Understanding Iran
In order to better understand the situation in #Iran, I believe it is important to understand how significant Prime Minister #Mohammad #Mossadegh is to the country's recent #history. Not the #Shah, not the #Ayatollah. Mossadegh stood for a Persian-Arab renewal after World War II, which is actually what the #West supposedly always wants.
#Democratic, Western-oriented, you could say #social #democrat—at that time, the communists were very much on the rise, as they were pushing for #decolonization, often with AK-47s.
Mossadegh was not a #communist, but he dared, like #Chavez and #Maduro, to nationalize the country's oil reserves. Then the #US and #England got angry and, together with their bridgehead #Israel, destroyed Iran's future and installed the #fascist Shah regime – a time of absolute horror. #Khomeini was then the salvation.
I believe the Iranians really dislike their government, but they have not forgotten what happens when they trust the West. I wish Iran all the best. Stay brave!
