@hmajd Btw the modern Pahlavist movement does not even represent most ex Muslim or anti Islam Iranians in real life.

@hmajd The only well known organized Iranian opposition are Reza Pahlavi which is a joke and MEK which is totally out of the question because of how the MEK sided with Saddam in the Iran Iraq war. That’s why IRI remained in power for so long, it’s the only serious option as bad as it is

You can hate the Islamic Republic regime all you want, you can want it replaced with a pro-west and pro-Israel secular regime all you want, but the truth is the only way that there will be regime change in Iran any time soon is with a massive ground invasion and a commitment of tens of thousands of US troops who will be fighting a few hundred thousand IRGC, Artesh and Basij troops to the death. It will not be Saddam's army collapsing as US troops marched north. That's just reality, and it appears that the Trump administration recognizes it. So everyone who is advocating for Trump to "finish the job" and bring about regime change should also admit that it will result in the deaths of many thousand Iranians and many hundreds if not thousand US troops, and may still only result in a civil war or an insurgency that will make Iraq look like a walk in the park. It's not about liking or disliking the regime: it's about reality. Any realist expert or credible analyst could've told Trump on February 28th that starting a war with Iran was insane and could be his undoing....

@hmajd In his final years, the Shah became pro Soviet and pro Palestinian too. He made massive deals with the USSR after nationalizing Iran’s oil in 1973. He also funded the PLO with millions of dollars in his final years.

Lmao indeed. The last "Imperial Persia" never officially recognized Israel (had a diplomatic interests mission in Tel Aviv but not official and full recognition). The Shah was critical of Israel at times, and his balancing act with the state was partly because of his antipathy toward Palestinian terror groups who he considered in the Soviet orbit (and thus anti-Iran). The last pogroms against Jews in Iran were all under "Imperial Persia". Look it up: throughout history but last in the early 20th Century. While most of Iran's Jews--over 100,000 before the revolution--emigrated, mostly to the US (along with millions of Muslims who also didn't want to live under an Islamic regime) it can be argued that the Jews that have remained (some 10,000) have suffered less oppression under the Islamic Republic than under "Imperial" Shahs throughout the history of the monarchy, with the exception, of course, under Cyrus the Great and Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the very last shah.

lmao

@SweiiZen @footballfanie @theiranimaestro It’s genuinely surprising that we have not seen even one defection from the IRGC or Artesh after over 3 months of war with the US.

@SweiiZen @footballfanie @theiranimaestro Similar to how a lot of Iranians in the 1980s also didn’t like the Islamic Republic regime but still sided with the Islamic Republic when Saddam’s Iraq was at war with Iran

Never been prouder to be an Iranian Muslim, Allahu Akbar!

@rozpersian To be fair, insane deluded modern Pahlavists don’t represent the silent majority of ex Muslim or anti Islam diaspora Iranians. Most ex Muslim and anti Islam diaspora Iranians I met irl were normal and sane.

@NF_KappaB_TF Reza Pahlavi doesn’t even represent the silent majority of anti Islam or ex Muslim Iranian diaspora in real life. His followers are terminally online people who are just super loud on the internet.

Middle Eastern version

😭😭😭

@FrappuccinoSlim @KlonnyPin_Gosch If anything the majority of Iranians before 1979 were more conservative than today. Compare Iran’s fertility rate in 1979 vs today for example.

@FrappuccinoSlim @KlonnyPin_Gosch There were no porn actresses in Iran before 1979. Iranian women could dress revealing but they were not porn actresses who drank in that crazy way. And it was only a small % of women who were from upper class families that dressed revealing before 1979.

An Iranian monarchist “feminist” bot celebrating Bonnie Blue’s pregnancy drinking might be one of the darkest things I’ve witnessed on here. Perfectly encapsulates the rot beneath the regime change rhetoric

@isaacrrr7 None of those women in the video are real Germans (native Germans). They’re all Iraqis migrants speaking Iraqi Arabic. And the argument wasn’t about hijab or drinks. It was because the woman behind did not want to be in the video. Stop spreading lies.

Un incidente impactante ocurrió en un autobús en Alemania… Una mujer con hiyab se enfureció, quejándose de que no le gustaba la ropa ni la bebida de la alemana. La alemana replicó airadamente: «Este no es un país islámico. Si no te gusta, vuelve a tu país».

@rozpersian Turkey has a similar population to Iran and the Turkish diaspora in Germany is 10-20x bigger than the Iranian diaspora in Germany.

Sir we original Arabs are white europeans like you sir, we are not like those other muslims sir, please accept us sir

Feminists unironically believe this
