Since the revolution, Iran has endured and survived brutal sanctions from the West whose intention is to overthrow the theocratic regime in Tehran and replace it with a Shah Pahlavi style puppet dictatorship ready to pander to the whims of western countries.
Andre Viltchek says that after WWII, the West had one huge ‘problem’ on its hands: all three most populous Muslim countries on Earth namely Egypt, Iran and Indonesia were clearly moving in one similar direction, joining group of patriotic, peaceful and tolerant nations. They were deeply concerned about the welfare of their citizens, and by no means were they willing to allow foreign colonialist powers to plunder their resources, or enslave their people. In the 1950s, the world was rapidly changing, and there was suddenly hope that the countries that were oppressed and pillaged for decades and centuries by first the European and then North American geopolitical and business interests, would finally break their shackles and stand proudly on their own feet. Several Communist countries in Eastern Europe, but also newly liberated China, were actively helping with rapid de-colonising process in Africa, Asia, the Middle East and other parts of the world.
