Instead, we should seek the root causes, the most important of which is the 1953 kudeta against Mosaddeq by CIA.

To refer to the Persian Gulf, at 4:59 you used the highly disputed name "Arabian gulf". Subsequently, you brought the excuse that "At the time the Brits were using it that way", in 19th century. I believe you need to get your historical accounts revisited. The earliest official account of using "Arabian", instead of "Persian", to refer to that body of water was in 1955 by Sir Charles Belgrave, a British advisor to the ruler of Bahrain. Your excuse sounded more of an apology to use the disputed term instead of the original and historical one, "Persian Gulf".

Exactly. As I mention elsewhere, there’s plenty of British maps of the Middle East from the 19th and early 20th century in the web and one cannot find a single one that uses ‘Arabian Gulf’ instead of Persian Gulf. Until Arab countries from the Arabian peninsula emerged in the 20th century and became rich there was in fact no rationale for such a conservative people as the Brits to go against a 25 century old naming convention and starting using for the Persian Gulf a name that was in fact sometimes used for the Red Sea since antiquity.

It's the Persian Gulf and has always been the Persian Gulf. Saddam had plans to disintegrate Iran and saw it as a Nationalist won with a great opportunity as Iran's army collapsed. Shah of Iran was obsessed with the potential communist/socialist competition and utilised the Islamic front as a way to stabilise the Monarchy and advocated freedom of Press for this movement but it backfired.

Pretty sure the Ottoman Empire declined due to new trade routes by Europeans that basically cut them off. Ottomans used to be part of the Silk Road that connected all three continents, however as Europeans found a different trade route via sea to Asia and Africa they essentially cut off the Ottomans. They can now trade directly with Asia and Africa instead of going through Ottoman-controlled provinces. Also, the Europeans had a whole continent to loot and plunder with the discovery of the Americas due to their trying to find these new trade routes via sea. This basically made them outpace the Ottomans.

The "white" in "White Revolution" was chosen against the two so called reactionary entities of red (the communists) and black (the Islamic clergy). The Shah used to call the clergy "black" reactionaries and the communists, the "red" reactionaries. His designation of "White Revolution" was not based on any presumed racial identity. If we look a little further, we see that it was the alliance of the "red" and the "black" that eventually brought down his monarchy.

You have a great deal of knowledge about Iran but you may not be right about Perseus. Perseus and the Persians are not related in any way, mythically or etymologically. Their names sounding similar is just a coincidence. Perseus' name comes from the verb πέρθω, (“to destroy”) literally meaning “the destroyer”. Pars and Parsi were mentioned in Shahnameh of Ferdowsi. Pars was the capital of Cyrus the Great (Kourosh). Iran is composed of many ethnic groups and Parsis are one of them. Thanks a lot for your outstanding lecturs.

If I may, I have two "minor" remarks and one comment: *) Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani was not a president, as you mentioned, during the US negotiating the release of the Americans held at the US Embassy and the Iranian Foreign Ministry, but later, he became the fourth President. *) During the military operation of the US trying to release the held Americans by a military operation, the helicopters and the C-130s were to land at Tabas desert to have helicopters ground refueled, not arial refueled. *) With the knowledge you got to have about the long history of the US political policies, I really wonder to hear you saying that the USA and Iran might have a good "relations" in the near future! I think that the US cannot have any "good relations" with any country if it is not the dominant, and the Iranian current government cannot have any "good relations" if it is not equal.

*) The leftist radicals who stormed the US embassy in 1980 were not motivated initially with taking revenge on 1953 Coup ; They were most likely intrigued by Soviet embassy to do this as even Ahmadinejad later points out.

Thank you so much for sharing your time and experiences to describe the sociopolitical situations in Iran. I enjoyed your talk as well as your marvelous sense of humor. However, there are few points that I would like to draw your attention to. Azerbaijan name roots back to the "Zoroastrianism" era of Iran (around1000 BCE). "Āzar" or Athur in Iranian language meant fire and baijan, originally "Padegan" meant Guardian or Protector. Therefore, Athur Padegan, refers to the protectors of the ever lasting fire or the Satrap (governor) of the area with the burning natural gas along the edge of Yanar Dag hill about 15 ML north of Baku that has been continuously burning since ancient times.Genetic study of Turkish speaking Iranian “Azeries”, based on the polymorph markers on Y chromosome shows that Azerbaijanis have been native inhabitants of the region and all belong to a common genetic pool which includes the present-day Kurds, the Caucasus and Northern Iranians population among the other Iranians. The first people to name themselves and their counterparts as Türk were the Gök Türks (Gokturks). Gokturks controlled a vast area stretching from Eastern Europe to the northern China. But never entered the west of the Caspian see and never occupied Azerbaijan. Turkification of the Azerbaijan language occurred after the conquest of Iran by the Seljuq Turks in the 11th century AD and the imposition of Turkish language to north west of Iran and Turkey was predominantly by the process of elite dominance, i.e. by the limited number of invaders who left only weak genetic trace in modern populations of the region. By 1200 AD, after the death of the last Seljuq, the Seljuq power ended everywhere except in Anatolia (Turkey). Therefore, so called Aziris are not Turk! 1-Genetika. 2013 Oct;49(10):1221-8. Assessment of patrilineal gene pool of the Iranian Azeris.

Wait, Athur Pedegan??? Arthur PENDRAGON??? Do you think its all connected somehow?

Just amazing ❤

Very informative. I would add that Pashto and Dari are part of the Iranic languages (which include Kurdish, Farsi and Baluchi).

As an Iranian, this is a speech that mixes truth and false together, especially for the last part. He doesn't know exactly what is happening in IRAN and it seems all of his information comes from the media. and the most of media is biased. Right now we have two different Iran, one is what is physically in the middle east and one is what is in social media.
