    Monarch is to prevail over Monastry (as they must consistent with fasting and confidence prayer).

    Mossadegh the democratically elected leader who preceded Reza Pahlavy was ousted by the CIA because he took back Iran's oil industry which was primarily in the hands of the British, Americans and French and nationalised it. Before the nationalisation Iran was getting only a miniscule percentage of oil revenues. British Petroleum got disgustingly wealthy on the back of Iranian oil. The US was able to take back control of Iranian oil reserves once the pro-West, anti-communism Reza Pahlavi was reinstated following a CIA backed coup for which Reza Pahlavi was paid a million dollars. Laughable. Iran's coffers overflowed with the 1973 oil crisis and instead of investing in infrastructure and in other areas which would have built a sound foundation for Iran's economy, he invested hugely in arms and weapons which were imported from the US. Pahlavi's was to make Iran a super-power in the Middle East. His white revolution did not bring any advantages to rural Iran. Mohammad Reza's regime was very corrupt and his secret service SAVAK (trained by the CIA) committed huge human rights violations - torturing and killing dissidents. These people were/are disgustingly wealthy. Pahlavi's daily meals used to be flown in on the Concorde from Paris - every single day. While 51 percent of Iran's population was poverty stricken and there was a drought ravaging the country the man celebrated 2500 years of the monarchy by organizing the most expensive party in recorded world history. No Iranians were invited and all the contracts for the preparations went to European countries - mostly France. It was appalling. Reza Pahlavi and Farah worked for the emanicipation of women ? Farah was the Pahlavi's third wife. He divorced his first two wives because they could not bear him sons. Emanicipated indeed. Also did he even know that the sex of the child is determined by the chromosome configuration of the male and not by that of the female ? Regardless how is this progressive in any sense ? The family fled Iran not because they thought they were doing their country a favour. They ran because they feared for their lives. The Pahlavi line was founded by a non-aristocratic Manzadarin soldier in 1925. So much for all those who believe in dynastic monarchies. The Pahlavis are not descendants of Cyrus by any means. They are arrivistas. An inept ruler Mohammad Reza was. He was also notorious for his infidelities, for his insatiable sexual appetite and for his penchant for tall, blue-eyed European women. The family in exile....Farah lives in a luxurious Paris apartment with live-in domestic help. She has a car, a chauffeur and a body-guard. Valentino sends her his private jet so that she fly to Milan to attend a fashion show. The family has a huge fortune tucked away in Swiss banks and other tax-free havens. Some exile. She prefers to be addressed as Shahbanou and spends her time rmaintaining her "image" as an "empress" . These people are privileged and their lives cannot be compared to those of the simple folk who either stayed back in Iran or had to flee the Khomeini regime. As for losing children to suicide - I completely empathise. But worse things happen to ordinary people. A democratically elected government is the answer to Iran's troubles. But a constitutional monarchy is completely unnecessary. Monarchies are an anachronism. All they do is to allow thoroughly unremarkable people to do thoroughly unremarkable work and strut around calling themselves prince, princesses and other rubbish. The very fact that Reza Pahlavi, the son of Mohammad Reza goes around using honorifics like Shahzade, Prince and Imperial Highness is questionable and absurd. The bloke does not have a full-time job and lives off family wealth. He spends all his time delivering lectures, giving interviews and hosting press conferences....these people are entitled parasites.
