In a December 1970 article entitled “Without a Numbered Bank Account” published by SKIING magazine, the readers are told the Shah of Iran proves to be “an egalitarian monarch…by waiting patiently in the lift lines” at the St. Moritz resort despite other elite guests such as “the young Aga Khan, who is not so patient and gets up mountains by personal helicopter”…

Of course, in today’s textbooks, the late Shah of Iran is either not mentioned at all (see Index of WESTERN CIVILIZATION (2016) by Cengage Learning) or misidentified as his father and mischaracterized as follows:

In the 1960s and 1970s, “Iranians labored with legacies of foreign intervention and corrupt rule at the hands of the shah, Reza Pahlavi, a Western-friendly leader installed during a 1953 military coup supported by Britain and the United States” (see p. 790, WESTERN CIVILIZATION (2017) by W.W. Norton)…

The history professors hired by W.W. Norton to write this college textbook obtained their doctorate degrees in history at University of California-Berkeley and Harvard University, respectively.  Putting aside discussions about the Shah and alleged corruption leading to claimed mass misery, is it possible that Berkeley and Harvard miseducate their doctorate students by NOT teaching them the basics -- that the last shah of Iran was named Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, not Reza Pahlavi… and that since he ascended the throne in 1941, he could not have been “installed” in 1953?…

Even questionable Wikipedia noted that Mohammad Reza Pahlavi was “the Shah of Iran from 16 September 1941 until his overthrow by the Iranian Revolution on 11 February 1979”…

[pic pinterest: Iran’s Minister of Education Dr. Farrokhroo Parsa was executed in 1980 by the Islamo-Marxists rebels and usurpers … in her last words, Dr. Parsa wrote: "I am a doctor, so I have no fear of death. Death is only a moment and no more. I am prepared to receive death with open arms rather than live in shame by being forced to be veiled. I am not going to bow to those who expect me to express regret for fifty years of my efforts for equality between men and women. I am not prepared to wear the chador and step back in history" (source D. Kadivar in “Iranian” online publication 8-Mar-2011)… NOTE the Marxists or Progressives in the West are now normalizing the hijab for women in the West… history repeats itself when history is not taught…for educational purposes only]
