Malka was also a coward. In Stephen Kinzer's book, "All the Shah's Men", the source of power and confidence that propelled the Shah to go back to Iran during the '53 coup was credited to his twin sister, Ashraf (From Wikipedia) As historian Stephen Kinzer's book All the Shah's Men recounts, "Ashraf was enjoying life in French casinos and nightclubs when one of Roosevelt's best Iranian agents, Asadollah Rashidian, paid her a call. He found her reluctant, so the next day a delegation of American and British agents came to pose the invitation in stronger terms. The leader of the delegation, a senior British operative named Norman Darbyshire, had the foresight to bring a mink coat and a packet of cash. When Ashraf saw these emoluments, Darbyshire later recalled, "her eyes lit up" and her resistance crumbled."[ Ashraf also made a lot of money in the heroin and prostitution trade. It was common knowledge that she owned numerous high class whore houses in Tehran's Red-Light District, or "Shahre Noe". I'm glad that the writer of this piece, Dean Hederson mentions that the revolution was hi-jacked by the Mullahs in collusion with Western intelligence. As a kid, watching the whole thing happen from the sidelines, the only time I recall seeing religious people involved was during non-violent marches and protests, and the aftermath of Black Friday, when a neighbor showed me pictures from the morgue of the mangled faces and bodies of those shot and killed at Zhaleh Square. Most of the fighters in the street were young Fedayeen, or as they called themselves, Cherik e Fedayee. No wonder they all disappeared.. The Mullah Mafia had them all killed. By the time Khomeini died in '88, tens of thousands of the secular left, who fought the Shah's forces in street battles, or were the unfortunate captives and recipients of SAVAK's Nazi torture practices -- and later the Mullah's victims -- vanished. And now Iran's stuck with the Supreme Leader... An old Iranian told me, first the West made sure that Iran became a right-wing authoritarian police state, and now they're fine with it being a right-wing authoritarian theocratic police state, so that it will never be able to chart it's own way under a secular democratic state, what Chomsky calls, the threat of a good example. --------------------- |
