"President Carter was not aware of the dangers that these Mullahs may provide for the world security and he didn't back our Shah too. I agree with you!"

President Carter was an idiot. He came in saying we had to get over our "inordinate fear of Communism" then 3 years later expressed shock at the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.

I am sorry his perfidy lost Iran to the Mullahs. Iranians deserved better.

Thanks for your kindness and nice sentiments.
In fact, you can't find any pro-western people these days in Middle East but we, Iranians, would like to say that WE HAVE LOVED YOU SINCE YOU HELPED US during our constitutional battles in 19th century.
I know that an American teacher died in those battles while fighting along side his Iranian friends there and his grave is respected now for many people in the city of Tabriz, north west of Iran.
Btw, the name of the place you were talking about is Persepolis.
Yes, the late Shah of Iran held a great ceremony in 1971 there to show how Iran is great.
