"Those who fail to learn from past mistakes are doomed to repeat them." I wish we Iranians would someday learn that worshiping people would turn them to devils. The Shah, Khomeini, and thousands of other dictators throughout the history are examples. And those who still worship the Shah either have the memory of a fruit fly or have no clue that there were unfortunate people like those in the pictures struggling with their lives under the rule of Alahazrat Aryamehr. It's sad to see that the history is repeating itself, and we never learn.

Nice to see the opulance of the dictator in contrast to the poverty of real Iranians. To the "bot parast" who idolize HIM, and to those free thinkers who rightously hate even his memory, I say it is good to remember so the history does not repeat itself. These pictures tell a story. Lets watch the mistakes and evils of the past and remember.
