Dear Mr. Milani, you have briefly mentioned of Shah’s role in international financial markets, giving $1.2Bn to different countries. I think you need to investigate more on this matter. I remember at that period there was lots of articles in economist journals on danger of financial capital of Iran and Arabs as the The entry of Iranian and Arab financial capital into the international financial capital market caused a decrease in the interest rate of international financial capital and Iran revolution and occupying the American embassy, then Iran- Iraq war, then occupying Kuwait by Iraq and finally making Saudi Arabia preventing financial market. Solved this problem. What do you think about this?
