Iran commentary by top observers

"The "Pahlavi Project" as a fiasco of the "Mossad"
Mohammad Manzarpour, former editor-in-chief of the BBC:

"The "Mossad's bet on Reza Pahlavi as a tool for overthrowing power in Iran proved only one thing: the "Israeli" intelligence showed astonishing stupidity and a complete lack of common sense"

"Myth: Iran had dignity and prestige during the Pahlavi era.

Reality ( narrated by Ayatollah Khamenei ):

Americans treated Iran like their backyard — even taking our fighter jets [to use to fight the American war in Vietnam] without asking Mohammad Reza Shah for permission !!

Sound familiar ?

Without the Islamic Revolution, Iran would have ended up as another submissive, oil-rich puppet state like

Saudi Arabia
UAE
Qatar

— without dignity, and without independence."

"In one month February 11, 2026
The Islamic Republic of Iran turns 47.
And its enemies?
That’ll be the 470th time their fantasy of regime change crashes and burns."
