The Agony Our Iran is being put through is very painful

by amirparvizforsecularmonarchy on

Her film was great, that she would, ironically, have to endure prison for a movie shows how truthful the subject material for her film is.

So what happens next?

No one can really tell.  No people can put up with a situation like this, but the USA and others just love this Islam for Iran and if they could get ther own mullahs or mek in power then they would be even more delighted.  Anything to keep Iranians subjugated and regressive so it is not a viable progressive competitor on the world stage like it was durng the time of the late shah.

Monarchy with out more unity is going to be of little help.

And Democracy for Iranians is divisive and impractical. 

To be represented by iranian leadership that has irans interests at heart and that the people will unite behind will be close to impossible with the level of foreign domination on Iran.

These realities point to a future that wll create another dictatorship, not freedom like it existed under the late shah, unless iranians can be humble enough to accept their own mistakes, change and support their own traditions and culture above islam, again like the late shah did.

The Agony Our Iran is being put through is very painful, but the world led by the usa wouldn't have it any other way.
