However well-intentioned, these voices are ignorant of what brought about the Iranian revolution and why it turned out the way it did.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the Iranian people want to see the ruling theocracy overthrown, they do not want to return to the past, evident in one of the popular chants in different protests in the past three years, \u201cdown with the oppressor, whether the Shah or the Leader (Khamenei)\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In truth, Khomeini was the rightful <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-us-canada-36431160\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">heir to the Shah<\/a>. Half of a century of absolute repression under the Pahlavis destroyed any chance of democracy taking shape in Iran. Democratic movements and organizations were decimated by the Shah\u2019s notorious secret police, SAVAK. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thousands of dissidents languished in prisons under torture. So, when the Shah was overthrown, Khomeini and the mullahs stepped into a power vacuum. The crown was replaced with the turban.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Past 12 months signal a turbulent road ahead for Iran\u2019s regime\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Qjx5hFurZsQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As Iran nears the 44th anniversary of the 1979 Revolution, the mullahs\u2019 regime is engaging in mass propaganda.
