Oh My, How Times Have Changed: Iran In The 70′s

Someday, when the Islamists take over the U.S. (and believe me they will based on birthrates) one will look at pictures of American Girls dressed similarly and compare them to the burkas they will be wearing.

Wake up people

WORD.

Its funny how even though obviously dated those pictures look far more modern than any picture taken yesterday in Iran.

[...] I was a teenager, Iran was a moderate country where women had equal rights. It was the most modern and developed country in the Islamic world. And a powerful ally of the United States. Which is something the leftists hated because it allowed [...]

You should do a ‘iran: before and after islam’ feature.

Yeah, boy, I’ll tell you, things were really looking terrible under the Shah weren’t they? Good thing ole Jimmah Carter came along and fixed things so the Ayatollah could improve things for everyone, especially women and girls. After all, what kind of girl wants to be, you know, learning stuff and all. Better they should be treated as property than to get an education.

S’okay, I’m sure they’ve all been beheaded by now…

Now they have progressed all the way to stoning women. The Shah was the best thing to happen to that country. His wife still has a current website going.

Good thing you put that “sarcasm” caveat in there. Some liberal clown might have thought you were serious.

I hope you all know that the Shah was forcefully imposed on the Iranian people by western powers in response to a democratically elected leader who pledged to nationalize Iranian Oil.
Just some food for though.

Which makes his usurpation by a thuggish, paranoid, pre-medieval theocracy that turned Iran into the 10th century with cell phones and satellite TV all the more reasonable? One day when you’re a big boy you’ll learn that some ideas don’t naturally follow others.

“The Shah was the best thing to happen to that country.”

Sure, if you weren’t one of the people arrested by SAVAK (secret police) for no reason and tortured, raped or killed in his prisons. SAVAK gang-raped wives in order to extract confessions from their husbands, and tortured children in front of their parents to the same end.

I have no love for the Islamists, but it’s a revisionist history fantasy to pretend everything was hunky-dory before they came along. Just because Iranian people dressed like Americans in the 1970s doesn’t mean they enjoyed the same rights or freedoms.
