Iran’s exiled Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi was splattered with red liquid on Thursday as he left a building in Berlin.

Pahlavi had just departed a news briefing, during which he criticized the ceasefire between the United States and Iran, when the incident occurred outside Germany’s federal news conference building.

He appeared unhurt by the liquid coating the back of his blazer and neck, and waved to his supporters before he got into a car that drove away. Police said the liquid appeared to be tomato juice.

The alleged perpetrator, whose name was not released in line with German privacy rules, was immediately detained by police.

Lucky he wasn’t shot. He should be more careful.

Thankfully it was tomato juice, but prayers for his safety.

Remember: Germany is already a muslime country. Why should this come as a surprise?

Why are we not hearing more news of him and his government in exile? He could be the means that causes the regime change from within. In order to garner internal Iranian support, he must not be seen as being supported by the US but supported by a country that is part of the Shia crescent, Pakistan or India for example. Whichever country does must be seen by Iranians as unfriendly to the U.S. to make him more acceptable.

They need to find the Nazi that threw the paint and drag his Nazi ass down to Dachau.

Good post. I have been wondering exactly the same thing. Your analysis is spot on.

I know many in Iran still harbor bad thoughts about his father, but he seemed to be the perfect compromise choice. He has to be more acceptable to the general population than the IRGC.

Just really surprised here at how little he is mentioned.

Maybe I’m over thinking it, but isn’t that more of a leftist tactic than a Muslim tactic?

He is a paper tiger after talking tough for decades. Disappointing.

Cannot believe the former Crown Prince has no security or completely incompetent security.

He is lucky to still be alive.
