10. The main reason that The Shah was overthrown was that he
like our Dear Leader became more powerful to the point of Absolute Ruler. Over the years he steadily seized power away from the government and ruled a corrupt cabal of insiders. No, "the rank and file" lived in abject poverty while those CONNECTED to The Shah lived an opulent lifestyle.

I doubt that you would find anyone save for some EXILES here in the USA that would wish to go back to the totally corrupt monarchy of The Shah of Iran. :puke:
