Funny thing how the people of Iran got rid of the Shah cause he wa a little brutal to his enemies.
This bunch are brutal to all.
Hopefully the people rise up there.
Well, actually, he was a lot brutal, and his government was very corrupt .... which is why they were justified in wanting to get rid of him.
