi Arabia, right? Like Islam is an Arabic

00:46:19.540 thing. But he's trying to say that the 2,500 year celebration, which is actually an Iranian

00:46:28.040 cultural heritage celebration, has nothing to do with Iran. But Islam, which was brought in by the

00:46:34.900 Arab Muslim invaders in 650 AD is somehow related to Iran, right? So he, again, like that's what

00:46:41.100 Islamists do. That's what colonizers do. They want to spin the narrative. They also want to erase

00:46:46.780 the indigenous, they want to erase the identity of the indigenous people who are there and replace 0.89

00:46:54.960 it with Islam and Islamic culture. So that's what he was trying to do here, right? He's trying to

00:46:59.460 basically say that Cyrus the Great has nothing to do with Iran, even though it has everything to do

00:47:05.580 with Iran, but Islam, which is a foreign religion that was brought by the colonizers, is somehow

00:47:12.480 Iranian, right? So you can already see how he's trying to erase the Iranian identity and history,

00:47:20.400 and that's what the Islamists have constantly done in various parts of the Middle East and

00:47:26.320 and around the world where they've tried to superimpose their ideological beliefs

00:47:31.840 over the indigenous people of that land.

00:47:44.640 I'm probably more religious than those people myself. This is a story of my life. I'm mystical,

00:47:52.560 and religious but i believe the true religion the religion of god the religion of our prophet

00:48:01.840 and not what has been added to it by those who want to make it a

00:48:08.480 a job a profiteering job for themselves and that's the other thing the shah was a muslim

00:48:15.440 right like he he was a muslim um but yet that wasn't good enough for the islamic shia clerics

00:48:23.040 because he wasn't the right kind of muslim he wasn't muslim enough according to them

00:48:28.480 he put his country first he was modernizing iran

00:48:31.360 the clerics didn't like that so according to them he wasn't even a real muslim

00:48:35.840 Here, in this plain desert desert, the fundamental problem is the water.

00:48:49.840 The arrival of the little train is determined with impatience.

00:49:00.840 Que souhaitez-vous le plus au monde ?

00:49:04.840 Une meilleure vie, beaucoup d'argent, pouvoir m'amuser.

00:49:10.840 Mais est-ce qu'il n'y a pas quelque chose de spécial ?

00:49:13.840 Tout me ferait plaisir. Je ne sais pas.

00:49:17.840 Rien ne vous tente particulièrement ?

00:49:20.840 Une machine à coudre.

00:49:22.840 Avez-vous déjà vu le chat ?

00:49:25.840 Non, je ne l'ai jamais vu. Mais j'aimerais le voir. C'est mon désir le plus cher.

00:49:30.840 So do you see how this woman says, I've never seen him, but it's my biggest wish.

00:49:34.420 This should give you a sense of understanding in terms of how much the Iranian people loved their Shah.

00:49:40.660 Everyone loved the Shah. Why? Because he was working on modernizing and improving Iran.

00:49:45.700 And that was being felt and noticed around the country.

00:49:51.700 So even like, you know, rural, rural villagers who had never seen him, loved him and wanted to see him.

00:49:58.240 Like this is how much the Shah was loved by his people.

00:50:00.840 Who is the cat?

00:50:03.840 The cat is a great god.

00:50:05.840 He is the god of peace.

00:50:07.840 When we pray, we pray for the cat.

00:50:09.840 We love him a lot.

00:50:30.840 The word shah in Iran was associated to perfection.

00:50:37.600 And Iranians really did like the shah.

00:50:42.960 They associated themselves, at least when I was young, to the shah, to the country having a shah.

00:50:53.100 The shah was part of our everyday life.

00:50:58.500 That's 100% true.

00:51:00.320 the concept of shah and monarchy is so integral to iranian identity and culture um even like our

00:51:06.800 most famous uh literary work in farsi is called shahnameh which means the book of kings right um

00:51:15.040 that was written by um an iranian poet named fedrosi uh i think it was like you know a thousand

00:51:22.080 years ago or so and the shahnameh is basically the iranian um version of shakespeare for us

00:51:30.000 right so you know how shakespeare is so important to english culture and it's studied in high

00:51:35.760 schools and everything um the the shahnameh which is the book of kings right that's the same thing

00:51:43.120 for us iranians and um the concept of shah so important to our cultural identity our heritage

00:51:51.040 um our poetry our stories um it's you know our stories are all about kings freeing people

00:51:57.280 and it all goes back to cyrus the great right the founder of the persian empire

00:52:01.600 and the principles um and values that he had um and those principles and values that built

00:52:09.760 the persian empire and made it what it is today so that's why the concept of shah

00:52:15.200 is so important to our Iranian cultural identity and heritage.

00:52:31.360 The greatest show on earth is also going to be one of the most select.

00:52:35.360 The Shars invited 60 of the world's heads of state from as far away as Norway and Nepal,

00:52:41.200 Lesotho and Liechtenstein to spend three days with him in this special royal village.

00:52:46.320 There's even a British delegation. When Princess Anne and the Duke arrive here at Persepolis for

00:52:52.000 the three-day party they'll be accommodated like all the rest of the 60 heads of state

00:52:57.440 in a tent. In fact we're told in this tent although protocol might change their minds

00:53:02.800 and switch everybody around. Now this is the sort of thing they'll have in each of these

00:53:06.720 tents there are six cut glasses on a tortoiseshell tray there's this perfumed candle in a glass

00:53:13.040 cylinder with a decorative snake and an ornamental iranian ashtray for morning tea all princess anne

00:53:21.200 will have to do is give a little tinkle on her bedside bell for near at hand is her personal

00:53:27.040 maid who sleeps on a fold-away bed in the kitchen it's fully equipped as are all the arrangements

00:53:33.600 the tents are all tastefully situated in a forest of young trees

00:53:38.000 15 000 of them flown in specially from versailles not to mention the 15 000

00:53:42.800 flowering shrubs and then in the top secret banqueting

00:53:46.720 tent is the food four tons of it again all from paris

00:53:50.800 there's even a french built royal club 0.72

00:54:03.600 responsibility so this is the um the current empress of iran faradiba we love her she just

00:54:12.000 turned 87 um a few weeks ago right so she says we're about to celebrate the 2500 year history

00:54:26.560 of this country so it's a big deal guys this was a this was a huge deal

00:54:33.600 to see that everything goes well and you need to see all the small details.

00:54:38.600 We are so busy, we work, we don't have time,

00:54:42.600 it's later that we will maybe think about what it was

00:54:46.600 and how we feel now, it's the work.

00:55:03.600 I worked eight seasons at the Palace Hotel in St. Moritz.

00:55:24.640 In the palace, they called me after the season, they called me and they said,

00:55:28.100 Dishav Iran is making a big party, so we are all going to Persepolis.

00:55:34.420 We were about 40, 50 people from the palace.

00:55:39.460 I took the train from my home valley. I brought myself a Swiss sausage and a piece of bread.

00:55:45.460 My friends, they already went to Tehran before, and they went to the Hilton Hotel

00:55:50.180 and had some caviar and champagne.

00:55:51.940 As we go to the plane, everybody was quiet because a lot of them were afraid to fly.

00:56:04.940 The most of them never had been in a plane.

00:56:09.940 And then, if I can remember, there was a friend of mine, and he said,

00:56:16.940 there under this water is everything full of oil.

00:56:20.940 the scandinavian monarchs had hired a plane for the three of them and i went into that plane with

00:56:41.820 my greek cousin king constantine and in the plane i remember that i was discussing the jewels that

00:56:48.300 the queens in the plane were bringing queen anne-marie said i'm bringing the emeralds which

00:56:53.420 are huge i mean they were roman of emeralds and everyone was bringing the best i said listen

00:56:59.500 compared to what empress pharah is going to show is peanuts because she has the most important

00:57:06.300 jewels on earth at the beginning i thought it was just bling bling and as they say in germany

00:57:15.980 shikimiki that is a little bit smart and snob but nothing interesting so then i changed my mind

00:57:30.620 what's going on

00:57:36.780 are they coming after me again

00:57:45.980 Wait, what happened?

00:57:59.940 No, but it shouldn't be the song.

00:58:01.740 It shouldn't be the song.

00:58:04.340 All right, let's continue.

00:58:15.980 so

00:58:29.900 so this documentary is publicly available on youtube right like i'm streaming it from

00:58:35.980 um a youtube channel but again i guess they don't like the fact that i'm sharing

00:58:43.020 the truth with you i don't know like i'm just sharing a publicly available documentary and

00:58:47.500 i'm commenting on it um but uh wait did the stream end did the stream end wait
