“My father left Iran voluntarily to avoid bloodshed,” says Prince Reza Pahlavi, the son of the deposed late shah of Iran. “He said, ‘I'm a king. A king doesn't build his throne on the blood of his own people. If the nation today wants me out, I will leave. I will not turn my guns on them.’" Pahlavi’s father was the last king of Iran. Mohammad Reza Pahlavi brutally suppressed opposition and showered friends with lavish wealth. In 1979, he left Iran amid rising political tension. And a hardline cleric, Ayatollah Khomeini, returned from exile to lead a revolution.  #iran #irannews #iranhistory #iranrevolution
