Absolute injustice topped Pahlavi regime’s power
The Qajar kings, the Pahlavi kings - we do not know well about the previous ones, and we have nothing to do with them - those who were at the top of the government, and those who lived as kings in this country and at the head of the country were richer than all the people of the nation. How is this possible? Is this possible except through oppression? They took possessions of the people away from them. Wherever there was a good property, an attractive estate or a beautiful mansion, Reza Khan took it for himself and made a tremendous fortune. He even took possession of some areas of the country as a whole! His successors were the same. Their power was headed with absolute injustice. As one moved down the pyramid of power, this injustice continued to persist and spread. In that system, if possible, anyone would practice oppression on others. It was not hindered. There were no impeders in place. Those systems were like that.
