Shah was basically doing what the saudis and Emiratis are doing now 40 years ago! He was too smart for his people. He made mistakes but he had good intentions, he was building low cost housing for people, paying students to study abroad and using the oil money to improve the countries infrastructure.

[@marthajackson1388]

Just a quick question. Do you even know that Iran had a Democratic elected president before the Shah? Do you know that Shah rebelled against the democratic elected government once oil was nationalized in Iran? For those that are reading and don't understand what nationalizing oil means, well it means the oil is owned by the country. You see foreign companies, such as Shell, used to own oil rights. A country like the UAE didn't have complete ownership of oil rights until maybe the 1990's. Oh, also Libya had a king that used to provide free meals and clothing to all kids at school. He was taken down after nationalizing oil and Qadafi took over. Obviously the dude was crazy but he initially was pro west and reversed nationalizing oil. So yeah Iran current government violate women and human rights so fix that. But a Shah that took down a Democratic elected president and "here is my favorite line ever!" Declared himself as an Emperor instead of a King because even though he supports democracy the Iranian people weren't ready for democracy. He said that on an interview on 60 minutes which I have seen on KZbin. I am not sure if it is still posted or not but feel free to look it up.

[@MrZZooh]

He did apparently rule with an iron fist but that only applied to political parties and free expression. He did not interfere in people's personal lives and freedoms. At the time a lot of the rural poor that worked in Tehran became Khomeini's foot soldiers because his words resonated more with the religious poor folk from rural areas. Shah's highly centralized economy meant that he ignored the small towns, most of which were fairly religious and conservative. In order to find work those folks would go to the capital Tehran, which ended up being his downfall alongside his own propping up of the Mullahs against the communists, a huge mistake he paid dearly for.

[@armanGT800]

@@MrZZooh Why do you need to make up history? Here is the truth, he was a tyrant- a despot who thought the country belongs to him, he always called it my people, my country. Dude was a paper tiger, his reliance on US and West to help him rule started in 1953 with the involvement of US Central Agency in staging a coup and bringing him back. These are indisputable facts now available thru unclassified CIA documents. He created SAVAK and gave them autonomy, budget and man power to do what they deemed necessary to preserve his rule. He only came to regret his actions when millions of people including some elite as this piece clearly shows started to openly oppose him. The Petro $ could not save him after all. Having said that, Islamist did what any good opposition does, took over a movement that was initially started as a liberal, organic movement inside Iran Universities and other organizations and redirect it to what they wanted, an even worse type of governance, i.e. Theocracy.

[@FrederickBilak]

@chudiranian The problem was that in Iran,the religious forces who were the most hateful against progressives,socialists, communists,were the most reactionary and fanatical of the religious. They hated as the Shah fatally didn't notice,untill it was hopeless for him,that they opposed his white revolution,such as wormans rights, just as much. And his secular and wife's secular dressing and western behaviors. In the end he gave his enemies the powers to destroy him,in a self destructive desire to use them in destroying the left in Iran,thinking he could still control those right religious figures. In the end all it did was not just destroy communism but socialism,democrats,liberals,moderate religious figures and leave Iran in the hands of a medieval world of tryany and oppression,worse then what the Shah even ever did.

[@theredale5070]

He was regarded as too western oriented and subservient to the americans, he ruled a brutal police state and his lavish spending angered the poor masses who had little welfare and didn't gain much from the oil boom. That united to some religious fundamentalism did the trick

Re Plato and Socrates , the great weakness of democracy is its inability to elect wise leaders which the world sorely needs today. Religious leaders are not the answer either as too often they have their own power complex to deal with. Religious leaders use God/Allah for their own lust for power and influence. Wisdom , wisdom, wisdom is what we need in leaders today . Neither the mechanisms of Democray nor religious leadership or kingship guarantee wisdom in a leader. But saying that, true to say in kingship or religious leadership or democracy , a wise leader might arise - it seldom ever does . Democracy certainly does not guarantee such leadership . The world needs to rethink the way in which wise leadership might arise given that its not an innate talent in many humans. What does wise leadership look like is another perplexing question ? - not easy to define as no doubt Socrates would have shown in his dialogues with others and for which reason he was in part put on trial for corrupting the young and denying the god or gods of his day .

If what he was printing can be called pornography then your definition of it and the rest of the world is quite different. He was a liberal at heart which believed in freedom of expression, print and press. I think if you can't understand that then there is the problem, we faced back in 1978. He was fiercely secular which I think you can clearly see in his interview. He outlines facts and figures here which are indisputable. 85% of Petro $ found its way in to the pocket of 5% of Iranians. When many provinces, specially in south and southwest lacked basic services such as running water, hospital and doctors. The very few and select in Tehran were getting rich by simply sponsoring contracts from buildings to shipping to Petroleum projects.

[@aminxalili]

Iran's Morality Police has some mercenary Iranian agents of America and Israel who killed Mayesha Ameni and incited the people of Iran.

“ … not a dime's worth of damage done inside why because the American Embassy compound was protected by Iranian Military Police …” 4:15 Yes Mr. Wallace, you and Jimmy Carter administration undermined the one who protected you, and you were rooting for the guy who took them hostage less that a year later. But God may bless President Nixon. Rarely seen video of former President of the United States, Richard Nixon (30 Jul 1980) who arrives in Cairo for the Shah of Iran's funeral: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2TEn6OOf7Otrbs

Be careful what you ask for ...

[@delawaresurf5422]

Ironic that the us embassy was left untouched at the filming of this report after rioting.

[@ZMAN_420]

60 minutes and Mike are just GREAT! Show is still on what, 50 some years later. I think this show started b 4 SNL In 1975?

[@VNExperience]

In the late 60s. Yeah, 60 Minutes is exceptionally well produced and consistently delivers high quality content on interesting and important topics

Wow 1978

[@Kingkhan-ru6pj]

Currently, Iran would have become one of the richest countries in the world during Khamini's rule, but the American sanctions are responsible for not being able to do so. Iran is not so corrupt like our country. Iranian leaders have a tendency to hold their heads high that our leaders do not. And what can I say about Shah, he was the broker of the westerners. If sanctions are still eased, it won't take long for Iran to turn around

[@t0dd707]

well, this interview didn't age well.

[@gremlinmurphy4823]

There is everywhere do pressure for the women.

The Middle East has been people protesting for better lives, but ending up with lives much worse unfortunately

[@kaydenletts8017]

Now those same students are crawling back to the shah when the Islamic “Republic” tortured a woman to death just because she wore her hijab the wrong way.

Why would anybody want to fight over a country I mean like you take your lives for a country how about taking your lives for Jesus

[@esctoplist1162]

Because Jesus is a fairytale honey

[@najmaalikhan]

If you didn't have a country love you wouldn't be preaching to people about Jesus, sitting in the comfort of your home. If you want to be hermit then you don't need country you or you can just be like nomad or gypsy and settle yourself anywhere. The world doesn't work this way.

[@Cuinn837]

Many Iranians are becoming interested in Jesus these days. Their leaders have caused them to be fed up with Islam.

[@cobaltbomba4310]

Irony is, some protestors in Iran are calling for the same American embassy to come to Iran to restore old humiliation and misery, bloody fools!
