Iran of the Pahlavi era was a holiday resort for the heads of the Zionist regime
The conditions of Iran were not good before the victory of the Revolution. The people did not have a sense of responsibility towards the country, the enemies had dominated our country, Iran had become the stronghold of Israel, a place where leaders of the Zionist regime would rest: they would come and plunder our resources and use our country to further their political and financial goals. The day when certain Arab countries decided to use oil against Israel, the Shah of Iran relieved the minds of the Zionists by saying that he would provide them with oil. This was the situation of Iran at that time and nobody was hopeful.
