What Drove Iran To Revolution | Middle East Documentary


In Iran, the Ayatollahs maintain a theocracy with an iron grip; but huge segments of its society wish to see a liberalisation of its society. To understand how Iran could function as a chaotic yet competent state, we have to delve into its 19th and 20th century history, a period in which the country experienced the lowest of lows – famine,…

  1. You are ignorant of iran and its realities yea there are revolutions taking place every day and these revolutions are the continuation of 1979's unexamplary islamic revolution yup some two dozen Westoxicated and provoked "Colourist" sabotages and thugs make hue and cry sometimes through your censorship propagandists media outlets that doesn't matter

  2. I love how he shows Mossadegh when it says strong leaders .. instead of Reza Khan.. who is literally the founder of the modern Iranian state .. I like your content but you are definitely biased against the Pahlavis

  3. Islamic Colonialism, that is when Islam invades and seizes non Islamic territories by power and force no one wants to really take notice. But boy, if it is European Colonialism with a Christian element attached, it is the scandal of all human history. Europeans are conveniently brought before the whipping post of a deliberately misrepresented and distorted history in order to hide the unpleasant truths of the evil and dark histories of their own tribes. This trick and sleight of hand was contrived and executed as a political and economic strategy to advance its own hidden and evil plan for international socialism and while it has ultimately failed to do this nevertheless the tactic of rewriting history for nefarious political purposes been used very successfully to stir up false hopes of any given society in the task of its own national reclamation. Europhobia and Europhobic grievance are the base of today's national and international reformation. So far, it ain't working out too well as the turmoil of nations rages on with no peaceful end in sight. 😅

  4. The title if the video is false. Iran had many revolutions, the revolution of 1979 that resulted in the Islamic Republic wasn't simply an Islamic revolution, it later became that. It started as a revolutionary anti-imperialist movement for economic justice and national independence. Before that there where two revolutions, the islamisation of Iran during the abbasid era and the re-establishing of Persian culture and language that followed it. Revolutions come from social forces en-masse pushing society and history in a certain direction. Pahlavi and Mossadeq where not revolutions. They where preludes to 1979. The revolution wasn't against the shah, that's a simplification and doesn't explain the dynamics of history. It was a revolution against Anglo-American imperialism for independence and Iranian agency.

  5. Armchair Historian sent me. This was a very educational overview of modern Iranian history. I hope they can manage to find peace both internally and with their neighbors one day soon. Thank you very much for the video!
    God be with you out there, everybody. ✝️ 🙂
