Reasons for the birth of Islamic Republic of Iran?
June 30, 2005
I. Lack of political freedoms & existence of the atmosphere of political suffocations & oppresions by the Imperial Regime. Amazingly, Shah had a double standard! He jailed all the Intellectuals & Leftists, but @ the same time, Shah allowed Clerics & Muslim to freely do political activities. Shah left the Cleric's hands open! Shah himself was a Muslim with no respect for Secularism & much respect for Clerics & Islam! This came back to hunt him & destroy him!
II. Creation of a one party (Rastakhiz Party) totalitarian System by Shah of Iran.
III. Existence of a system of Favoritism, Corruption & Social Inustice.
IV. Participation of All political parties, banned by the Shah to join hands to overthrow the Imperial Regime & excelerate the process of Democracy in Iran.
V. Cooperation of All political parties of Iran with Islamists & Khomeini, simply as an Alternative!
VI. Cooperation of the leaders of (Whores of Opposition) including the back then Top 2:
Tudeh Communist Party
National Front (Jebhe Meli)
and now Top 4:
Tudeh Communist Party
National Front (Jebhe Meli)
Fedayeen Khalq Aksariyat (Marxist)
Nehzate Azadi (Nationalist Islamist)
who betrayed Iran & worked with Mullahs for future positions, power & money!
VII. Massive protests by the illiterate masses of Iran who assumed that they will overthrow the Imperial Regime & create a Democratic Regime!
VIII. Dragging the illiterate masses of Iran into the streets by the hands of Intellectual Left (Tudehists, Jebhe Meli, others).
IX. Cowardly escape of Shah of Iran from Iran. The Ship Captain fled, instead of stay & fight for Iran.
X. Cowardly escape of Pahlavi Dynasty from Iran (as usual & same as 1953), rather than stay their own grounds.
XI. Commander in chief escaped, so Statesmen & Military lost moral.
XII. Treason of All Imperial Generals except a couple. They combinely signed a famous paper & handed the Imperial Forces to Khomeini.
XIII. Cowardly escape of Imperial Statesmen to the west.
XIV. Dr. Shapour Bakhtiar (prime minister) & Immortal Guards & a few other Military personnel & civilians were the only people who stayed & defended Iran until the final moments that it became obvious that the battle was lost.
XV. The West (USA, UK, etc.) have decided that Shah had to go. Shah was becoming too powerful in OPEC (as the head of OPEC) & too strong militaristically, also he refused to sell cheap oil anymore! They assumed that Shah could become a military threat backing up his possible plans to stop the flow of the oil to the west by taking over the whole Middle East in a month! That was not far off of reality because back then, Iran was capable to do so!
XVI. Carter's direct policy of Human Rights which he forced in Shah's throat, instead of backing him up against the Islamist Terrorists! Carter's Human Rights policy became Iran's main nightmare! Carter was also responsible for not supporting his major Ally, Shah. In a way, Carter had lost Iran. Carter & his foreign policy caused America to destroy a great friend (Imperial Iran) & create a new powerful enemy (Islamic Republic of Iran). Carter & CIA were directly responsible for creation & expantion of the Neo Islamist Fundamentaism in the world lead by Khomeini.
XVII. Carter's policy of creating a Green Belt (Islamist Regimes) around the old USSR to help fighting the communists. Eventually Communism got destroyed but a new enemy was reborn & named Islam! This policy backfired in the West's face!
XVIII. USA abandoned Iran rather than support Iran against the Islamists.
XIX. UK helped the Islamist Reactionaries rather than supporting Iran!
XX. West (France, etc.) supported the Islamist Terrorists rather than supporting Iran!
XXI. Iran's old generation, Monarchist or Anti Monarchist, both are responsible for disaster of 1979. Monarchists, because they were not worthy to defend Iran. They escaped or betrayed Iran. Anti Monarchists, because they helped creating the IRI. Both Fathers of 1979 on either side, have helped destroy Iran. Islamist Revolutionary or Imperial Generals, both destroyed Iran.
XXII. Government of each nation, is a representative of the people of that nation. Iranians deserve IRI, until they prove different!
XXIII. All opposition groups helped creating the Revolution & creating the IRI & then the Revolution killed all her children one by one! Now all opposition groups are fighting the IRI. Even the 4 Whores of Opposition:
Tudeh Communist Party
National Front (Jebhe Meli)
Fedayeen Khalq Aksariyat
Nehzate Azadi
with a history of opportunism, shifting sides & political prostitution, are also begining to see that fighting the IRI is the only choice!
XXIV. The Mullahs, Islamists & Muslim were all responsible for creation of IRI.
XXV. Finally, the lack of political & general education, caused the masses of Iran to pick up an axe & to cut their own roots & chances of prosperity.
Conclusion
Khomeini with the help of opportunist intellectuals, created Islamic Republic of Iran, revived global Islamist fundamentalism & created the Neo Islamist Terrorism in the world. Islam as a new enemy has replaced Communism! Khomeini is the father of Neo Islamism.
Iran of today, is a world apart from Iran of 1979. The only people who still believe that they can easily return Iran to where it was going on 1979, are simpleton Fools! Scattered Bands of Monarchists are amongst these Fools! Today's Iran is way off course from where it was going 26 years ago. Iran of today, is a Theocratic Despotic Regime, a major regional & Asian power, head of global Islamist Terrorism, the greatest state responsor for all major Islamist Terrorist Groups of Middle East, a powerful military which produces many of her own wepons from vehicles all the way to missiles!
EU, Russia & China are also supporting IRI. The IRI is a great trade partner for all three. They would politically avoid USA to invade IRI.
Today's Iran is a sore eye for United States! The United States cannot compromise with her, because USA does not compromise with Terrorism, set aside dealing with the Central Nerve of Terrorism! USA also cannot invade her, because America is already involved up to her neck in Afghanistan & Iraq! Besides, even if America could invade Iran, they still would prefer not to! Why? Because Islamic Republic of Iran is an extremely powerful military force, ran by many true Islamist Believers who will fight to death to protect Shiite Islam. This is not just another dictatorchip, but It is an ideological issue! This is Islam verses the West. Iran is a large, powerful & ideological nation & in case of a hypothetic US invasion, The Iranian Campaign will be so devastating, destructive & massive, that will make the Iraqi Campaign look like a Sunday School practice! An Iranian Campaign @ this moment will be a disaster & a Quicksand of death for American Troops!
So, Islamic Republic of Iran is like a Bad Marriage for United States! You cannot live with her & you cannot kill her! IRI has become a nightmare for USA! IRI does whatever she pleases to do & she does not care about how USA may feel about her actions! Right or wrong, on 1979 Khomeini built an ideology which today, it has become the Second Shiite Empire (after Safavid's Empire of Persia) & The Second Islamic Empire (after the Golden Age of Muhammedin Empire) in the globe! Now, United States of America has no other choice but to Deal with it, because this is only the begining! Islamic Republic of Iran, the sponsor of The Global Islamism is here to stay!
