00:00:24.320 Thank you.

00:00:54.320 Thank you.

00:01:24.320 Thank you.

00:01:54.320 Thank you.

00:02:24.320 Thank you.

00:02:54.320 Thank you.

00:03:24.320 Thank you.

00:03:54.320 Thank you.

00:04:24.320 well hello and good afternoon everyone thank you for joining me for i guess an

00:04:50.960 impromptu bonus episode of the Goldie Show because normally I go live Monday to Fridays at noon

00:04:58.620 Eastern. But today is a very special day. Today is the birthday of a very important person, a person

00:05:08.920 that is incredibly beloved by the Iranian people and a person who was really, really done dirty by

00:05:20.300 the islamists and the communists back in the 60s and 70s and uh the person that i'm speaking of

00:05:27.500 is of course none other than his imperial highness uh muhammad reza pahlavi or as i like to call him

00:05:36.620 shahanshah oriamir that's what a lot of iranians call him so today is his birthday um and his

00:05:45.420 birthday also coincides with the birthday of another equally important Iranian figure

00:05:54.220 in our history. And that, of course, is Cyrus the Great. Cyrus the Great, let me pull him up here.

00:06:03.600 So Cyrus the Great is the founder of the Persian Empire. You might have heard about him,

00:06:10.060 uh probably have he's literally known as the king of kings and uh you know he's one of the greatest

00:06:16.700 kings of all time for for many reasons and you know i'll get into that a little bit but um

00:06:22.140 but uh two days from now is the birthday of cyrus the great and i actually had the honor of attending

00:06:30.940 a Cyrus the Great event Friday evening, and the current Shah in exile, Reza Pahlavi II,

00:06:41.620 who is the son of the late Shah of Iran, he was present, and so I had the honor of attending

00:06:48.680 that event while he was there as well, and to honor Cyrus the Great. And why is Cyrus the Great

00:06:55.820 such an important part of Iranian identity and culture? Well, it's because he founded

00:07:03.480 the Persian Empire 2,500 years ago. He united so many people. But more than that, he was not a ruler.

00:07:17.280 He was a leader, if that makes any sense. You know, he wasn't a barbarian. He did not

00:07:23.460 enslaved people yes there was conquering 100 there was conquering most of it was um conquering

00:07:31.780 other empires and civilizations that had taken people hostage and then he would liberate them

00:07:37.700 you know a perfect example of that is when cyrus the great conquered babylon right he conquered

00:07:44.900 babylon um basically claimed it as part of the persian empire however he freed all of the people

00:07:52.500 that had been enslaved by the Babylonians at the time, and he let them live their lives.

00:08:01.500 You know, a really well-known and famous example that the Islamists hate for us to bring up

00:08:07.100 is the Jewish people. Cyrus the Great, the founder of the Persian Empire, when he conquered Babylon,

00:08:13.460 he freed the Jewish people from their Babylonian captivity, and he took them back to the promised

00:08:20.540 land which is israel again this is this is not a religious thing right this is literally historical

00:08:27.020 fact right this isn't like um you know the islamists who claim muhammad flew a donkey to

00:08:33.100 al-axa overnight or something right like this is historical fact that cyrus the great conquered

00:08:37.980 babylon freed the jews from their babylonian enslavement he took them back to the promised

00:08:43.900 land of israel and he helped them to rebuild the second uh the second wall the second temple of

00:08:51.520 jerusalem right and the wailing wall that's there that is a testament to the legacy of cyrus the

00:09:00.200 great that wall there was built with with money funded by the persian empire right and cyrus the

00:09:07.880 great did that not because he had to but because he wanted to because he espoused those qualities

00:09:13.540 And in fact, the Cyrus Cylinder is the first known instance of human rights.

00:09:23.260 So that's one of the reasons why Cyrus the Great is incredibly important and influential

00:09:28.480 and a very important figure to us.

00:09:30.760 And even though today's live stream should not be spicy, it should not be confrontational,

00:09:40.360 it should not be controversial but it is and i'll tell you why the controversy doesn't come from

00:09:47.080 me as an iranian the controversy comes from the islamists who for 1400 years since the arab

00:09:54.920 muslim conquest of persia have tried to erase our iranian identity right um and they don't like the

00:10:04.200 fact that we never assimilated they don't like the fact that we preserved our iranian language right

00:10:12.360 we speak persian um after the arab muslim conquest of persia um our language persian was actually

00:10:22.200 banned for two centuries we were not allowed to speak our own language that is a that was

00:10:27.720 a common tactic that the um arab muslim colonizers did right they would go go to a group of people 0.98

00:10:35.560 oppress them and force them to forget their their tongue their language and just speak arabic and 0.98

00:10:41.480 that's why you see um you know the vast majority of the middle east right is predominantly arabic

00:10:48.280 and there are a lot of various cultures and peoples who have lost the link to their original

00:10:55.880 indigenous language um so they tried to do that with iranians but we were able to revive our

00:11:03.400 language after two centuries because we had um you know some great poets fair dosi was one of

00:11:09.960 them fair dosi is basically the um the iranian equivalent of shakespeare right and he in the

00:11:16.840 literary world he is just as famous as shakespeare so you know any literary historian buff person

00:11:23.640 out there well no fair to see so the reason that what i'm going to share with you and talk to you 0.82

00:11:30.360 about is controversial is because this is this is this is a constant reminder to the islamists that

00:11:40.360 they were not able to erase our iranian identity right the fact that we um you know the fact that

00:11:49.320 the the shah of iran at the time in 1971 he celebrated the 2500 year anniversary of the

00:11:59.400 persian empire right so it was um an an unbroken line of kings and emperors starting from cyrus the

00:12:11.400 the Great, and going all the way to Shahan Shah Aryomeh, the previous Shah of Iran, and

00:12:19.640 it still continues to this day with his son, the Shah in exile, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi

00:12:27.320 II, because, and I spoke about this before, but I forgot to bring this up, he actually

00:12:34.560 swore the oath of monarchy basically he swore the succession oath after his father passed away

00:12:43.860 let me bring it up so this is like a very um a forgotten piece of history that a lot of people 0.91

00:12:54.820 either don't know about or or they've forgotten and of course the islamists try to um ignore this 0.73

00:13:02.660 they tried to gaslight us and pretend like this did not happen but um gotta remove this and i'm 0.87

00:13:11.380 gonna add this so here you go so so the monarchy line is actually unbroken right um so here you

00:13:19.540 can see in 1980 crown prince reza pahlavi the son of the previous shah he took his oath as

00:13:28.020 roi du jour in cairo and that was october 31st 1980 well guys a lot of things seem to happen in

00:13:33.700 october here um but there you go so we actually we still do have an unbroken line of monarchs dating

00:13:42.820 back over 2500 years to the time of cyrus the great um and so you know one of the things you're 0.91

00:13:53.140 going to commonly hear about from from the islamists is you know the shah was corrupt he 0.97

00:14:00.980 threw and he would throw expensive parties in the desert and blah blah blah um what the islamists 0.82

00:14:07.940 are referring to right because they never go into facts they never talk about um what they're 0.70

00:14:14.340 actually referring to because they don't want you to go and dig in and see what was actually

00:14:19.460 happening they just throw buzzwords at you right because it's like the lowest common denominator

00:14:25.940 right it's like just low iq buzzwords they can just throw around throw around right party in

00:14:30.660 the desert party in the desert um he was corrupt right um and why you know it's very similar to

00:14:37.220 the tactics with the um like the pro habas people they just like you know yell genocide genocide

00:14:42.340 when we all know there's actually no genocide uh whatsoever right and like the the um civilian

00:14:48.180 ratio is incredibly low but but it's the same tactic right they just have a few buzzwords

00:14:53.540 and they just throw it out there and they just repeat it over and over because they don't have

00:14:57.300 any logical reasoning or argument or anything to go behind it so i'm going to explain to you

00:15:04.260 exactly what this party in the desert was and why it was so critical and why i myself personally 0.67

00:15:13.780 you know, as one Iranian, a single Iranian, I am so grateful that the Shah of Iran at the time

00:15:22.200 celebrated the 2500 year anniversary of the Persian Empire. I was not alive at the time,

00:15:30.400 right? Like I was born in 1985. But the fact that he did that, he basically created a piece of

00:15:38.780 history of our shared, you know, our identity as Iranians, which goes back 2,500 years, over 2,500

00:15:46.560 years. By doing what he did, he added to that history. He added to our heritage, right? And

00:15:55.340 again, even a few days ago, we Iranians, we celebrated Cyrus the Great Day. We hold our

00:16:03.620 own events and we honor cyrus the great in iran in iran right now on cyrus the great day

00:16:10.740 iranians flock flock to the tomb of cyrus the great um and you know they they yell for the king

00:16:19.780 to return um you know i'll see if i can find something um there's so many of them i'll find

00:16:31.540 one video here. Cyrus to Iran. All right. Here we go. Here we go. This is, oh, oh, I posted this

00:16:47.640 one myself. Look at that. Okay. See, guys, everything I talk about, everything I talk

00:16:54.400 about, I always come with receipts. So here are Iranians. So I posted this on April 2nd. Okay. 1.00

00:17:03.240 So I posted this on April 2nd. This was for the Persian New Year celebrations. And here you can

00:17:10.420 see even even just a few months ago, right a few months ago, Iranians, they went to the tomb.

00:17:18.180 They went to the tomb of Cyrus the Great in Persepolis, you can see them here and they're

00:17:22.800 celebrating right and and they're saying like long live the king and everything so so this is just

00:17:29.040 um like four or five months ago in april

00:17:31.820 now keep in mind this this is not something that's planned by the government right and i use the 0.64

00:17:48.660 the word government very loosely um because of course Iran is currently occupied by a brutal

00:17:55.060 Islamic dictatorship this is not not something that is organized by the government um by the

00:18:00.740 Islamic regime the Islamic regime doesn't put any sort of money or funding into anything like this

00:18:06.740 uh because they are incredibly anti-Iranian and um they view the Iranian identity as um as a threat

00:18:18.180 right and I've shown the video before of Khomeini the you know demonic evil Ayatollah who was the

00:18:25.700 founder of the Islamic Republic um when he said that um we you know Islam does not want patriots 0.77

00:18:36.100 he said that Islam wants Muslims and he said that patriots are the enemy of Islam right let me let

00:18:43.380 let me bring that video up for you again, just as a refresher, because I know there's a lot of

00:18:47.740 information here, guys, but I have it all for you. Here we go. Here we go. I mean, gosh, I hate

00:19:01.100 showing this man's evil demonic face, but it has to be done, because this, you know, here when he's 0.59

00:19:07.980 talking about how patriotism is the enemy of islam he's referring directly to because this is like

00:19:15.420 this is right when he came to iran and you know they overthrew um the the government and you know 0.85

00:19:21.580 they took iran hostage so this is right when they've come in and he goes he he says it plainly 0.90

00:19:28.060 right away that patriotism is the enemy of islam and he only wants muslims so he doesn't care 1.00

00:19:34.460 which country you're from or anything like that he just wants muslims like they just want to 1.00

00:19:39.740 colonize they want to erase our indigenous identity right it's been the same playbook 1.00

00:19:45.500 with islamic colonization for 1400 years and 1979 is just one of the recent examples of that

00:19:51.660 so just watch this watch what this evil man says

00:20:04.460 so here when he says you know when he says that very very rude phrase he's referring to

00:20:21.260 the shah he's referring to the shah that had just been deposed right listen to this part 0.66

00:20:25.960 this part is insane because the shah he was a muslim the shah was a muslim too but he wasn't

00:20:31.500 an islamist right he was a regular normal muslim and you know but the country was a secular 0.93

00:20:41.260 uh country that was moving towards a democracy but that wasn't good enough for the islamists 0.94

00:20:46.700 right like being a normal muslim is not good enough for islamic terrorists so listen to listen to this 1.00

00:21:01.500 Did you see that? So he's criticizing the Shah of Iran for saying that, you know, he's Iranian first, and then he's a Muslim. He's saying that that's not Islam, right? 0.97

00:21:16.560 so he's he's like he's like if you put anything above islam and sharia law you're not a real 0.95

00:21:25.540 muslim okay so compare that with what you're seeing today with all of these islamists who are

00:21:33.660 coming to your countries right there there oh there's no audio no sound in the other video 0.81

00:21:40.660 okay hopefully we can get that fixed um but i mean it's it's the audio and it's the um

00:21:50.640 the captions here right but but listen to this like this guy like this is the same mantra you're

00:21:56.880 hearing from the islamists who are coming to your country right and then they're burning your flags 0.92

00:22:01.960 and they're saying we want sharia law why because they all think the same right they all think the 0.99

00:22:07.280 it's always Islam first and then you know whatever else or actually Islam first and nothing else

00:22:13.160 right so um this is how Islamic colonization happens right they want to erase your identity 0.98

00:22:20.660 and they just want an Islam like a global Islamic caliphate so that's why the Islamists are 0.97

00:22:27.840 incredibly triggered by the Shah the previous Shah and the Kurd Shah as well it's also why the Islamic 0.76

00:22:36.360 republic has been constantly trying to erase our iranian identity and heritage um because they 0.79

00:22:44.400 don't like the fact that we as iranians have existed for thousands of years before their

00:22:51.680 religion was invented right like before their religion came out whatever you want you know

00:22:55.160 it's founded whatever right before before muhammad did what he did uh like we've been around for

00:23:01.400 thousands and thousands and thousands of years like our food is older our language is older

00:23:06.120 like we were eating with spoons guys we were eating with spoons um thousands of years before 0.94

00:23:11.320 islam was invented right like that's and they don't like that so they've been trying to erase

00:23:16.120 our iranian identity and heritage and that's why that's why this evil man says uh you know patriots 0.97

00:23:24.600 are useless to us uh we want we need muslims and islam is opposed to patriotism so that video that 0.61

00:23:32.920 i showed you was a direct response to the shah's 2500 year celebration of the empire of iran because 1.00

00:23:39.720 of course there is nothing islamic about the empire of iran the empire of iran existed for

00:23:45.480 thousands of years before islam was invented um so i'm gonna play you the video right because one

00:23:53.640 the things the islamists say and they actually they also use this as well so let me let me um

00:23:59.400 explain to you a little bit about the celebration of the persian empire itself and i have it on

00:24:05.080 wikipedia here so let me pull this up for you guys and then we can view it together

00:24:14.040 and that way i can make sure if there's something off about wikipedia i can call it out so

00:24:19.720 So here's the logo for the 2,500-year celebration.

00:24:27.420 So there you can see at the top, that's the royal crest.

00:24:33.160 That's the Pahlavi crown.

00:24:35.280 And then this is the Cyrus cylinder, right?

00:24:37.240 So the Cyrus cylinder here is basically what documented the first human race.

00:24:44.040 so the 2500 year celebration of the persian empire officially known as the 2500 year

00:24:49.960 celebration of the empire of iran and in persian and guys if you

00:24:54.520 if you don't think i can speak farsi i can because here you go so in persian

00:24:58.920 it's josh was hosted by the pahlavi dynasty in the imperial state of iran in october of 1971

00:25:09.640 concentrated at Persepolis, right? Persepolis is the ancient capital of the Persian Empire.

00:25:18.120 So it consisted of an elaborate set of grand festivities that sought to honor the legacy

00:25:25.320 of the Aqaminid Empire, which was founded by Cyrus the Great in 550 BC. The event was aimed

00:25:32.280 at highlighting Iranian history and also showcasing the country's contemporary advances

00:25:38.440 under Muhammad Reza Pahlavi, who had been reigning as the Shah of Iran since 1941. And of course,

00:25:45.800 there is Muhammad Reza Pahlavi, the previous Shah of Iran. It's his birthday today. Happy birthday

00:25:54.340 to you. Dear Shah and Shah, we love you so, so much. And it's an honor for me to be able to just

00:26:01.380 speak about you today and to share um the amazing things that you did right because

00:26:08.100 in 1970 guys i was born in 1985 in 1971 over 50 years ago this man here this incredible um

00:26:19.220 man the shah of iran was so intelligent and he had so much foresight to recognize how important

00:26:29.060 and historic it would be to celebrate the 2500 year anniversary of the persian empire

00:26:35.300 not just for the people who were there at the time but for future generations so that we you

00:26:41.540 know us future iranians could also take part by watching right and so that we could have some pride

00:26:50.100 in our iranian identity the site brought 60 members of royalty and heads of state from abroad

00:26:59.700 i mean that's a really huge number guys right like you don't really see those numbers unless it's

00:27:05.300 like um you know the president of the united states like president trump could pull those

00:27:09.460 kinds of numbers to an event but imagine the shah of iran at the time 60 members of royalty

00:27:15.940 and heads of state came to Iran to honor Cyrus the Great and to commemorate the legacy of

00:27:24.340 the Persian Empire. 0.78

00:27:26.140 So this is where the Islamist narrative comes in, right?

00:27:30.600 So some historians take the view that its role in massive display of seemingly unlimited

00:27:36.180 royal wealth contributed to the Iranian population's growing frustration with the Pahlavi dynasty.

00:27:42.400 While others, this is the correct position, while others argue that the extravagance of

00:27:47.920 the proceedings was exaggerated during the Islamic Revolution to discredit the Shah's

00:27:54.160 regime.

00:27:55.400 That is exactly what happened.

00:27:56.840 They exaggerated everything that was going on, and they also just limited it.

00:28:05.600 They put out this narrative that the Shah had a private party in the desert.

00:28:10.280 Because, again, we're talking about the late 70s here.

00:28:13.380 People in Iran didn't have access to information like we do today, right? 0.53

00:28:18.240 So they weren't able to go verify and fact check it. 0.76

00:28:23.620 And, you know, to the people in the comments saying the biggest and most expensive party ever, good.

00:28:29.900 I'm glad.

00:28:31.160 And I just wish he had spent even more.

00:28:33.340 I wish he had spent double the amount and I would still be happy.

00:28:36.580 You know why?

00:28:37.100 Because he was honoring 2,500 years of Iranian identity and heritage, and you cannot put a number on that.

00:28:46.860 The only people who are upset about that are the Islamists. 0.93

00:28:49.580 And so, you know, during the years leading up to the 1979 Islamic Revolution, you know, the Islamists, again, we're talking about these evil people, right? 0.99

00:29:00.840 We're talking about this evil man, right? 1.00

00:29:04.960 He was complaining about celebrating 2,500 years of the Persian Empire, right?

00:29:13.820 Because, again, they have an agenda. 0.95

00:29:16.400 The Islamists have an agenda. 1.00

00:29:18.520 Islam is opposed to patriotism, right? 1.00

00:29:22.300 They didn't like the fact that Iranians were celebrating their identity. 0.97

00:29:26.980 And so these clerics and mullahs would go around lying to people. 0.65

00:29:31.540 And back then, people were gullible.

00:29:33.840 they were they were much more gullible um than than they are today at that point there was still

00:29:40.080 an element of trust for for the islamic mullahs right um so when you have like an islamic cleric

00:29:47.160 demon man who goes around and says that the shah spent millions you know hundreds of millions of

00:29:52.900 dollars um no one's going to doubt him because they would assume that he is a learned man of 0.79

00:30:00.360 god and he's going to speak the truth and you know all that like nonsense right that they imposed

00:30:05.040 on religious figures meanwhile he's like the most corrupted evil be ever and they all lied right 0.93

00:30:11.320 it's the same as how they lied with cinema wrecks so the islamists will say that the shah was brutal 0.95

00:30:17.660 and murdered people no it was the islamists they actually um locked people in a movie theater 0.78

00:30:23.720 called cinema wrecks they locked them in there they burned everyone to death and then they blamed 0.93

00:30:29.800 it on the shah and they said the shah did this and that actually is what then led to people going 0.76

00:30:37.480 into the streets because they thought that the shah was murdering people it was in fact the

00:30:41.760 islamists themselves you know how like hamas murders uh you know uses like women and children 0.90

00:30:47.560 as human shields and you know martyrs for the cause of jihad it's the same playbook they were 0.91

00:30:53.700 doing the same thing in iran they were murdering people right and then claiming it was the shah 0.83

00:30:59.240 Meanwhile, it was them and they felt justified doing it because, you know, Islam or whatever.

00:31:05.560 So all these lies, you know, kept on growing and growing. 0.51

00:31:09.260 And, you know, at the time people were not able to fact check, you know, they didn't

00:31:13.320 have internet, they didn't have phones, they didn't have, you know, TV the way that we

00:31:18.280 do, right?

00:31:18.860 So they basically listened to the clerics and then they thought, right, because the

00:31:23.380 clerics were coming up with this lie in 1979.

00:31:26.100 they were speaking about something that happened eight years ago how are people supposed to fact

00:31:31.640 check that again this was not a time when people had technology and that's one of the reasons 0.97

00:31:36.400 why the islamic republic is incredibly weak today and is becoming weaker and weaker it's also one 0.95

00:31:41.680 of the reasons why um we iranias we're just done with the islamic republic in fact we're done with

00:31:46.580 like islam in general that's a debate for a whole other time but the reason we're done with them is 0.63

00:31:51.540 because every single lie that comes out of their mouth we're now able to fact check so this party

00:31:56.540 in the desert it wasn't just you know a random party that he was having and he brought his

00:32:02.280 friends over he was literally commemorating 2,500 years of Persian civilization that is massive that

00:32:12.360 is huge most countries in the world are not even a thousand years old let alone 500 right like

00:32:20.780 Like, could you imagine, like, you know, and all countries do this, like, it's a big deal

00:32:26.040 to celebrate, like, 100 years, 125 years, 150 years, right?

00:32:31.760 Like, think of, like, the Jubilee or, you know, all those things, right?

00:32:36.320 I mean, think of, like, the 4th of July. 1.00

00:32:40.680 Now imagine if the Islamists come and they complain about the government spending money 0.97

00:32:44.660 on 4th of July. 0.99

00:32:46.560 That's basically what was happening here.

00:32:48.480 That's basically what was happening.

00:32:50.780 right so this was a party to commemorate 2500 years of persian civilization you cannot put a 0.82

00:32:59.260 price tag on that but the islamists complained and they used it as fodder to overthrow the shah

00:33:07.260 and then they brought in islam and they've been the most anti-iranian thing ever and

00:33:12.700 and they you know they said they said patriotism is the enemy of islam so this party is the enemy

00:33:20.300 of islam because this party is also a slap in the face to the islamists who were never able

00:33:29.180 to fully colonize persia we were able to keep our iranian identity we were able to keep our 0.86

00:33:34.700 iranian heritage and the persian empire was still there so let me show you this so this is this is

00:33:42.140 the tomb of cyrus the great so this is where um this is where the party was held it was held in

00:33:49.100 Persepolis. So again, the Shah did not rule through torture and fear under Stavuk. Stavuk is

00:33:56.260 amazing. We love Stavuk. The only people who don't like Stavuk are communists and Islamists. And in

00:34:03.400 fact, Khamenei was a prisoner in Stavuk. If Stavuk was so evil, how did Khamenei survive? If Stavuk

00:34:11.060 was so evil, how did Khamenei survive? Why were these people just exiled instead of executed, 0.90

00:34:15.200 right so your logic doesn't stand we iranians we love we love stavok we want stavok to come back

00:34:21.280 i can guarantee you that when the slumber republic is overthrown like literally everyone's going to

00:34:25.960 be applying for a job at stavok like i will volunteer for stavok for free um i love stavok

00:34:31.340 but anyway going back to the topic so when they say the shah threw a party in the desert well

00:34:37.720 it wasn't a random thing. It's because the celebration was held in front of the tomb

00:34:44.760 of Cyrus the Great, right? Cyrus the Great, the founder of the Persian Empire. So in order to

00:34:51.580 honor, in order to honor Cyrus the Great, the Shah held the celebration, the 2,500 year celebration

00:35:00.300 of the Persian Empire at the site of the capital of the Persian Empire, which was Persepolis,

00:35:08.280 which currently is in the desert, right? So here are some photos. Let me show you some photos here.

00:35:14.740 You know, this is actually nice. So here, so right, so these here, these are the ruins of

00:35:21.480 Persepolis. So there's the ruins of Persepolis. And, you know, there's, you know, the Shah,

00:35:27.860 and all the dignitaries right now i have this i have the video of this so we're gonna we're

00:35:32.680 gonna watch this too but this is just a little primer right so when they say when the islamists

00:35:37.320 say oh party in the desert it was literally a parade in front of the tomb of cyrus the great

00:35:43.400 to honor the tomb to honor the founder of the persian empire right it's it's it's like complaining

00:35:50.920 about holding um you know it's like complaining about celebrating the birthday of abraham lincoln

00:35:57.660 in front of the Lincoln Memorial, right? 0.72

00:35:59.440 It's just this insane jihadi narrative that they have.

00:36:04.760 How do I go back here? 0.80

00:36:08.320 Okay.

00:36:09.500 And then here's some of the costumes, right?

00:36:12.080 So, again, like, these are the outfits that ancient Persians,

00:36:20.540 ancient Persian soldiers would wear.

00:36:22.780 So, you know, when they talk about, oh, this was an extravagant party,

00:36:26.440 the shah was literally spending money on you know Iranian culture and heritage I'm for one and

00:36:34.380 that's where I want my money to go you know where I don't want my money to go I don't want my money

00:36:39.600 going to found to funding Hamas and Hezbollah and the Houthis that's what the Islamic Republic is 0.98

00:36:45.200 doing so this this is bad right this according to them is bad spending money on historically

00:36:52.120 accurate outfits and costumes, right, to bring to life the Persian Empire, that's a no-no for 0.64

00:37:00.460 the Islamists. But, you know, sending money to Hamas and Hezbollah to front terrorism and 0.64

00:37:06.440 murder Jews, that's okay, right? I mean, again, this is the thinking of the Islamists. They hate 0.97

00:37:12.800 everything and everyone. So, you know, to me, that is money well spent, 100%, money well spent.

00:37:21.020 um this was the tent city so this is actually super super cool so they actually you know they

00:37:28.640 set up a series of tents right because the the celebration was held in the desert right you can

00:37:34.440 see like there's the ruins of persepolis and then you know there's a road that they built and then

00:37:40.200 there's the tents and that's where the dignitaries were stayed which makes sense i mean you're

00:37:44.940 literally inviting the heads of state and royalty you're inviting 60 royalty members and heads of

00:37:50.820 state from around the world to honor cyrus the great i mean you have to have some sort of first

00:37:58.740 of all security measures in place right and then you know you have to be a good host well you're

00:38:03.060 just going to bring them and just have them languish in the desert right like it's insane

00:38:06.980 and look how like beautifully this was done it's so classy and you know it's not at all like over

00:38:13.220 the top but it's still very um very high class you know what i mean very very high class

00:38:20.820 all right so here's here's the the tents that they had look at that that's and then this guy

00:38:28.180 like you know wearing wearing traditional dress right and that's the other thing no one ever

00:38:32.760 talks about like all the jobs that were created right so you know if the shah was spending millions

00:38:38.780 of dollars to hire iranians to help with the festivities good that's that's how money should

00:38:45.460 be specked right and then of course here's shahan and the queen so uh she is still alive by the way

00:38:56.800 she just turned 87 we love her um why are these people oh my gosh oh guys i told you like i told

00:39:09.900 you people like i told you the islamists what gets um triggered right like i'm literally sharing 0.98

00:39:16.480 facts about iranian history and then all these non-iranians are in here and they're like all 0.94

00:39:22.300 triggered i don't know why look at this look how beautiful this is oh my gosh like that is just

00:39:28.160 such a beautiful thing right like that looking at this this makes me proud to be iranian right

00:39:35.560 this is my heritage this is my iranian identity and history and culture and i love seeing this

00:39:42.200 it's beautiful it's beautiful and you know prior to the islamic republic uh taking over and turning 0.94

00:39:49.400 our countries with some century islamic hellhole we were such amazing hosts people from around the 1.00

00:39:54.680 world would come visit iran and travel to iran okay so there are some more all right let's go 1.00

00:40:03.560 back here. So the planning for the party took a year. And then there was the tent city that I

00:40:11.800 spoke about. Festivities. So the festivities were opened on October 12, 1971, when the Shah and the

00:40:18.720 Shah Banu paid homage to Cyrus the Great at his mausoleum in Pasar Gaudet, or, you know, Persepolis.

00:40:25.400 For the next two days, the Shah and his wife greeted arriving guests, often directly at

00:40:30.040 Shiraz's airport. On 14 October, a grand gala dinner took place in the Banqueting Hall in

00:40:35.640 celebration of the birthday of the Shah Honu, because her birthday was in October as well.

00:40:39.940 60 members of royal families and heads of state were assembled at the single large serpentine

00:40:44.780 table in the Banqueting Hall. They dined off a special dinner service of 10,000 plates

00:40:49.880 commissioned from the English China manufacturer's boat. Each plate decorated in turquoise and gold

00:40:56.680 with the Shah's coat of arms. I love that. I love that. 600 guests dined over five and a half hours,

00:41:06.340 thus making for the longest and most lavish official banquet in modern history. I absolutely

00:41:14.240 love, love that. I love that we are known for our hospitality as Iranians. It's definitely much

00:41:22.920 better than being known for like you know blowing people up as islamists right so there's you know

00:41:28.200 big difference between iranians and islamists there all right so okay this is this is the 0.80

00:41:34.440 interesting part so this is this is where like the islamist jihadi takia nonsense comes into play

00:41:40.360 so the ministry of the court placed the cost at 17 million us dollars at the time someone else

00:41:48.360 puts it at about 22 million okay so the actual figure is difficult to calculate exactly and is

00:41:54.120 a partisan issue so this is where it comes in right so the islamists the islamists claim

00:42:02.200 that the celebrations cost about 120 million u.s dollars however this claim has been described as

00:42:08.760 having no real basis. There you go. So again, it's just it's just all lies, right? So even even

00:42:20.480 with the exorbitant amounts that they're saying, they can't prove it. But you know what, even if

00:42:27.740 the Shah spent 120 million US dollars to celebrate the 2500 year anniversary of Cyrus the Great,

00:42:36.940 Good. I'm glad he should have spent more. In fact, I think it's a shame that he did not celebrate Cyrus the Great Day every year. And I have a feeling that when Iran is free, it's going to be an annual thing. It's going to be an annual thing, right? I mean, there are so many important parts of our elements and heritage and history that we are so proud of. 0.93

00:43:03.900 Why shouldn't we celebrate? I mean, you know, Germans have Oktoberfest. Why can't we have Cyrus the Great? Right.

00:43:11.840 Why? Like so many countries proudly celebrate their cultural heritage. Right.

00:43:18.540 And yet for some reason, when we Iranians celebrated in the past, you have the Islamists who come and attack us.

00:43:25.980 And why do they attack us? Because, again, it's part of the whole Islamic colonization agenda. Right. 0.98

00:43:32.180 They want to actively erase our identity and history.

00:43:36.300 So let's now start watching this video.

00:43:40.260 I'm so excited for this, guys.

00:43:42.380 It's also on my YouTube channel.

00:43:44.120 But here we go.

00:43:46.140 And, you know, again, I just want to thank the late Shah of Iran, Shahan Shah Aryamir, for doing this, for having the foresight to not only do this,

00:43:58.940 but to also give people the opportunity to document it so that future generations of Iranians could watch this and feel proud, 0.89

00:44:07.800 especially given the fact that now our country is occupied by Islamic terrorists who have been trying to erase our Iranian identity. 0.76

00:44:16.120 This video is a link not only to our Iranian identity and heritage, but it's a link to what Iran was like before Islam came in. 0.55

00:44:27.960 it's a link to what Iran was like when we were a normal secular country and it 0.74

00:44:33.660 also gives us hope it gives us hope and it lets us know that we can go back to 0.55

00:44:38.280 that and we will go back to that because Islamic dictatorship is very weak and it 0.89

00:44:43.380 will be overthrown soon and as soon as Iran is free we can go back to proudly

00:44:47.640 celebrating our Iranian identity and heritage all right guys here we go and I

00:44:53.100 found like this version where it's like narrated narrated by a British dude so

00:44:57.180 it's funny. Some of the things he says are pretty funny.

00:45:27.180 Iranians call it Iran. Their soft and musical language, Persian. On the rim of the country's

00:45:35.900 dead heart, the old enemy, sand. This part is actually, the first time I heard this part,

00:45:43.900 I kind of, I didn't realize that my enemy is sand, but there you go, guys. So for Iranians, 1.00

00:45:48.840 all the Iranians watching, apparently our enemy is sand. I just thought that was kind of funny. 1.00

00:45:52.860 Sand, sand, they're flowered under its powder blue skies, a wonder in the story of mankind.

00:46:02.780 so this year right like this is like the the um ruins of persepolis so persepolis was the

00:46:27.720 capital city of the persian empire so that's um you're seeing like parts of the city there

00:46:32.780 beautiful women in a land blessed to this day with beautiful women

00:46:40.140 inspired the miniature painter's brushes women with silvery voices and melting eyes

00:46:47.660 i have to say um i totally get it's like a 1970s thing you know like he's like romanticizing like

00:46:57.760 iranian women but it's it's really funny i don't mind though i don't mind i mean

00:47:02.120 I don't think I have a silvery voice but I know and then he says something about her eyes he says

00:47:06.580 like eyes like gazelles or something but I don't know it's just it's just really funny how they 0.84

00:47:11.520 like you know people describe each other like they're they're making Iran seem like this very 0.77

00:47:15.600 exotic place although I mean I guess it is you know what I have to remember that like for non-Iranians

00:47:21.040 especially people who are not from the Middle East um Iran is pretty exotic in fact you know

00:47:26.380 everything you could think of like with the Middle East like you could find in Iran like

00:47:32.040 all the stereotypes and everything and in fact uh interesting side note um a thousand and one nights

00:47:38.200 shahzad and a thousand and one nights is um an iranian story and in fact the princess's name

00:47:43.800 you guys say shahrazad um it's actually pronounced shahzad which is an ancient persian name from

00:47:51.640 the persian empire so there you go a thousand and one arabian nights doesn't exist it was just

00:47:56.600 like some ignorant person just added the arabian part to it but you know a thousand and one nights

00:48:02.920 is originally persian there you go eyes like the eyes of the gazelle which leaps over the tarnished 0.86

00:48:10.360 gold of the mountainsides over the centuries grew palaces and mosques will continue to triumph and 0.97

00:48:20.040 we will triumph against the islamic republic because again this was this was made um seven 0.98

00:48:25.960 eight years before the islamic republic took over so everything he's saying still relevant today 0.92

00:48:31.800 and the islamic republic is not special they're no different than any other occupiers in the past we

00:48:37.000 have maintained our iranian identity and heritage for thousands of years we'll continue to do so

00:48:42.760 well after the islamic republic is thrown into the app so that's that's the shah of iran shahan

00:48:48.600 and that's the empress and then you'll see behind the uh his son that's the current shah in exile

00:48:56.700 um of iran shah and shah are yomer it's his birthday today happy birthday to you

00:49:01.420 shah and shah are yomer thank you for what you did back in 1971 thank you for giving us future

00:49:08.340 generations of iranians an opportunity to witness that historic event and to celebrate it and to 0.99

00:49:15.280 throw it in the face of the Islamists who have tried to erase our identity for 2500 years we are 0.95

00:49:22.580 sorry for 1400 years i should say they have tried to erase our identity they have not been able to 0.95

00:49:27.340 do so they will not be able to do so and we will keep your legacy going and strong we love you

00:49:33.340 the lord's anointed of the prophet isaiah in the old testament cyrus the founder of persian culture

00:49:42.080 and the father of Iran, the land, five times the size of Great Britain,

00:49:48.980 which this Shah rules today.

00:49:53.460 In solemnly dedicating himself to the memory of his predecessor,

00:49:57.360 the Shah was keeping a promise he had made ten years earlier.

00:50:01.980 As he left the tomb to join his empress and his ten-year-old son,

00:50:06.240 the crown prince, he was filled with a sense of occasion.

00:50:09.640 It had fallen to him after a twilight in his nation's long history

00:50:15.140 to remind the world and his own people of Persian pride.

00:50:39.640 so he said kurosh cyrus right so in farsi um cyrus is kurosh so he says kurosh uh the the great king

00:50:57.120 the king of kings the king of the persian empire the king of iran the king of iran the shah of

00:51:05.940 Guys, if you haven't already figured it out by now, Shah is king in Farsi, so Shah.

00:51:12.940 Oh, Cyrus, great king, king of kings, Hachamanian king, king of the land of Iran, I, the shanshah

00:51:35.700 of Iran, offer these salutations from myself.

00:51:39.440 so they're standing in front of the tomb of cyrus the great right like so so he's proclaiming uh

00:51:45.540 like this is basically he's honoring cyrus the great right now by standing in front of his tomb

00:51:49.600 and from my nation at this glorious moment in the history of iran that's so that's the um that's the

00:51:59.260 current shah in exile this is him when he was obviously a child so yeah he's he's the current

00:52:05.880 shah of iran right now hi and all iranians the offspring of the empire which thou founded

00:52:13.240 2 500 years ago power heads in reverence before thy tomb we cherish thy undying memory

00:52:35.880 Oh

00:53:05.880 So you guys right now are going to get an in-depth look into the Persian Empire

00:53:16.020 because the Shah of Iran, God bless his soul, brought it to life.

00:53:20.560 He brought it to life. 0.93

00:53:22.140 All the money he spent was spent on bringing our past to life.

00:53:29.960 And, yeah, I always get a little bit emotional when I see this.

00:53:33.400 I always get, like, goosebumps when I see this because, you know, it resonates.

00:53:37.860 It resonates. 1.00

00:53:38.720 And, you know, with all the evil that the Islamic Republic has brought upon the Iranian people and our nation with all the, you know, death and despair and suffering. 1.00

00:53:50.440 And I could go on and on about the horrific things they have done to us for 47 years in the name of, like, Islam and Allah and whatever. 1.00

00:53:58.040 It's so depressing. 1.00

00:53:59.900 Something like this is like a beacon of light.

00:54:02.760 It's like a ray of hope, right? Like it's, it's a window into a world of possibilities where the Iran's past could be or not could be Iran's past will be her future. So this is this what you're looking at is what you can expect when Iran is free. It's not going to be like Iraq or Libya or Afghanistan. None of that. None of that.

00:54:29.440 We're going to go back to what we were before 1979, which is a proper country, a proper functioning country with a heritage and a cultural identity that predates Islam by thousands of years. 0.97

00:54:43.120 So what you're looking at right now is not just Iran's past, but it's her future. 0.96

00:54:49.180 As soon as the Islamic Republic is overthrown and we're getting to that point, we're going to go back to this.

00:54:54.200 So this gives you a very good insight into Iranian society and culture.

00:55:24.200 In the middle of October 1971,

00:55:50.140 62 heads of state

00:55:53.060 For their direct representatives

00:55:54.940 Converged on the airport

01:01:16.060 head of state had an apartment with a sitting room two bedrooms and two bathrooms oh wow okay let's

01:01:21.200 go back a little bit did you guys catch that like even even the design of the tent city had meaning

01:01:27.060 like look at that so it's five branches for five continents that is so like just the amount of like

01:01:36.720 thought and detail and planning that went into this is absolutely incredible right like who would

01:01:43.280 have even thought to do something like that and yet they did so it just i love it i love it i love

01:01:50.260 everything about this their camp if you can call it a camp was shaped like a

01:01:56.560 star with five wings branching out from the royal pavilion to represent the five

01:02:02.020 continents each head of state had an apartment with a sitting room two

01:02:06.460 bedrooms and two bathrooms at a service room with an electric stove and ironing

01:02:10.440 board for their entourage

01:02:20.260 the shah had personally supervised all the preparations inside of the ruins of the great

01:02:32.820 palace of his predecessors which had taken 187 years to build the complex of new building

01:02:38.900 was a major piece of construction even for modern times

01:02:42.460 one day it is thought that it might become a super hotel for wealthy tourists

01:02:50.260 The great hand weavers of Persian carpets had been using their uncanny skill to make portraits in silk of each of the distinguished guests.

01:02:59.400 I love that. Oh, my gosh. Could you imagine like you get a portrait?

01:03:04.520 You get a portrait of yourself that's a Persian rug.

01:03:08.740 That is incredible. Oh, my gosh.

01:03:11.060 I mean, we're known for Persian rugs, obviously, and, you know, silk Persian rugs.

01:03:14.820 Look at how much pride the Shah had in Iranian art and history and culture, right?

01:03:22.760 Like every element of this 2,500-year celebration incorporated Iranian culture and heritage in some way.

01:03:33.740 I mean, he could have spent hundreds of millions of dollars more on top.

01:03:40.020 It would not have been enough.

01:03:41.660 You know what?

01:03:42.180 It would have been worth it.

01:03:43.080 every single penny spent on this 100% worth it because this is a celebration that makes me

01:03:49.460 proud as an Iranian um and this is something that um is at the level of celebrating a civilization

01:03:59.140 that has existed for 2,500 years right a nation the Iranian nation right you don't often get to

01:04:08.180 celebrate your 2500th birthday most countries in the world don't celebrate their 2500th birthday

01:04:14.580 so you know kind of a big deal and I'm so glad that he did this this is amazing this is oh my 1.00

01:04:20.600 gosh I love this and not only that it's good for the economy because he is paying Iranians

01:04:27.580 to create works of art like that's fantastic right he's he's promoting Iranian art culture

01:04:34.440 because could you imagine when you know they get these gifts and they go other people are going to

01:04:39.320 want them so then they're going to buy them right it's an amazing way to boost the economy and bring

01:04:45.240 in um you know foreign foreign buyers and foreign spending portraits were to be hung in their

01:04:51.320 sitting rooms as the famous men and women matched their pictures with their presence

01:04:56.200 they were given an excited greeting persia was in gala

01:05:13.720 the villagers had heard so guys i want to point something out here 0.86

01:05:19.400 um so do you see how the women right some of them have hijab and some don't 0.99

01:05:26.200 right? So you can see here, like, you know, she's got like a little headscarf on. That was pretty 1.00

01:05:31.660 much the extent of like hijab for Iranian women, right? Even those who were Muslim. You know, 0.58

01:05:40.080 first of all, many, many Iranian, you know, Muslims did not cover their hair. So you can

01:05:43.660 see her here. But even like the Muslim women, they were not that, like that, you know, definitely 1.00

01:05:51.400 not to the extent today, right? Like where everyone has to walk around wearing like a black 1.00

01:05:55.300 um blanket and you know looks like a trash bag like and iran was free right this is this is the

01:06:02.360 thing you guys need to understand iran was free everyone um had the freedom to practice their

01:06:07.440 religion or not right so you see this woman here wearing the hijab and by the way she's still

01:06:12.560 dancing in public so she's wearing the hijab but she's dancing in public um and then this woman is 0.96

01:06:17.380 not right um right now like to me watching this video is incredible because uh since the islamic 0.93

01:06:25.600 republic took over in 1979 public dancing is banned first of all women cannot go out dressed 0.95

01:06:31.240 like that like that's illegal right you gotta like wear all black um second of all public dancing is

01:06:37.200 banned and public music is banned because it's seen as un-islamic and haram so the fact that 0.71

01:06:42.300 even seeing this is mind-blowing and again like this just flies in the face of all the islamists

01:06:48.120 who constantly say iran is a muslim country iran is muslim always muslim no never like um there

01:06:54.560 were muslims in iran yes i mean even the shah of iran even the emperor himself he was muslim but

01:07:00.820 iran was not an islamic society do you guys get the difference so there were iranians various

01:07:06.600 different religions right we have iranian muslims iranian christians iranian jews iranian baha'i

01:07:11.640 so astrians agnostic atheists the whole thing right anything you could think of we all lived

01:07:16.900 peacefully there was no issue there iran was not an islamic country it was only when the islamic

01:07:24.100 republic came and imposed sharia law on iranians that iran officially became an islamic country

01:07:31.320 and we've been fighting it ever since 1979 but as you can tell iran was not a muslim kind like it

01:07:38.080 not an islamic muslim country it was it was a normal country um like just like anywhere in the

01:07:45.360 west heard on radio and television that the great people of the world were coming to honor their

01:07:52.320 country like this country which like this is all traditional dress even the way the women are 0.96

01:07:58.640 dressed that's not good enough for the islamists so this right here like um two three years ago

01:08:05.520 So Mahsa Amini, she's a 22-year-old woman from the province of Kurdistan.

01:08:12.080 She was murdered by the Islamic Republic's morality police, their Islamic morality police.

01:08:18.260 She was being to death because her mandatory hijab was showing too much hair. 0.95

01:08:25.000 So this right here, that's enough to get you killed in the Islamic Republic today. 0.90

01:08:30.380 It ruled in the past what was... 0.81

01:08:33.100 That's totally not allowed. This is banned in Iran.

01:08:35.520 The country which after. Right. So so people now like so when the Islamic Republic first came into power in 1979, they had a lot of control. 1.00

01:08:45.240 There was a lot of religious like fervor as well and everything. So everything was banned.

01:08:49.460 Everything was banned. They would still want it to be banned to this day.

01:08:52.960 But, you know, things have changed quite a bit. You have three generations of Iranians who were born after the Islamic Republic,

01:09:00.960 who wants nothing to do with sharia law starting with myself the millennials and then the gen z

01:09:06.720 and now gen alpha um and so you're seeing more and more um videos and images coming out of young

01:09:13.040 people in iran just you know walking around without wearing hijab as much or maybe like

01:09:18.720 dancing or singing in the streets totally not allowed like totally the thought of like

01:09:24.000 the thought of me like because i i was i visited iran um a few times when i was young i was there

01:09:29.600 as a teenager for a few months and you know completely different right the thought of like

01:09:33.920 even going out and dancing um like gets me nervous makes me start to shake because i've seen what

01:09:41.280 happens right but so the images and videos that you're seeing right now coming out of iran where

01:09:48.160 young people are you know singing or dancing or playing rock music um that's not because the

01:09:54.080 islamic republic uh is no longer there it's because those young people are engaging in civil

01:10:01.520 disobedience can you imagine like civil disobedience in iran is singing and dancing 0.69

01:10:08.320 this right here is civil disobedience why because this is against sharia law

01:10:12.560 the centuries of empathy but here you go like this looks like any normal celebration so guys

01:10:18.320 for those of you who just joined this is iran um prior to 1979 when islamic regime took over this

01:10:24.720 is the um 1971 uh celebration of the 2500 year anniversary of the persian empire so you are

01:10:33.200 watching videos of when iran was normal and if you guys just a quick plug if you guys want to see

01:10:39.920 more footage like this i actually have a playlist on my youtube channel called iran before 1979 and

01:10:47.360 I'm adding videos to that so make sure that you subscribe to my YouTube channel and then you can

01:10:54.000 go to the playlist I just started the playlist yesterday I've already uploaded five five or six

01:11:05.920 looks like before 1979 just go to that playlist because it's got a whole bunch of stuff already

01:11:11.040 and I'm going to be adding more to it as well. Their Shah was determined to lead into the 20th

01:11:16.800 century he began by inviting the world to sorry i have to stop again this is women in 1971 in iran 0.78

01:11:25.120 like does this look like an islamic country to you right like this this is insane this right

01:11:31.360 now is banned in iran stop look and listen the modern world had half forgot and you know the

01:11:43.760 other thing i wanted to mention is one of the things that like the communists or the islamists

01:11:48.180 say is that you know minorities had no rights and minorities were um persecuted by the shah 0.91

01:11:55.620 utter complete nonsense bs it's takia right it's just another lie that the islamists spread 0.84

01:12:03.060 to propagate um hatred for the shah and to fuel people into overthrowing the islam overthrowing 0.96

01:12:12.080 shah bringing about the islamic republic the shah never persecuted minorities look he literally 0.57

01:12:16.640 celebrated the various cultures and tribes and you know everything about iran like like you're

01:12:23.280 seeing all these different types of traditional dance and everything so i mean everything you 0.93

01:12:28.800 think you know about the shah is a lie because you have been fed propaganda by the islamists 0.53

01:12:35.360 for 47 years but you know what you know what does not lie videos videos and images and that's why 0.96

01:12:42.080 They don't want you to see this stuff because they don't want you to know the truth

01:13:12.080 Throughout the day and into the night, the Shah was in constant attendance on the newly arriving guests.

01:13:31.300 His hand, for a hundred times, was stretched in welcome.

01:13:42.080 Thank you.

01:14:12.080 Looking at these scenes, a poker player might well reflect

01:14:15.420 that here is that rare hand in cards, which is called a royal flush.

01:14:44.320 of iran look at that like people are normal they're well dressed um having like regular 0.78

01:14:50.540 conversations people are happy right like this is what the islamic republic took from us this is what

01:14:56.740 this is what sharia law took from us had a unique opportunity for relaxed conversation

01:15:03.260 well perhaps not now with the tv cameras looking on but others were talking elsewhere

01:15:08.760 an international congress of 250 scholars were already in session at shiraz the papers they

01:15:17.820 read on persian culture were to be published and circulated to research institutes throughout

01:15:22.560 the world such a brain's trust of persian study had never been collected before

01:15:27.920 in Shiraz where there is a garden appropriately named garden of paradise

01:15:39.340 the lights twinkled like diamonds like the bubbles in a glass of champagne

01:15:57.920 Thank you.

01:18:44.340 The Shah was proposing the toast of his guests.

01:18:48.560 Look at some of them.

01:18:53.200 In our gathering this evening, past history is linked with the realities of today.

01:18:59.520 Such a bond of past and present, achieved by understanding and friendship,

01:19:04.920 is surely an omen of good.

01:19:14.340 that you billionaires of this trip

01:19:21.220 On the following evening, the guests moved out into the star-spangled Persian night toward Persepolis

01:19:26.860 the ruined palace of Cyrus' successor, Darius and his son Xexes

01:19:33.920 Alexander the Great, the conqueror who reduced it to a shell

01:19:38.220 is said to have needed 10,000 mules and 6,000 camels

01:19:43.480 to remove the treasures which were housed in the precincts.

01:19:48.220 The climax for the royal guests was a sang-lumière among the great stones,

01:19:54.600 where it all happened.

01:19:57.280 From the tomb in the mountainside overlooking the palace

01:20:00.560 where he ruled 500 years before Christ,

01:20:03.780 the voice of Darius the Great speaks again.

01:20:07.860 Open.

01:20:11.580 Open.

01:20:12.400 Okay, so what they're doing is they're doing a light show.

01:20:15.960 So imagine you're in the desert, right?

01:20:19.360 Like you're in the ruins of Persepolis, which is the ancient capital of the Persian Empire.

01:20:24.800 You're there to commemorate the 2,500-year anniversary of the Persian Empire.

01:20:32.160 And then you're out in the desert at night.

01:20:33.980 and then all of a sudden this like amazing light show um starts you know with with the ruins and um

01:20:40.460 if you haven't been to the to the ruins um persepolis it is breathtaking i went um i actually

01:20:47.340 had uh was able to visit when i was younger i think i was like 14 maybe at the time and we

01:20:54.140 went to go see it and even though the islamic republic has not maintained it it's in a state

01:20:58.140 of disrepair it is still so incredibly majestic and you know i i would i want to go back like i'm

01:21:06.060 dying to go back it's just there's something about persepolis as an iranian and i think i speak for

01:21:11.900 all iranians when i say this it just calls to your blood right it's like um there's like this this

01:21:18.620 draw to just go to persepolis right because it's uh it's really where our iranian identity and

01:21:24.860 heritage started um and it's just so awe-inspiring to to walk through this giant ancient city um

01:21:36.460 and i just sometimes i feel envy i'm very jealous of the iwanians who lived you know 2500 years ago

01:21:43.260 under the time of cyrus the great like imagine living in such a fantastic um civilization like

01:21:49.580 Like, I just, it's amazing.

01:21:51.700 All right, let's watch this light show.

01:21:53.760 And, guys, like, enjoy because this part is amazing.

01:21:57.080 The gates guarded by winged bulls with human heads.

01:22:19.580 And now comes the procession of the ambassadors, their beards and ringlets, their hair curled.

01:22:25.580 The long procession towards the stairways of stone and black marble, guarded by the lances of our royal guard, the 10,000 mortals. 0.87

01:22:34.580 The long train of the horsemen from the steps of the Arab camel drivers, moving toward the tall forest of stone columns that reach to the sky in a gesture of prayer. 0.83

01:22:49.580 The Aeolians and the Aeolians, living on land and sea, bring you their rams and amber chalices. 0.97

01:22:57.680 And when I reconquered Cyprus, the Greek colonies of Asia, I too left them all their liberties. 0.52

01:23:23.520 Look at the detail. 0.96

01:23:24.840 So, when he says Ahura Mazda, he's referring to the Zoroastrian god, right?

01:23:38.360 His image to cohabit with those of the Greek gods on coins.

01:23:54.840 THE END

01:24:24.840 Okay, guys, now we're getting to, like, my favorite part 1.00

01:24:50.320 where, you know, all these Iranians are now dressed in the, you know, clothes from that time.

01:24:59.480 And you're going to see sort of like this, you're going to see almost like a military parade.

01:25:03.840 So I have to look into this, I can't recall, but I'm pretty sure like a lot of the people that are

01:25:08.820 that are dressed in these outfits are part of the Iranian army at the time. So the military parade,

01:25:19.000 right it's showing like all the weapons and you know all the various you know outfits or whatever

01:25:24.600 but the military parade starts like 2500 years ago so you're gonna see like you know this this

01:25:31.640 build up um and you're gonna see how the outfits change um you know as we as we go you know

01:25:39.160 century past century right you're gonna see you're about to see 2500 years worth of um persian

01:25:46.920 military okay so again my favorite part here i i love this and the fact the fact that uh you know

01:25:55.440 not only was the shah able to bring this to life but also it was recorded so that future generations 0.98

01:26:02.240 can enjoy phenomenal phenomenal right this is what the islamists complain about they

01:26:08.620 they don't like the fact that um there was an iran that existed well before islam was invented

01:26:16.160 They don't like the fact that Iran is going to exist

01:26:18.100 well after their Islamic Republic is gone. 1.00

01:26:20.740 That's why they attack us. 1.00

01:26:21.840 That's why they attack this ceremony, right?

01:26:23.720 But when you look at it, like, this is phenomenal.

01:26:27.240 Like, this is, I love it.

01:26:29.920 I love it.

01:26:30.560 You know, I wish he'd spent more.

01:26:32.300 I wish he'd spent more. 1.00

01:26:45.720 Long, long ago, the ancient Persians invented

01:27:14.500 the postal system with relays of horsemen bringing news from the distant outposts of

01:27:19.500 empire. Today in the company of his guests, in the long shadow of the ruins of Persepolis,

01:27:26.460 messengers of good omen bring the Shah the greetings of his Senate in Tehran.

01:27:44.500 Today we submit to history, the account of the past 2,500 years, and we firmly believe that the balance is proudly to our credit.

01:28:14.500 Have a great day.

01:28:44.300 how cool is this how like it's incredible it's incredible so you know you're in the desert right

01:28:51.500 you're in the ruins of persepolis uh the you know ancient city of the persian empire right cyrus the

01:28:58.140 great the founder of the persian empire built persepolis as well so you're in the ruins of

01:29:02.780 persepolis the city that existed uh 2500 years ago and now this incredible parade is about to start

01:29:11.020 which highlights and showcases the history of the persian civilization like i have chills right now

01:29:18.220 like i would give anything to witness something like this um firsthand myself and you know it's

01:29:26.940 not such a wild thing like i have a feeling that uh you know if the islamic republic hadn't taken 0.96

01:29:33.180 over and you know we had continued to be a normal secular country we would be seeing a lot more 0.86

01:29:40.140 stuff like this i mean think of all of the um parades that various countries host uh around

01:29:46.940 the world right annually annually christmas parades thanksgiving parades you know all those

01:29:52.780 things and yet the fact that we iranians held a parade to commemorate the 2500th birthday of our 0.89

01:30:02.140 nation is something that the islamists complained about and still complain about right um communists

01:30:09.260 don't respect history. Islamists don't respect history. And the fact that they are now coming 0.85

01:30:15.040 into your countries and they're trying to cancel your celebrations, it's not a bug. It's a feature

01:30:22.160 because they canceled this. The Islamists canceled this for us. And now I cannot experience this 1.00

01:30:29.700 right now until Iran is free. I have to celebrate Cyrus the Great Day outside of Iran because the 0.98

01:30:35.800 Islamists are controlling the country. 1.00

01:30:40.880 And no, the Shah did not bankrupt the country by throwing the ball. 0.99

01:30:45.820 I mean, guys, this is like, it's the most ridiculous argument that Islamists put out. 0.74

01:30:50.920 All governments invest in tourism. 0.91

01:30:53.640 And I'm saying this to you as a former politician.

01:30:56.080 I was a politician for seven years in Ontario, Canada.

01:30:59.420 All governments have a ministry of tourism and heritage and culture. 0.99

01:31:05.000 and governments invest in tourism and heritage and culture because this brings in outsiders

01:31:13.140 they want to come to to the country and then they want to spend right so these things are 0.99

01:31:19.060 just from an economic point of view it's good for business the fact that the shah did this um 0.76

01:31:25.800 this paid like exponentially in dividends right the like this was not wasting money this was an

01:31:34.480 investment in Iran. This was an investment in Iranian culture, in Iranian tourism. He basically

01:31:43.040 put Iran on the map because after this, all of a sudden people from around the world wanted to

01:31:49.620 travel to Iran. And in fact, a few years after this, Iran Air had the first direct flight from

01:31:58.160 New York City nonstop to Tehran, Iran. Can you imagine that? Can you imagine the 70s? There was

01:32:04.320 a direct flight from new york to tehran well before there were direct flights to any other

01:32:10.240 countries in the middle east but there was a direct flight right why it was because of this

01:32:14.400 because the investment that the shah put into this celebration paid in dividends and this is what the

01:32:22.800 islamists don't want this is like what communists and islamists don't get i don't know maybe they're 0.99

01:32:27.840 just low iq maybe they're stupid i don't know every single government has a budget for tourism 1.00

01:32:35.760 and heritage and culture it's expected right it's expected and yet for some reason the islamists 0.99

01:32:42.560 are complaining about the shah doing this and you know what it makes sense because they are so low 0.77

01:32:48.400 iq and they don't understand anything about the economy the the shah was actually growing iran's

01:32:55.200 economy and the gdp was growing like it was it was improving exponentially now the economy in iran 0.72

01:33:04.320 is like the worst in the entire world the the real is worth next to nothing inflation is through the 0.99

01:33:10.960 roof 70 of people live below the poverty line because not only have the mullahs stolen all 0.91

01:33:16.640 the money for themselves iran is a resource oil rich country there is no reason for anyone to be 0.59

01:33:22.880 poor um in fact iranian citizens they don't even have to work people could be completely unemployed 0.76

01:33:30.320 and the government could still pay for them all that's how rich iran is but all the ayatollahs 0.87

01:33:35.120 have done is they have stolen the money for themselves right they're all worth billions 0.87

01:33:39.120 and billions of dollars um and they also don't know how to run a country they have no idea of 1.00

01:33:45.360 economics because they're all a bunch of like inbred uneducated mullahs the only thing they 0.91

01:33:49.680 know how to read is the quran they know nothing about governing a country and so iran's economy 0.99

01:33:55.520 is literally the worst it has ever been in the history of its existence right and yet those 1.00

01:34:02.320 islamists are complaining about this investment that the shah made in iran right he invested in 0.98

01:34:09.280 iran which then paid out in dividends because this is what promoted tourism and then you have 0.79

01:34:17.040 millions of people traveling to iran annually to visit like that's exactly the reason for 1.00

01:34:23.520 something like this but but the low iq islamists and communists they don't get it 1.00

01:34:30.800 persia is on parade a parade of the great warriors of persian history

01:34:35.920 led by the prehistoric men in skins who were the first of all.

01:34:49.040 Here are the war chariots of the Archimenean kings

01:34:52.840 who conquered and civilized the ancient world,

01:34:55.800 whose trumpets were a call of peace. 0.98

01:35:05.920 Another thing I want to point out, guys, so the movie 300 did Iranians dirty.

01:35:27.480 The movie 300 is the most inaccurate depiction of Iranians I have ever seen

01:35:35.040 Because in that movie, they basically they depicted, you know, Iranians and Xerxes as like these, I don't know, savages who were half naked barbarians.

01:35:45.240 And, you know, they were pierced and whatever. Nothing farther from the truth. 0.96

01:35:50.740 In fact, it was the like Greeks and Romans that were usually half naked. 1.00

01:35:55.180 This is what Iranians looked like. 1.00

01:35:57.020 So, you know, when you're thinking about all those ancient battles, when you think about the movie 300, this is what Iranians actually looked like.

01:36:07.000 Right. Not not that like Iranians, the Persian Empire basically invented military formations and battalions and all that stuff.

01:36:16.500 Right. So all of like the modern day, like military organization stuff, you guys, I'm not a military person, but like, you know, those battalions and, you know, all the groups and orders and whatever.

01:36:26.280 the Persian Empire invented that. That is another invention of the Persian Empire because the

01:36:30.600 military was very, very precise and very organized. So again, like the movie 300,

01:36:36.800 utter nonsense, totally did us dirty because we never looked like that. This is what we

01:36:43.020 looked like. We were fully dressed, fully clothed. Okay. So keep that in mind.

01:36:56.280 these were the persian infantry with wicker shields sons of cyrus and darius who ruled so 0.57

01:37:16.680 many peoples but awarded them all the rights of free men there were no so yeah see this is what

01:37:23.560 this is what the uh persians in the movie 300 should have looked like because this is historically

01:37:30.120 accurate this is what we looked like uh you know 3 000 years ago the movie 300 is utter nonsense

01:37:38.200 i refuse to watch that i think i watched it one time when it first came out and i didn't

01:37:43.160 even watch it in theaters i think i like downloaded it or something you know off like

01:37:47.560 um napster or whatever it was called at the time so thankfully i didn't even pay for it because it 0.98

01:37:51.640 it was garbage movie utter crap utter nonsense completely historically inaccurate and completely 0.98

01:37:56.920 racist towards iranians by the way this is this is what the iranians in the movie 300 0.99

01:38:02.280 it should have looked like lives in the Persian Empire I love how they're like juxtaposing do you

01:38:27.940 see this like so the you could see like the similarity between the guys you know the the

01:38:33.160 people who are dressed as the infantry and then the carvings on the wall right so basically all

01:38:39.100 those carvings on the walls of persepolis are being brought to life here like it's just gives 0.98

01:38:45.740 me goosebumps fun facts uh in case you guys didn't know there were also um women in the 0.52

01:39:14.380 Persian army. In fact, there are several famous Iranian women in the Persian Empire who were

01:39:21.480 generals and commanders. One person I can think of off the top of my head is

01:39:26.380 Pantea al-Tishbod. She was a very, very famous general in the Persian army. So in case you

01:39:35.980 didn't know, in the Persian Empire, women and men were equal.

01:39:44.380 For more than 10 years, archaeological experts studying the records which remain pieced together how the old warriors must have looked.

01:40:02.460 No stirrups for the cavalry. Stirrups were invented centuries later.

01:40:07.200 Every historic detail in this parade, so far as we can know today, is exact.

01:40:14.380 this is the other thing as well so this is what this is what the persian empire was 2500 years

01:40:29.560 ago um so you can see like well-dressed organized civilized um like everything you would think of 0.66

01:40:37.320 in a modern society right and yet somehow the islamists you know they claim that islam like 0.94

01:40:44.440 brought civilization to iran like it's the biggest nonsense islam um the the muslim conquest of persia 0.79

01:40:52.200 was the first biggest downgrade um in human civilization and then the islamic republic and 1.00

01:41:00.200 then you know after the shah here all his efforts to modernize iran bring us forward 0.92

01:41:05.320 the second biggest downgrade is the islamic republic which took over in 1979

01:41:10.840 and then you're basically seeing exactly what happened in 650 happened again in 1979 because

01:41:17.960 in 1979 iran was a modern thriving secular prosperous country and then islam and sharia 0.79

01:41:25.960 law came turned the country right back into a seventh century islamic hellhole and overnight 0.98

01:41:31.800 took the country back 1400 years so this is what iran was like before islam was invented 0.97

01:41:38.680 he found like thousands of years before islam was invented this is what iran was like

01:41:48.920 this wooden fortress pulled by a span of oxen was one of the first siege weapons

01:42:01.800 Could you imagine, okay let me just pull back a little bit here, could you imagine like if you're,

01:42:29.420 i don't know like a greek or roman warrior or something and then all of a sudden you see this

01:42:34.220 like giant siege tower coming at you i don't know i mean if i saw that coming at me and i was like

01:42:40.540 the opposite side and i see like this giant like look at that

01:42:47.180 right like this is like a i don't know how big is that that's like as big as like a

01:42:51.580 three-story building at least um if i saw that coming towards me i would be like

01:42:56.940 guys like i'm i'm nope nope i'm nothing i would just like give up and just run away and what's

01:43:01.980 interesting actually in fact is a lot of greek historians have written about how sometimes um

01:43:07.980 when you know the the persians were going to battle like the greeks or the romans or whatever

01:43:12.300 um when the persians arrived because they were so um in military formation like what you're seeing

01:43:19.660 here because they were so organized well-dressed uh a lot of like military equipment and then they

01:43:25.820 had these like giant siege towers or whatever just the literal act of the persian army showing up

01:43:34.300 was enough to like cause the other side to just surrender um and we actually one of the other ways

01:43:40.780 we know that women iranian women were in the army is because uh greek historians greek and roman 0.97

01:43:47.500 historians wrote about uh wrote about women in the persian army in fact according to the greek

01:43:54.140 and roman historians i'll see if i can find a reference i can remember i think it was herodotus

01:43:58.220 i can't remember but uh they basically wrote that iranian women were even more fiercer than iranian

01:44:06.780 men and so apparently whenever there was going to be like a battle or a fight um when the persians 0.99

01:44:14.300 showed up if they were being led by a woman general the other side would just run away they 0.54

01:44:21.660 were like there's no way we're gonna handle this like they were more afraid of the iranian women 0.75

01:44:28.300 than the men like that's how much um iranian women were um powerful and that's how much strength and

01:44:35.340 that's how fierce they were and so there's a reason that um you know iranians you know from

01:44:40.540 the time of the persian empire we always compare ourselves to lions and you can see even our flag

01:44:45.660 has the lion and son on it right and so uh we refer to like very strong um people as shirmart

01:44:53.100 or shirzan which means like lion man lion woman a reference to brave and courageous and ferocious

01:44:59.260 so there you go a little piece of history uh iranian women even more fierce than iranian

01:45:04.060 men when it comes to the military in the persian empire and if an iranian woman was leading the way 0.96

01:45:09.740 more often than not the other side would just give up and be like nope we're not dealing because 0.99

01:45:13.820 there's a woman there she's ruthless thought you might want to 1.00

01:45:35.340 in these frail oared boats armies soldiers of wagon train was said to have stretched

01:45:41.500 28 miles crossed the mediterranean over the centuries through dynasties that have spread

01:45:48.220 long before christ of modern times persia has prevailed conquerors from the time of alexander

01:45:55.500 have adopted persian ways the spirit of the country has risen did you guys catch that like

01:46:02.780 all the other militaries learned from the persian army like even alexander the great improved his

01:46:07.980 his military tactics by learning from the Persians and the Persian army again and again and like I'm

01:46:15.960 not denouncing it right like I'm not complaining or anything or criticizing I'm just saying like

01:46:19.780 you know it's just interesting to see how much um how much the Persian empire contributed

01:46:26.520 to the world and contributed to other civilizations as well and you know mad respect for the Greeks

01:46:33.180 and romans i love you guys um you're like brothers and sisters you know the the beef from like 3 000

01:46:38.460 years ago we don't care about that and i've been to greece beautiful country one of my favorite

01:46:42.540 countries i love it the trumpets have never ceased sounding

01:46:47.500 that's the other thing i want to point out so um the people in the boats that are like they're

01:47:06.240 rowing okay those are not slaves that's the one thing i want to clarify the people who are like

01:47:12.180 rowing the boats no slaves in various other civilizations especially at the time um and you

01:47:19.060 know even like in the in the era of slave trade which i spoke about in um one of my previous

01:47:23.700 live streams um many other civilizations used slaves um especially for like the boats and

01:47:30.260 rowing and stuff the persians did not there was there was no slavery so even those the spirit of

01:47:34.740 the country has risen again and again again the trumpets never ceased sounding

01:47:46.500 is it called the galley i think it's the galley yeah so you see these people so these people in

01:47:51.460 the galley if this was any other civilization they would usually be slaves right and you know

01:47:56.420 how slaves are dressed like just like a loin cloth or whatever but you can see even from the

01:48:01.220 way that they're dressed these people are not slaves um so like slavery was not like a core

01:48:08.820 part of the persian empire again it goes back to cyrus the great and how he whenever he went

01:48:14.980 somewhere and he conquered he would actually free all of the slaves right like he would free them

01:48:20.980 from their enslavement and then they would become citizens of the persian empire equal to everyone

01:48:27.460 else and so here you can see like again like no slaves here these are all soldiers

01:48:49.220 during the next 500 years years in which the great wall of china was built

01:48:53.940 in which Hannibal crossed the Alps

01:48:56.940 and Julius Caesar conquered Gaul.

01:49:00.520 These were the Parthian soldiers of the Arsacid dynasty.

01:49:23.940 sorry i'm seeing so gandalf looked it up gandalf thank you so much for that so um

01:49:36.580 gandalf is saying in the comments that the net positive from this uh celebration was 175

01:49:45.640 million dollars worth of tourism in the first year alone so after this after this um tourism

01:49:53.660 to iran exploded and so every single penny that the shah spent on the 2500 year anniversary of

01:50:01.740 the persian empire uh came back like tenfold right like that's that's how economics works

01:50:09.260 and that's why various governments uh have a budget for you know tourism heritage culture 0.99

01:50:18.380 every single government well functioning government has that it's only like the islamists 0.90

01:50:22.300 who don't do that right because all they care about um is islam and that's why they're the 1.00

01:50:26.780 ones complaining because they you know for them nothing else matters so again everyone who's 0.74

01:50:31.740 complaining about the shah's extravagant party in the desert it's all a bunch of nonsense either

01:50:37.420 they never looked into it um and you know they never bothered to to check the facts or they're 0.89

01:50:43.580 islamists and they're just you know part of spreading that takiyah right because they want

01:50:47.820 to justify keeping iran occupied by the islamic republic but as you can see it was it was literally 0.78

01:50:55.980 a celebration honoring 2500 years of the persian empire right i mean it's no different than um

01:51:04.780 celebrating canada day or the fourth of july right no one complains about in fact it's expected you're

01:51:11.020 expected to invest and spend and promote tourism and heritage and multicultural you know culture

01:51:17.100 and all that stuff that's exactly what the shah did in 1971 and i'm glad he did it and in fact i

01:51:25.660 wish he did it every year i wish he did it every year and i wish he spent even more than he did

01:51:30.700 because every single penny was an investment in iranian identity in iranian heritage and

01:51:38.460 in Iranian tourism. People saw this and then they were like, I want to go visit Iran.

01:52:08.460 So, again, as you can see, the movie 300 did us dirty.

01:52:20.500 The movie 300 is a lie. 1.00

01:52:22.300 Persians never, ever, ever, ever looked like that. 1.00

01:52:26.840 Ever. 0.99

01:52:38.460 The Sassanians, with their sugar loaf hats, which are still worn in Persia today, followed during the centuries when Mohammed founded Islam, and the powers of ancient Rome sank into final decline. 0.97

01:53:08.460 Thank you. 0.95

01:53:38.460 The Saffirids ruled Persia in the age when Charmin was crowned the Holy Roman Emperor 0.93

01:53:50.060 in 800 a.d so 880 a.d would have been after the muslim conquest of persia 0.69

01:54:06.460 but as you can tell um the the persians you know even though they you know had been you know

01:54:12.060 colonized by islam they still kept their iranian identity and so um you know everything about this

01:54:18.860 is distinctly persian right it is no similarity i mean there's similarities of course in the middle

01:54:24.300 east everyone can you know dress a certain way and act a certain way you know similarities but

01:54:29.020 um iran maintained its own distinct cultural identity even after the muslim conquest of persia

01:54:48.860 the dial mites were contemporaries of william the conqueror the battle of hastings 1066

01:54:58.020 sorry so gandalf yeah the soldiers i told you guys in the beginning um these aren't actors

01:55:06.440 most of them are actual soldiers in the um imperial army of of the shahanshah yeah so

01:55:13.140 these are these aren't actors these are actual soldiers that's why they're able to march in

01:55:18.400 formation right like these aren't actors these are soldiers from the imperial army of iran and

01:55:23.840 of course guarded javidon the what is this the um immortal guard division who are participating in

01:55:29.760 this that's why everything is so precise like this is a this is a military parade guys this isn't like

01:55:35.760 um a bunch of actors cosplaying right like this is not um i don't know like disneyland where

01:55:41.280 you know people dressed up like princesses and pretend no these are actual soldiers um in the army

01:55:47.360 and they're just wearing different outfits right like they're wearing outfits from various um eras

01:55:54.300 during the persian empire but this is yeah like this is a military parade it's showcasing um the

01:56:00.880 military technology of the persian empire starting from cyrus the great and then working their way

01:56:05.720 forward columbus was discovering america when the safavids were on the march

01:56:35.720 The Afsharits were a short-lived dynasty in Persian terms who belonged to the time when Barney Prince Charlie raised the flag of the Stuart Rebellion in Scotland. 0.85

01:57:05.720 The Afsharets mounted muskets on swivels, on their camels.

01:57:16.660 the suns although they can scarcely have heard about it fought their battles 0.88

01:57:39.540 at the time of the declaration of american independence

01:57:42.540 ¶¶

01:58:12.540 The style of their uniform shows that the Kajas belong to the Napoleonic era.

02:00:12.840 on the members tab so thank you so much for that support there um but one thing i want to point out

02:00:18.960 like how symbolic is this where you have a soldier who's dressed up uh you know from the time of the

02:00:26.100 Cyrus the Great. So 2,500 years ago. And then in front of them, in front of him is the modern day

02:00:33.380 military, right, of the Pahlavi dynasty. So it's like, it's a direct link, right? It's so symbolic

02:00:39.440 in a way. It's a direct link between the founding of the Persian empire back, you know, in 2,500

02:00:49.500 years ago all the way to modern times and it's like you know the the spirit of cyrus the great

02:00:58.080 is looking down on the current um imperial army of the pahlevi dynasty

02:01:07.740 such a beautiful scene here very very symbolic i love this

02:01:19.500 These are the household troops of the Shah.

02:01:38.900 Here is the new army. 0.89

02:01:41.320 Okay, so see the women? 1.00

02:01:44.100 See the women in the army? 0.86

02:01:45.380 do you see how much women were respected and valued prior to 1979 we were a normal functioning

02:01:58.160 country we were going towards um like we were modernizing and women were treated equally in

02:02:05.840 fact women in Iran had the right to vote before women in Switzerland and Portugal women in Iran

02:02:12.080 had the right to vote in 1963 there was no suffragette movement in iran because it was

02:02:18.240 the top-down approach because the shah the shah of iran recognized the importance of equality

02:02:26.320 between men and women and so he dictated it from the top down he said he said from now on no one

02:02:31.440 had to convince them he was the one who made the announcement it was part of the white revolution

02:02:35.360 that actually pissed off the islamists by the way that's uh for for another another live stream

02:02:40.080 because i could go on and on about that but you know something after the islamic republic took 0.99

02:02:45.680 over um not only did they turn our country into a seventh century islamic hellhole they brought in 0.65

02:02:51.280 sharia law and then they eliminated all of this so all of the advances that the shah had made 0.96

02:02:57.120 not just to modernize iran but to make sure that women were treated equally and that women had the 0.98

02:03:03.280 same opportunities and that women were respected all that was taken away by the islamic republic

02:03:08.160 And again, remember, women in the army is not a new concept to Iran, because even Greek and Roman historians wrote about the, you know, generals and leaders and Navy commanders in the Persian army 2,500 years ago who were women, right?

02:03:31.380 Pontiel Atishbaud was one.

02:03:33.740 I think Rukstana was another one.

02:03:35.400 There's, you know, I mean, if you look them up, they're there.

02:03:37.960 this isn't even something in my history right this isn't even something in you know just only in

02:03:44.200 Iranian history this is something that's confirmed by the Greeks and the Romans the Greeks and the

02:03:48.760 Romans even confirmed that there were women in the Persian army 2500 years ago because that that

02:03:56.280 concept of equality between a man and a woman is something that was brought about with Cyrus the 0.82

02:04:02.440 great and the founding of the persian empire the shah is created to develop literacy health

02:04:07.800 and international development a peace army oh there we go i want to go back

02:04:23.000 these are the household troops of the shah

02:04:30.440 here is the new army which the shah has created to develop literacy health

02:04:46.320 and international development a peace army to fight poverty hunger and social injustice

02:04:52.960 did you did you guys catch that so he literally created a division within the army that he called

02:05:00.620 the peace army and the peace army the purpose of the peace army was to fight illiteracy and

02:05:07.820 poverty and hunger so he was literally paying Iranians to go in various parts of the country

02:05:14.000 to eradicate poverty to educate people to raise the literacy rates this is what he was doing this 0.91

02:05:20.740 how much he was investing in iran and yet the islamists continue to attack him right because 0.97

02:05:26.340 that's all they have it's all takia and lies but when you actually look at the facts when you look 0.98

02:05:32.260 at history right this no one can deny this this is the truth you are seeing video actual video 0.71

02:05:40.020 footage of the investment that the shah of iran and the queen by the way the the empress of iran

02:05:45.940 we cannot forget her she's super super important to this as well she played a huge

02:05:53.300 huge role in the white revolution and we don't talk enough about her contributions 0.85

02:05:57.460 um but this this was their investment this was their investment and the islamists did not like

02:06:02.900 this they did not like seeing women become educated women you know get more positions

02:06:08.900 of authority they did not like that because it's against sharia law international cause

02:06:14.980 in which persia wishes to play her part

02:06:33.940 so i just want to respond to someone in the chat so someone said do i have an agenda i 100

02:06:39.780 have an agenda. My agenda is to overthrow the Islamic Republic that took my country of Iran 0.69

02:06:46.700 hostage in 1979 and brought Sharia law. My agenda is to get rid of Sharia law in Iran. It's to get 1.00

02:06:54.460 rid of the Islamic Republic in Iran. And I want my country of Iran, where I was born in, to go back 1.00

02:07:01.780 to being a functioning, normal, secular country, just like it was prior to 1979, which is what

02:07:09.080 we're seeing in this video here. So my agenda is to make Iran great again.

02:07:39.080 oh my gosh guys i saw canada okay we have to go back here we have to go back i saw canada

02:07:44.960 okay so for those of you who haven't been with us from the beginning um make sure you go back

02:07:50.080 uh and watch but so what uh during this um uh 25 year anniversary the shah of iran he invited uh

02:07:58.720 i think 60 dignitaries from around the world um including you know people from canada united

02:08:03.640 today it's all over the world you know royalty uh political leaders um so they were all there

02:08:08.720 watching and i think we're just seeing the flags go by so i want to go back because i saw the flag

02:08:13.280 of canada um and you know i am canadian as well and i love canada um not what it's to come recently

02:08:20.060 with all the islamists here but you know we have to fight for canada too but i just like how cool 0.82

02:08:25.320 is that guys how cool is that um that you know iran used to be a normal country and then you have

02:08:33.020 all these flags of western countries who were there as honored guests right let's let's go back

02:08:39.440 okay so that's the united nations united nations okay is corrupt now but that's i mean they were

02:08:52.500 always kind of shady but you know back in the in the early 70s united nations was was still

02:08:58.040 pretty functional but they're totally corrupt right now like they're just overrun with communist 0.86

02:09:02.920 and Islamists but it's it's so cool to see the United Nations was there as well

02:09:11.640 Iran actually played a really important role in founding various aspects of the

02:09:17.020 United Nations okay so these are all the flags I'm gonna I'm gonna go like I'm

02:09:28.480 I'm going to pause and go slowly here.

02:09:30.960 Guys, let me know.

02:09:34.440 No, that doesn't make it bigger.

02:09:36.080 It's still the same.

02:09:36.640 Okay, so let me know if you see the flag of your country.

02:09:40.080 Let me know in the chat.

02:09:42.760 I'm going to pause a little bit.

02:09:47.120 You want to make it bigger for me too.

02:09:52.660 It's kind of hard.

02:09:53.480 Oh, I see Canada.

02:09:54.460 dude so canada's right there in the in um in the middle frame you see the one with the white

02:10:00.900 and then the red in the middle and then the two um the two red on the end so it's in the bottom

02:10:08.500 so it's in the center frame bottom right um there's like a red flag and then you see the

02:10:17.080 the flag of canada that's the mate that's the maple leaf flag well

02:10:22.380 what there's no other real flag that's the flag of canada canada's flag is the

02:10:27.020 canadian maple leaf okay

02:10:30.920 it's hard

02:10:36.860 it's also hard because the the color quality

02:10:44.640 is not the greatest

02:10:46.620 so it's difficult to

02:10:48.660 I think I think I saw like

02:10:54.440 was that UK or Australia

02:10:55.880 oh there's is that is that America no I don't know

02:11:04.780 that's not America

02:11:06.400 what what flag looks like America but only has one star on it

02:11:15.040 huh i'm sure i'm sure i can find a list there's probably like on wikipedia or something there's

02:11:20.960 going to be a list of you know all the the dignitaries who attended oh it's chili okay

02:11:26.000 thank you chili all right appreciate that sorry i'm not as good like middle eastern flags terrorist

02:11:32.080 flags i'm good with but the other flags of other countries not as much so i appreciate that all

02:11:37.280 All right, Chile, Liberia.

02:11:40.620 Yeah, there's a bunch of Soviet era flags, too, because this was something.

02:11:47.240 Okay, what's this one?

02:11:49.540 What's the, is that Australia?

02:11:52.940 Okay, Australia.

02:11:53.900 So I was right.

02:11:54.700 I was right.

02:11:55.300 I did see Australia there.

02:11:56.520 And then, you know, here's more, like, Iranian women who are in the army who are carrying the, holding the flags.

02:12:07.280 How cool is that?

02:12:15.280 So cool.

02:12:25.280 If you did a flank quiz, I would lose.

02:12:37.280 the fountains so that was the military parade i definitely definitely enjoyed that so that was like

02:12:46.420 one of the highlights of the 25 year anniversary how cool is that i kind of wish we could do that

02:12:55.460 every year i mean it's just such a huge draw right it's think of like the um like the macy's

02:13:02.180 Thanksgiving parade, right? Like how much tourism does the Macy's Thanksgiving parade draw? And

02:13:08.120 it's, you know, just a parade for, you know, fun and stuff like that. Imagine if, imagine if you

02:13:13.600 could go to Persepolis, right? The ancient city of the Persian empire, you could go to Persepolis

02:13:21.440 and then you could, you know, literally see a parade showcasing the history of the Persian

02:13:29.520 empire starting with the military of Cyrus the Great and working all the way to to modern times

02:13:37.160 like that's fantastic like that would be a huge huge tourist attraction and highlight

02:13:43.780 and seeing something like this and seeing the foresight and the thought and the investment

02:13:49.900 that the Shah made into something like that to promote Iran to advance Iran to bring multicultural

02:13:55.820 culturalism sorry to bring tourism to Iran um you know and again the someone someone said in the

02:14:05.060 chat right like that was actually a net benefit of 175 million dollars so uh every single cent

02:14:14.420 that the Shah invested in Iran by the way this was good for the economy it created jobs um it

02:14:20.080 highlighted local craftsmen like you know think of all the people that were employed to

02:14:25.100 sew all of those outfits right think of all the people employed to work there this is such a huge

02:14:31.720 investment for the economy itself right um and of course a huge investment for iran and that

02:14:39.760 is what spurred tourism after that people wanted to come to iran they wanted to see that so

02:14:45.500 it's such a shame. It's such a shame that the Islamists, right, and the communists lied about 0.67

02:14:53.720 this celebration. Because, again, they still push that narrative. They say the Shala was corrupt. 0.92

02:15:01.960 He held a party in the desert. But they never tell you what it was, who did it, what it was for,

02:15:08.300 nothing like that, right? The way that they frame it, right? Again, this goes into the Islamist

02:15:12.900 takiyah narrative so keep in mind you can never trust anything they say um they never say that 0.56

02:15:20.020 this was a national celebration to honor the 2500 year anniversary 2500 years of the persian empire 0.52

02:15:31.540 is what was actually going on but the islamists make it seem like this was some private party

02:15:39.460 in the desert and the shah just randomly spent money on like whatever which is complete and 0.83

02:15:45.140 utter nonsense unfortunately the reason that they were able to share the the mullahs right the the 0.81

02:15:52.420 ayatollahs and the islamists and the communists the reason they were able to share uh this lie

02:16:00.100 and and promote this lie and spread this lie is because back in the 70s there was no access to 0.89

02:16:07.460 information the way we have it today, right? So people were not able to go and independently

02:16:13.240 fact check and verify whether or not the Ayatollahs were lying. And people, you know,

02:16:20.480 they believed the mullahs, they were like, this is a man of God, he must be speaking the truth, 1.00

02:16:25.360 not knowing that they're a bunch of like corrupt inbred savages, right? Who were hell bent on 1.00

02:16:30.920 power. So that military parade you saw, that's the desert in the party, or sorry, party in the

02:16:38.460 desert that the Islamists and communists used to attack the Shah. So now you know where it comes 0.65

02:16:43.720 from, right? And for all of you who are in the chat, and all of those who are watching, the next

02:16:49.640 time some ignorant person says, the Shah was corrupt, he had a party in the desert. Now you 0.99

02:16:55.400 know exactly what it was. And you can fight back, you can counter it. And you can say, have you

02:16:59.520 actually gone to check into it? Or are you just, you know, a low IQ person who's propagating

02:17:05.960 nonsense and lies? Are you an Islamist who's spreading takia? Like, what is your motivation 1.00

02:17:12.540 behind this? And I'm telling you guys, the internet is free, you can fact check everything

02:17:17.740 these people say. And it is all, it's all a lie, right? But unfortunately, back in the 70s,

02:17:25.320 people did not have access to information the way that we have access to information today

02:17:30.520 right people didn't have internet they didn't have cell phones right even like even even like 0.96

02:17:36.760 libraries were not as as um you know information was not as easily accessible so when an ayatollah

02:17:43.480 when like an islamic cleric told you something you would believe them because man you know he's

02:17:48.280 a man of god or whatever um but now you know the truth now you know the truth about what it was and

02:17:53.640 And in fact, I said this before, I'll say it again. 0.77

02:17:56.900 I don't think the Shah spent nearly as much. 0.84

02:17:59.820 I wish he would have spent even more, right?

02:18:03.360 And anyone who complains about how much he spent, I say, good, I'm glad.

02:18:06.840 I'm glad the Shah spent money. 0.76

02:18:09.760 I just wish he had spent more.

02:18:11.240 I wish he did this every year because that would be a huge tourist attraction.

02:18:15.940 Guys, let me tell you something.

02:18:16.900 And again, I was a politician for seven years.

02:18:20.960 I was in politics for 10 years.

02:18:22.220 every single government has a budget to promote heritage and tourism and you know guys i love

02:18:29.620 canada i really do uh proud canadian but let me tell you some of the things that the government

02:18:35.880 spends money on is ridiculous and that's because canada is such a new country that you know it

02:18:42.340 i guess it's not really as interesting to people i don't know but let me tell you something the 0.70

02:18:48.220 the liberal government of Ontario about 10 years ago when the liberals were still in power

02:18:53.120 in order to attract tourism to Toronto they spent a hundred thousand dollars on a giant

02:19:01.780 rubber duck okay so they spent a hundred thousand dollars to rent a giant rubber duck to bring it

02:19:11.100 to Toronto so that people would come and take selfies with it why because that attracts

02:19:17.240 business investment tourism attracts investment tourism is good for the economy governments will

02:19:25.360 spend money on tourism because it is not a waste of dollars it is an investment in your economy

02:19:33.440 that's exactly what the party in the desert was it was an investment and i mean you can't even

02:19:40.260 compare and you if you guys think i'm joking about the rubber duck i'm not um

02:19:45.220 um let me pull it up like I'll show you guys it's um here I mean let me pull this up

02:19:58.900 right where's the image no I don't want that

02:20:03.760 what's this okay um

02:20:08.920 no I don't want the actual news source I just want the image wait let me just let me just open up the

02:20:14.080 because we don't we don't really care about the actual news source here um all right now

02:20:20.900 i have to share this so let me come here share screen share

02:20:27.780 okay move okay you see this guys do you see this

02:20:35.480 the liberal government the provincial government in ontario spent a hundred thousand dollars on

02:20:43.780 a giant rubber duck. Why? Because it would attract tourists to Toronto. And people were literally

02:20:53.660 coming to Toronto to take selfies with the giant duck. And then of course, you know, then they'll

02:20:59.240 spend money in businesses and they'll go shopping and they maybe stay at a hotel, like stuff like

02:21:04.900 this is good for the economy. This is like, this is stupid. I think this is actually super 1.00

02:21:09.780 ridiculous and stupid but ultimately it's a good investment because it gives back to the economy 1.00

02:21:16.640 right and if canada if ontario can do something as ridiculous as like a giant rubber duck for a 1.00

02:21:26.620 hundred thousand dollars right and that's that's considered legitimate and yet inspired the poets

02:21:32.900 and yet the communists and islamists are complaining about the fact that the shah

02:21:38.200 of Iran at the time invested money into Iran not for some random thing with no connection

02:21:47.320 to Iran right like the what what connection does a rubber duck have to Canada or Toronto

02:21:53.280 nothing nothing it's just like a you know random interesting attraction there but the Shah instead

02:22:01.000 invested in Iranian identity and Iranian heritage and Iranian culture right real

02:22:08.560 tangible things work worth every penny the investment he made in that

02:22:15.640 desert party that the Islamists call it was 100% the correct thing to do I am 0.91

02:22:22.060 glad he did it like I said I wish he invested even more I wish he invested 0.85

02:22:27.520 even more um but thank god that he had the foresight not only to do that but to have people

02:22:34.440 record it so that future generations of Iranians myself included are able to appreciate and enjoy

02:22:42.140 that like what he did was a gift to our civilization this the celebration he put on was a gift to the

02:22:52.820 Iranian nation because it gave us one more thing that we can not only be proud of but one more

02:23:00.460 thing we can reference to submit bring that connection between us and the founders of the

02:23:09.360 Persian empire right he he he made that link easy for us to do as Iranians that 2,500 year old link

02:23:17.280 he brought it to life worth every penny, worth every penny. And that's why the Islamists didn't 0.98

02:23:24.380 like him. Because again, guys, remember, remember what I said at the beginning, the Ayatollahs,

02:23:30.020 they don't like nationalism, they don't like patriotism. Do you guys remember that? 0.93

02:23:36.660 Let me bring it up again. So now that you saw that amazing celebration of Iranian heritage,

02:23:44.340 right let's go back and bring up the evil man again this is the founder of the islamic republic 1.00

02:23:51.780 a d a demonic evil guy so this is the guy by the way this is the guy who was who spread the lie 0.95

02:23:58.720 about the shah was corrupt and he had a party in the desert right it's this this demonic evil 0.99

02:24:05.920 criminal right here and listen to what he says because he has an agenda the islamists have an 0.99

02:24:12.920 agenda. It's not by accident that they attack the Shah. The Shah was very nationalistic. The Shah 0.96

02:24:22.860 loved Iran. He loved Iranian people. He was a proud Iranian patriot, okay? And if you notice

02:24:33.100 what he's about to say, okay, it's going to resonate with those of you who might be in the

02:24:41.460 UK or Canada or United States or elsewhere, and you're being told that if you are patriotic,

02:24:49.620 you're racist. Does that ring a bell? Does that ring a bell? You're being told that if you're

02:24:54.880 patriotic, that if you wave the flag of your country, you're racist. It's not by accident,

02:25:02.000 guys, that anti-nationalistic perspective is part and parcel of the Islamist ideology. It's part and 0.96

02:25:13.640 parcel of the communist ideology. That's exactly what happened to Iran. They went after the 0.92

02:25:20.180 nationals. They went after our patriotism. Listen to what he says right now. I could play this video

02:25:27.820 a thousand times and it's still not enough every single person in the world needs to watch this 1.00

02:25:34.140 video because this will explain to you how the islamic terrorists colonize and conquer and erase 0.99

02:25:44.140 national identities so he says islam has come to get rid of this useless talk and then he says 0.99

02:30:27.460 it took about 15 years to hit that critical critical point and in those 15 years maybe if

02:30:36.500 people had um taken the threat more seriously maybe if iranians maybe if the shah had taken 0.54

02:30:43.700 the more the threat more seriously we wouldn't be in the situation that we are today but 0.57

02:30:50.660 unfortunately here we are and 47 years later we are still paying the price for our mistake in blood 0.94

02:30:58.660 iranians are being murdered every day those who speak out but that wasn't enough for them it 0.75

02:31:04.580 wasn't enough for them to take over iran it wasn't enough for them to to take our flag away from us 0.95

02:32:15.300 freedom of expression but that freedom of expression is how they bring their ideology in

02:32:24.100 because the freedom of expression that the they you they take advantage of the freedoms that are

02:32:30.820 given to people in western countries to promote and advance their jihadi agenda

02:32:38.740 listen to this again guys not my words this is the words of the founder of the islamic republic

02:32:46.260 by the way the islamic republic is the big brother of hamas the houthis hezbollah all

02:32:51.540 of the islamic terrorists traced back to the islamic republic which took my country hostage

02:33:29.380 i'm putting it in the live chat here you guys okay so save this video save this video and show

02:33:38.660 it to everyone because this is not coming from me these are coming from the people who colonized 0.67

02:33:44.260 iran who turned iran into a seventh century islamic hellhole and there is an agenda behind 0.72

02:33:52.180 these people coming to your countries and burning your flags there is an agenda behind them making 0.68

02:33:58.500 you feel like you're racist for wanting to put your country first right why is it that anyone 0.93

02:34:04.180 who wants to be a nationalist is being demonized why because nationalism is the enemy of islam

02:34:11.140 they say it not me nationalism is the barrier to them being able to come in and take over your 0.78

02:34:17.380 societies and destabilize. 0.94

02:34:40.980 And so this next part is where he talks about the Shah of Iran, right? 0.93

02:34:44.560 The Shah of Iran was a Muslim, but he was a normal, regular Muslim, okay?

02:34:49.200 Like, he was a patriotic man, too.

02:34:51.680 Like, he loved Iran, and he always said, I'm Iranian first, you know, Iran first, the nation

02:34:59.080 for second, and then, you know, I'm a Muslim third, right?

02:35:03.080 So he said, I'm Iranian first, and then I'm Muslim.

02:35:05.840 That was not good enough.

02:35:07.280 Even though the Shah was Muslim, that was not good enough for this guy, because this 0.98

02:35:11.100 guy, right, it's not about, like, Muslims. 0.99

02:35:14.560 it's about islamic colonization and jihad right so being a muslim is not good enough 0.87

02:35:22.560 unless unless you are part of the global caliphate you know sharia whatever listen listen to this 0.79

02:35:29.440 part so when you know when he says you know i'm not going to say the i word because that's

02:35:36.720 disrespectful and i'm not a savage islamist but you know when he he's referring to the shah

02:35:42.080 abroad so this is right after the shah left iran in 1979 and then this evil demonic man khomeini 0.63

02:35:50.160 went to to iran right um and then he found it so this is like within a week or two

02:35:56.800 of him going back to iran so this is what he says about the shah who was a muslim

02:36:02.240 and this is what this is what the islamists think of all the moderate muslims out there

02:36:12.080 did you see that so he's he's saying that the shah of iran said i'm iranian first

02:36:24.560 i'm a patriot second and i'm a muslim third that was not good enough for this guy

02:36:30.400 that is not good enough for the islamic republic okay so guys you have to wake up here 0.69

02:36:38.000 to what is happening right so he's basically saying that if you put your country first 0.91

02:36:45.680 that's not islam he says it this isn't islam he's saying it

02:36:51.840 so what happened to iran guys it is it is starting to happen in your countries and if you don't wake

02:36:57.360 up you don't by the time the next you know within one generation maybe even less within like a

02:37:03.040 decade you might even be outnumbered and if you're outnumbered

02:37:11.680 if you're outnumbered like good luck guys good luck you guys need to wake up

02:37:16.000 to what's going on here because these people are not coming to your countries

02:37:20.400 to assimilate they're coming to your countries to

02:37:23.120 invade that's why they're burning your flags that's why they're making you feel

02:37:27.520 racist for wanting to put your country first

02:37:33.040 All right. There's my little rant on, you know, all the Islamists who say party in the desert. No, it was not a party in the desert. It was celebrating. It was celebrating Iranian heritage. It was celebrating 2,500 years worth of Iranian heritage. And I'm so glad the Shah did that. So glad he did that. And thank you. Thank you for him. I love him. And today is his birthday. 1.00

02:38:00.640 So, Mohamed, Riza, Shah, Karalo de Mubarak, Zad Ruzet, Shah, Bash, Bash, Zad Ruzet, Khojastabad, and yeah, happy birthday, happy birthday. Great man. I would say, I would dare say, you know, it's hard to say he's a second or third, because, you know, Cyrus is up there for sure. Cyrus is number one, Cyrus the Great.

02:38:24.300 And then between him and his father, Rezoshah the Great, difficult to say, because they were both amazing, amazing kings, right?

02:38:34.000 Both of them, huge historical value to the country.

02:38:38.620 This old land, centuries ago, whisper their watery music.

02:38:42.960 as the flags drift in the evening breeze

02:38:50.620 after the formalities of the state reception

02:38:53.480 the shah and his empress invite his guests

02:38:57.040 to a traditional Persian party

02:38:59.080 love this, I love this

02:39:08.680 the way it works is that he doesn't sit down himself

02:39:11.800 Moving among his guests, he makes them all happy.

02:39:15.800 The music and the food are traditional.

02:39:41.800 it wouldn't have been complete without the dancing girls

02:40:03.540 i love this 0.57

02:40:06.600 like this is this is such a beautiful thing like you know showcasing iranian heritage culture art

02:40:16.200 dance right these are things that we're proud of as part of our iranian identity and yet the 0.93

02:40:21.780 islamic republic took all of this away from us right this is haram this is haram in islam 0.77

02:40:26.220 this is haram in islam 0.97

02:40:27.960 It could have been the first occasion

02:40:55.100 in most of the VIP's lives

02:40:57.260 that so many of them who are normally whisked about in plush limousines have crowded into coaches

02:41:03.820 but what coaches they were carrying them from the pavilions at persepolis to the airport at shiraz

02:41:10.940 then by air to tehran the modern capital of persia

02:41:14.060 just in case they were still hungry confections were served on the way

02:41:27.420 look at this look at this guys guys do you see this these are like these are all the iranian

02:41:38.980 people okay like do you see like everyone looks well dressed well put together um modern right 0.99

02:41:47.380 wearing modern clothes like no one's in hijab right like iran was never a muslim country right

02:41:56.180 iran was not an islamic society yes there were muslims within the country but there were also

02:42:02.100 iranians who were zoroastrian iranians who were christian um baha'i jewish atheist

02:42:10.020 who just like whatever anything you can think of right iran was never a is an islamic country yes

02:42:17.300 there were muslims within the country but it was not governed by sharia law it was only when the

02:42:23.060 islamic republic came to power that they imposed sharia law and made iran forced iranians to be a 0.99

02:42:31.700 a muslim on pain of death right like that's how islamic conquest works and so all those people 0.72

02:42:37.300 who say oh uranians are muslim weird we were never we were never um islamic okay people kept their 0.96

02:42:44.020 religion to themselves and you can see that the shah the shah was a muslim and yet the country

02:42:49.780 was secular because there was a separation of mosque and state look at all these people like 0.83

02:42:57.940 This would be like, I don't know, America. 0.79

02:43:00.920 This would be a scene out of New York.

02:43:27.940 look at how the um like look at how the uh i guess i don't know their waitresses but like the

02:43:38.040 you know the the serving staff look at how they're just in case there was still like 0.82

02:43:42.800 like these are iranian women right like these aren't foreigners this is how iranian women 0.98

02:43:47.360 dressed and looked before islam took over in 1979 hungry confections were served on the way

02:43:55.420 Like, this could be a scene, you know, this could be happening in, like, the United States. 0.99

02:44:00.700 You can't, like, you literally can't tell the difference looking at these people and the way they're dressed.

02:44:25.420 do you see the like the servers here look at how they're dressed

02:44:49.900 just these are iranian women right

02:44:55.420 In the aircraft, the Shah had brief moments of which he was on his own,

02:45:03.400 with time to look at what they were saying about the celebrations in the newspapers.

02:45:13.340 From a headquarters in Persepolis, the press was tapping and typing comments to the world.

02:45:26.380 it's mind-blowing to me like you know people say the shah was a dictator you know all that like you 0.88

02:45:31.740 know jihadi islamist nonsense right it's all takia look at the freedom of press look at all of these 0.91

02:45:37.420 reporters um you know even even the guy who like filmed this documentary or narrated or whatever 0.97

02:45:43.500 um all of these reporters from different parts of the world are in iran and they're you know

02:45:49.340 typing stories about their experience and what they saw in all of that um there is no freedom

02:45:55.820 of press in occupied iran right now first of all every single media outlet is controlled by the 0.71

02:46:01.340 islamic republic and only like jihadi islamist propaganda comes out there so we can't even trust 0.89

02:46:06.860 it not only that media outlets are not allowed to go to iran to occupy iran unless they have 0.82

02:46:13.420 permission from the islamic republic that's why you never see like independent reports from

02:46:18.300 you know cnn or you know cnn's garbage anyway but like you never see western media they're the only 0.93

02:46:24.620 types of journalists you see in um occupied iran are those who are mouthpieces for the islamic 0.97

02:46:31.500 republic but so it's wild it's wild that you know these islamists and communists will claim

02:46:37.260 that the shah was a dictator meanwhile literal literal freedom of press before 1979 and yet when 0.80

02:46:44.460 the communists and islamists took over they turned iran into an islamic dictatorship governed by

02:46:50.380 sharia law but you know and it's not me saying this it's this documentary video

02:46:55.820 from 1971 that's literally showing you all the various journalists from around the world

02:47:02.220 who were in iran to document what was happening now

02:47:24.540 for most of them it was a surprise to discover how the new persia

02:47:28.460 was evolving so he's going to talk a little bit now about how iran is modernizing um jane thank

02:47:36.920 you so much for for the super sticker thank you for the support i really appreciate it i hope

02:47:41.640 you're enjoying this guys if you if you are enjoying this kind of live stream let me know

02:48:18.340 watch parties and then kind of like walk you through it and uh and guide you um maybe like

02:48:25.280 there's you know what there's so many old movies as well i might be able to even find some like

02:48:30.680 old movies prior to when the islamic republic took over i wonder if they have like english

02:48:36.920 subtitles though i don't know if they do but i mean i can even like play um like old movies for

02:48:42.220 you guys so you can see what iran used to be like right like the islamists want you to think

02:48:47.620 that iran was always islamic and it was no it never was iran was incredibly modern um so yeah

02:48:54.440 let me know let me know in the chat if you guys um appreciate this and i'll do some more light

02:48:59.620 hearted streams like this only remembered the old when persia had slept the organization of

02:49:07.280 the great parade was in itself an eye-opener the celebrations were the signal that the flame of

02:49:12.660 persia was burning again great nations come and go a century ago persia had been of no importance

02:49:22.740 except to historians romanticists and students of aki okay this part this part is super important

02:49:29.620 guys sorry i paused like pay attention here because he's saying a century ago so during

02:49:36.180 the ghajar era the previous dynasty um iran was iran was nothing it was not modernized it was not

02:49:44.100 developed um it was gosh it was it was a terrible it was pretty much like a tribalistic tribalistic 0.71

02:49:54.100 undeveloped um kind of society and that was the previous ghajar dynasty which was very ineffective 0.99

02:50:01.940 um they were basically puppets for you know between the soviets and in the uk the soviets 0.99

02:50:07.220 and the british at the time um and they just wasted all the money on themselves they were

02:50:10.820 very very corrupt so he's about to tell you okay so i haven't i don't remember this part so i'm

02:50:17.060 just kind of guesstimating so i could be wrong but he's about to tell you that um you know in

02:50:22.980 the last century iran was basically undeveloped and it was only with the pahlavi dynasty the

02:50:29.460 Pahlavi dynasty that came in, I believe it was in 1925. So in 1925, when the monarchy changed,

02:50:39.780 and Rizal Shah the Great was brought in. Rizal Shah was the founder of the Shahanshah Aryamir,

02:50:45.360 the father. When he came in, he began a very aggressive approach towards modernizing and

02:50:55.740 industrializing iran aggressive in a good way okay i don't mean like aggressive in a bad way i just

02:50:59.900 mean like he like he he was a military man he was go go go go and he was all about like

02:51:06.700 infrastructure so he built railroads and bridges and hospitals and state like everything you can

02:51:12.380 think of and then that um industrialization of iran um and modernization was continued with his

02:51:20.940 son the Shah of Iran at the time here you see so I think he's gonna get into that so pay attention

02:51:26.460 to this part because again this isn't coming from me this is coming from other people who

02:51:31.740 made this documentary back in the 70s look at it back a little bit it could have been the first

02:51:42.600 occasion in most of the VIPs lives that so many of them who are normally whisked about in plush

02:51:48.660 limousines have crowded into coaches but what coaches i went a little too far sorry

02:51:59.860 okay here we go newspapers

02:52:07.300 from a headquarters in persepolis the press was tapping and typing comments to the world

02:52:18.660 For most of them, it was a surprise to discover how the new Persia was evolving.

02:52:41.860 They only remembered the old, when Persia had slept. 0.94

02:52:46.660 the organization of the great parade was in itself an eye-opener the celebration did you hear that so

02:52:54.900 so the great parade right the parade that we just watched okay um that was in front of persepolis

02:53:02.780 he just said that was an eye-opener right so when the shah of iran held that 2500 year celebration

02:53:10.820 of you know the Persian Empire and he invited 60 people you know heads of state and royalty to

02:53:17.580 attend it was an eye-opener for them because when they came to Iran they thought that it was like

02:53:25.120 some underdeveloped backcountry you know whatever whatever right like they probably assumed people

02:53:31.380 were living in tents or whatever and then instead when they came to Iran in 1971 and again like in

02:53:38.360 1971 um you know cities like Dubai and you know all these other places they didn't really exist

02:53:44.320 right like many of those places were not even nowhere near what they are today um they've

02:53:50.700 obviously now surpassed Iran since the Islamic Republic took over because the Islamic Republic 0.95

02:53:56.200 um is a dictatorship they don't care about economic growth they're just like a parasite on Iran

02:54:01.520 But back in 1971, they thought that Iran was like those countries. 0.79

02:54:08.340 And yet when they got there, it was an eye opener for them because they realized how modern Iran was, how much it had industrialized under the Pahlavi dynasty.

02:54:19.740 and the Shah basically used that opportunity of the 25-year anniversary

02:54:25.660 to not just promote tourism, but to then work on economic investment, right?

02:54:33.040 Because now other countries realize, oh my gosh, this is not what we thought.

02:54:39.740 Iran is way more modern.

02:54:41.880 In fact, Iran at the time in 1971 was way more modern than several of those countries. 0.95

02:54:49.740 And then, of course, the Islamic Republic came in 1979 and overnight turned our country into an Islamic hellhole and got rid of, like, all the work, all the work the Pahlavi dynasty had done. 0.98

02:55:02.960 with a signal that the flame of persia was burning again great nations come and go 1.00

02:55:11.180 a century ago persia had been of no importance except to historians romanticists and students

02:55:18.960 of archaeology look at her now she is making her challenge to join the new world

02:55:26.200 her greatest enemy is illiteracy she has started to beat it by building 4 000 new schools in a year

02:55:36.780 schools for adults does a dictator do that guys does a dictator someone who's corrupt

02:55:44.640 does he build at least 4 000 schools a year to combat illiteracy

02:55:50.040 does a dictator mandate that girls must complete their education 0.62

02:55:58.720 the only the only dictator you know the only like aspect of a dictator that i see in the shah 0.97

02:56:06.460 is that he wanted women to have equal rights and that pissed off the islamists because the islamists 0.66

02:56:11.640 as you know think women are second-class citizens they shouldn't be educated and they should be

02:56:17.400 married off at the age of nine and 10. So the Shah was a dictator towards the Islamists because he 0.53

02:56:23.000 didn't allow them to promote their Islamist narrative. And he did not allow them to brainwash 0.56

02:56:30.220 Iranian people into thinking that women shouldn't be educated, right? The Shah was not a dictator.

02:56:36.380 The Shah was a visionary. And you're not getting this from me. You're getting this from this guy

02:56:41.980 who's narrating this back in 1970 this is the truth guys because here this was still the 0.99

02:56:48.760 unfiltered truth before the islamic republic took over and then started spouting their lies 0.72

02:56:54.480 so again which dictator builds 4 000 schools a year minimum to educate its population 0.97

02:57:04.340 they only remembered the old when persia had slept the organization of the great parade was

02:57:16.220 in itself an eye-opener the celebrations were the signal that the flame of persia

02:57:21.220 was burning again great nations come and go a century ago persia had been of no importance

02:57:30.840 except to historians romanticists and students of archaeology look at her now

02:57:38.440 she is making her challenge to join the new world

02:57:44.440 her greatest enemy is illiteracy she has started to beat it by building 4 000 new schools in a year

02:57:52.680 schools for adults as well as children

02:57:54.920 look at that not just schools for children he was building schools for adults so that

02:58:03.560 people adults could also be educated guys 4 000 schools a year is insane again i was i was in

02:58:13.160 government i was in government for seven years as an elected member okay 10 years in total i was in

02:58:19.160 politics. My biggest accomplishment, like my biggest goal as a politician was to build schools

02:58:29.560 in my riding, okay? And I said to myself, you know, if I can, you know, get at least funding

02:58:36.840 to build one school a year, I'll be happy. The Ontario government, okay, it's, like I'm trying

02:58:46.000 think of like how many how many new schools are are announced a year um it's like maybe 200 and

02:58:55.760 200 is upper so think about that the ontario government right now you know canada is a modern

02:59:01.360 uh you know first world country developed whatever the ontario government can barely budget

02:59:07.760 building 200 new schools a year not counting all the renovations or whatever that you know

02:59:13.840 needs to be done for the pre-existing schools okay so in 2025 the ontario government in canada

02:59:21.680 can barely afford to build 200 schools a year in 1971 in iran the shah of iran was building a 0.61

02:59:33.760 minimum of 4 000 schools a year and not just for children but for adults like it's insane guys i'm 0.89

02:59:42.800 telling you like this is like unheard of unheard of governments don't do that but the shah was doing 0.59

02:59:48.960 that he was working hard towards educating the people he wanted to beat literacy if you remember

02:59:56.240 in the parade that we were watching there was a specific um branch of the army that he called the

03:00:03.440 peace army remember men and women who were employed by the army to go out and combat illiteracy

03:00:11.760 to combat famine to combat poverty so all these schools he was building this was all

03:00:19.280 the work of the the peace army right the the peace army that he had that you saw walking through the

03:00:24.800 parade and yet the islamists and the communists call him a dictator do you see the lies do you

03:00:33.040 see the takia but this video is the truth this video is what they don't want you to see what

03:00:40.800 they don't want you to know about her other enemy is her scarcity of water

03:00:48.080 by building great dams persia's water too is being brought under control

03:00:54.720 so he was combating illiteracy by building at least 4 000 schools a year he was building dams

03:01:02.720 right and building dams to combat lack of water and the problem had been resolved you know one

03:01:09.440 one of the biggest problems right now in occupied Iran is lack of water. The Islamic Republic

03:01:13.380 has mismanaged the infrastructure that the Shah built, by the way, because the Islamic Republic 0.95

03:01:18.500 hasn't built anything. They're corrupt. They're uneducated. They're completely incompetent. 0.99

03:01:24.060 All they do is they steal Iranian people's money, they fund terrorism, and then they murder any 1.00

03:01:30.840 Iranians who speak out. That's what the Islamic Republic is known for. They have mismanaged the 0.99

03:01:37.980 infrastructure that the Shah built 50, 60 years ago so bad that Iranians now don't have access

03:01:46.500 to clean water. I don't know if you guys know this, but there has been a water shortage in Iran

03:01:51.040 for a year now. She is moving fast into heavy industry. The country has to do a lot yet to

03:01:59.620 catch up industrially with the Western world. But one of the wonders of her is that this old 0.99

03:02:05.080 sleeping beauty is now awake so much and keep in mind this is from 1971 the strides right the

03:02:16.360 strides that the shot took from 1971 to 1979 in those eight years exponential growth right

03:02:25.040 exponential growth which is happening so quickly 0.53

03:02:29.440 her modern spirit was first aroused during the reign of the present shah's father

03:02:37.520 during the celebrations of the 2500 anniversary his son remembered him

03:02:45.040 in tehran guys just so just a quick tidbit for you guys if you don't know we actually

03:02:55.760 you know we have a specific name for the pahlavi dynasty right for um the you know shahan and then

03:03:04.860 his father um rizal shah the great and of course the current shah in exile rizal shah the second

03:03:10.360 we have a specific name for them i'll say it in in persian and then i'll translate it so

03:03:15.080 uh in persian we say hondon it you know which means the iran building pahlavi dynasty

03:03:25.080 why because the pahlavi dynasty is known for modernizing iran and taking iran from the

03:03:32.600 backwards country it was to a modern developing country and if the islamic republic had not taken

03:03:41.800 over iran today would have been the japan or the singapore of the middle east that was the 0.96

03:03:48.040 trajectory that iran was on until the islamic republic came in and everything went to hell 0.81

03:03:55.400 and then sharia law came in right the cavalcade of cars swept towards the mausoleum of reza shah 0.93

03:04:02.120 the great his son wished to do honor to the memory of his father the ceremony was solemn and short

03:04:11.560 most of us would wish to pay our own respects to our own fathers his own had founded a new

03:04:17.960 in Persia. The Persian people already call him Reza the Great.

03:04:47.960 After that, the climax of the celebrations.

03:05:08.300 The first glimpse of the floodlit monument outside the airport of Tehran in honor of the present Shah.

03:05:17.960 So is, I think, wasn't Borja Shahyad built that year? Wait, let me see if I can find it.

03:05:30.120 Was it built in 1971?

03:05:35.840 Where was it built? Let's see. 19, okay.

03:05:38.980 okay oh wow okay so i was right so um the so this tower that you're about to see

03:05:47.300 is an iconic part of iran so um it's called the the shahyad tower um that's the that's the real

03:05:58.320 name of it when the islam the islamists took over when the islamic regime took over they changed

03:06:03.780 its name to like freedom tower uh which is actually very very hypocritical because iran 0.79

03:06:10.260 is currently under occupation by a brutal islamic dictatorship uh but that's what the islamists do 0.90

03:06:15.380 the islamists and communists right they come in they invade they erase and they change names right 0.94

03:06:21.220 they change everything in order to erase your history because they want to to take over but um 0.96

03:06:26.900 Yeah, so this Shah Yudh Tower was commissioned by the Shah, and it was inaugurated in 1971 during the 2,500-year anniversary of the founding of the Persian Empire.

03:06:42.980 So it's so cool that we're seeing all of this, and it's so cool that, you know, he had the foresight to plan all of this and just have it all line up perfectly.

03:06:54.980 below the monument is a museum of persian art so this is the inauguration of shalia tower wow

03:07:02.580 well what would you expect 0.96

03:07:08.260 you see like this is what the islamists complained about they complained about joy they complained 0.93

03:07:13.460 about celebration they complain about everything good right i mean fireworks are 0.96

03:07:24.180 So wonderful, so beautiful. And, you know, every celebration has and Canada Day fireworks, Fourth of July fireworks, New Year's fireworks.

03:07:32.740 But yet somehow when the Shah of Iran had fireworks, that's a problem. The Islamists said he's corrupt.

03:07:41.940 Do you see how they operate? Do you see the lies that they have been propagating for the last 50 years?

03:07:49.220 Because unfortunately, the Islamists and the communists have been in power. 0.92

03:07:52.560 They have control of all the funding.

03:07:56.340 They have billions of dollars at their disposal to promote propaganda.

03:08:01.980 What do I have?

03:08:02.880 I have my laptop and I have my live stream and I have my flag.

03:08:06.940 That's it.

03:08:07.820 I don't have any funders.

03:08:11.140 I'm not getting paid to do this.

03:08:13.240 I mean, your financial support helps me 100%.

03:08:15.800 like your financial support makes it easier for me to do more live streams but um i'm combating 0.71

03:08:23.320 billions of dollars of islamic propaganda islamic and communist propaganda that has been going on 0.81

03:08:31.240 for 47 years right and that's why people like me we have to be much better than them and 0.89

03:08:42.440 we have to come with the receipts and that's why everything i talk about i always have proof i

03:08:47.320 always have like video or audio or an image or something right because unfortunately most 0.90

03:08:55.160 non-iranians have been so indoctrinated by the lies and the propaganda that the islamists have

03:09:02.440 told you about iran about iranians about who our shah was about life you know life in iran that 0.87

03:09:11.000 like and they do it on purpose they want the world to think that Iranians are a bunch of like 0.96

03:09:17.460 backwards jihadi inbred savages who just yell death to America all day every day it was never 0.75

03:09:23.780 like that it was never like that it was when the Islamic Republic came to power in 1979 0.96

03:09:30.500 that all this jihadi Islamic terrorism nonsense happened and Iran was the first victim we Iranians 0.74

03:09:40.160 were the first victims of the islamic regime and of this islamic colonization and now they've 0.97

03:09:48.480 expanded and now they're coming into your countries and i'm glad you are here watching this 0.99

03:09:56.000 because this is the party in the desert that the islamists complain about and if we didn't have 1.00

03:10:03.760 the footage to show you the truth you would still be believing them and yet despite everything 0.81

03:10:10.080 i'm showing you there are still people who are in the chat or who are going to watch this after

03:10:16.240 or who just pop up randomly and without looking into the history of iran without knowing anything

03:10:22.000 about the country they'll just pair up the same line the show was a dictator he was corrupting

03:10:27.760 the party in the desert right it's the same same propaganda over and over again right it's similar

03:10:33.760 to how they constantly say oh there's a genocide in in palestine or gaza or wherever right like

03:10:39.200 it's it's not true but you repeat it often enough and people start to believe it without even going

03:10:45.680 to study to understand what the definition of genocide is right civilian casualties is 0.95

03:10:51.120 not the same thing as genocide i mean war sucks war sucks i don't want to see anyone die 0.73

03:10:56.240 but hamas started a war there's going to be casualties it's unfortunate don't start wars i 0.83

03:11:03.600 don't know it's not a genocide though but it's so it's the same thing with iran right the the

03:11:07.840 the same tactics that they're using to slander um israel and jewish people those are the same

03:11:14.480 tactics that they have been using to slander us iranians and our shah since forever since forever

03:11:23.920 and that's why we have to come with even more proof more documentation like this video here

03:11:30.560 so that i can at least you know if i can convince i mean there's like there's 3 000

03:11:36.320 people watching this right now if i can convince half of you guys that everything you've been told

03:11:42.640 about iran is a lie everything you've been told about or shah is a lie if i can convince half of

03:11:49.040 you guys i'm happy it was worth it for me to spend my sunday afternoon sharing these videos with you

03:11:56.640 you know sitting in front of a laptop i could be doing anything else right now but i'm here

03:12:00.000 because i'm passionate about this i'm passionate about freeing iran i'm also passionate about

03:12:08.160 not allowing canada to fall down that path and i say canada because i'm canadian

03:12:13.120 but i want to educate people in other countries to learn learn from our mistake learn from

03:12:19.600 what happened to us iranians because we have been stuck in this horrific nightmare for 47 years and 0.94

03:12:28.160 the horrors the horrors of what the islamic republic has done to us in the name of allah and islam 1.00

03:12:36.960 you wouldn't be able to sleep you would not be able to sleep for like a year because just listening 1.00

03:12:43.760 to what has happened to iranians in and of itself is traumatizing like we iranians we have so much

03:12:49.040 internalized trauma and i can tell you something it's almost like we live double lives right on one

03:12:53.680 hand you know we're normal functioning citizens um in you know whichever country we we are lucky

03:12:59.760 enough to escape to and then on the other hand you know we have the Iranian side which is like

03:13:06.400 you turn on Iranian you know you turn on news or check it out and you're basically wondering who

03:13:11.360 was executed today who did the islamic which innocent person did the islamic republic execute

03:13:17.040 today which innocent girl was raped and tortured before she was executed today 0.90

03:13:26.080 which school child was gassed did you know the islamic republic gasses school children 0.92

03:13:33.120 to keep their parents from going out and protesting 1.00

03:13:38.080 that's the stuff of nightmares that's what we deal with as iranians it's it's almost

03:13:43.520 like it's become this common common day occurrence thing and that's why when october 7 happened

03:13:50.800 and hamas you know went after and massacred innocent israelis and jews and all the horrific

03:13:58.800 things they did to them we iranians we believed jews and israelis right away because those 0.97

03:14:06.800 horrific tactics have been used against us for 47 years that's how islamists operate 1.00

03:14:13.520 They are the worst of the worst. They are not human beings. They are savage animals. 1.00

03:14:23.000 And Hamas learns from the Islamic Republic because Hamas is funded by the Islamic Republic. 0.93

03:14:30.380 Anyways, let's go back to this because I want to get back on track here. 0.87

03:14:34.900 But again, this is the celebration that the Islamists were complaining about. 0.89

03:14:40.240 they are anti-joy anti-life anti-love they are anti-humanity like they are the biggest 0.89

03:14:48.420 threat to western civilization what happened to iran could happen to your countries if you don't 0.99

03:14:53.720 wake up 0.98

03:14:54.560 Oh, that's beautiful. I love that.

03:15:11.980 That's like the, that's an iconic power.

03:15:24.560 like this so what you're seeing is like the night this is nightlife in tehran right now

03:15:52.760 the streets like everything is clean and you know there's like bright lights and everyone is

03:15:57.480 celebrating right every iran used to be a normal country this is what a normal country looks like

03:16:02.680 this is what we're fighting for guys iranians we're literally fighting to take our country back 1.00

03:16:08.200 so we can have a normal country again so that we're not governed by ayatollahs we're not we're

03:16:13.800 not governed by clerics we don't want sharia law iran was never a muslim islamic country yes there

03:16:20.520 there were Muslims who lived there. But religion was a personal thing. Religion was never, you know,

03:16:25.940 controlling government. It was only in 1979, when the Islamic Republic came to power that they

03:16:33.340 imposed Sharia law on Iranians. And we've been fighting them ever since. 1.00

03:16:50.520 On the last day of the celebrations, there was a spectacular to mark the inauguration

03:17:15.280 of a vast new sports stadium in Tehran designed to seat 100,000 people.

03:17:20.520 so this is a very very famous sports stadium um in iran obviously the shah built it and

03:17:29.140 it's currently in a state of disrepair it's currently in a state of disrepair and 0.97

03:17:35.060 because the islamic republic again there are a bunch of you know demonic evil ayatollahs 1.00

03:17:41.660 they're uneducated right they don't have any sort of education um in economics or government 0.99

03:17:47.520 manage like nothing right like literally a bunch of inbred savages who just um are are leeches 0.98

03:17:53.760 leeches off of society unfortunately they're controlling government right now um they have 0.94

03:17:58.960 mismanaged the economy so bad okay that not only is everyone poor but like this stadium right now

03:18:06.880 is crumbling this stadium was the jewel of tehran it was the pride and joy like there were so amazing

03:18:14.880 so many amazing um sporting events that happened there and you know it's it's the inauguration is

03:18:22.240 in in 1971 like it's just amazing like this is so fantastic but on top of that the ayatollahs 0.98

03:18:29.840 the islamic republic are so um idiotic that they have mismanaged the economy so bad that the cost 1.00

03:18:39.680 to repair, I think it's like the ground, the ground in the stadium needs to be repaired or 1.00

03:18:45.180 replaced or something. The cost to repair that right now is more than the cost to build the

03:18:57.200 stadium in 1971. That's how bad the economy is in occupied Iran right now. That is simple repair

03:19:05.240 for the stadium that the shah built by the way the repair for the stadium is more expensive 0.97

03:19:12.840 than the stadium itself 0.58

03:19:16.840 there is nothing good i'm going to say this and i'll go back to this 1.00

03:19:20.200 not a single good positive thing has come from the islamic republic i challenge anyone to show me 0.90

03:19:28.920 one thing that the Islamic Republic has done that helps the Iranian people or advances Iran in one 0.52

03:19:38.280 way or another. There is literally nothing that anyone can point to because the Islamic Republic 0.93

03:19:43.820 has not contributed a single positive thing to the country. The Islamic Republic is a demonic 1.00

03:19:49.800 parasite that has taken and taken and taken and murdered and stolen. 1.00

03:19:59.600 The Shah arrived. They seem to be all there. 0.98

03:20:05.420 One more thing as well, before I forget again, like so much, you guys don't know.

03:20:11.580 Take a look at the people in the stadium. You're going to see men and women.

03:20:14.880 Um, when the Islamic Republic came to power in 1979, they banned women from soccer stadiums and sports stadiums. So as of 1979, women are not allowed to attend sporting matches because that's against Sharia law.

03:20:32.640 And I would love for the Muslims in the comments to answer me why that is.

03:20:39.200 Why can women not go to sporting stadiums?

03:20:41.960 And by the way, if Iran was always a Muslim country and governed by Sharia law, then why 0.84

03:20:50.100 is it that women prior to 1979 were treated equally, didn't have to wear hijab, and they

03:20:56.560 could go to sports stadiums. 0.99

03:20:58.560 But after 1979, they can't anymore. 1.00

03:21:02.640 I would love for someone to explain to me why women are not allowed to attend sporting stadiums. 0.97

03:21:08.200 These like these are the things that non-Iranians don't know.

03:21:11.140 Like there's so many little like aspects of day to day life that I don't even think about like commenting on because it's just like it's common knowledge for us that in Iran, women are not allowed to attend sporting events.

03:25:08.240 swinging heavy clubs is a traditional sport oh guys okay so this is a zurkhune i'll find

03:25:16.020 some videos for you guys for for another time but um zurkhune it's like a it's like um like an

03:25:23.260 iranian iranian weightlifting okay think of like iranian weightlifting and and zurkhune is uh it's

03:25:29.960 basically like a gym i guess like like a traditional iranian gym um where men would go

03:25:36.400 and they would lift certain weights to work out you're gonna it's actually really hard to do like

03:25:40.160 they've uh there's a video where they try to get like um bodybuilders to do this and the

03:25:46.080 bodybuilders can't i'll see if i can find some videos and show you but uh yeah like again so the

03:25:52.000 is something very traditional it goes back like thousands of years right so 3 000 years or so

03:25:58.160 um the zurhune's have been around so it's uh you know we we even we even had like

03:26:04.080 gyms gyms 3 000 years ago maybe we invented the concept of gyms too and okay guys again

03:26:11.280 do you see the women see all the women and notice how they're all dressed normally right 1.00

03:26:17.600 some with hijabs some without but you don't see any of those like black garbage bags all 1.00

03:26:24.480 all around like people are dressed normally and everyone is free to to dress however they want 1.00

03:26:30.240 to dress all right

03:26:52.960 the strong men of persia pride themselves on their muscular development

03:27:00.240 Thank you.

03:27:30.240 so the music in the background is a very traditional like very traditional song as

03:27:43.020 well like we all know it

03:27:44.300 do you see do you see the women do you see the women dancing 1971 iran not only are women in

03:28:02.220 the stadium but they're dancing these are things that are banned these are things that are banned

03:28:07.420 in iran right now because the islamic republic says that this is against islam that this is haram 0.95

03:28:13.740 sharia law does not allow this so again when you have these ignorant people or even when you have 0.88

03:28:21.500 the islamists and they come and they say iran was always a muslim country and iranians were 0.97

03:28:26.140 muslim culture no it's a lie they're lying to you it was never ever like that right women were free 0.58

03:28:34.220 to do whatever they wanted to do the islamic republic has imposed sharia law on us they have 0.99

03:28:40.220 kept the iranian people hostage for 47 years and i will definitely go into the whys and the hows

03:28:50.220 of that happened because i know a lot of you have asked me um if you know iranians were not muslim

03:28:56.700 why did the islamic revolution happen why were they successful um there's a lot of factors

03:29:03.660 to that a lot of lying a lot of trickery there was also something that um the current

03:29:12.380 shah of iran said uh reza show the second um the shah in exile he he said this in his speech two

03:29:18.860 days ago at the cyrus the great event that i attended um he said that sometimes the good guys

03:29:27.260 don't win. No matter how hard you try, the good guys just don't win. And that's what

03:29:35.440 happened in 1979. The good guys lost. The good guys lost. That's what happened. And

03:29:48.440 was a combination of factors um and i'll definitely get into all that it's you know incredibly

03:29:59.960 complicated um there's a lot of misinformation out there as well there's a lot of misinformation

03:30:09.240 you know it doesn't help that you have the islamists and the communists right put out

03:30:13.000 this propaganda that the shah was a dictator and people were oppressed people what like you know 0.99

03:30:18.360 all that nonsense we have to deal with you know on like on on top of the fact that the islamists and 0.98

03:30:23.400 communists are now murdering us and oppressing us um putting all that aside right they still 1.00

03:30:32.120 have the audacity to claim that the shah was a dictator meanwhile they literally rape women 0.99

03:30:37.560 before executing them to make sure the woman doesn't go to heaven right because 0.99

03:30:41.640 in sharia law uh if a woman is a virgin she goes to heaven so the islamic republic rapes iranian 0.99

03:30:47.640 women before executing them to make sure they don't go to heaven and then they have the audacity 0.98

03:30:53.400 to call the shah of iran a corrupt dictator it's it's laughable it's mind-blowing but this is what 0.98

03:31:02.360 we're dealing with when the bad guys are in power unfortunately the bad guys have billions of

03:31:08.120 dollars at their disposal and they can spread their lies they can spread their propaganda they

03:31:13.560 can spread their jihadi nonsense and ideology but this here what you're seeing in the video below 0.83

03:31:20.840 from 1971 this is the real iran that is currently hidden right islamic republic has put like this 0.94

03:31:29.720 oppressive shroud this hijab on iran 0.90

03:31:37.160 because what you see right now that's not iran this this is the real iran 0.71

03:31:41.560 that you're seeing 1.00

03:31:49.560 look at all these iranian women here 1.00

03:31:53.560 This is not allowed today. 0.99

03:31:58.220 Iranian women are not even allowed to be inside of a stadium in Iran, let alone dancing and not wearing a mask. 0.67

03:32:23.560 This could be any country, you could be watching something in the United States or in Europe or Japan or something, you can't know that this is Yvonne, because Yvonne was a normal, western country. 0.66

03:32:54.040 Perfect.

03:32:54.380 We'll be right back.

03:33:24.380 to the music of the Viennese waltz.

03:33:27.380 Towards the end of the celebrations,

03:33:53.640 the Shah heard an address

03:33:55.300 from the religious representatives of the world a confirmation that religious tolerance should be

03:34:01.220 extended to all men wow you know what that sounds like exactly what a dictator would do right like

03:34:09.860 all dictators right like they're all about religious tolerance do you see do you see how

03:34:17.360 they have um spread so much lies and propaganda about the shah of iran but when you actually dive 0.73

03:34:26.400 in and you look at history and you look at facts you see that it was the complete opposite 0.97

03:34:34.640 that the islamic dictatorship that's the real dictatorship they are the ones who are corrupt 0.99

03:34:39.040 they're the ones who are dictators they are the ones who are murdering 1.00

03:34:41.920 Iranians. Guys, I'm telling you right now, every single accusation that the communists and

03:34:48.620 Islamists throw at the Shah and the Pahlavi dynasty, that accusation is an admission of

03:34:55.240 guilt. It's what they are doing, okay? That's how Islamists operate. It's taqiyya, it's jihad. 1.00

03:35:03.880 The Shah was not a dictator. Look at what he's doing. He's literally saying that, you know,

03:35:10.120 he's supporting freedom of religion and saying everyone should be free to practice whatever

03:35:16.040 religion they choose and and he literally has guys is that is that that's a first nations

03:35:21.560 person look at that he even has a first nations person there look at that

03:35:29.720 like back in 1971 back in 1971 the shot i did not know this like i'm just noticing this for

03:35:36.520 the first time so back in 1971 the shah of iran invited a first nations leader to iran to be part

03:35:46.280 of the i guess the the ceremonies and to also speak about the religious freedom of first nations

03:35:57.080 people who does that who did that back in 1971. the canadian government is still fighting with

03:36:04.040 first nations uh first nations here in canada and yet in 1971 right almost 60 years ago or over 50

03:36:13.560 years ago in 1971 the shah of iran had a first nations chief in tehran to show respect for the

03:36:24.360 religious beliefs of first nations people does that does that look like a dictator to you

03:36:34.040 unbelievable the lies that they have spread about this man

03:36:41.820 every single lie they have said about him it's the exact opposite and in fact

03:36:47.760 every single accusation is something that they have been accused of doing

03:36:52.600 not all countries accept it in ancient tradition persia does

03:37:00.780 oh let's go back here let's listen to that part because i interrupted

03:37:06.680 so what he says about religion is really important because again cyrus the great the

03:37:13.800 founder of the persian empire mandated religious freedom so people who were in living in the

03:37:20.620 persian empire 3 000 years ago had freedom of religion freedom of religion is part of our

03:37:27.240 iranian identity freedom of religion is is part of who we are

03:37:49.640 sorry rod i'm only saying first nations because i don't know which tribe he's from i don't know 1.00

03:37:55.800 which country he's from so i just i want to be respectful because i don't want to like

03:38:00.280 say a certain tribe if he's not from that tribe so you know first nations to kind of encompass

03:38:06.360 that if i knew which tribe or whatever i mean i would stay but i don't know what's the end

03:38:10.440 of the celebrations the shah heard an address from the religious representatives of the world

03:38:15.720 a confirmation that religious tolerance should be extended to all men not all countries accepted

03:38:23.080 in ancient tradition persia does did you hear that so in ancient tradition persia and persians

03:38:32.120 and iran iran accepts religious tolerance because it's part of our ancient thousand-year-old

03:38:37.880 tradition

03:39:00.680 as the vip said their goodbyes they left behind them each in their own language

03:39:05.880 and over their own famous names a message of goodwill in our world we might call them

03:39:13.960 bread and butter letters in persia's world they remember the words of their great poet

03:39:21.400 and thinker sadi who 700 years ago wrote if ambitious of a great name make a practice of

03:39:31.720 for the crop will not shoot till thou shalt sow the seed.

03:40:01.720 Do you see how people are dressed?

03:40:25.720 1971. 0.99

03:40:32.740 Was that Japanese?

03:40:34.940 Was that Japanese?

03:40:36.140 I think that was Japanese.

03:40:44.260 There he is, guys.

03:40:45.480 So that is the, I think that's the crown prince.

03:40:49.700 That's the crown prince.

03:40:50.540 So, well, that's when he was young. 0.59

03:40:52.560 He's, of course, the Shah in exile right now. 0.92

03:40:54.740 but I believe that's him.

03:41:24.740 in tehran the new monument is likely to become as familiar as london's big ben the eiffel tower of

03:41:40.720 paris the new york statue of liberty it has symboled the ground that that's the steyer's

03:41:48.860 cylinder guys so this is like this is um where cyrus you know proclaimed um human rights and

03:41:54.880 freedom of religion so this cylinder en argile cuite de cirrus proclame que c'est ici que pour

03:42:03.560 la première fois les droits de l'homme devin loi

03:42:08.240 so this cylinder again this was a styrus cylinder so he wrote this uh styrus the great wrote this

03:42:23.580 like you know 2 500 years ago um and proclaimed freedom of religion and human rights on this so

03:42:30.800 this is like sort of the first um instance of of human rights and again you know freedom of

03:42:37.360 religion and tolerance and human rights was basically invented by the Persians as well.

03:43:07.360 wow well guys i was not expecting to be here almost four hours but um thank you so much for

03:43:28.000 for being here thank you so much for joining me on this stream um i just kind of did an impromptu

03:43:33.280 stream because today is the birthday of Shahad Shah Aryomeh, Muhammad Rizal Pahlavi, the, you know,

03:43:43.400 amazing, amazing king Shah that you saw in this video. I hope that this gives you a little bit

03:43:52.320 of glimpse into who he was as a person, why Iranians love him, love his father, love the 0.87

03:44:01.180 levi dynasty and also why the islamists attack him right keep that in mind keep that in mind

03:44:10.620 the islamists despise him and let me i want to i want to share this here instead

03:44:19.660 i want to share this when i speak about when i speak about him give me a moment

03:44:31.180 Here we go.

03:44:39.980 It is his birthday today.

03:44:41.480 He is the gentleman that you saw in the video.

03:44:44.120 He is the amazing, incredible Shah that we had that commemorated the 2,500th anniversary

03:44:55.240 of the Persian Empire.

03:44:58.800 is the one that continued his father's role and path to modernizing iran as you saw with the 0.90

03:45:05.200 stadium um with with the shahia tower and he is the one that the islamists vilify

03:45:14.240 he was building you saw you guys you saw in the video the video said it not me he was building

03:45:21.520 minimum 4 000 schools per year to combat illiteracy 0.52

03:45:30.480 does a dictator do that instead the islamic republic is shutting down schools 0.92

03:45:39.040 and in fact encouraging iranian girls to end their education sooner and go get married and 0.98

03:45:45.760 have children the islamic republic is literally encouraging um child marriages that's how sick 0.86

03:45:52.160 and backwards those people are and what happened to iran in 1979 is the biggest downgrade the 1.00

03:46:01.600 single biggest downgrade in the history of human civilization and i will have a lot to stay on that

03:46:07.680 but today is his birthday i wanted to watch that video i figured i would stream it i'm glad you

03:46:16.000 guys join me it seems that there's a lot of interest in seeing these sorts of videos of

03:46:22.300 you know iran before 1979 um and what's really interesting is that i'm literally sharing history

03:46:30.720 and yet there are still people in the chat who are triggered and are calling it propaganda

03:46:36.100 it's it's wild to me right but like i hope i hope for you non-iranians i know jewish people

03:46:41.980 understand so anyone who's jewish understands exactly what we're going through because you

03:46:46.100 guys deal with it too right like the islamists and the commies and the anti-semites all come

03:46:50.860 after you right i mean you breathe and it's like genocide right like at this point like the very

03:46:55.420 existence of a jewish person you'd be accused of genocide by existing it's it's not insane the

03:47:00.860 you know the the attacks against you guys but but we get the same attacks from a different

03:47:06.380 side of things and as you can tell for those of you watching on youtube looking at the live chat

03:47:11.900 um i just shared a historical video right like there was nothing political about it i shared a

03:47:18.860 historical video and then i explained what iran was like prior to 1979 versus what iran is like 0.86

03:47:27.820 now as it is occupied by a brutal islamic dictatorship that is murdering us every day

03:47:34.220 and yet that is still controversial for the trolls right so i think i might do more of these videos 0.92

03:47:41.260 because this is what this is what they don't want you to see this is what they don't want you to

03:47:46.220 know about they want you to think that the shah was a dictator because they had to that was the

03:47:53.260 lie that the islamists and communists used to gain legitimacy their movement gained 0.92

03:48:01.580 legitimacy from foreigners and you know politicians and whatever because they spread the

03:48:09.340 lie that the shah was a dictator and unfortunately foreigners and foreign governments bought it and

03:48:16.540 And, of course, Jimmy Carter. Biggest idiot. May he burn in hell. 1.00

03:48:22.740 We love Ronald Reagan. We love Ronald Reagan. Jimmy Carter and Democrats. 1.00

03:48:29.500 No. And we love Trump as well, of course. So, I mean, Republicans, Republicans are always great.

03:48:35.720 Republicans have always been the enemy of Iran. Democrats have always been sorry, not enemy.

03:48:42.320 my apologies republicans have always been um supportive of iran and iranian people democrats

03:48:50.240 have been the enemy of iran democrats have always sided with islamists it started with jimmy carter

03:49:00.080 carry to obama and then biden and i have another live stream you know one of my future lives because

03:49:06.480 i have a lot to talk about guys i could talk for days and days and days on end about iran

03:49:29.820 that's a big one especially for you americans you guys need to know about this like i have spoken

03:49:34.700 about this a lot no one really pays attention but the democrats have always been supportive

03:49:42.060 of islamic terrorism and all i can say is you know thank god that president trump came to power

03:49:48.620 because if kamala had gotten in you guys were on a trajectory to become like the next canada thank 0.72

03:50:01.920 done. I mean, I'm not American, so I don't want to like impose my thoughts. But I mean, I'm happy

03:50:08.920 to talk about it at some point. And if you didn't catch my live stream from three days ago, so two

03:50:15.880 live streams ago, I spoke about Matt Walsh versus maybe Hassan, you know, Americans fighting back

03:50:40.880 islamists you want to go and watch that live stream that i did two days ago because i go through 0.99

03:50:54.380 big supporter of the Islamic Republic, right? Go figure. Like, all these Islamists are connected.

03:50:58.960 All these Islamists are connected, guys. And they always attack us. They attack us because 1.00

03:51:05.400 they view Iran as an ATM. They view Iran as a paycheck. And they don't want us to liberate our
