00:00:00.000 Welcome to Ireland's Day on LXA
00:00:10.000 I love Mandarin and Transportation
00:00:16.000 Thank you.
00:00:46.000 Thank you.
00:01:16.000 Thank you.
00:01:46.000 Thank you.
00:02:16.000 well good evening everyone or good morning or good afternoon wherever you might be i'm goldie
00:02:28.400 gomari and this is the evening edition of the goldie show and uh you know the evening edition
00:02:35.200 is where it's a little bit more light-hearted you know as light-hearted as it can get when we're on
00:02:41.840 the topic of um you know iran and islamic terrorism and the middle east but it is a little bit more
00:02:48.720 lighthearted than you know my usual uh daily live streams that i do at 12 noon eastern um big hello
00:02:56.560 to the mods and of course a shout out to all the members on the youtube chat thank you for joining
00:03:02.640 and yeah shout out to the goldie gang great to see you all um so the last time we left off
00:03:08.240 we were watching a documentary called the mystery of the last shah of iran um uncover the mystery
00:03:15.920 of the last shah of iran's exile from his country during the iranian revolution of 1979 his illness
00:03:24.560 misdiagnosis maltreatment and eventual death and its impact on the middle east united states and
00:03:31.280 of the world um i think we we were somewhere i think around a seven because of certain like
00:03:40.160 historical inaccuracies and narratives that had been pushed um about the shah but then we kind
00:03:47.200 of got into the more interesting parts and then of course i got a copyright claim which is
00:03:52.240 unfortunate because the stream went down but then of course i appealed it and then that is back up
00:03:58.640 So part one of this documentary watch party is live.
00:04:05.020 It's back on my YouTube channel with no issues whatsoever.
00:04:08.480 So what I'm going to do today is instead of playing it at one speed, I'm going to try playing it at 1.25.
00:04:19.500 I have a feeling that maybe it's the music in the background of some of the clips that maybe gets a copyright violation or something.
00:04:28.180 i i have no idea um so i feel like it's triggering like the automatic mechanism in youtube or
00:04:35.220 something because um because every time my stream goes down i appeal it and it comes back up
00:04:41.140 especially since all of these videos are publicly available on youtube so this one for example is
00:04:46.820 available um on a channel called royal world mobility and dynasties so i'm just going to try
00:04:54.020 playing it live from here um major says before we get started i'm going to make a definitive
00:05:01.140 historical statement all of iran's problems started with the fall of the sauce on its
00:05:10.420 wow okay um that is definitely taking it quite far back but one thing i can say um for certain
00:05:21.780 is that you know within the history of um uh monarchy in iran and the various dynasties
00:05:30.580 there are three dynasties that stand out really um for iranians in terms of you know some of the
00:05:37.860 best dynasties the first one is of course the pan levy um the second one is the sauce on it and 0.84
00:05:44.100 And the third one, oh gosh, the name, I think it's like the Afshavids or something like that.
00:05:53.140 I can't recall the third one, but they're somewhere in the middle between the Sasanids and the Pahlavi dynasty.
00:05:59.820 And it's those three dynasties that were truly the greatest ones in Iran.
00:06:08.160 So I'll have to look into that, but that's a very, very interesting statement.
00:06:14.100 You might not be wrong there. You might not be wrong. I mean, my, my expertise, let's say, is more modern Iranian history, you know, starting from like the 1850s, up until the present day, I have read and looked into, you know, ancient, ancient Iranian history as well, but I'm just not as up to speed with the details, like on the spot as I am with with modern Iranian history.
00:06:40.580 so i'm going to make a note of that major and i'm going to go back and uh and look that up
00:06:46.100 because that's a very interesting very interesting statement um that you're making
00:06:53.140 so what was it the rr sasset maybe maybe it was the r sasset okay okay it was the it was
00:07:01.300 the r sasset okay i think that's the one that's the one yeah okay all right guys so let's try
00:07:08.100 continuing this documentary i'm going to play it at 1.25 speed so you know if the sound is a little
00:07:15.140 bit off that's going to be why um but hopefully this isn't going to catch the um the you know
00:07:24.820 copyright um algorithm evolution asadullah alam the shah's most trusted advisor and friend passed
00:07:35.140 away. The cause of his death, ironically, was cancer of the blood. Alam's death, particularly
00:07:40.260 dying of the same illness, immensely weakened the Shah, both physically and emotionally.
00:07:45.140 Basically, the Queen took over and they always believed that the Shah is very much hated,
00:07:49.780 the Queen is very much loved, and so if the Shah goes, they can take over, and they never put any
00:07:56.820 value on religion. With the backing of a small obscure committee created to counsel the Queen
00:08:02.580 a few years earlier, the ailing king's condition paved the way for the Empress Farah to begin
00:08:07.060 making critical national decisions. They released all the communists, all the prisoners, and they
00:08:11.620 put their own people in jail. This is Mrs. Farah's move. I said, if you think this lady, 0.65
00:08:17.860 the Windsor Queen, or your son could take your place, I'm sorry to say you're mistaken. If you go,
00:08:24.900 everything which was done, it probably would be blood in the streets. If you go,
00:08:29.780 all the people who has served you with their heart and loyalty they would be those who would
00:08:35.540 not say good thing about you i think most of it was queen and her entourage i really think those
00:08:40.740 days those decisions were imposed on the shah and it wasn't him who had taken the initiative
00:08:50.500 isn't that her role though like he literally crowned her as empress right so for the first
00:08:56.660 time in over a thousand years iran had an empress um isn't that her role and responsibility if the 0.73
00:09:04.100 shah is sick of course it's it's her responsibility to help run the country right so i don't see why
00:09:12.980 that's a criticism here betrayed by friends at home and abandoned by allies abroad the shah 0.68
00:09:18.980 was faced with the country on the brink of collapse this is the wonder oven pro from our 0.52
00:09:24.500 our next generation non-toxic at the time that the shah was meeting his new civilian government 0.83
00:09:30.680 this past weekend he was aware that the u.s had made its decision it was a subtle decision it
00:09:36.020 did not constitute a public disavowal of the shah nor in any way call for his abdication
00:09:40.600 the decision was simply to instruct u.s ambassador sullivan that the next time the shah asked for
00:09:45.600 advice on whether or not to take a vacation the advice should be by all means yes this was done
00:09:50.940 in the full knowledge that if the shah leaves he may never get back so that's really important
00:09:56.540 right like like they are confirming that the shah never abdicated right that's really important
00:10:02.700 because that kind of gets into um that gets into the whole you know the shah abdicated and left 0.75
00:10:09.660 and that's a lie that the communists and the islamists love to push out there um as a way to
00:10:16.540 delegitimize um the uh the the current shah of iran who's in exile right because again
00:10:24.220 his royal highness was aphalabi when he was um i believe he was 20 years old as soon as as
00:10:30.300 soon as his father the late china passed away um he swore the succession oath in cairo so
00:10:38.060 that's a really important fact guys the the shah never abdicated not even when he left iran for
00:10:44.140 treatment.
00:11:14.140 right so this is a very famous line the shah of iran constantly says if iran goes the entire
00:11:20.380 middle east will fall apart and those of you who are now looking at the current situation today in
00:11:25.020 the middle east it is exactly like the shah predicted um prior to israel being the dam 0.77
00:11:31.980 to islamic terrorism it was iran iran was holding the dam keeping islamic terrorism 0.77
00:11:39.820 insecurity and instability um at bay it was the shah of iran and that is why right now um the 0.56
00:11:46.460 shah to this day um is still feared and hated by the islamists and you know you see many of them
00:11:54.140 in the youtube chat um or you know in the comment section on on um on x constantly insulting um
00:12:02.140 the Shah of Iran insulting the Pahlavi dynasty because even the name Pahlavi instills this 0.59
00:12:11.100 fear and rage into these Islamists I mean you say the word Pahlavi and they just 0.99
00:12:16.540 start howling like mad right because to this day almost 50 years later they still 0.71
00:12:25.340 fear him like he was holding back the Islamists and the communists and unfortunately Jimmy Carter 0.99
00:12:31.980 was too stupid to see that um richard nixon saw that richard nixon recognized what the shah of 1.00
00:12:38.380 iran was doing and was a big supporter um but jimmy carter was just an idiot who fell for the soviet 1.00
00:12:45.900 propaganda america was indeed glad with the shah's decision to depart the country and abandon his 0.96
00:12:58.860 reign okay he never actually abandoned okay so so this narrator um is trying to paint a picture
00:13:10.220 of something that didn't happen we just heard that news article right the news article where
00:13:16.300 the guy like the british guy was speaking about it he said the sha never abdicated so why is this
00:13:23.900 narrator now claiming that the shah abandoned his reign right he didn't do that so that's um
00:13:31.260 that's 100 factually incorrect what the narrator here said
00:13:53.900 He was under the impression when he left Tehran
00:14:04.900 that he was going to be going to the United States
00:14:07.440 where a living arrangement had already been arranged.
00:14:11.880 He should not have listened to the American or the British ambassador.
00:14:21.620 This is hard day.
00:14:23.900 guys the the day that the shah of iran left the country is the day that light left the country 0.97
00:14:30.260 and it's the day that this evil darkness um took over the country and it's been holding the country 0.92
00:14:38.240 hostage for the last 46 years in january 16 1979 the sick king and his family left iran
00:14:53.900 Not trusting his pilot, the Shah himself flew the Royal Family 707 to Aswan, where he met
00:15:05.900 his old friend, President Anwar Sadat.
00:15:08.240 Okay, can we just pause for a moment and just point out how incredibly intelligent and educated
00:15:17.320 and badass the Shah was?
00:15:20.180 He literally flew the plane.
00:15:22.180 He himself, the Shah of Iran, flew the plane himself.
00:15:27.480 How many kings do you know do that? 0.88
00:15:31.180 This is why the Islamists hated him, because he was a force to be reckoned with. 0.73
00:15:36.800 He received the royal treatment with a 21-gun salute and honor guard.
00:15:44.260 But the king's mood was somber.
00:15:46.980 It was a terrible day for the Shah, representing his entry into a life of exile.
00:15:50.280 As the Shah stayed in a grand hotel suite on an island in the middle of the Nile River, 0.76
00:15:56.280 back in Iran, people were on the streets in the millions, rejoicing in his departure 0.78
00:16:00.360 and celebrating Khomeini's victorious return. 1.00
00:16:04.440 Look at these idiots. Look at these idiotic people, right? A lot of them are the leftists 1.00
00:16:09.320 and the communists, right? Many of these people would later be executed. These people remind me
00:16:14.680 of um the current lefties and communists in western countries today who are out there you 0.97
00:16:20.040 know cheering hamas and cheering you know the terrorists and cheering islamic terrorism right 1.00
00:16:27.560 it's so frustrating because when i see these these idiotic people today in 2025 this is what 1.00
00:16:34.040 it reminds not just me of but 80 million other iranians who have either lived through it or 0.98
00:16:40.280 know about it and experience it right like just like the guys literally holding um the this image
00:16:47.560 of khomeini right like the evil dictator and they're like cheering right like what are you 1.00
00:16:54.920 cheering like so either they're islamists or they're you know idiotic woke progressive lefties 1.00
00:17:00.840 who think you know oh we're anti-imperialists you know we beat the imperialists right these are the 1.00
00:17:07.240 people who ushered in a 47-year nightmare right of of of an islamic dictatorship that turned the 0.99
00:17:16.440 country into a seventh century hellhole governed by sharia law these people have no idea the horrors 0.97
00:17:23.080 that are coming um we call them the generation of 79 or in farsi like nasa panjo haft and 0.99
00:17:31.560 we despise these people like we just we just look at them we're like what were you thinking like 1.00
00:17:35.880 what was going on in your idiotic heads like these people were just and they're dangerous 1.00
00:17:42.520 right they're dangerous so dangerous and they you know they they successfully destabilized 1.00
00:17:48.920 and took over iran and now they're trying to do that in your countries and again 0.97
00:17:55.320 remember the 1979 islamic revolution guys it didn't happen overnight it took 40 years
00:18:00.360 40 years of a slow buildup, right?
00:18:05.800 It is not known how long the Shah will stay in Egypt or when he will arrive in the United States. 0.59
00:18:10.100 Early today, three of his children and his mother-in-law arrived in Texas near Lubbock to join the Shah's son there.
00:18:15.040 It is believed that the Shah and his family will take up temporary sanctuary in the Palm Springs, California, estate of publisher Walter Annenberg, where the Shah's sister and mother now are staying.
00:18:25.100 The Shah had lost his throne, but the crisis of Iran was just beginning.
00:18:30.360 He remained in Egypt only for about five days.
00:18:34.220 It's interesting that Dr. Flandrean came to Aswan to do a blood campaign.
00:18:38.000 I also want to point it out, like, it was only when the Shah left that things got really
00:18:44.080 violent in Iran, right? 0.92
00:18:45.840 Because when communists and Islamists take over, right, all they do is they bring about 0.98
00:18:50.280 death, destruction, and despair. 1.00
00:18:52.800 Like if you look at the last 47 years of occupied Iran, there is not a single good thing that 1.00
00:18:57.740 come out of the islamic republic well you know what actually no there is one good thing so so 1.00
00:19:03.420 the only good thing that has happened to iran since the islamic republic took over and forced 0.97
00:19:10.620 sharia law down everyone's throats is that they actually killed islam in iran less than 30 percent 0.99
00:19:17.900 of iranians today are practicing muslims and even most of them they're like very secular muslims 0.96
00:19:23.500 right like they're not uh you know like crazy jihadi muslims that the islamic dictatorship 0.91
00:19:29.420 wants them to be um so yeah like the one good thing about about the islamic regime occupying 0.78
00:19:35.340 iran i guess is that um less than 30 percent of iranians are muslim a few years ago the islamic 0.93
00:19:42.380 republic actually announced that they shut down 50 000 mosques out of 75 000 mosques in iran
00:19:49.740 So they shut down two-thirds of mosques in Iran due to no attendance.
00:19:55.360 So, yeah, I mean, I guess that's the only good thing I can think of, right? 0.97
00:20:01.400 I mean, it's still not enough to justify 47 years of a brutal Islamic dictatorship. 0.99
00:20:07.720 But, I mean, that's the only thing I can think of is that, you know, Iran is no longer a Muslim country. 0.98
00:20:16.300 The illness still remained a guard of secret. 0.93
00:20:19.740 His travel plans to the U.S. were about to change.
00:20:22.360 Lured out of Iran, the Shah was told he could no longer stay in Egypt.
00:20:51.360 presence there was creating complications for the Sadat regime amongst Arab Muslims.
00:20:56.800 But where would he go? Few countries were willing to welcome the fallen monarch.
00:21:02.960 King Hassan of Morocco temporarily admitted the Shah as a favor to the U.S. 0.64
00:21:21.360 The Shah's two-month stay in Morocco began on a positive note.
00:21:29.680 He was reunited with the royal family.
00:21:33.600 The king's illness was still being kept secret from the media.
00:21:36.600 He went to Morocco where he had some comfortable quarters, but on February the 14th, 1979,
00:21:45.500 there was a mob that went into the American embassy.
00:21:49.240 Khomeini's followers in Iran, fearing a repeat of the Shah's return to power, stormed the
00:21:55.240 American embassy.
00:21:56.960 Negotiations between the Carter administration and the Iranian moderates produce a tentative
00:22:04.120 de-escalation of the situation.
00:22:06.880 The moderates, by the way, right, the moderates were the progressives, right, the progressives 0.92
00:22:11.120 and the communists who were then pretty much all executed by the Islamists because they 0.59
00:22:15.700 were too moderate, right?
00:22:17.840 President Carter was put on notice for the first time and knew from this point on that allowing the shot into the U.S. would cause harm for U.S. personnel stationed in Iran.
00:22:25.960 With that trouble in Tehran, the government of Morocco and King Hassan felt very uncomfortable in him staying in Morocco and asked him to leave.
00:22:41.280 But where was he going to go? Nobody wanted to take him. They were afraid of reprisals.
00:22:47.840 And finally, with the intervention of the Princess Ashraf, his twin sister, and Henry Kissinger, and David Rockefeller, they prevailed upon the government of the Bahamas. 0.93
00:23:02.780 Powerful friends were able to get the Shah and his entourage
00:23:15.700 temporary safe haven in the Bahamas 0.96
00:23:17.400 Exorbitant sums were charged for the royal stay
00:23:21.280 The king and queen did not enjoy their new residence
00:23:26.160 Their quarters were cramped and afforded little privacy
00:23:28.580 The Shah swam in the tropical waters and took strolls down the beach, but his health was
00:23:35.840 continually deteriorating. Rockefeller employee Robert Armeo was sent to the Bahamas. From there
00:23:42.860 on, Armeo would become the king's main advisor, handler, spokesman, and chief of staff. 0.94
00:23:51.220 Blue skies and clear waters did not change the fact that the Shah was sick. 0.54
00:23:58.580 Dr. Flandrand came to see him in the Bahamas and that was the first time that the Shah's illness
00:24:05.460 seemed to become more severe. Apparently while he was in the Bahamas, he had developed a lymph
00:24:10.900 node in his neck and they had done a needle biopsy and had made a diagnosis of Hodgkin's
00:24:15.300 disease. Needle biopsies are really not a good way to make a primary diagnosis of lymphoma.
00:24:20.500 They had contended that it was because of the nature of secrecy that they were not able to get
00:24:25.140 a genuine biopsy an excisional biopsy i find that a little hard to believe because taking the lymph
00:24:31.300 node out from the neck is a rather simple procedure i was surprised that the french
00:24:35.780 hematologist was treating the sha for a hematologic problem a malignant problem without a proper
00:24:43.780 diagnosis and in secret i actually have heard this um from several several iranian historians um that
00:24:55.540 allegedly the the french doctors who had been diagnosing and treating him in secret for a while
00:25:02.740 um had misdiagnosed him on purpose and were like mistreating him on purpose or something i don't
00:25:09.140 know if it's true or not but that's what is said by some iranian historians and they say the reason
00:25:14.820 that he was like misdiagnosed and wasn't treated properly by the french is because the french um
00:25:20.420 had khomeini in exile right and they were trying to get khomeini to go back to um iran so i mean
00:25:28.900 i don't know um how how true that is again like those are just what i've heard from from iranian
00:25:35.460 sources um so take it with a grain of salt but i'm sure you know some of the iranians in the
00:25:40.420 chat can can comment on that in the youtube chat doing chemotherapy without a tissue diagnosis
00:25:45.540 a mistake. The disease, which had previously been a more benign cancer in 1974, was becoming more
00:25:57.020 malignant and required more active treatment, preferably in a hospital. They thought that he
00:26:03.060 had a lymphoproliferative disorder and now a low-grade lymph malignancy of non-Hodgkin's
00:26:07.620 variety, and now they thought he had Hopkins disease. Now, instead of being chronic lymphatic
00:26:12.240 leukemia had turned into a large cell lymphoma which is a more dangerous disease with the 1.00
00:26:22.400 guys i just want to point out something uh you know this is the idiocy and the stupidity of the 0.99
00:26:27.360 trolls in the chat so um this guy named ali khan so obviously he's not iranian i'm assuming he's 0.98
00:26:33.360 like pakistani or something because no iranian has a last name khan anyway he said the shah
00:26:38.560 conspired in killing the ayatollah's father um if anyone bothers to go and read history 0.94
00:26:45.920 um the ayatollah's father died when the ayatollah was a kid okay so i mean it's just a ridiculous 1.00
00:26:55.440 statement to make but you know this is the low iq um idiots who push out all these false statements 1.00
00:27:04.640 without any facts, without any knowledge, without anything, right? Because again, just the word 1.00
00:27:09.820 Pahlavi instills such fear in them that they start howling like rabid animals. Why? Because
00:27:18.400 Shah was a big reason why Islamists did not gain power in the Middle East. So, I mean, 0.98
00:27:27.180 they will throw anything and everything they can. And it's usually like, you know,
00:27:31.880 the weird Pakistani box or whatever um so yeah like just this is a low level you know iq 1.00
00:27:40.040 nonsense that we iranians constantly deal with from from non-iranians who try and like 0.98
00:27:45.800 put out like a bunch of of islamist nonsense about our shah
00:27:50.320 a much more serious outcome chronic lymphocytic leukemia is a type of cancer that starts with 0.90
00:27:58.480 certain white blood cells in the bone marrow. These cancer cells travel from
00:28:02.020 the marrow into the blood. The size of the cancer cells is one classification
00:28:06.160 system for lymphoma.
00:28:09.540 Certainly I would not have accepted a needle biopsy as the basis for treating
00:28:15.160 someone. After a couple of months the British government decided that the Shah
00:28:21.100 was no longer welcome in the Bahamas. He was like a citizen without a country and 1.00
00:28:27.160 And with a lot of diplomatic maneuvering
00:28:29.920 through David Rockefeller and through Henry Kissinger,
00:28:33.380 the Mexican government and the president of Mexico, 0.52
00:28:35.920 Lopez Cortillo, agreed to have the Shah come to Mexico. 0.81
00:28:44.160 But why Mexico? 0.93
00:28:45.920 It was the closest destination to the US.
00:28:48.400 That was a good place because they didn't need oil from Iran.
00:28:52.340 They didn't have really any political interests
00:28:54.340 in the region that were very important to him.
00:29:03.220 They arranged to have him live in a comfortable villa
00:29:06.420 in the resort town of Cuentnavaca.
00:29:11.360 At this point, he began to have many, many doctors.
00:29:14.200 There were doctors in Mexico who saw him,
00:29:17.400 Dr. Flandran who came to see him.
00:29:19.600 I think it was in the end of October
00:29:22.260 When somebody from the U.S. Embassy called me,
00:29:26.040 there was an important fellow in Cuernavaca,
00:29:30.080 and they were not giving me the name.
00:29:31.620 They were just an important who had a problem
00:29:34.580 with jaundice and abdominal pain.
00:29:37.400 That was all I was told.
00:29:38.500 And the American government, through David Rockefeller,
00:29:42.480 sent down another doctor, a Dr. Benjamin Keene,
00:29:46.460 an internist and a specialist in tropical diseases
00:29:49.820 from New York.
00:29:51.080 But he thought he was being called down to see the Shah because he had malaria.
00:29:55.780 When David Rockefeller came and he saw that Shah was sick, he was jaundiced,
00:30:00.180 and somebody mentioned malaria, he went back to New York and he sent his topical medicine expert.
00:30:05.240 Ben Keene went down there and thought that what they were thinking was malaria was really platelets,
00:30:10.320 which is a blood clotting element.
00:30:11.820 We're a malaria-free country since the early 60s.
00:30:16.460 As the royal family bid their time in Cuernavaca, hoping for...
00:30:19.820 Oh, sorry. So someone says, I love your videos. Saw you on TikTok. Thank you for your bravery.
00:30:25.940 Thank you so much. And, you know, just for you, since you saw me on TikTok, Iranian here with
00:30:30.700 another pro tip for anyone who's not from the Middle East. If you like my, you know, if you
00:30:36.120 like my live streams, make sure to like and subscribe on YouTube. All right. I know that
00:30:40.120 was that was really corny, but I'm glad I'm glad you like my videos on TikTok. Yes. Yes. For those
00:30:45.080 of you who are new, I am the Iranian here person. So there you go. For an invitation to the U.S.,
00:30:52.620 the Shah was visited by an old friend, President Richard Nixon. If the United States does not
00:30:58.340 stand by its friends, we are going to end up with no friends. Right now, the bad news is
00:31:04.620 it's easier than ever to lose money when selling your home.
00:31:08.700 he had a an obstruction in the liver or the common bile ducts probably due to its own or
00:31:16.860 due to malignancy well that was the first time that there began to be a serious disagreement
00:31:21.780 among the doctors dr keen is a parasitologist he wasn't uh really a hematologist or an oncologist
00:31:32.600 i have no idea why a tropical medicine expert had anything to do with somebody with gold stones
00:31:38.280 but that's the way the politicians were handling the problem.
00:31:41.620 The Queen's memoirs describe the arrival of Dr. Keene
00:31:43.960 as the start of a period of diagnostic cacophony,
00:31:46.540 which transpired into a chain of critical disasters.
00:31:50.200 Dr. Keene, on the other hand,
00:31:51.500 depicted the Shah as a difficult and secretive patient
00:31:53.560 for refusing to provide blood samples
00:31:55.420 and withholding critical information about his illness.
00:31:58.280 Ben had worked with the Rockefellers for a number of years
00:32:00.740 and that the Rockefellers were good friends of the Shah
00:32:03.580 and they implored him to bring him to New York.
00:32:08.280 Should I? Should I switch to Brave? Okay, I'll do that. I'll do that. I have Brave on my phone, but I don't have it on my laptop. Maybe I'll do that for the next one.
00:32:21.080 shaw in mexico uh they had the facilities at their hospital we have the best private
00:32:26.520 hospital in mexico we have the facilities to go i actually don't mind the commercials right now
00:32:31.960 because um i'm worried about being copyrighted right even though i'm literally just playing a
00:32:38.200 documentary um and giving comments and feedback on it so you know like i'm literally at um like my
00:32:46.120 playback speed i'm at 1.25 right like i'm at 1.25 so that you know it helps with you know maybe i'll
00:32:54.600 bring it down to 1.15 um let's see what happens there right all right so i'm at 1.15 but i'm
00:33:03.720 hoping that this will kind of prevent it from being copyrighted or something which is again
00:33:08.440 the most bizarre thing because the first time it happened stream went down but then i appealed it
00:33:14.360 and now that stream is back up. So I know it's not an issue and it's never an issue, but yeah,
00:33:23.080 that's why I'm just keeping the commercials here. The diagnosis, we had the facilities
00:33:26.760 to perform surgery. Dr. Flandron initially thought that the Shah could be treated in Mexico.
00:33:33.800 He inspects the hospital in Mexico City and gives a favorable report to our mail, 0.65
00:33:38.120 who responds to Dr. Flandron, for a patient like his majesty, this is not enough. We have
00:33:42.840 to go for the best and only the united states can provide the best and apparently dr king's
00:33:49.000 thought the mexican facilities were inadequate dr keen the only american physician to have
00:33:54.360 personally examined the shop was at this point in direct talks with state department's chief medical
00:33:58.840 officer dr even dustin recalling these events in his book dr keen highlights five distinct
00:34:04.360 conditions all demanding immediate treatment the shaw's cancer and enlarged spleen were included
00:34:09.000 in the report answering the question of how much time the shah has dr keen reiterates days maybe
00:34:14.840 weeks we do not have months when asked if he can treat the shah in mexico dr keen replies
00:34:20.120 not as easily or as quickly but it could be done i was in washington dc i visited the state
00:34:27.400 department then having dinner with dr even dustin we're talking about the facilities for operating
00:34:32.120 in mexico and i said we do have that we had everything ready at the abc hospital according
00:34:36.840 to him we are ready to to bring him over and then all of a sudden he was called over the phone and
00:34:43.320 you have a ct scan in mexico i said no we don't have but we don't need it we we can make a
00:34:47.880 diagnosis with regular ultrasound which we did at the time for everybody with gold stones we
00:34:53.720 always use ultrasound and then after he went back to the phone and i went that was it and i have no
00:35:01.240 idea if the shaw ever made a decision himself he took dr keen's uh word for most of the thing but
00:35:07.560 at that time when this happened i had already done two operations i had operated on two ambassadors
00:35:12.760 to the u.s so they knew that i was a board certified surgeon and i had been trusted to
00:35:20.360 operate on the u.s ambassador to mexico what more truth of confidence you needed you need me back
00:35:28.920 in parliament i was in parliament for seven years and uh you know politics for 10 but in parliament
00:35:35.480 as elected official for seven i'm just like i'm taking a breather it's kind of nice being 1.00
00:35:41.160 a private citizen and being able to say what i want to say and call out all of the islamists 0.97
00:35:46.120 right um i'll think about it i'll think about it but right now like i'm just i'm really focusing on 0.97
00:35:53.000 raising awareness about radicalism and and islamic terrorism right
00:36:01.400 but thank you for the kind words jay i appreciate that
00:36:06.600 i felt that and so did henry kissinger who and also in no room and worked with me on this
00:36:14.360 worked together, we felt that at the very least he should be invited to find refuge in the United
00:36:24.040 States. And what about the Rockefellers? What was their interest in the Shah's affairs? 1.00
00:36:29.640 Chase Manhattan Bank, which was owned by the Rockefellers and on whose board Henry Kissinger
00:36:34.120 sat, was the exclusive bank to the Shah's government. The main accounts for the Central
00:36:38.440 Bank of Iran as well as the National Iranian Oil Company were held at Chase.
00:36:41.800 President Carter was very reluctant to admit the Shah, because he knew all the possibilities. 0.56
00:36:49.160 He was alerted by his own people.
00:36:50.980 But even though I don't think he was convinced, he thought, well, if everyone else is pushing
00:36:55.480 this, then perhaps it's the best thing to do.
00:36:57.800 Maybe I'm not seeing something that should be seen in this situation, and I'm not going
00:37:00.520 to hold out forever against my top advisers who are all now advising me to do the opposite.
00:37:05.920 But then he was forced to.
00:37:07.920 You cannot abandon a friend.
00:37:09.960 We put him in power.
00:37:10.960 sick in mexico they don't know how to do things jim hurts just do tai chi it heals
00:37:21.520 what force could possibly influence a standing u.s president to go against his own best judgment 0.59
00:37:26.320 and acquiesce one of the the the items that i don't think is is well known or i certainly learned
00:37:34.880 in the process of my research was that the embassy had already been overrun three times before the
00:37:40.000 the one that is so famous where the hostages were actually taken and kept we came under very heavy
00:37:47.220 attack from two or three sides of the compound and a group of very well-equipped armed men
00:37:54.260 came in here shot up my house and occupied it shot up the embassy chancery i mean i don't know
00:38:03.860 why anyone is surprised. You know, like, I don't understand why anyone in 2025 is surprised when
00:38:09.980 they see Islamists, you know, behave violently. It's how they always behave. Listen, as soon as 1.00
00:38:15.360 they took control of the country, look what they did. All these Islamists, right, the same people 1.00
00:38:19.560 who were against the Shah, right, who were saying that the Shah is corrupt or, you know, all that,
00:38:25.320 like, jihadi nonsense, right? Those are the same people who then went after Americans and started 0.97
00:38:31.840 shooting them up right and took them hostage right like like these islamists are violent and you can't 1.00
00:38:38.400 trust them like i can't believe how so many people have forgotten about the 1979 hostage crisis 1.00
00:38:49.760 and today you know they're pretending as if like the islamic republic is not a threat to america 0.99
00:38:55.200 it's it's wild we telephoned to the security committee with the khomeini group they managed 0.86
00:39:08.320 to send a group of people here just in the nick of time because we had abandoned the ground floor
00:39:13.680 and we're all on the upper floor by the time they uh these lads came these freedom fighters and uh
00:39:20.400 did you did you catch that did you catch that so the islamists even back then were calling themselves
00:39:26.320 freedom fighters right does that ring a bell guys does that sound familiar all these like islamic 0.87
00:39:32.560 terrorists today all these like people in in western countries who call hamas like freedom 0.87
00:39:38.400 fighters where do you think they got that narrative from right freedom fighters it's it's 0.98
00:39:46.080 it's the word that islamists use right to promote their jihad 0.83
00:39:55.280 i mean he he says the word sarcastically right like he's obviously saying the word sarcastically 1.00
00:40:00.880 but let's go back pay attention to that right even back then 50 years ago these islamists
00:40:07.520 and jihadis were calling themselves freedom fighters so you know when we iranians are warning 0.77
00:40:14.240 you we're like you know that's that's what radical terrorists do you know that's radical islam this 0.85
00:40:21.840 is you know we know what we're talking about because we've literally lived through it it is 0.87
00:40:27.320 it is within our modern day history so when i tell you that these people who call themselves 0.89
00:40:35.020 freedom fighters are islamic terrorists i speak from experience and knowledge right 0.86
00:40:42.320 so let's go back again pay attention to what he's saying and you know he's saying it sarcastically 0.98
00:40:49.500 right
00:40:49.940 you fight it uh shot up the embassy chancery we the guys the freedom fighters right the freedom
00:41:05.620 fighters um shot up people were violent and then they took people hostage what does that sound like
00:41:14.980 the same freedom fighters who did the exact same thing to innocent people on october 7 right these 0.77
00:41:20.980 are not freedom fighters they're islamic terrorists they label themselves as freedom fighters to make 0.98
00:41:27.860 you guys think that you're the bad guys but they are the bad guys right always have been 0.99
00:41:33.380 I didn't realize this was a fact, and I think a lot of Americans didn't, that
00:42:03.140 that Carter was very concerned about our embassy personnel.
00:42:07.100 The treatment was delayed, and after several months in Mexico, they...
00:42:13.520 Oh, so I see that a lot of, like, the pro-Balastine people have joined the chat.
00:42:20.400 So I just wanted to let you guys know, this is 100% a pro-Israel channel.
00:42:26.460 I'm 100% a Zionist. Israel 100% has the right to exist.
00:42:30.100 in fact um the two-state solution was israel and jordan so i mean if you guys want you know
00:42:37.300 um arab palestine you guys can go to jordan because i don't even think um gaza and and
00:42:44.420 judaian samaria belong to the arabic um invaders i think they belong to the jews because it's the
00:42:50.180 ancestral homeland of the jewish people so for all of the um jew haters who are in the chat
00:42:56.900 I'm Yisrael Chai and you guys can cry about it.
00:43:00.980 Shah was flown to the United States to New York Hospital.
00:43:06.900 The Carter administration did a humanitarian thing and let him in.
00:43:12.260 And then all the trouble started. 0.91
00:43:20.740 The Shah was granted entry to the U.S. based on Mexico, 0.93
00:43:24.020 lacking the necessary doctors and equipment to do the surgery.
00:43:28.180 He arrived in New York Hospital, had a CAT scan or ultrasound investigation.
00:43:33.700 It was determined that he had a common bile duct stone which was obstructing his common bile duct.
00:43:41.780 The gallbladder, a small pear-shaped organ, holds a digestive fluid called bile.
00:43:46.260 Hardened deposits of digestive fluid which form in the gallbladder create gallstones
00:43:50.820 and can block the bile duct. This obstruction can result in various complications,
00:43:54.980 the most common being jaundice. Dr. King went to the shop to have
00:43:58.660 the most famous surgeon for gallbladder problem in the U.S. at that time, Dr. Frank Glenn,
00:44:02.900 did the operation. And of course, he didn't do it. They sent somebody else.
00:44:06.340 It was actually his trainee and student. Dr. Glenn was my mentor, my teacher, who was retired.
00:44:14.260 The operation was actually done by Dr. Bjorn Tharbjornerson.
00:44:17.860 I was in my office. It was across the street from the New York hospital. I got a call from
00:44:25.860 Dr. Hibbert Williams. He told me he had a patient with common duct stones and asked me whether I
00:44:32.280 would consult on him and take care of the problems. I went over to the hospital and saw him. He told
00:44:38.620 me the patient was the Shah of Iran who had been admitted to the hospital the day before under an
00:44:45.540 Armeo, annoyed by the Undersecretary of State's unwillingness to allow the Shah entry into
00:44:50.700 the U.S., arranges for New York Hospital to admit the ill king under his very name, David
00:44:55.660 Newsom.
00:44:56.660 I went into the room, Shah sat up and shook my hand and said that he was glad to have
00:45:04.300 me take care of him since I was a doctor that other doctors came to for their own care.
00:45:11.300 Where he got that information from, I have no idea.
00:45:13.980 The patient was not informed of who was going to operate on him.
00:45:17.980 What drove me absolutely crazy was that Ben Keene, and I don't know what his agenda was,
00:45:24.900 would never let me know in advance of what was going on.
00:45:28.220 The oncologist who was engaged in New York Hospital apparently did not even know that
00:45:35.540 the shawl was being operated on.
00:45:37.060 We discussed the case and what we should do.
00:45:39.060 And I was looking at some of the records and I noticed that he had a big spleen and it
00:45:43.420 kept bugging me and bugging me and bugging me and everyone said well you know we got to take care of
00:45:47.580 this gallbladder first so here i have a spleen that i don't know what's in there and i need to
00:45:53.420 know what's in that spleen because i know he's got lymphoma up in his neck which would make him
00:45:57.580 localized lymphoma but if he has it in his spleen this this large cell lymphoma is this high grade
00:46:03.340 disease as opposed to low grade disease then i would never radiated him i would have given him
00:46:08.220 chemotherapy the day of operation was the was the next morning the administration arranged to get me
00:46:18.620 early time eight o'clock i believe it was i drove in the next morning determined to say
00:46:25.420 to meet with the people and say we need to take out the spleen i show up and i'm told that he's
00:46:30.140 in the operating room and i ran up to the to the operating room knocked on the door stuck his head
00:46:35.180 into the operating room i said why don't you why don't you remove the spleen at the same time i
00:46:39.420 do it i was furious had i been told that they were going to go to surgery i instead of showing up at
00:46:45.100 eight o'clock in the morning i would have showed up at five o'clock in the morning i say fellas
00:46:48.620 let's take out the spleen the surgeon didn't want to take out the spleen he said if you want to take
00:46:52.940 out the spleen you're a braver man than i i was doing a semi-emergency operation i did not have
00:46:59.340 the child's permission to take out the spleen i had never talked to him i never talked to him
00:47:04.860 about the need for taking out this breed it's actually really interesting
00:47:18.780 some cookies sweeten your holidays while the wrong ones slow down your mac
00:47:25.260 finally the long-awaited operation took place in new york hospital the price
00:47:29.340 Priced by according to Armeo and Keene, it could only be done best.
00:47:33.200 The operation went well.
00:47:35.860 Removed the gallbladder, removed the stones from the lower end of the common duct without any problem at all.
00:47:42.000 Removed all the other stones in the lower end of the common duct.
00:47:45.620 A T-tube, a tube, was inserted into the bile duct, and the abdomen was closed at that time without a splenectomy.
00:47:54.840 The Shah kept asking me, after he had waken up from his operation, how sure I was that there were no stones left in a milliliter tree.
00:48:07.320 I told him that I did not think there was any.
00:48:10.100 Of course, one gallstone was left in. 0.79
00:48:12.720 The Shah's simple and routine operation, handled by the trainee, ended up with complications. 0.99
00:48:18.900 I feel like they did this on purpose. 0.61
00:48:20.700 like they were doing everything they could in their power almost it seems as if to like
00:48:26.520 mess up everything and kill him, right?
00:48:31.680 I went to the operating room because he had obstruction, violent obstruction, he was jaundice. 0.98
00:48:37.240 After the operation, he continued jaundice.
00:48:40.100 So the problem was there.
00:48:42.900 The gold ladder was removed, but the stones that were broken in the duct were there.
00:48:46.400 And I felt a little bit uneasy about it.
00:48:52.040 So this is the guy that messed up a very simple, what the doctors are saying is a very simple
00:48:59.540 operation.
00:49:00.540 This guy messed it up.
00:49:02.540 The fact that the left-hepatic stone had not come out as an identifiable stone, but
00:49:10.840 both the scoping and the x-rays failed to show. 0.62
00:49:16.280 Now I understand why when people say they killed the shots, yeah, I see it, I 100% see it.
00:49:26.600 When he remained installed, so there was nothing else we could do.
00:49:29.520 He didn't do the right operation.
00:49:31.160 The right operation is remove the gold barrel and open the white duct and do it on angiogram
00:49:37.520 like that means x-rays in the operating room.
00:49:40.040 X-rays done in the operating room are never of the best quality.
00:49:43.960 and then through a portable machine and lack the fine definition that you do in the regular
00:49:51.480 x-ray near your hospital one of the best medical centers in the u.s not kidding me and and they
00:49:57.160 help the equipment to do the operative monogram is not good that that's that's nonsense so they
00:50:06.280 called a specialist from british columbia called the dr burheen from vancouver to come in to
00:50:12.760 to remove the stone through the tube,
00:50:16.040 which he did successfully.
00:50:20.560 As the queen said,
00:50:22.840 he got the worst possible treatment.
00:50:25.000 Yeah, I think that they were trying to get rid of him
00:50:27.920 without making it obvious 100%.
00:50:31.160 It's shameful.
00:50:34.240 On November 3rd, there was a medical news conference
00:50:36.520 in New York discussing the Shah's health.
00:50:38.960 Cancer was the main topic.
00:50:41.040 His Imperial Majesty Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi was admitted to New York Hospital on Monday
00:50:46.120 evening, October 22nd, with a diagnosis of lymphoma, for which he has been treated for
00:50:52.120 approximately six years by a team of renowned French physicians.
00:50:55.920 The medical secret the Shah had tried so hard to keep, given from his own people, was
00:51:01.760 let out on a global stage.
00:51:04.600 So at the news conference, they're not interested in gallstones.
00:51:07.440 What they were interested in, of course, was his lymphoma.
00:51:10.080 I'm going to this news conference.
00:51:11.580 I don't know whether he's got stage one disease, whether he's got stage three disease.
00:51:15.260 And I'm sort of in a quandary.
00:51:17.080 And I don't want to release too much information.
00:51:19.200 People are saying, well, he may, if you say too much, he may want to go back one day to
00:51:22.740 take over Iran, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
00:51:25.140 Okay.
00:51:25.460 We know at least that it's in his, it's in his lymph nodes and his neck and in his spleen.
00:51:29.500 I think most chemotherapists and throughout the world would assume that this is considered
00:51:33.720 relatively widespread lymphoma.
00:51:35.640 But I said at the news conference, if you need chemotherapy, good medical practice would suggest that you stay near your doctors.
00:51:43.080 And then someone asked me, how long was the how long was the therapy?
00:51:46.160 And I said, I don't make political decisions, but if I had to make a medical decision, I would insist on his being in the United States.
00:51:51.800 If he's under my care for the next six months, at least, or perhaps a year and a half. 0.85
00:51:58.240 The next day, November 4th, after hearing the Shah was to stay in America for six months or more,
00:52:03.120 Iranian students stormed the US embassy in Tehran for the final time and held
00:52:08.240 US citizens and diplomats captive the American embassy in Tehran is in the 1.00
00:52:12.980 hands of Muslim students tonight I have received assurances that they will be 1.00
00:52:16.880 so it's that happened because the Islamic so we saw that in the in a
00:52:23.960 previous documentary guys we've watched several now I can't remember which
00:52:27.200 documentary was but in one of the previous documentaries they said that
00:52:33.120 the reason that the students stormed the embassy is because the islamic clerics um in the
00:52:39.920 universities were telling them to go um go and and take hostages right they didn't mention that here
00:52:48.640 oh you know what that was in the documentary we watched about the 1979 hostage crisis
00:52:53.680 um so yeah uh for for i think that was was that november four we watched that one but
00:52:59.280 you know it's going to be in the same playlist as this one um but if you're if you guys are
00:53:03.680 interested in kind of doing like a deep dive on the 1979 um hostage crisis definitely go back and
00:53:10.640 watch that one as well um because that one we watch a one-hour documentary that is dedicated
00:53:16.240 only to to the hostage crisis he kept safe and uh and well the administration's problem is no one
00:53:23.280 knows whom to blame for the takeover of the embassy in fact i was accused by one wag that
00:53:29.360 said i was responsible for the uh capture of the u.s embassy because when they heard i said six
00:53:35.120 months they thought there was going to be six months of of conspiracies going on in the united
00:53:38.960 states uh to put the shaw back into control and they took over the embassy do you see like you
00:53:48.160 see how they're like treating americans and then you know today right today you have people like
00:53:52.720 tucker carlson who are claiming that iran you know we're not the iran the islamic republic
00:53:59.440 is not the enemy of americans the next time someone says that like the islamic republic
00:54:04.640 is not a problem um just remind them okay what about the what about the american hostage crisis 0.60
00:54:10.400 right so why did carter allow the shah to enter the u.s when he knew americans would be held
00:54:16.960 hostage in iran there's an interview on me the press where he describes before allowing the shah
00:54:22.320 and going to the iranian government and getting their insurance that that they would step in
00:54:26.080 because he assumed at that point the embassy would be overrun which i didn't realize until
00:54:29.920 we're looking at this further that he thought well this will have certainly this will happen again
00:54:33.600 and can you guarantee me that my americans will be safe and they they assured him that
00:54:38.560 they would step in and then for the first time in history they didn't 0.68
00:54:46.960 wow so so these islamists called the american embassy the den of corruption right like these 0.87
00:54:58.800 are the people that tucker carlson wants you to think um are normal people uh that can be
00:55:03.760 negotiated right right these are the people that jimmy carter brought in right and then they
00:55:08.320 immediately turned around and stabbed all americans in the back and you know they're calling you guys 0.90
00:55:14.160 you know a den of spies or a den of you know corruption or you know whatever other islamist 0.99
00:55:19.520 jihadi nonsense these people put out there the taking of u.s hostages conveniently gave 0.86
00:55:30.160 president carter justification to evoke the emergency economic powers act iranian assets
00:55:35.120 were frozen and sanctions were placed on the government of iran that still stand today
00:55:39.200 the sanctions did nothing but angered the hostage takers so by this time the ball was
00:55:44.820 certainly in their court god like i you know even just like hearing his voice like makes me want to 0.98
00:55:57.280 like he's such a disgusting man guys like you don't understand how disgusting he and like all 0.99
00:56:07.900 his like Islamic clerics are like this this man right he's literally a pedophile he actually wrote 0.99
00:56:13.800 a book um and in that book he like basically explained how it's okay for a man to um marry 0.94
00:56:21.220 an infant girl um as long as he doesn't have like you know actual you know do the deed until the
00:56:28.540 girl is like nine or something but but he can do other things to the infant and it's allowable
00:56:33.540 because he's married the infant, right? 0.97
00:56:36.400 Like, that's how sick these people are. 1.00
00:56:38.320 They're literally all, like, disgusting pedophiles. 1.00
00:56:42.980 The Iranians set out their conditions for the release of the hostages. 1.00
00:56:47.880 They wanted a public apology from the United States 0.71
00:56:51.060 about meddling in its domestic affairs
00:56:53.160 and a commitment not to do so in the future,
00:56:55.260 and then they wanted the Shah returned for trial. 0.70
00:56:57.220 These are the four conditions. 0.62
00:56:58.940 An unfreezing of assets, Iranian assets, by the United States.
00:57:01.600 a cancelling of claims against Iran by the United States, the return of the Shah's wealth,
00:57:06.600 and a pledge of non-interference by the United States in Iranian internal affairs,
00:57:10.800 with a stipulation that all four conditions must be fulfilled, that word is fulfilled,
00:57:15.440 and not merely accepted by the United States to win the release of the hostages.
00:57:19.600 But the Iranian assets were spread all over the place.
00:57:22.940 The Federal Reserve had a big chunk of the frozen Iranian assets,
00:57:26.560 $1.3 billion in securities and another billion dollars worth in gold.
00:57:30.640 This was the easiest to get back since it was under government control.
00:57:33.960 The U.S. Treasury also had Iranian assets,
00:57:36.280 $400 million worth on deposits for American military equipment
00:57:39.320 that was paid for by the Shah but never delivered.
00:57:42.040 This sum is a source of the controversial payments made
00:57:44.560 to the Islamic government of Iran by the Obama administration.
00:57:48.440 Financial institutions in this country also had a lot of Iranian money,
00:57:51.800 more than a billion dollars worth.
00:57:53.540 Most of it was immediately taken by the banks
00:57:55.380 to offset loans made to the Shah that weren't being paid.
00:57:58.520 Foreign branches of American banks had the largest amount, $4 billion worth, mostly held at the Chase Manhattan-London branch.
00:58:05.540 Freezing that money was especially contentious because European banking laws did not allow the government freezing of assets to offset business losses.
00:58:13.380 Finally, U.S. corporations had frozen Iranian money, $500 million worth, which Iran never gained access to.
00:58:20.000 As for outstanding loans or claims against the frozen assets, they totaled nearly $10 billion. 0.55
00:58:24.480 dollars that's roughly 50 billion in today's dollars but no one knew for sure the shah's
00:58:31.200 wealth was the second part of the financial deal to get the hostages back the islamic government
00:58:35.600 wanted that money too by some estimates it ranged in the billions of dollars with only
00:58:40.560 about a tenth of that physically located in this country the u.s had no legal right to touch that
00:58:44.880 money the financial aspects of the hostage crisis were never publicly discussed
00:59:06.320 there were at least 275 lawsuits aimed at getting iranian money
00:59:09.600 The United States government at that time was convinced that the Shah had to leave the
00:59:19.800 United States, and I think the Shah himself said to ensure the fact that the hostages
00:59:27.040 were not endangered, he knew that he had to leave.
00:59:29.920 They told him, you are not welcome anymore, your visa has expired.
00:59:33.160 Frantically, they began to look for another place that he might go, again, that where came up, and again, the delay in treatment.
00:59:45.380 The Shah thought he would be allowed back in Mexico.
00:59:48.520 Mexican people have told President López Obrador, if we are not good to treat him, we are not good to rescue him. 0.91
00:59:56.740 The risk posed by the Shah's presence in the U.S. was such that President Carter
01:00:00.960 sent his chief of staff, Hamilton Jordan, in an exhaustive search for possible countries to admit
01:00:05.740 the Shah. They began negotiations with Panama, but in the meantime, they decided that they should go
01:00:13.540 to an air base in Texas, where he and the Queen were allowed to establish their quarters.
01:00:20.620 The transferal from New York to Lackland was arranged under tight security. The confined
01:00:25.640 quarters the psychiatric wing of the military base finally generated a vocal
01:00:29.960 complaint by the Queen ironically the ill treatment and misdiagnosis of the shot
01:00:34.640 up to that point or afterwards did not warrant such an outward display from her
01:00:38.400 but meanwhile the spleen became larger the blood count became worse is and it
01:00:45.200 was evident that his spleen had to come out the main concern was to get a shot
01:00:48.740 of the US then they went to Iranians to to give it words of killing and one 0.92
01:00:54.260 American every 24 hours. Arrangements were made to fly him to Panama with his entourage and he was 0.93
01:01:01.320 flown to Contadora Island. The Shah was led in with the understanding that the reason for his 0.93
01:01:09.440 visit was medical and for humanitarian purposes only. After the taking of the American hostages,
01:01:15.600 medical or humanitarian grounds did not warrant his presence in the U.S.
01:01:24.260 With his pride injured, the fallen monarch arrived in Panama City and was flown by helicopter
01:01:36.120 to the Pacific resort island of Contadora, 35 miles southwest of the capital.
01:01:43.600 The king and queen found comfortable respite in the vacation home of former Panamanian
01:01:47.500 ambassador to the United States.
01:01:51.260 He was given refuge in Panama because the Americans couldn't find any place to send
01:01:55.380 him.
01:01:56.380 And you remember that Carter and Torrijos signed the Canal Treaty.
01:01:59.620 So General Torrijos felt he owed Carter a favor. 0.58
01:02:04.380 And that was the favor that was done, to accept the Shah in Panama. 0.58
01:02:08.340 Diplomats speculate that Washington wants the Shah to remain here in Panama until the
01:02:12.480 hostage question is settled.
01:02:15.440 We were informed by Dr. Carlos Garcia that the Shah was going to have an operation because
01:02:20.020 Dr. Garcia and Dr. Rios, Adán Ríos, had been taking care of the shock.
01:02:25.040 And his blood count was very low and that he needed to have his spleen out because it was destroying his blood cells.
01:02:32.760 Dr. Keen came down and initially thought that he would be treated at Gorgas Hospital, which was in the Panama Canal zone and was an American administrative hospital.
01:02:44.300 The Panamanians felt that he could be treated as well as in a Panamanian hospital.
01:02:48.220 And so the next morning, they called the Gorgas Army Hospital director and asked for the Shah to be transferred.
01:02:55.240 Of course, it was denied because the American government did not want the Shah anywhere near any American facility
01:03:02.360 or any American doctor or anything that smelled USA to protect the hostages in Tehran.
01:03:09.880 We were so shocked by this question of hostages that I even volunteered to leave New York Hospital
01:03:14.840 or when I was under treatment to eventually help solve this problem and this time in panama they
01:03:21.880 wanted to do the surgery and the physician in panama wanted to do that they asked let us do it
01:03:29.560 but ashraf his sister he said no i want an american physician to do this we had prepared to do the
01:03:36.120 surgery on a sunday morning very early also we had negotiated through the american embassy
01:03:42.360 and the U.S. Army to have a blood separator sent to Panama. At that time, that was a very
01:03:46.920 new type of equipment with Dr. Gene Hester, who was a hematologist in Houston, and they had about
01:03:53.400 10 U.S. soldiers of his blood type set up there, just fresh blood. The aim was processing large
01:03:59.640 volumes of normal donor blood to collect and concentrate sufficient granulocytes
01:04:04.280 for replacement therapy on leukemia patients, a technique Dr. Hester had been involved in
01:04:08.840 developing since the early 70s so we seem to have everything going very well when all of a sudden
01:04:16.200 we got an article from new york where dr keen had stated that cha would be admitted that weekend to
01:04:22.360 the panamanian hospital for a splenectomy and then on wednesday dr debakey made a statement
01:04:28.760 to the press that he was coming because nobody in panama knew how to take care of his spleen
01:04:33.000 Dr. Keene decided that Dr. DeBakey should be a surgeon rather than the Panamanian surgeon.
01:04:41.700 But Dr. DeBakey was not a spleen surgeon.
01:04:44.720 He was a very noted and deservedly noted cardiovascular surgeon, world famous.
01:04:51.940 They just went by the name.
01:04:54.420 They just went for the prestige.
01:04:56.740 They just go for the, you know, you know what?
01:04:58.920 My gallbrother was took out by Debeke. 0.93
01:05:03.040 Typical Ben Keene.
01:05:04.020 I'm going to get the biggest name I can get.
01:05:06.640 That's pure and simple Ben Keene.
01:05:08.520 I said, for God's sake, why they chose him?
01:05:11.160 He's not the man for this procedure, just like that.
01:05:14.280 But I knew that nobody going to tell him,
01:05:17.960 you know what, Dr. Debeke, please don't go.
01:05:19.420 This is not your job.
01:05:20.860 Why, when you being in that position,
01:05:23.700 you accept to go to a different country,
01:05:27.500 which is not a good idea, to do an operation that you haven't done maybe in 30 years or
01:05:34.640 40. He was a big man in abdominal surgery in the 40s. And then in the 60s, he became
01:05:40.060 the top, one of the top surgeons in cardiovascular surgery.
01:05:43.660 Now, a good cardiac surgeon can do abdominal surgery, but why not get a guy who does...
01:05:48.440 Yeah, Major, you're absolutely right. Like a cardiologist working on a spleen,
01:05:54.420 um that's definitely a hit like just from like listening to this it's obvious that um
01:06:02.020 there were things happening behind the scenes and they were trying to deliberately um
01:06:07.620 injure the shah um and and to kill him you know unfortunately they were successful in doing that
01:06:12.500 like everything everything that's happening here is just absolutely like it's one medical 0.98
01:06:17.060 malpractice case after another it's 100 a hit splenectomies all the time dr king says in his
01:06:24.420 book that he had a brainstorming called dr debakey because dr debakey had operated on many world
01:06:33.220 celebrities and the the shaw deserved a celebrity surgeon dr debakey was under the impression that
01:06:40.740 And that he had been hired by Benke and probably Rockefeller to come to Panama to do the surgery.
01:06:47.300 He's such a famous man that he thought that, you know, all doors would be open to him right away.
01:06:51.900 And that wasn't the way the U.S. Embassy and our government had planned it.
01:06:56.380 Because he's not allowed to practice in Panama. He's not a Panamanian.
01:06:59.000 But our government issued a special ruling saying that he could work as an observer and a consultant to our team.
01:07:06.000 And with all the fanfare and noise, Dr. DeBakey comes to Panama. I come here to operate on the Shah.
01:07:14.180 How do you feel if you were a Panamanian surgeon? 0.80
01:07:16.740 We had told Dr. Keene that he was welcome to join our team.
01:07:21.460 What happened was he got off the plane with his team.
01:07:24.940 There was a certain arrogance there. I think they felt they had been upended all this time.
01:07:29.460 No, a surgeon, with self-respect, will allow himself to let somebody from another country 0.97
01:07:35.940 come and do the operation for him.
01:07:38.540 If you're in charge, there's only can be one chief, one captain of the chief.
01:07:43.040 Dr. King was furious.
01:07:44.240 I said, Dr. Garcia de Paredes, but Dr. DeBakey goes all over the world operating on people.
01:07:49.060 And I told him, this is not Afghanistan, you know.
01:07:51.160 settled on a miniature chair in a foreign land far removed from the peacock throne
01:07:59.900 once again the king's indecisiveness had created a vacuum for others to make important decisions
01:08:05.540 about his affairs i think i've tried about 38 600 pans this one is definitely my favorite i've
01:08:12.720 watched a lot of documentaries on teflon and they scare the shit out of me this is toxin free
01:08:18.680 And it went back and forth between Dr. Flan Tran, DeBakey, Keane, the Panamanian surgeons, to where would the operation take place and who would do it, when it would be done. Meanwhile, the spleen was getting worse.
01:08:35.320 Dr. King told the Shah in Panama that they didn't want to have the operation in Panama
01:08:50.000 because he didn't trust the Panamanian surgeons.
01:08:52.060 And he was afraid that the Iranians would pay General Torrijos for us to kill him during
01:08:58.620 the surgery. 0.54
01:08:59.680 And General Torrijos had told us, if the Shah dies, you're all going to jail. 0.66
01:09:03.820 And Ben Keene was there manipulating all the way around.
01:09:08.820 In terms of the facilities that I found there, I recommended that the operation not be done there because I felt it would increase the risk.
01:09:15.820 And Dr. DeBakey never even went to see our operating rooms or any installation in the hospital.
01:09:21.820 He never, he just came and we met in the library and that's where we had our meeting, that's the only time he was in our hospital.
01:09:28.820 how can he say all these things he never even walked in to see our recovery rooms or or anything
01:09:34.820 meanwhile the government of iran had arranged for a this is crazy it's like the the doctors 0.73
01:09:41.540 are like you know having a meltdown meanwhile the shah is like literally dying this is
01:09:49.780 is so frustrating.
01:09:52.540 Lawyer from France to come to Panama City
01:09:58.160 to arrange for the extradition with the arrest of the Shah. 0.61
01:10:01.840 I believe that the Republic of Panama
01:10:06.880 as a soldier is trying to contribute
01:10:13.280 to the PCO solution to the whole crisis.
01:10:15.940 And one of the general, Torrijos, very, very important consultants and assistants, went to Tehran.
01:10:23.520 Adding to the failing health, the Shah now had an extradition and a possible firing squad in Iran hanging over his neck.
01:10:32.300 And when I interviewed the Panamanian lawyer, Juan Materno Vázquez, who had been a Supreme Court judge,
01:10:39.760 and he told me, you know, we had arranged to have the Shah placed under house arrest.
01:10:44.920 to have the trial, to have the hostages immediately transferred to the Swiss Embassy.
01:10:51.920 And once the trial was over, they would be released.
01:10:58.920 On the Saturday, the two lawyers from the Iranian government arrived in Panama.
01:11:03.920 They were going to place in our courts the file for extradition on the Monday.
01:11:08.920 And he left on a Sunday, the day before.
01:11:14.920 Queen Farah called her friend in Egypt, the wife of Sadat, and she said, come to Egypt.
01:11:34.060 Relieved to be escaping Panama and Torijo, the Shah declined Sadat's offer of the use
01:11:39.100 of the presidential plane.
01:11:40.820 Instead, for his trip to Egypt, he follows American advice in chartering an Evergreen
01:11:45.220 jet, a former CIA operative airliner.
01:11:48.260 As soon as the Shah's plane left the tarmac, Hamilton Jordan and the Carter administration
01:11:52.500 made one last effort to negotiate the freedom of the hostages via the French lawyer Brigitte
01:11:57.320 in extraditing the Shah.
01:11:59.740 Khomeini had made it clear to his people that he did not want the Shah to reach Egypt.
01:12:04.180 As a final sign of appeasement, Americans forced an unscheduled landing of the Shah's
01:12:08.720 plane in the small Portuguese island of Osoros in the Atlantic for alleged refueling.
01:12:14.400 Hamilton Jordan and his counterpart Botsade continued discussing the Shah's fate.
01:12:18.960 Everything was in place for a new extradition process.
01:12:21.720 But at the last minute, Botsade informed Jordan that the deal was not approved.
01:12:26.120 The negotiations fell apart.
01:12:31.520 After a six-hour delay, the sick, feverish king was allowed to proceed, oblivious to
01:12:36.800 the danger that had just passed, and helpless in stopping what was about to come. 0.79
01:12:41.420 No, I'm pretty sure the Shah was not oblivious to the danger that had just passed. 0.86
01:12:47.420 He literally left Panama because he knew what was happening, and he left before they could 0.91
01:12:53.560 extradite him back to the Islamic Republic.
01:13:06.800 with you gentlemen and ladies yes i love how the president you know sadat is just like yes like 0.57
01:13:16.560 he's basically telling the reporters to like you know shut up um sadat was a good friend of
01:13:23.520 of the shah and you know guys i can tell you um you always know who your friends are because
01:13:30.640 they're the ones who stick with you during the most difficult parts of your life right like
01:13:37.980 everyone wants to be your friend when things are going well and you know you you have a lot of
01:13:42.540 power or control or whatever the case might be um but your true friends are those who are there with
01:13:50.520 you in your time of need remember that always guys that's such an important important life lesson and
01:13:58.360 We're seeing it right here with the Shah of Iran, where in his time of need, it was Anwar Sadat and basically Richard Nixon, who had his back.
01:14:09.240 And that was pretty much it.
01:14:11.080 And unfortunately, Richard Nixon was not in power at that time.
01:14:16.200 President Sadat and his wife were there to greet the Shah and the Queen.
01:14:20.580 They were very amazed at how long and thin the Shah looked.
01:14:26.040 The Shah had nowhere else to go. 0.68
01:14:28.360 One way or another, Egypt would be his final stop. 0.88
01:14:33.100 Dr. DeBakey came three days later, ready for operation.
01:14:41.740 And the splenectomy was scheduled and done.
01:14:46.160 It took about 80 minutes.
01:14:48.560 The spleen came out easily.
01:14:51.400 And shortly after the operation, the shawl looked quite well.
01:14:55.360 So, in effect, what you're saying is that the operation for the removal of the spleen
01:14:58.620 went well, and if he now continues to respond to chemotherapy, he will continue to live
01:15:02.760 at a fairly normal rate.
01:15:04.160 Exactly.
01:15:05.160 And he's done extremely well following the operation.
01:15:07.160 Really, I think his progress has been much more rapid than we had hoped for.
01:15:11.760 Than you had hoped for or that you had planned?
01:15:14.920 Because all of you guys were basically planning to murder him through malpractice.
01:15:19.760 Dr. DeBakey was awarded the Order of the Egyptian Empire by President Sadat for his operation.
01:15:29.940 But within a couple of weeks, a Shah began to have pain in his chest, develop fevers, chill, and he was not doing well.
01:15:40.840 So, Captain, the most famous show in the world, and I've done a splinectomy in 40 years.
01:15:44.300 Dr. DeBakey had decided to leave his patient without a drain.
01:15:50.300 He would drain it.
01:15:53.300 Oh, definitely.
01:15:54.300 I would have put a drain in because there was a hole that we're leaving.
01:15:56.300 The spleen was about that big.
01:15:58.300 Usually when we do a splenectomy, especially in cases like this, we leave a drain to make sure that everything is able to drain out which doesn't belong there.
01:16:09.300 especially since there's a very close relationship to the pancreas.
01:16:15.300 The pancreas is the thing you have to pay a good deal of attention to
01:16:21.300 when you do a splenectomy.
01:16:23.300 The tail of the pancreas, the end of the pancreas is usually intimately...
01:16:28.300 So even this surgery was botched.
01:16:30.300 The guy didn't leave a drain in it like he was supposed to.
01:16:33.300 Oh, my God.
01:16:35.300 Do you see how they like this was a hit job on the shop?
01:16:38.300 were all conspiring to murder him stuck into what they call the hilum on the spleen any surgical
01:16:44.060 teaching tells you that when you go in there to remove a spleen you have to take extreme care 0.97
01:16:50.700 to avoid the pre-black friday friends and 1.00
01:16:56.940 guys this is like a this is a dark dark and shameful mark on um on iranian history 0.52
01:17:03.340 An avoidable injury to the pancreas caused by the carelessness of his surgeon is added 0.84
01:17:26.780 to the Shah's list of complications.
01:17:30.100 So I fly into Egypt and I see the Shah and I speak to the Egyptian doctors and they tell
01:17:35.940 me that he nicked the pancreas and he was running fever.
01:17:39.260 I said, you must start him on intravenous antibiotics.
01:17:42.440 They said, his majesty doesn't want intravenous antibiotics.
01:17:45.320 He wants oral antibiotics.
01:17:46.480 I said, I don't care what his majesty wants.
01:17:49.040 I'm telling you, you've got to give him intravenous antibiotics.
01:17:52.120 In this most crucial juncture in the Shah's health, the sole medical decision maker and
01:17:56.760 self-professed doctor to the Shah, Ben Keen, suddenly leaves the scene and returns to New York.
01:18:01.720 In his absence, Flandron observes that no one is inclined to accept the diagnosis of subphrenic
01:18:06.360 abscess, not even Dr. Coleman. I was worried to death that he had a subphrenic abscess.
01:18:11.640 And DeBakey called and assured me, he went back to see him, he says he does not have a subphrenic
01:18:16.440 abscess. Now he was on steroids. They put him on steroids, which masks, this is not what you do.
01:18:20.840 I mean, it masked an acute abdomen.
01:18:24.840 When the Shah developed a schizophrenic abscess after the splenectomy,
01:18:29.840 that was due to splenic injury. That was not recognized.
01:18:33.840 Conflicting reports are coming out of Cairo, Egypt, on the health of the deposed Shah of Iran.
01:18:37.840 The newspaper Al Aram says his condition is deteriorating,
01:18:40.840 but his doctor says he's better.
01:18:42.840 An official spokesman, Robert Omeo, seems optimistic.
01:18:45.840 The fever and the infection is being dealt with antibiotics.
01:18:51.840 That normally is a slow process, but the doctors tell me it's moving along.
01:18:56.840 Well, now, of course, the spleen is removed. His blood has returned to normal.
01:19:00.840 The bone marrow is normal in its activity, and they can resume the chemotherapy that they've been using.
01:19:06.840 When Dr. DeBakey said he did not have a satranic abscess, he was not operated on, but he got worse and worse.
01:19:16.480 His fevers got higher and higher. Pain got worse and worse.
01:19:20.160 His ego would not let him to admit.
01:19:25.220 According to Dr. DeBakey's account, the Shah's bone marrow and blood were back to normal, to the point that he was ready to continue chemotherapy.
01:19:31.860 Now, the gold standard therapy at that time was CHOP, and we had developed a therapy called
01:19:36.360 Copland.
01:19:37.360 And you use many of the same drugs, but the dosing is different.
01:19:40.700 They're all good standard therapy, but you cannot mix the two. 0.94
01:19:44.100 And if I remember correctly, the Egyptians tried to mix the two. 0.99
01:19:48.540 At this stage, a massive infection caused by Dr. DeBakey's splenectomy, his negligence 0.99
01:19:53.660 in not leaving a drain, injuring the pancreas, using steroids, which mask the infection,
01:19:59.500 The mixing of chemo drugs and two months delay in treating the subphrenic abscess
01:20:03.360 are the main reasons for the Shah's deteriorating health and not his cancer. 0.78
01:20:07.560 They killed him, right?
01:20:08.820 So it was the medical malpractice that murdered the Shah, not his cancer.
01:20:14.720 His cancer was something that he could have lived with.
01:20:18.640 It was something that he had been living with for a long time.
01:20:22.560 But it was this doctor just constantly, like one issue after another,
01:20:27.200 one medical malpractice after another, um, jeez. Cancer. And finally, Dr. Flan Dran called a
01:20:37.900 specialist in France by the name of Dr. Flanier, who specialized strangely enough in complications
01:20:44.180 of surgery, to come to Egypt and operate on the show. They had to call the French surgeons to go
01:20:50.660 and do a correct problem. It's sad. And what I heard later from one of the Egyptian doctors was
01:20:56.880 they were really, really very upset with the French, and they told Sadat about it.
01:21:01.280 And Sadat, being a clever man, came over and saw the Shah, and he said to the Egyptian doctors,
01:21:05.760 can't you see this man is dying? He said, let them take the heat for it.
01:21:12.480 Dr. Fanye operated on the Shah almost immediately, drained the sub-frenic abscess,
01:21:18.880 and then he drained approximately a liter and a half of pus.
01:21:26.880 But he had really suffered from this infection for a long, long time.
01:21:38.540 And in July of 1980, he finally lapsed into a coma and died.
01:21:50.760 killed him guys like they they deliberately um mishandled his medical treatment this is a hundred
01:21:57.880 percent um intentional and deliberate medical malpractice and that's what caused his death it
01:22:03.960 that wasn't the cancer.
01:22:28.760 I think that he suffered for much too long with the subchronic abscess, could have been
01:22:33.460 drained a long time before that, but because there were too many doctors involved, too
01:22:39.860 many interpretations, he endured much too much for too long.
01:22:48.500 The whole thing is a book of my practice from the point of view of hematology, oncology,
01:23:07.500 surgery, handling the complications.
01:23:11.380 What happened here is you had too many cooks spoiling the broth, there were huge political
01:23:15.220 ramifications.
01:23:16.660 You've got to have a captain at the helm and a captain at the helm whose only agenda is to get that patient better.
01:23:30.740 It's sad that a person with so much power, so much money, couldn't get the care that he needed
01:23:38.000 because of his political needs and the political situation of the American government and the Iranian government.
01:23:45.840 So Jimmy Carter basically murdered the Shah of Iran.
01:23:49.120 One other reason why we hate Jimmy Carter.
01:23:50.720 And everybody else involved.
01:23:53.280 Through some what seemed to be some small medical decisions that it changed the
01:24:00.160 consequences of that revolution in U.S. relationships with that part of the world.
01:24:03.760 It wasn't so much, I think, the death of the Shah as it was the way his health issues were handled. 0.74
01:24:08.160 The Shah got into a position of where he was almost never seeing the reality of his sickness,
01:24:17.440 of his relationships, of his positions, of the people who were taking care of him.
01:24:21.680 And it had to result in a personal disaster for him.
01:24:26.000 Muhammad Reza Pahlavi died on the morning of July 27th, 1980, at 9.50 a.m., aged 60 years old.
01:24:42.300 He was buried at the Al-Rifa.
01:24:43.840 He was so young, like 60. 60 is not that old, guys. 60 is nothing.
01:24:48.760 Fai Mosque in Cairo, the same moussolem where years earlier, his predecessor and father Reza Shah was initially buried in exile. 0.71
01:25:11.480 The problem is not going to go away by itself. I always recommend Sensor 9. 0.62
01:25:15.800 with liberty flame collection taste takes many
01:25:19.380 liberty
01:25:22.040 yeah bijan you make a good point so bijan is watching from the x live stream and he says
01:25:29.740 it was nice to watch how carter had to fight the cancer for so many for so many years yeah i mean 0.99
01:25:34.940 karma karma came back and bit jimmy carter in his in his evil ass 0.98
01:25:39.620 on january 16th 1979 the shah left iran for the last time 10 days prior to his departure the heads 0.98
01:25:55.640 of the four great western powers the united states britain germany and france met in the small
01:26:00.520 caribbean island of guadalupe to decide the future of the king of kings and his nation iran after all
01:26:06.520 This was the year that oil contracts were to expire.
01:26:36.520 Lord David Owen, then British Foreign Secretary, writes that after leaving office, the French
01:26:42.480 Foreign Minister told him that the French were indeed aware of the Shah's diagnosis.
01:26:54.300 President Carter involved himself in unsteady game of musical allies and facilitated the
01:26:59.500 toppling of the already unstable monarch in favor of political Islam. 0.73
01:27:04.380 This was all achieved under the banner of democracy, human rights, and the Iranian people's
01:27:08.940 right to self-determination.
01:27:11.440 But for Carter and the US, there was blowback.
01:27:14.240 The president...
01:27:15.240 Yeah, except that wasn't self-determination. 1.00
01:27:18.700 That was the Islamists and the communists taking over and then forcing the rest of Iranians 0.94
01:27:24.640 to submit to them. 0.93
01:27:26.620 And ever since then, anyone who's spoken out is brutally murdered by the Islamic dictatorship 0.99
01:27:32.160 in the name of Allah and Islam. 0.93
01:27:33.880 It was not self-determination, guys.
01:27:36.120 1979 was not a revolution. 0.88
01:27:38.620 It was like an Islamic coup d'etat. 0.82
01:27:41.660 Just go and watch the documentaries in this playlist. 0.96
01:27:43.960 I have so many of them.
01:27:45.100 ...was also consumed in the inferno,
01:27:47.000 more than any of his co-conspirers from Guadalupe.
01:27:50.660 Students think that Iran is our enemy
01:27:53.140 because they're building nuclear weapons. 1.00
01:27:55.640 And I find that interesting.
01:27:57.300 And a lot of it stems as well from, you know,
01:27:58.980 George W. Bush's speech in The Axis of Evil.
01:28:01.440 And so many for, you know, the year after,
01:28:03.880 iran is not the ally so oh my gosh this is really frustrating when you have these like 0.96
01:28:08.520 non-iranians try to like whitewash the islamic republic iran is not the ally the islamic 0.98
01:28:14.120 dictatorship is the sorry iran is not the enemy the islamic regime is the enemy and yes you should 0.99

01:28:27.720 are trying to build a nuclear weapon right like be very afraid take that as a very serious threat 1.00
01:28:34.160 take that from me someone who has experienced living in an islamic dictatorship who knows what 0.96
01:28:40.800 they're like who knows how they think and take it from any other iranian in the chat who's warning 0.99
01:28:45.160 you guys it's so incredibly frustrating when these non-iranians try to downplay the very real and 0.98
01:28:52.100 severe threat of the islamic dictatorship after that at least maybe even longer every time those 1.00
01:28:58.260 three countries were mentioned the access right next to it like it it's it's like some idiotic 0.99
01:29:03.380 white woman who's literally like blaming george w bush right so she's basically saying that 0.99
01:29:08.660 because george w bush included um iran and the axis of evil that's why iranians um hate america 1.00
01:29:15.620 okay so then what about the 1979 hostage crisis you stupid woman god i'm so sick and tired of 0.99
01:29:22.820 these like woke academic progressives right who are like they're so anti-imperialist in their 1.00
01:29:30.100 ideology that they are literally whitewashing a brutal islamic dictatorship right and and and this
01:29:36.500 is where the whole like um failed narrative right like the fake narrative of oh the people in the 0.53

01:29:55.140 whether or not america exists right like like this notion of islamic terrorism has existed for 1400 1.00
01:30:02.420 years since the invention of islam right and so now for some like stupid american woman to come 1.00
01:30:09.140 and be like oh they hate us because of george bush is so idiotic and it's so frustrating 1.00
01:30:14.980 so that you get these kids that are very impressionable ages who just think they've 0.99
01:30:18.340 always been our enemy they had no idea that we were ever allies they had no idea that there was
01:30:21.620 something yeah we were allies when the shah was in power okay the iran of today is not the iran 0.91
01:30:29.700 of 19 of before 1979 the iran of today is occupied iran it is occupied by an islamic dictatorship 0.66
01:30:38.660 that yells death to america you can never be allies with the islamic regime never ever ever 0.76
01:30:45.940 and if you guys watch my um my earlier live streams right the ones where i go live at 12 0.78
01:30:52.340 noon eastern right because this is like my evening show where we watch documentaries but in my earlier
01:30:58.340 show i actually talk about modern issues of the day relating to iran the middle east you know 1.00
01:31:04.180 islamic terrorism and i've explained over and over again you cannot negotiate with the islamic
01:31:09.700 dictatorship the islamic dictatorship does not want to be your friend the islamic dictatorship 0.99
01:31:14.580 wants to overthrow your government right and take over and turn it into an islamic caliphate 1.00
01:31:21.460 you cannot negotiate with these people you have no idea the kinds of things that they say 0.99
01:31:26.740 um in in arabic or in farsi right so it's incredibly ignorant for this woman to say
01:31:35.220 right when george w bush calls iran the axis of evil students don't know that before we used to 0.99
01:31:40.340 be allies like that that is like the most idiotic take i have ever heard in my life ever ever heard 0.97
01:31:47.300 george w bush was 100 right in including iran and the axis of evil because iran is occupied 0.99
01:31:53.380 by islamic dictatorship george w bush was wrong i think in starting the iraq war if anything he
01:31:58.740 should have gone after iran right he should have gone after the real threat the real threat was
01:32:02.900 the islamic republic not iraq that's a whole other you know story and you know not not the time and 0.88
01:32:09.060 place for that but george w bush correctly identified the evil it was it was iran which 0.90
01:32:15.780 is occupied right it's occupied by an islamic dictatorship that yells death to america so it 1.00
01:32:22.420 is incredibly idiotic for this woman to think that people who yell death to america and take 0.99
01:32:29.780 american citizens hostage can be negotiated with i'm here to tell you as an iranian right because 1.00
01:32:36.500 i've dealt with the people who are occupying my country i'm here telling you you cannot negotiate
01:32:43.060 with them you cannot trust them they are not here to be your friends right they don't hate
01:32:49.700 you because of what america did they hate you because of who you are as an american they hate
01:32:55.540 the very notion of your existence so you could try to appease them all you want they view appeasement
01:33:04.180 as weakness okay weakness they will take your appeasement walk all over you right and eventually
01:33:12.820 murder you do you think this woman do you think this woman could just like walk into iran into
01:33:18.020 occupied iran right now looking the way she is and be like i'm here as a friend right do you know
01:33:23.300 what they would do to her like it's it's insanity these like these woke liberal leftist women
01:33:31.780 right gosh rant over particular there was a set of decisions made in a very brief period of time
01:33:40.260 that have led us to where we are now with these decades now of sanctions that have affected our
01:33:44.500 relationships well in the wrong relationship with the rest of the world so she's blaming the united
01:33:50.820 states for ruining the relationship the the only mistake that united states did was electing jimmy
01:33:57.620 carter because jimmy carter then stabbed the shah in the back and jimmy carter helped the the 0.86
01:34:02.980 islamists come into power but everything since then right those are the jihadis and so for her
01:34:09.460 now like so so this is basically like islamic regime talking points like propaganda points
01:34:15.060 right where she's basically blaming the united states right for islamic terrorism and then the
01:34:21.220 islamic terrorists say you know they push the same narrative as well they say well we're terrorists 1.00
01:34:27.060 because of america right it's just it's such an idiotic way to think um this woman is 100 1.00
01:34:34.420 a certified idiot she has no idea what she's talking about but unfortunately people like her 1.00
01:34:39.780 have dominated the narrative right so she's out here literally apologizing for um islamic terrorists 1.00
01:34:47.940 acting as if like she's a so-called expert meanwhile she's never lived a day in iran
01:34:53.060 right she has no idea what's going on but she's just so steeped in her you know
01:34:57.940 know leftist indoctrination or whatever it is in her ivory tower that she's literally
01:35:04.720 blaming islamic terrorism on the united states
01:35:07.920 all right let's finish this off for that matter
01:35:14.620 the carter administration failed to grasp the real meaning of political islam
01:35:22.480 Fast forward 30 years later, President Barack Obama followed the line of his predecessor,
01:35:42.640 Jimmy Carter, in trying to reforge a path of reconciliation between the US and political
01:35:47.680 Islam in Iran. Relations with Iran were the one legacy President Obama pursued vigorously to all
01:35:54.620 ends. But at what price? The price of democracy? The price of human rights? And the price of the
01:36:01.340 Iranian people's right to self-determination? The same idealism and naivety that brought down 1.00
01:36:09.920 the Carter presidency can no longer touch President Obama. However, the impact of his decision to
01:36:15.420 negotiate with the Shia Islamic clergy that hold actual power in Iran, or President Trump's
01:36:20.320 willingness to further pursue this path, will be the real legacy left behind for future generations.
01:36:41.920 So, okay, wait, let's, let's read this part. 0.63
01:36:46.300 good i'm glad queen fada didn't um didn't accept to be part of this shitty documentary good for her
01:37:00.380 good for her um guys i'm giving that like a five i mean i i kind of started out at
01:37:06.620 at a seven because like you know i i try to start out high hopeful so seven um but there's a lot of
01:37:13.340 of like editorialization in there and then like right at the end like that that woman's rant
01:37:19.900 about you know blaming islamic terrorism on the united states i thought that was one of the most 0.99
01:37:24.600 you know it's it's just so frustrating to hear idiotic statements like that um so i don't know 0.98
01:37:31.740 i'm thinking maybe like a five the only reason i would give it a five um is that you know in terms 0.98
01:37:40.520 of describing the the trials and ordeals that the shah went through um in terms of the medical
01:37:49.960 treatment and the medical malpractice i thought that was um very thorough and very well done
01:37:57.720 um that part you know that was just you know factual objective so you know i i did appreciate
01:38:04.040 that part um and you know it did it did um fall in line with um you know what iranians say
01:38:14.840 you know in the iranian documentaries and iranian articles about you know what happened to the shah
01:38:20.040 and how they also say that you know he was basically murdered through medical malpractice
01:38:25.320 um through deliberate medical malpractice so i mean that falls in line with the iranian narrative
01:38:31.480 um but i just i don't like the you know some of the old like that speech at the end just 0.97
01:38:37.800 such a stupid thing such a stupid thing but i'm seeing a lot of like sixes right um i mean i guess 0.85
01:38:44.840 six is fair six is fair so it's like you know proceed with caution maybe proceed with caution 0.99
01:38:53.640 because you know the facts objectively are mostly accurate i mean there were some inaccuracies in
01:38:59.960 the beginning um which we discussed in in part one of this uh of this um you know slip because
01:39:05.480 this is part two so we spoke about that um what do you guys think a six
01:39:14.360 oh i have a comment here um tony says hi thank you for expanding the truth 0.97
01:39:21.000 and showing us how evil islam is and not some muslims i mean i don't i don't agree with that 0.87
01:39:26.200 i don't talk about um religion ever i know a lot of muslims that are very very good people 0.87
01:39:32.520 um some usgov did support islamic crazies in order of power and prophets you are awesome
01:39:39.480 thank you um but i do want to clarify i don't have an issue with muslims um i have an issue 0.52
01:39:46.040 with with political islam and jihad and that's what i speak about um i think religion is something
01:39:51.720 uh very personal um and it should should be personal right you know in your life however
01:39:57.480 you want to practice that's fine um my issue is when um you know especially as an iranian 0.93
01:40:04.520 you know you have the islamic dictatorship which wants to impose their seventh century version of 0.96
01:40:09.880 of sharia law um on us and that's been a horrible problem um for iran so yeah like my focus really 0.99
01:40:17.560 is more on Islamic radicalism and terrorism. And I would encourage a lot of you, if you want 1.00
01:40:25.420 examples of normal Muslim countries, take a look at Morocco. I actually visited Morocco
01:40:33.620 this past summer. Beautiful country, wonderful country. Morocco was like 99.9% Muslim. And yet
01:40:43.420 it's you know everyone is free to wear what they want dress what they want um they even sell
01:40:50.860 alcohol right like they literally sell wine and beer um in restaurants or in you know in in like
01:40:57.500 grocery stores or whatever the case might be um so there's you know there's that and then of course
01:41:02.540 you definitely want to check out the uae as well you know another um like pretty much 100 muslim
01:41:07.980 country uh that is fighting islamic radicalism as well so you know i don't like to go into
01:41:14.780 religion that's really not the focus of this this channel and the focus of of what i'm talking about
01:41:21.260 um yeah yeah 100 so it's it's the it's the islamist ideology 100 it's it's that it's that
01:41:29.260 radical element right um and many muslims have have called out that radical element as well 0.70
01:41:35.500 because you know that radical element when it gets into power right then you have something
01:41:42.540 like the islamic regime in iran right so that that when that radical element takes control 0.78
01:41:47.980 that's when you have hell on earth um so there you go but uh thank you everyone for joining so

01:43:02.320 And as an Iranian, I'm sitting back and I'm going, what the hell? 0.89
01:43:06.600 Because if I stepped foot in occupied Iran today, I would be murdered. 0.97
01:43:12.240 I would be executed for speaking out against the Islamic dictatorship.
01:43:16.020 And yet I've actually traveled to Israel and I was there freely.
01:43:20.800 and i actually never felt more safe in my life than when i visited israel so that's what we're 0.71

01:43:31.600 propaganda um and narrative this islamist narrative has been pushed to the point where now children
